Liberals On Abortion

[JoeB131]

Its NOT her body you dumbfuck. I am a woman, and I knew that the baby I carried was her own person.

Awesome. THat was your choice.

Other women make other choices. Deal with it.

 

[Terri4Trump]

Awesome. THat was your choice.

No it wasn't. I had no choice to murder a child, and especially not my own child.
You know, you continually repeating your same stupid lies does not make them true.

You are a liar, an idiot and a fool, plain and simple.

 

[danielpalos]

...prevention not abortion!

 

[Cecilie1200]

No link....so you've been caught lying.


I can link.


"We don’t currently know the conditions surrounding the conception of this baby and UK officials are supposedly looking into it, but we do know that this woman and her family want this baby. That ought to be enough for everyone to unite behind her and support her in keeping this child, not an opportunity for some Orwellian court to override her desires and schedule an abortion anyway."
A British Judge Tried To Force A Disabled Woman To Abort Her Child Against Her Will

So you post that as evidence of what?

That you claimed that she had been raped, with zero evidence, no links, and the usual sort of reliability you evince.


In short, you represent the "I" in "team."

Old man, how can she be pregnant without having given consent to sex?

Are you suggesting god did it?

Since you hypothesized rape, I suppose you can hypothesize that Obama is responsible.....does he have an alibi, old woman?


Just admit you've been caught lying.

After all, you don't have a reputation to uphold.


Looking forward to your picture on a milk carton.

I'm still looking for the evidence that she wasn't raped from you>

You think that coming don trump....er old dude.

Well, now I'M looking for where "proof of negatives" is any part of British law.

 

[JoeB131]

No it wasn't. I had no choice to murder a child, and especially not my own child.
You know, you continually repeating your same stupid lies does not make them true.

You are a liar, an idiot and a fool, plain and simple.

Sure you did. If you had an abortion, no one would have arrested you for murder. (In fact, no one was arrested for murder when abortions were "illegal".)

You made a choice. I'm all for you have that choice.
Other people make other choices. I'm all for them having that choice.

 

[Chuz Life]

Three: At some point in time between ejaculation and live birth, the product of that copulation ceases being "tissue" and becomes a legal person, for Constitutional purposes.

Ok then. . .

Is it your view that a child is not a child until it lives too long and simply looks too much like a child for your (or society) to deny the fact that it is a child, any more?

 

[basquebromance]

"MPs have voted to extend both same-sex marriage and access to abortion to Northern Ireland, bringing the region into line with the rest of the UK on two of the most significant social issues of our time."

VICTORY!

I mean real Liberals, those with integrity and a reputable view of the world, not the mind numbed variety that adhere to the Democrats no matter how insane their current agenda is.




1.Perhaps you’ve noticed that today the strongest Liberals/Democrats are those with the least ability to analyze what they are supporting. As a result, just as Orwell predicted in 1984, they can’t keep straight whether they are at war with Eastasia, or Eurasia. They need not keep track, they simply agree that the enemy at the moment is whoever the leadership says it is.
And today it is the unborn.

Hence, the Liberals were against gay marriage before they were for it. They opposed socialism before they were for it. And they opposed nuclear weapons for Iran before they were in favor of it.
So, no big deal to want to exterminate the defenseless.....

They are clueless to 180° turns by the party. Morons simply march lock-step via the party’s orders.





I came across an interesting real-Liberal essay opposing abortion, and it is instructive to peruse.


2.“Abortion: The Left has betrayed the sanctity of life From The Progressive magazine. Abortion: The Left has betrayed the sanctity of life
Consistency demands concern for the unborn

The abortion issue, more than most, illustrates the occasional tendency of the Left to become so enthusiastic over what is called a "reform" that it forgets to think the issue through. It is ironic that so many on the Left have done on abortion what the conservatives and Cold War liberals did on Vietnam: They marched off in the wrong direction, to fight the wrong war, against the wrong people.

3. Some of us … are now active in the right-to-life movement. We do not enjoy opposing our old friends on the abortion issue, but we feel that we have no choice. We are moved by what pro-life feminists call the "consistency thing" -- the belief that respect for human life demands opposition to abortion, capital punishment, euthanasia, and war. We don't think we have either the luxury or the right to choose some types of killing and say that they are all right, while others are not. A human life is a human life; and if equality means anything, it means that society may not value some human lives over others.




4. Until the last decade, people on the Left and Right generally agreed on one rule: We all protected the young. This was not merely agreement on an ethical question: It was also an expression of instinct, so deep and ancient that it scarcely required explanation. Protection of the young included protection of the unborn, for abortion was forbidden by state laws throughout the United States. Those laws reflected an ethical consensus, not based solely on religious tradition but also on scientific evidence that human life begins at conception. The prohibition of abortion in the ancient Hippocratic Oath is well known.

5. …it is important to ask why the Left in the United States generally accepted legalized abortion. One factor was the popular civil libertarian rationale for freedom of choice in abortion. Many feminists presented it as a right of women to control their own bodies. When the objection was raised that abortion ruins another person's body, they respond that a) it is not a body, just a "blob of protoplasm" (thereby displaying ignorance of biology); or b) it is not really a "person" until it is born.

When it was suggested that this is a wholly arbitrary decision, unsupported by any biology evidence, they said, "Well, that's your point of view. This is a matter of individual conscience, and in a pluralistic society people must be free to follow their consciences."




Thinking Liberals, largely an oxymoron today, continue embracing rectitude over party loyalty.

Abortion is murder. Simple as that.

Welcome home.

You have to wonder about people who celebrate normalizing baby-killing as a "victory". What I wonder is how they style their hair to cover up their horns, and if they have their pants specially tailored to accommodate the tail.

An open letter from Giubilini and Minerva | Journal of Medical Ethics blog

An open letter from Giubilini and Minerva

"However, we never meant to suggest that after-birth abortion should become legal. This was not made clear enough in the paper. Laws are not just about rational ethical arguments, because there are many practical, emotional, social aspects that are relevant in policy making (such as respecting the plurality of ethical views, people’s emotional reactions etc). But we are not policy makers, we are philosophers, and we deal with concepts, not with legal policy.

Moreover, we did not suggest that after birth abortion should be permissible for months or years as the media erroneously reported.

If we wanted to suggest something about policy, we would have written, for example, a comment related the Groningen Protocol (in the Netherlands), which is a guideline that permits killing newborns under certain circumstances (e.g. when the newborn is affected by serious diseases). But we do not discuss guidelines in the paper. Rather we acknowledged the fact that such a protocol exists and this is a good reason to discuss the topic (and probably also for publishing papers on this topic).

However, the content of (the abstract of) the paper started to be picked up by newspapers, radio and on the web. What people understood was that we were in favour of killing people. This, of course, is not what we suggested. This is easier to see when our thesis is read in the context of the history of the debate........"

"MPs have voted to extend both same-sex marriage and access to abortion to Northern Ireland, bringing the region into line with the rest of the UK on two of the most significant social issues of our time."

VICTORY!

Fucking idiots.

Maybe it's best that they limit their own numbers.

You have to wonder about people who celebrate normalizing baby-killing as a "victory". What I wonder is how they style their hair to cover up their horns, and if they have their pants specially tailored to accommodate the tail.

I wonder about people who still try to impose medieval theology to the rest of us.

Fetuses aren't people.

"VICTORY!" for atavism and a return to the laws of the jungle.


Welcome home.

Reality. Women in Northern Ireland were still getting abortions, they were just going to England to get them.

You're the buffoon who said...

Are you related to Heinrich Himmler?

I guess that's no, I don't really care about the lives of these babies.

again, when you stop trying to yank food out the mouths of kids to give tax cuts to billionaires, I'll take your concern for babies seriously.

Fucking idiots.

Maybe it's best that they limit their own numbers.

Conservative Christians have just as many abortions as Liberal Free-thinkers.

It's amazing how quickly people dump their principles when it's their lives getting fucked up by an unwanted Spooge spill.

"Abortion videos and images get censored on Social Media, why? Is it because it is a Human being Murdered? If these Leftists believe its nothing, then it shouldn’t be censored."
