    You're not too fast on the uptake are you? You said that making abortions illegal would reduce their numbers like that was some great revelation or something. It's so incredibly basic, it should have gone without saying.

    Conservatives feel they are doing a woman a favor by letting them walk around with their heads uncovered and go to school plus a whole 6 weeks of limited body control depending on what state you live in. Women should just shut up apparently.

    Save the forced birther mantra for those who want to force 12 year olds, rape victims or health compromised women.

    That aint me bro.

    You and I have the same opinion except you just have a different date.

    You need to own that.

    Why should it go without saying though?There are people on this board who tried to claim that abortion numbers were the same before Roe, but they all happened in back alleys. When called on that ridiculous claim they could never provide numbers, but it most certainly was a claim.

    Jokes on them though, unfortunately. Outlawing abortion has the same societal efficacy as outlawing drugs. All it does is push women into riskier situations or self medicating outside a professional environment.

    Ahhh. But I never claimed it was murder.

    It doesnt matter what you think. Abortion is 100% a legitimate solution to not wanting cells inside your body to grow into a person.

    Pretending like the date doesn't matter is so weaselly. We definitely don't have the same opinion on abortion. I am for giving the woman a choice over her own body and life and you are against it.

    I'm about as pro-life as can be, but it is my opinion that 6 weeks is basically an outright ban.

    I hate this topic because I both believe in giving that baby every chance at life but don't believe government should make health decision for people. I say something "pro-choice" out loud and feel scummy. Then I say something "pro-life" out loud and feel scummy too.

    Ok, you are pro-abortion we just draw different lines, would that be an accurate assessment of your views? Or would that be some stupid word play?

    You would actually have more integrity if you did. You'd be wrong, but you'd at least be consistent.

    They can chose to not have an abortion 24/7 365 a year. It is their free will to make that choice for themselves or to yell about it when other do. But to use the law to enforce evangelical Christianity beliefs on the rest of the country is BS and 100% unconstitutional.

    Ok. I am pro abortion...but with exceptions.The exception being abortion should be banned for non health reasons.

    How's that for word play? ;)

    Seriously. I hate the murder accusations.
    Scared 15 year old girls have been convinced by our society that it isn't a human being. How can you commit the act of murder against something non human?
    The law takes intent into account for a murder claim. So do I.

    Her intent was not to kill a human being.
    Murder is an unfair accusation.

    I dont even support criminalizing abortion for the woman. I think the law should exist to govern the medical community.

    Should one take it personal, if it lasts during the entire 3 weeks you're on vacation? Asking for a friend.
