millions of them), would argue that there is a compelling ethical case to be made that they became a person at conception. here’s the logic. Conception is literally the only moment in our entire path of life when something spectacular happens, when something literally gets created that wasn’t there a minute ago. Picking any other time to assign personhood ( 15 weeks for example) is completely arbitrary and totally devoid of any logic. Other than conception, we are never any different at any moment, than we were a minute before. Never. Make that wrong. You can’t. You can’t win this, you aren’t holding any cards. I get the benefit that abortion provides to the moms. But there’s another party involved. It’s easy to be pro abortion when you ignore the baby. I’ve seen the ultrasounds, it’s obvious what i’m looking at. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |
Pete, you asked how Trump is doing? If you look at the polls, he’s doing about as well as Biden. What does that tell you?

Are you aware that every courthouse has a statue of Lady Justice wearing a blindfold? Do you have any clue what the blindfold represents? also, huge numbers of women are anti abortion. your side always pretends that all women are pro abortion, and that only men are anti abortion. Not remotely true. “old white male guard” like Clarence Thomas and Amy Barrett. When you have zero logic or empathy, you can always play the bigot card! Have you seen the way Hispanics are shifting to the right? The court had a left lean for decades, you never co pained about that once. Is it written in the stars that the supreme court must always lean left? Nowhere in that rant did you mention the baby. I can talk about moms all day. Your side goes to amazing lengths to avoid discussing the baby. Videos of first trimester abortions show babies physically resisting the instruments of the abortion. That means nothing to you? Yeesh.

Sticking to the constitution is the exact opposite of activism.
So every SJC since 1972. Had the constitution wrong ? And these justices have cracked the code on the correct interpretation of the constitution…. ? For 1 reason only. it fits their religious ideology, and all the legal claims are considered weak The world is laughing at us over this ruling Italy However, his party leader, Matteo Salvini, was notably more nuanced, stating that he believes "in the value of life… but on pregnancy, the last word belongs to the woman" - perhaps a recognition that the majority of Italians say they still support the right to abort. of Ireland news of the US Supreme Court ruling has triggered a swift and passionate response. The issue stirs deep emotions here where abortion was only relatively recently decriminalised. The world continues to watch America become unrecognisable," wrote Dr Jennifer Cassidy on Twitter, a university lecturer who was in Dublin in 2018 when jubilant crowds celebrated as the Republic of Ireland voted to decriminalise abortion. This will embolden the most conservative groups in our countries who consistently deny women rights", Justin Trudeau, did not mince words, calling it a "devastating setback" and "horrific" for women. "Quite frankly, it's an attack on everyone's freedoms and rights," Mr Trudeau said 61% majority of U.S. adults say abortion should be legal in all or most cases, while 37% think abortion should be illegal in all or most cases. These views are relatively unchanged in the past few years This is what tyranny looks like at the hands of the minority The US is starting to look like Iraq where the Sunnis ruled as the minority for decades, unable to win the popular vote on merits they just did what trump tried to do instal himself has leader by placing supporters who would make sure it happens , that’s why you have election denying Republicans with Trumps support running for secretary’s of state in swing states . And Trump supporters are not watch the hearings because they are upset it didn’t work. Not that he tried And the Republicans are a cult Arizona lawmaker Rusty Bowers would vote for Trump again despite his emotional Jan. 6 testimony If he is the nominee, if he was up against Biden, I’d vote for him again,” Bowers told the Associated Press. “Simply because what he did the first time, before COVID, was so good for the county. In my view, it was great.” So much for having principles Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |

hearing those voices again. But this one specific decision, was absurd. Going from “protection against illegal search and seizure” to abortion, is a questionable leap at best. All you have, are complaints about how this impacts women. Again, the supreme court isn’t supposed to care about that. Only about the constitutionality. If you want to discuss the pros and cons of abortion, the place to do that is with your legislature. Do you have a legal Argument about why it’s reasonable to assume the constitution was meant to protect abortion? Ah, the popular vote tantrum. The GOP did a better job responding to the mathematical realities of the electoral college. If popular vote mattered, the gop would do what the democrats do, ignore flyover country and focus on the populated coastal areas. But it would be stupid to do that. “we’re becoming like Iraq.” My god man. This decision literally means that we get to decide on abortion, rather than 9 unelected lawyers deciding for us. This decision is a move towards representative democracy. There’s no arguing that. None. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |

yea ok keep believing that nonsense not a single red state will put an abortion referendum on the ballot So the mathematical realities of the electoral college in your mind is representative democracy your drinking the GOP kool aid again tyranny of the minority that's why i compared the GOP vision of the US to Iraq cheating to stay in power from trying to overturn elections to gerrymandering districts and you were right the GOP are playing Mathematics to get votes ! Not actual trying to get elected on policy or message . you can't lose an election if there is no opposition in your district because you rigged it that way Gerrymandering is at least partly to blame for the lopsided Republican representation in the House. According to an analysis, the Democrats are under-represented by about 18 seats in the House, relative to their vote share in The way Republicans pulled that off was to draw some really, really funky-looking Congressional districts. GOP version of representative democracy. to bad the math shows their deceit |

be cast aside for needs of more populous colonies. I never said otherwise. If your side stopped showing disdain for flyover country, perhaps they’d do better with the electoral college. The GOP does a better job of reacting to the realities of the electoral math. Every single post, you’re responsible g to something i never said. Your actually claimed that it’s “nationalism” to allow each of the 50 states to decide an issue. You have absolutely no idea what nationalism means. None. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |

The midterms are coming
By more than a 20-point margin, Americans call it a step backward rather than forward for America. And women, by more than three to one, think the ruling will make women's lives worse rather than better. The current court did decide this, in the face of 50 years of decisions.

All Americans, asked about what law they'd like in their state: 32%: abortion should be legal in all cases 32%: abortion should be legal in most cases 27%: abortion should be illegal in most cases 9%: abortion should be illegal in all cases. This will be the defining issue in the midterms, you’ll chant what about in lockstep with your masters. Resentment and a sense of inferiority can’t be fixed by winning elections and court decisions. It can’t be fixed at all, by anything. Posted from my iPhone/Mobile device |

Unfortunately for you nobody on the left is requiring people to have an abortion, unlike the prior administration’s forced sterilization of immigrants.
