"Well, for starters, the legislation is not radical. To take a page from liberals, let’s cite Europe, where most European countries, even those with well-established left wing politics, ban abortion after 20 weeks. In some nations, it’s 12 weeks. Also, almost everyone is against late-term abortion. Solid majorities, especially women, also support a 20-week ban."

OK .....Just who is controlling debate here?

Is it like *babies* at 19 weeks are only "moderately killed"?

Then suddenly with the passage of another week killing them becomes a "radical" act?

No. The debate needs to be voiced in purely logical terms.
First - Is it human?
(If your answer is no, then you'd better be prepared to explain how and when it magically becomes one.)

Second - Is it alive?
(If it's not, then why are you going to the trouble of killing it?)

Live + Human + Killing = Murder

There is no "radical" position and you can't debate it. A tautology only has one side.

Donnelly, Manchin and Casey were the Dems who voted for this Bill. Murkowski and Collins voted against. Lots of vulnerable Red State Dems voted against, including newly elected DOUG JONES. The voter fraud, foisted on us at every turn by the Dems ,MUST BE STOPPED.

Well said. There is only one ontological moment in a human beings life - conception. Before that moment he/she didn’t exist. After that moment he/she exists. Even death is not an ontological moment for a human except in the mind of atheists.

Personhood begins at conception—NOT birth.
Birth is one day in the life of a person who is already nine months old.
