"They were the hysterics, dearie, not me."

If you don't get a bit hysterical about someone being murdered, particularly a child, then you are either mentally challenged or a cold-hearted killer.

"Her husband and father of her other three children went to court to prevent her from 'russian roulette' with possibly removing the living childrens' mother from this earth."

Wonder how their relationship was after this incident. Probably not good.

Hobbes, ask the jerks that were saying it, not me. There are some pro-lifers that think the unborn ranks higher than the life of the mother. They are few and far between, and they are ugly.

[Bella_Bru]

Do you know anything about ectopic preganacies, or do you sing with the "they are never dangerous" choir?

BTTT

Do you even know what a sycophant is ?? It appears from your usage that you do not.

Thanks for the ping. Wow! Must be nice to get an award instead of a bill. For victory & freedom!!!

The last time a pro-life group came to the campus of the university I attend, they had those huge signs. The only thing that made me question them though was this: They were telling people that ectopic pregnancies pose NO THREAT whatsoever to a woman, and even if they do, the life of the unborn must be respected over the life of the mother. Sorry, mom's life is in danger, that's where I draw the line.

 

I'm with you on this one 100%, Bella.

 

When my mom was delivering my younger sister, it was discovered that the umbilical cord was wrapped around the baby's neck, each push choking her. This was a little over 30 years ago when something like this usually ended in death for one of those involved -- mom or babe.

 

It was a Catholic hospital, and next thing my dad knew a priest was entering the room to be ready to deliver last rites... to my mom. All efforts were going to be to save the baby, not the mother. My father adamantly demanded that all effort be given to save my mom, as the idea of him trying to raise two babies alone seemed ridiculous. He physically removed the priest from the room, and by a miracle both survived -- although my sister was a "blue baby" and had to spend time in an incubator. My dad then removed the family from the Catholic church, his longstanding irritation with some of their more illogical policies having finally reached a head.

How wonderful and loving of the priest. < /sarcasm>

I'm glad your dad put his foot down.

[Notwithstanding]

What is illogical about affording 2 people equal rights?
Babe and mom have equal rights.

This means that NEITHER of them can be directly and intentionally killed.

Mom can't be killed to save the baby, and baby can't be killed to save the mom. Its called human dignity and the premiere "right to life" (see founding documents of the USA).

Nothing illogical about that.

True. But they had made a choice, with my mother to be the sacrifice.
