The cruelty of Republican policies...


May 19, 2023, 12:00 PM

Forced birth by a woman pregnant with a fetus incapable of living outside of the womb longer than 99 minutes.

Queue up the moronic defenses and non-sequiturs. How about trying to defend what your policies require? (I get it - beer cans and men in women's swimsuits are more important to you.)

Most Americans support abortion rights before viability. 6-week abortion bans, when viability occurs after 20 weeks, are onerous and ban abortion before many women even know they are pregnant.

But don't be confused by facts.

I'm not at all confused about it.

Any more than I am confused by people who want to ban all abortions and pretend that late-term abortions exemplify what abortion is about.

Obviously, this family would have been no better off under a 6-week ban.

To people with your views, this is the kind of tragedy that is simply the cost of doing business when restricting reproductive rights.

May 19, 2023, 3:49 PM

When the death rate in the vaccinated cohort is significantly less than the unvaccinated, it is a no-brainer.

Deaths from the vaccine are extremely rare, death from covid is not. When the vaccine also greatly reduces your chances of dying from covid then obviously it is worthwhile.

Both partial birth abortions & mass shootings = rare events


May 19, 2023, 8:47 PM [ in reply to Where are the stats that say late-term abortions are ]

Explain why those horrific events such as partial birth abortions … simply because that procedure is a small minority of the overall abortions … should be acceptable in a civilized society?

By that standard, mass shootings … because the victim count of such events represent a tiny minority of all murders … should be acceptable in civilized society.

(*). The ‘don’t worry about partial birth abortions’ argument by the ‘there should be no limits on a woman’s right to choose’ crowd is morally bankrupt.

Period.

The fact that all these late term drum beaters seem to miss is that late term, these children are wanted. They have names picked out, cribs and nurseries set up and the last place lawyers need to be is in the middle of a family and a doctor having to make the hardest decision of their lives if something is wrong.

Religious zealots are not why abortion laws were needed

1

May 19, 2023, 9:06 PM

Your assertion that all late term fetuses are wanted by the pregnant mother is flat out false.

Why did you write that?

As for the 13 week checkup and the possibility that a fetus may be abnormal and relegated to a horrible life if borne alive, then the pro-abortion rights crowd has a hill to stand on.

(*). Push for legislation that provides for a a specific set of exceptions to the 12 week laws; with those exceptions being limited to truly ‘ruined if borne alive’ type fetal abnormalities.

(*). The extensive abuse by pregnant women who desire to abort a healthy fetus strictly out of ‘life style convenience’ or because the expectant mother belatedly decided that she doesn’t like the biological father … therefore she should be free to have the fetus murdered … is why these 12 week laws are needed.

(*). Make the medical case, with exception circumstances being specifically and unambiguously defined, and you’ve got something.

Re: Religious zealots are not why abortion laws were needed


May 20, 2023, 9:13 AM

Quoting from your link:

“ Why do people have abortions later in pregnancy?
Non-Medical Reasons: Individuals seek abortions later in pregnancy for a number of reasons. As part of the Turnaway study out of the University of California San Francisco, from 2008-2010 over 440 women were asked about why they experienced delays in obtaining abortion care, if any (Figure 2). Almost half of individuals who obtained an abortion after 20 weeks did not suspect they were pregnant until later in pregnancy, and other barriers to care included lack of information about where to access an abortion, transportation difficulties, lack of insurance coverage and inability to pay for the procedure. This is unsurprising, given abortions can be cost-prohibitive for many; in a study from 2011-2012, the median cost of a surgical abortion at 10 weeks was $495, jumping to $1,350 at 20 weeks (range $750-$5,000) excluding the cost of travel and lost wages. Yet the Federal Reserve Board found 40% of U.S. adults do not have enough in savings to pay for a $400 emergency expense, meaning many individuals may need to delay having an abortion until they can raise the necessary funds.”

Xxxxxxx

This ‘justification’ to have a late term abortion is simply one of convenience. Not a medical reason.

Sorry dude(s), murder is not justified by a pending mother because she belatedly learned that she was pregnant, and decides that an abortion of the child would be preferable than enduring giving birth. Being expensive to have a late term abortion is a non sequitur. She can have the baby and give it up for adoption.

Xxxxxxx

Maybe it’s time to refine your critical reading skills.

"selectively" quoting...

May 20, 2023, 9:20 AM

Not quoting the medical reasons and not quoting where it is pointed out that most states do not allow late-term abortions for non-medical reasons.

But tell me about reading comprehension.

The only people who say it is for "convenience" are the people who can never get pregnant.

What
Did
Your
Article

?

It stated medical reasons + reasons of convenience.

The analogy is:

Some women steal their food and some women pay for their food. In your world, both factors are the same because people want food.

Substitute ‘steal for their food’ with ‘have abortions for reasons of convenience’ … also substitute ‘pay for their food’ with ‘have abortions for medical reasons.’

If you insist that I draw cartoons to help you to understand this, then you will be awarded with the ‘I win the argument participation trophy’ and preserve the intellectual honor of OST and yourself.

This is all you ever do - change the subject - because you have no salient points to express.

Start your own posts if there is anything you care about rather than trolling those posts which you disagree.

Because you made no point on the topic, I can only presume that you are happy that the woman carried the child to term. That's pretty sick, keyboard warrior.

where does it say in hindsight they would rather have had their baby sucked out by a vacuum and put into a blender (or whatever they do)?

FL abortion law: How does your example proves ‘moronic law’

1

May 19, 2023, 8:38 PM

Sadly, politically ideological doctors have become dubious sources of definitive medical outcome predictions.

It is tragic that the child had a short life due to a fatal abnormality.

Know what else is tragic? Aborting a child that might have a fatal abnormality … but May in fact not have such an abnormality.

Either way, the mother and father of the abnormal child are tragic figures.

(*). I don’t (and won’t) subscribe to WAPO. Therefore, I am dependent upon whether your (or other subscribers’ interpretations) of the article are ‘fair and balanced’ -or- tilted to create the maximum political effect.

So then, why is FL’s new abortion law moronic? Kindly use the example that you had posted to support your thesis.
