Banning abortions is a human rights violation.A human rights violation, by it's very nature, affects all of humanity.
1.)Again, I see it as a form of acceptance. Not, obviously, full acceptance - but at the same time, you're willing to accept something you disagree with is going on to the point that you are not committing illegal acts to change it.
2.)I meant that some morals and opinions were considered to be rights, then codified into laws.
They're interrelated, but not the same thing, I suppose...
3.)That's what I'm saying, though...facts are unchanging, but the interpretation of said facts - which is the only thing most people see - can change.
4.)Morals and opinions are subjective. Some of those were thrashed out into rights.
Rights are subjective, until codified into laws.
Interpretations of laws are subjective, until ruled on by courts.
Interpretations of rulings are subjective, until more rulings further clarify.
Everything is subjective, really - we've just formed a framework of rules, laws, and precedent that removes some of that subjectivity. Remove the framework...and everything is subjective again.
5.) I suppose it is more than 2 sides - but those two sides are the vocal minority who currently are shown as the examples of what the discussion is.
The middle is really more of a motley collection of sides, none really disagreeing with the other.
But forget sides - IMO, none of the available options are acceptable.
The option of allowing abortions, even if only some, causes a human (or some other word/phrase that means "will be human but isn't yet") to die.
Fully or partially disallowing abortions takes rights away from a human, possibly even the right to life - assuming we're talking a life-threatening pregnancy here.
I do not accept any of these options.
6.)But I do accept that we must choose one, for the moment.
7.)Going a bit further, IMO any human decision making is guaranteed to be biased in some way - depending on what the bias is, I agree or disagree with the decision. As everyone does.....
We've already changed the rights and constitution multiple times. Our interpretation of same, even. Some agree with these changes, others do not.
Possibly.
Banning abortions is a human rights violation.
Allowing abortions is a human rights violation.
Which do we choose, then?
actually we have covered before how murder is not solely a legal term. Hardly surprising that you would continue ignoring that though

Banning abortion MIGHT result in death, if its a matter of "abort or you will die", which happens occasionally.While I don't think that banning abortion is the best way to go, I also don't beleive doing so is a human rights violation. Banning abortion does not result in death, pregnancy is avoidable, and having control over one's own body does not necessarily mean you should have the right to kill your offspring.

Pregnancy is avoidable unless the woman was raped.
Having control over ones body DOES mean that you have the right to do ANYTHING with it, including removal of something you don't want on/in it.
Thus, banning abortions, in whole or in part, is a human rights violation.
This is just my opinion, of course.
I think we're either using different definitions of "accept", or we just have different takes on what it means.1.) but that doesnt have anything to do with the meaning of acceptance
excellent.2.) this is 100% true, SOME are and do happen to line up
Even if you gave people the bald facts, they would apply their own interpretations and still disagree.3.) but not impact the actual facts
You can't though. Subjectivity is an inherent part of being human....4.) agreed, the end result is removing the subjectivity
Then they are actually thinking that the "other middle" is the fringe segment - for some, there is no middle ground except agreement with them.5.) i disagree, just look that he abortion here, the most people that disagree are the ones in the middle because SOME magically think that their middle is good and the other middle is evil, its hilarious.
I don't know much about RvW, really - apart from it being current law...and me not knowing exactly what that means...but I tend to agree that it's one of the best options out of a barrel of bad choices.6.) I also thing one must be chooses and RvW isnt that bad, it is in the middle more closely than the extremes SOME people want.
You can't get everyone to agree, some will do so out of contrariness.7.) i got no problem with that but thats the basis and where we have to start, some just magically jump to the end and make up thier own rules trying to abandon the framework you were previously talking about.
I was actually referring to other stuff. Plus back patting hurts my shoulder.8.) yes "possibly" you were told that
Apparently you need some type of reference material to understand this. Try again? It's hard to dumb it down further.
Clearly, the fetus does not have an equal right to life with individuals that are already born.
1.)While I don't think that banning abortion is the best way to go
I also don't beleive doing so is a human rights violation.
3.) Banning abortion does not result in death
4.), pregnancy is avoidable
5.) and having control over one's own body does not necessarily mean you should have the right to kill your offspring.
1.)I beleive any control of abortion should include exceptions for rape and health of the mother under the philosophy of Self Defense. Self Defense is the only time I believe that killing another human is acceptable.
2.) I disagree, unless it's in self defense.
Of course.
1.)I think we're either using different definitions of "accept", or we just have different takes on what it means.
excellent.

1.)Again, at its most basic level, there is no right violated when the state protects the right to life of all living humans.
2.)To claim otherwise remains an exercise in absurdity and futility.
3.)All humans have a natural right to life and all humans are created equal.
Once more, extremist ideology has been defeated in the courts. This will most likely move up to the Supreme Court, where I expect 2 things will happen.
1) SCOTUS will uphold the ruling, saying the Texas law places an undue burden on women.
2) Some here will call Justice Roberts a RINO. Never mind that he will have upheld the Constitution, and left ideology out of his decision.
Of course, for some of the "smaller government crowd, they really do want big government when it suits their own desires to force their own religious beliefs on others.
Article is here.
Not even a little? /cry1.) theres only one to use :shrug:
the conversation has always been about "forcing personal acceptance"
and that is impossible to do
it being legal doesnt force acceptance at all
this fact hasnt changed
Not entirely. If enough people believe an incorrect interpretation, it can become a larger problem.2.) that their issue to deal with
The framework allows for change, though - if enough disagree, it can change somewhat.3.) you just showed how it is done, the framework is put in place and its done. People may disagree but unless the frame work is changed its menaignless
People don't like being wrong.4.) hence their denial of reality and facts
Yep.5.) well its definitely middle ground. It use viability (50% viability) as a marker and at 24weeks
way better than any extreme option
Yep.6.) 1 agree and said as much
Completely understandable.7.) i was patting your back you weren't, but if your shoulder hurts youll have to rub on your own ointment
Late term abortion is murder, and anyone who supports late term abortions is an extremist and a murderer....
IMO, these feminists and progressives murder babies as a hobby just to "embrace" their delusion of civil liberties and to spite the pro-life crowed.
It's really disgusting....
Anyone who supports late term abortions should be treated like the savage killers they are... They deserve no respect - nor should they be treated as "human" - in my book they're nothing more than rabid rodents.
You don't get a Fortress of Solitude, that's Superman's place, and he's a good guy.Yeah that's it. They go around murdering for fun. Obama told them to.
We've been found out guys. Quick, to the Fortress of Solitude! Somebody needs to make sure we tell the media to cover for us.

Yes, progressives (not every progressive) but there are a minority that love abortions and have the procedure just because they "can." To them having an abortion is on par with gun rights advocates open and carrying their firearms in public to assert "just because they can."

2.)****ing baby killers belong in prison with other sicko's who commit crimes against children...
3.) Premature babies survive ALL THE TIME - if those kids can survive than late term abortion is ****ing murder...
4.) This goes way beyond "reproductive rights" and into homicide or First Degree Murder - especially when individuals are charged with murder when a mother loser her "fetus" via domestic violence or any sort of violence that resulted in the "fetus" dying in the womb.
5.) Of course that concept is too difficult for progressives to rationalize in their brain considering the facts don't jibe with what the WANT....

You obviously have to settle for some evil lair. Bad guys always have evil lairs.
Ok1.)lol no because i already gave factual example after example
Yet, can still affect others.2.) a problem created by them that doesn't change the facts
Randomly, no. But if they organize a bit...3.) this is true it does allow for change in a certain way and those people randomly stomping their feet and crying and just making claims doesn't get it done
I don't like being wrong. But I know I CAN be wrong. So I deal.4.) SOME people don't like it. Ive been wrong plenty it doesn't impact me at all, normal people simply learn from the experience.
