Well if someone steals my car- do I get to steal someone else's car? do I get to create a NEW victim- just because now I have no car and no way to get to work and provide for my family?
stop with all the hyperbole..
it is terrible.. rape is HORRIFIC! but this is NOT a free license to BE HORRIFIC TO ANOTHER LIFE>.. no excuse.. NONE...
I must have replied to the wrong message, sorry this thread is moving too fast, and I'm watching the Shield on FX, good ep!
Execute the child, too?
Some don't even want emergency contraception which I am totally in favor rather than an abortion. I am a rape survivor and would not wish it on anyone. If that happened again to me, i'd probably have the baby but it'd not be a happy event and I would most definately give up the child for adoption with the express wish I NOT be contacted ever.
I'm saying the woman who is alive is the one whose wishes should be honored.
That's why the politics of it are bad. They didn't think it through. The object should be to overturn Roe v Wade and Doe v Bolton. It appeared as though Stenberg is going down shortly. Bad timing could cause Anthony Kennedy to take it upon himself to stave off the huns.
BTW, I am one of the Huns. :-}
As a matter of principle I think all abortion should be banned except for the life of Mom. But I don't come to that lightly, I understand the enormous courage a woman would have to have to carry that baby to term.
But once again, the politics and timing are bad. They allow your bro and his fellow travelers to shift the argument from 99.5% of abortions to 0.5% of abortions. It would have been better for the babies if they had just included the exceptions, found 5 justices to return it to the states and then allow democracy to take it's course.
Bush is right, but I still think the South Dakotans have done great. Everey state should do this until the Supremes have such a backlog that they don't know what to do.
Every town and vollage and city should passs similar ordinances. No juror should ever vote to convict someone for fighting against mass murder.
Unless you are a woman who has been raped and actually had the child, you have absolutely no way of knowing that is a fact.
>>I am against abortion except for rape and insect.
How many insects get raped, and where would they get an abortion anyway?
Grin Spell check only goes so far huh?
"Anyone who can only spell a word one way is limited" - Mark Twain
(There is a reason I have that memorized ;^)
I don't mind some States having no exceptions. It's just that you cannot seriously claim those State with a ban AND these exceptions are pro-abortion either - any more than Ford is pro-killing for manufacturing automobiles.
OK and if she wishes to kill her child because it is a result of rape, that is OK, right?
Those who choose adoption are hereos.
Actually he has not. The ones who haven't been paying a helluva lot of attention to Bush's stated positions are the ones who have been running off the reservation.
You on the other hand haven't been on the reservation to begin with, and your words against Bush carry little weight.
God brings GREAT things from tragedy... some of the most beautiful and awesome things in life are born of tragedy......
it is the strong and the righteous that seek the good of such things....
We set up a bidding process, where anybody can offer a pregnant rape or incest victim as much money as they want to carry the child until it is born. After all, if saving the life of the child is so important that we would commandeer an innocent woman's womb as an incubator for nine months, why shouldn't she be compensated?
What's unbelievable is that you are now trying to condemn someone for showing you just how beautiful all life, no matter how it came about, can be. All while you go on about how someone's feelings and mental state make it ok to destroy life. Any credibility you may have had is now completely gone.
How totally sane you sound in stating the totally obvious, which you did quite well. :)
What if you were raped and were married, had other children at home...a job....what if you had health problems and being pregnant would harm you? My point is there have to be exceptions for the women carrying the child.
