The viability standard is BS. Leave a three month old kid in the corner and see how viable he is.

“While a small proportion of women who have abortions do so because of health concerns or fetal anomalies, the large majority choose termination in response to an unintended pregnancy.”

It seems to me women who have unintended pregnancies are to clueless or stupid to prevent getting pregnant and are the ones guilty of infanticide

OK, gotcha. Dropping the kid in the corner now and fencing him in with two dressers and a folding table.

How long should I leave him there?

A grown Rat isn’t viable, and we don’t abort them.

So I should let him out?

Why you say that stuff and then take it right back?

There’s a kid suffering here all because of crap you said.

You a sociopath.

I took it to mean viability shouldn’t be the standard. But maybe I’m wrong I was once.

Saw this U.K. stat earlier today: in the 10 years before abortion was legalized there, a grand total of 11 women died in “back alley” procedures. I would venture a guess that far more die at the hands of “diversity” every decade.

Moral concerns will remain, not matter what the law agrees to.

The big moral concern is when the choice to abort is because carrying the baby is something of “inconvience” due to (a) out of wedlock, (b) will interfere with career plans/abilities, or (c) financial hardship, then where was the moral sense of responsbiity that failed to conduct life so as to prevent the preganncy. Why is it the baby’s fault for a preventable failure by the mother and her sexual partner.

Well, don't leave us in suspense -- how long did your parents leave you there, bubblegummer?

“The viability standard is BS. Leave a three month old kid in the corner and see how viable he is.”

...not sure what your point is here?

Quickening is when a pregnant person starts to feel their baby's movement in their uterus (womb). It feels like flutters, bubbles or tiny pulses. Quickening happens around 16 to 20 weeks in pregnancy.

When the baby moves it's alive... that's the quickening. No abortion after that point. About 16 weeks.

King James Bible: (Acts 10:42), Paul's letters to Timothy (2 Timothy 4:1), and the First Epistle of Peter.

The living and the dead... the quick and the dead...

The reasons most frequently cited were that having a child would interfere with a woman's education, work or ability to care for dependents (74%); that she could not afford a baby now (73%); and that she did not want to be a single mother or was having relationship problems (48%). Nearly four in 10 women said they had completed their childbearing, and almost one-third were not ready to have a child.

If only we knew what caused pregnancy, maybe we could prevent unwanted pregnancies from happening. I guess I'm just a dreamer that such a thing could ever happen.

My point is I don’t see “viability” as anything more than a distraction. As if there is some line at which a life is life.

No one, ever, is viable without protections and sustenance.

You actually did this? Who's kid did you abandon?

How many women die now getting non-medical grade silicone shot into their bodies by non-doctors? Perhaps silicone injections should be free so that women don’t die getting more affordable back alley injections?

Thanks for the heads up, Farmerbob, but I get it. Plus, he doesn't need my feed as he is tireless and relentless.

If HG’s play is to lead with his chin then a little plinking is fun.. to mix metaphors. Passes my time, lol.

All in humor and good fraternity!
