I think Trump was correct. If you criminalize an activity there are generally penalties involved for engaging in it. That is how it works.

I agree. I think the idea that women are abortion victims is nonsense - they are perpetrators of murder, not victims.

To be honest, I can’t blame them. His performance was atrocious. When a group sees that degree of vulnerability, they jump on it. Republicans to the same to the libs. Maybe Donald was telling the truth, when he said, he mainly consults himself for planning strategy.

Good luck getting the left and empty headed middle to vote for you if thats you platform.

73% of women already dissaprove of Trump. This will make those numbers move. Just not the way you want.

I think Trump was correct, too, with certain conditions, my words, and wrote a long blurb on another thread an hour or so earlier.

Does anyone ever feel like God has abandoned those little babies and by extension pro-lifers who try to save them?

Sometimes I get to thinking God doesn't care even though I believe certain passages of scripture indicate support babies in the womb.

Mary's consent to be the mother of Jesus is the most powerful affirmation of life for the unborn.

From a strictly worldly point of view, if every woman procured an abortion, minus a few modern scientific advances, it would doom the human race.

In any case, I'm going to go on assuming pro-lifers are on the side of righteousness even though I personally feel defeated about it.

I agree, and given the gravity of what the illegal activity actually is, I don’t have one single problem with it.

I think some women are victims. Most have exercised their free will even though possibly under duress in the form of pressure from boyfriends, family, fear of taking care of a baby alone, fear of losing a career, reluctance to choose adoption even though it is the better choice than terminating the pregnancy.

Not killing babies is definitely the side of righteousness. I think more and more people are realizing it but the evil of abortion is depressing.

Women were not punished for abortion in pre-Roe v. Wade law, for a number of reasons. The biggest advocates for counting women as accomplices prior to Roe v. Wade were abortionists themselves: if women are considered accomplices, then it is harder for their uncorroborated testimony to be used to convict the abortionist. If punishment for the woman is just never on the table, then a woman’s testimony against an abortionist is more reliable.

The position of the overwhelming majority of pro-lifers has always been that a woman should not face punishment for an abortion. Most people who work with post-abortive women regard them as victims of this great scourge on our nation.

Abortion has to be made illegal first. Can trump overturn Roe vs wade?

I don’t agree with him, but judge Napolitano said that when abortion was a state issue and was illegal they only prosecuted the person who performed the abortion. Personally I think that is stupid. They arrest people who buy drugs as well as the seller.

Here is why they are doing this.

They are trying to do whatever possible to make a meme about Trumps war on women, to polarize women against Trump.

This whole janesville protestor spraying thing was an attempt.

The wole fake woman reporter that was not pushed thing was an attempt.

The megan kelly thing was such an attempt.

Its all phony fake crap and it isnt really working on the undecided.

Given his obvious confusion and incoherent defense of his views, does it not occur to you that Trump has adopted his pro-life stance strictly for political convenience.

He obviously hasn't given much thought to the subject and, if elected, has no intention of doing anything whatsoever to further the cause.
