Will we see another zot?
Not only that, slavery was justified as a “necessary evil” as well. It was an accepted practice around the world and is still accepted in some cultures today.
If you really want to flip out a pro-abort, mention orphanages and the ability to sell babies. Suddenly, they manage to find compassion for the babies.
Now that you’ve explained yourself, I’ve posted much the same. Democrats claim they want to make abortion safe, legal, and rare. That is a marketing ploy, and it’s worked for them. We should use it against them.
Safe means we force abortion clinics to follow the same medical standards as every other health care provider. It sickens me to even say they’re health care providers, but that’s how abortion is currently being marketed to the masses. If they ARE health care providers, then they better follow the same safe operating rules, right? That’s a logically consistent view that would use the left’s own lies against them.
In regards to rare, the left really means at any time for any reason. That is NOT the mainstream point of view by any means. The vast majority of Americans do not favor unlimited abortion, but the vast majority are also not ready to lock up mothers who have abortions as though they’re murderers.
The left is very good at incrementally getting whatever it wants. We need to do the same, because it works. They also excel in deception to market their ideas. I don’t think we should resort to lies, but I agree that we can use their own marketing to beat them!
The “choice” is to have sex or not. Once you have another human on board, killing it is by definition “murder”.
Same liberal BS concerning abortion.....and it took him how long to conclude this???
Like you wrote, it’s not just a uterus once a baby is conceived. I don’t know of ANY pro-life person who wants to tell women what to do with their uteruses (uteri?). It’s all about the new life. That’s the game changer. That’s when it becomes society’s interest—the separate life that’s residing in the woman’s uterus. No matter what one feels about liberty, small government, etc., it’s that small life that changes everything.
How long had he been on FR??
Oh I understand it well
But given the prevailing and varied views of when “life” begins in America (and around the globe), and our political and judicial estblishment that has instituionalized this act as an individual, not societal, choice
you are never ever never going to make all abortion, at every stage of conception, ILLEGAL
We can educate evangelize, focus on legislation banning this act in the late2d/3rd trimester, and focus on legislation that protects citizens who refuse to participate in or subsidize it
what part of this do you not understand?
Since 01-07-2000.
You are a horse’s ass.
This is incoherent - what sort of case were you even trying to make?
It depends on whether it occurs naturally or whether it is human-assisted.
What part of FR’s position on Life is non-negotiable do you not understand?
WOW....I’m astonished!!!
That's a far left gimmick / talking point. Not what it is about by any means - just a distraction tactic.
It appears to me he is arguing against having to support the child(ren) he fathers - which in a roundabout way COULD mean he is ok with abortion.
But it SHOULD mean he is ok with abstinence - on HIS part.
Wow.
I saw this posted earlier, and I can’t believe a class of ‘00 (Carlos!) rode the lightning in such a spectacular way. I scanned the OP looking for a clever hook or something, and thought maybe I was missing something. I’m sorry to have seen it happen, and I’m sure you are too, but I don’t see that you had much of a choice in the matter.
As you say, murder’s not a matter for debate. And you just can’t be a FReeper if you’re OK with murder.
Stay well, Jim. And regards to the Missus.
There is no justification for murder of a child.
