Here's the real world!

Arizona law - passed by a huge majority of old white Republican men - bans abortions after 15 weeks. Watch the testimony by an Arizona State Senator and take the poll.

Also, you might find it interesting that during her testimony many old white Republican legislators stood up and walked out as she was speaking. They weren't man enough to sit there and listen to the consequences of their actions.

I wish people learned how to post polls with a simple question and selections pertain.
There is no reason one should need to read the OP or click on a link.

Thank you for your input. Please ignore my posts and go away. Also, Ex-Lax may help you overcome your emotional issues.
 
Did she terminate prior to 15 weeks? If so, I fail to see the problem.

The only thing those old white trumplicans care about is the delivery of their generic Viagra. The big government party who sticks their fat noses in other people's bedrooms, doctor's offices, etc. They are scum, vote the bastards out.

If men can transition into women, and men can pummel women in womens sports then men are perfectly qualified to discuss abortion. So spare me your bigotry.

Discuss all they want. But nobody has any business involving themselves in a decision between a woman and her doctor.
Certainly not any level of government.

Yeah, well that rings hollow coming from big government leftists who want the government involved in every other aspect of our lives. The debate over when life begins and when ending it ceases to be a choice is a scientific, legal and moral decision that should be decided by the people

Yes, we are all aware of that. You admonished me about one of my posts (not even a poll) without "crib notes" as well. Get over it. If you won't take the time to view the video, then just leave the thread and respond to something else.

Bullshit.
This leftist lives in a country that has no laws around abortion. None. And approves of that. You, however, live in a country that has a cluster-**** of laws that involve 'the people' sticking their noses where they don't belong and you have an abortion rate about twice what we have.
Mind your own damned business.

So is it the fact that they are men, white, or old that makes their opinions invalid?
 
If a two year old child has cancer, is expected to die in three weeks, and has temper tantrums which cause great psychological stress and grief on the parents is it moral for the parents to shoot and kill the child? My thoughts on this: Once the child actually dies from cancer then it's okay to shoot the child.

I'll guess that the replies to this are that the fetus has no value and that value is arbitrarily obtained upon birth during the biological life cycle.

Looking at their legislature the republican representatives arent old, arent all white, and arent all men. looks to be 10 women, at least 1 black man, and several latinas that voted for the 2022 law. And thats in the house alone.

Regardless...the reality is that there are as many women that oppose the butchering of babies as their are men. But that reality isnt convenient to the pro slaughter crowd.

Personally...I dont really support 'bans' on abortion. But the arguments are rather tedious. Pro slaughter advocates always throw out the extreme...while ignoring that the extreme cases they site to justify butchering babies is always the extremely small minority. So I say...you bet. Lets allow for abortions for rape...for incest, and for the life and death medical needs of the mother and even in cases where the baby is no longer viable. OK...so if we allow for the say...3-5% of total abortions that covers are the pro slaughter bans ok with the ban of killing perfectly healthy babies in the name of convenience.

And my bet would be 'no'.

You didn't vote in the poll.

Generally I believe data would prove it to be valid in most states that restrict abortions. Then again, show me states where women are the majority of voting age citizens who also have the majority of members who hold seats in state legislature. So yes, old white male Republicans represent a voting block at state and national levels.

It remains difficult for women to establish anything close to equal representation in government, state and national.

The fetus in the womb of the woman in the OP is dead. The question is should she be forced to continue to carry that fetus until her woman’s body miscarries?

That is the subject of the OP.

Do those parents still have to carry around their child's corpse around until somebody gives them the ok to bury it?

IMO, your analogy is horrible. I'd try again.
