Right. Like I said, pregnancy is a death sentence and men that get women pregnant should all be prosecuted for attempted murder. It's the only way we can save democracy.Pregnancy and childbirth arent safe. It doesnt matter if all these increased deaths/near misses of pregnant women are because of lack of abortion access.
What they prove is that preg/chilbirth IS a significant risk every single time. It's only being focused on more now in the media because of the limits and increased dangers of new abortion restrictions...but it's ALWAYS a danger to the woman, death and major, permanent systems damage cannot be predicted nor always prevented.
ALWAYS dangerous. Never to be taken for granted. Women that want a baby willingly accept this risk...but it's immoral to demand women take this risk without their consent. The state is replacing the slave owner, taking away a woman's right to consent to her own life, health, reproduction, self-determination, bodily autonomy, due process, etc.
Isnt that exactly what slave owners did to their slaves? If not, explain how it's different and be specific. In the US, nowhere else do we deny people safer medical procedures because they have accidents performing normal social behaviors like skiing or driving.
And a recent judge in GA also drew this same comparison when he overturned a new GA abortion law. As have other judges considered it in the past.

...And how about the number of embryo, zygote, and fetal deaths? I’d like to see the overall total deaths accounted for. Each abortion typically causes a death.
Look, woman have been having kids to a couple of million years. We've got the system pretty much figured out and, while it isn't perfect, it generally works. Yes, being pregnant adds the potential for complications that don't occur when a woman isn't pregnant but you're coming at this like it's the greatest threat a woman could ever experience. For most women that isn't the case and I've even heard rumors that some women feel like pregnancy is kind of a special thing because that means they're going to have a baby. They tend to LIKE that idea.Thanks for showing your belly, and no capability to refute it. I'm glad that both your post and mine are there to consider. One has facts and one has misogynistic dismissal of women's lives. (and if you respond, I know exactly what you'll post. Please do.)
Let us be clear, conservatism does not want state intervention based on religious beliefs being imposed. Those who are anti abortionist and so believe in using the state to impose religious beliefs on the individual are not advocating a conservative view in the traditional and accurate sense although no doubt today we have watered down the true meaning of conservative to mean Trump supporters and anti abortionists.The number of people that believe "conservatives" on this issue is dwindling, it is not "pro-life" only pro-control.

There is risk involved in everything we do. Driving a car, walking to the store and stepping into a bathtub are all dangerous. While you might WANT to legislate all risk away that isn't really a practical idea because it means that all of us would be forced to sit around with our thumbs up our asses every day and even THAT presents health risks. We have doctors that specialize in caring for people in general and withing the set of doctors we even have doctors that specialize in reproductive health. Like in every profession, some doctors are good at what they do and others...not so much.
You or someone else in this thread was talking about an increase in maternal mortality. I'd kind of like to see the data behind that because I really suspect that fear of abortion laws has a LOT less to do with that than drug abuse does. Also, how many women go to an abortion clinic, get prescribed the baby killer cocktail and then don't get proper follow-up care? How many get prescribed the cocktail without a decent checkup ahead of time to catch risks that might be associated with the cocktail? The left is coming at this issue like abortion is perfectly safe and pregnancy is the most dangerous thing a woman can do. I'm no doctor but I suspect that's complete bullshit.
Well, part of what you said is valid. Abortion pretty much always results in death.That's all I read, the bold. The facts that you are admitting to are the REALITY. Pregnancy/childbirth is dangerous, it's ALWAYS a significant risk, and it cannot always be predicted or prevented.
I'm not directly addressing abortion, I'm discussing the anti-abortite minimization of "pregnancy is safe! Abortion always kills!" Pregnancy kills and maims a great deal...and when you reduce this to numbers, you dehumanize BOTH. Is that your intention? Because you are certainly reducing women to breeding vessels...that "just have to take their chances". That's disgusting.
Even moreso when the state demands the woman take that risk without her consent and you 100% ignored what I wrote about the state as slave owner? Why? Here it is again. Can you prove it's wrong?

Judges have already drawn similar conclusions. We just need to get this into another challenge case.
I have no doubt that they're trying their damndest, Phys, but they've been gerrymandered to death and cretins like Paxton are trying to stop them at every step...Texans, for women's sake, vote blue!
Well, part of what you said is valid. Abortion pretty much always results in death.
No state is demanding that women get pregnant.
Those of us on the pro-life side, however, are suggesting that a wee bit of responsibility is a good idea and that somebody somewhere along the line recognize that the mother's life isn't the only one we're dealing with when it comes to abortion.
Every person in this country should have access to proper medical care.
Wonder when Texas Planned Parenthood etc will start compensating NM for this patient load. In a state with a severe lack of rural health care, and lack of docs even in our cities, our PC Governor did the PC thing, spending $10,000,000 on a drop shop in Las Cruces, primarily for fugitive Texans. I guess she wants a job with Kamala.It will get worse because obgyn residents need to go out if state to get the proper training and many are going elsewhere including family physicians. Medical care will get much worse. New Mexico had a 300% increase in out of state patients.
Wasn’t Texas talking about building a border between Texas and New Mexico?
If we were talking about elective abortions of viable fetuses, you might have a point. However, in practice, elective abortions overwhelmingly involve things that only have "potential" to become human beings, like my sperm. That doesn't tip any scales against the rights of women. So, the Pope can kiss my ass when it comes to his proclamations.Well, part of what you said is valid. Abortion pretty much always results in death.

The "potential to be human" thing is a damned sickness. There is nothing else that a fertilized human egg is other than human. It's not going to develop into a tree, a bologna sandwich or the number 3. It's human from the moment of conception. The liberal idea that humanity is subjective is the core of all ideologies that lead to genocide.If we were talking about elective abortions of viable fetuses, you might have a point.

No more so than taking antibiotics results in death of bacteria or chemo results in the death of cancer.Well, part of what you said is valid. Abortion pretty much always results in death.
The problem are the states demanding women remain pregnant.No state is demanding that women get pregnant.
Utilizing abortion is being responsible, especially if a woman knows she is unable or unwilling to adequately raise a child. And what about women who used birth control that failed? Clearly they were being responsible by using BC. Why should they be denied an abortion? The woman's life or health is directly affected by a gestational parasite feeding off her body. Why should she forced to do so against her will and in violation of her bodily autonomy?Those of us on the pro-life side, however, are suggesting that a wee bit of responsibility is a good idea and that somebody somewhere along the line recognize that the mother's life isn't the only one we're dealing with when it comes to abortion.
No one is arguing whether a ZEF is a "human" or not. It's simply not relevant. Every cell in tbe body is "human." "Human" is simply a scientific designation based on DNA. But a ZEF is certainly not an actual born person.The "potential to be human" thing is a damned sickness. There is nothing else that a fertilized human egg is other than human. It's not going to develop into a tree, a bologna sandwich or the number 3. It's human from the moment of conception.

"It isn't a baby. It's a bacteria or a cancer"
Science!!!
That's pretty damned sick.
If someone requires scientific proof that a fertilized human egg is something other than human then there isn't any sense in discussing the matter further.All emotions and no arguments.
It's a ZEF, and akin to a parasite or cancer."It isn't a baby. It's a bacteria or a cancer"
Science!!!
Emotionalism.That's pretty damned sick.
Who said it wasn't human? You seem to miss the point and make some emotional attachment on the term "human." Science says nothing about the abortion issue other than the process.If someone requires scientific proof that a fertilized human egg is something other than human then there isn't any sense in discussing the matter further.
Typical too.All emotions and no arguments.
