tcnelson 1 #27 February 23, 2006 QuoteQuoteYipeeeeeeeeeeeee!!!!!!!!!! I'm from SD and it's awesome news to hear!!!! So women should have rights huh? What about all the female babies that are being killed; where are their rights??? Simple, just call them fetuses. Like calling a dog a cat, makes it a cat. it's ironic when people get outraged when a mother (or someone else) does something that harms an unborn child and then the same people claim that an unborn child is "just a fetus, not a person". you can't have it both ways folks. if an expecting father feeds chemicals to a mother that wants to keep the child and it kills the pregnancy, is it murder? if you say yes, then abortion is murder too."Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,503 #30 February 23, 2006 Most people who want to treat the harming of a fetus as murder are anti-abortion. Most pro-choice people consider the assault on the mother's health or body as the offense. If someone (anyone) surprise-feeds an expectant mother an abortifacient, then the attack on the mother would be the crime. Same as if she were given rohypnol, or made to drink an emetic. Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

QuoteIf someone (anyone) surprise-feeds an expectant mother an abortifacient, then the attack on the mother would be the crime. also true; but it wouldn't be murder would it? it would be some form of assault."Don't talk to me like that assface...I don't work for you yet." - Fletch NBFT, Deseoso Rodriguez RB#1329 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,503 #32 February 23, 2006 If you want to base sweeping generalizations (which your first post sounded like) on exceptions, then you have to expect to have them responded to. There are Americans who believe in the Easter bunny, who believe that Israel is right, that Israel is wrong, and Jews who believe that Israel should not exist. "They" is a strong word.

Oh!!! It was an anecdote! Well, geez then, because it was an example about two people you know (and made no mention of to begin with), we should not take such an ambiguous post as your general interpretation of the matter. Or maybe next time, be a little more clear. I have to go punch some dude and fill my brain hole with more pie.Why yes, my license number is a palindrome. Thank you for noticing.

billvon 3,049 #37 February 23, 2006 >if an expecting father feeds chemicals to a mother that wants to keep the child . . . It really makes me mad when people use different words to make it OK to kill a person. It's a person, not a child! >if you say yes, then abortion is murder too. When Bush proposed the Unborn Victims of Violence Act, civil rights leaders were a bit worried. Would that get used to "prove" that abortion was murder? "No, completely different," they were told. Didn't take long for that reversal. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You said QuoteThis is so wrong would they rather have our girls doing back alley abortions again. leaving, apparently more than one person, with the impression that would be the only choice. Then you got snippy with me when I asked why you thought this was the only option instead of just saying " I didn't mean to infer that was the only option." Whatever...I was just asking a reasonable question. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

wmw999 2,503 #42 February 23, 2006 I went and re-read your post. The first point really did sound (and still does) sound like it's pointing towards a sweeping generalization.

wmw999 2,503 #45 February 23, 2006 QuoteThey do not vote..hence they have no rights.When do the rights for the unborn start? When do they get social security numbers? When does Child Welfare begin to pay attention to how the mothers or fathers take care of them? When can you claim them on your income tax? They have the DNA to make them people from the beginning. However, I don't consider the cake mix in my pantry to be particularly good to eat, even when it does say "just add water." When it's an embryo, the mother might not even know that she is pregnant. Do we, to ensure that these embryos are given the proper protection, treat all women who have had sex and aren't actually ON THEIR PERIOD as being pregnant? Can't take birth control into account -- it can fail. Really. Abortion is not the best solution. But it should remain among the options.

Darius11 12 #46 February 23, 2006 Hi wind Just have to ask you a few things. I respect you for your fait and I am not so sure anymore on the issue of abortion my self. What do you say to the woman who have been impregnated by their rapist? Who have been impregnated by their fathers? It is a woman’s body it should be her choice to do with it what she wishes specially in cases where she had no say in the conception. Why is having the choice makes so many people mad? If you believe it is wrong don’t do it you have the right not to get an abortion. It does come down to belief and when you believe a human is a human. So why not allow people to do as they wish and let God decide if they should pay for their sins if there is a sin being committed. The reason I am picking on you is I know from your pervious posts that your belief is pure and not jaded by an agenda or at least I feel that way. I am very interested as to what is expected of the woman I mentioned above.I'd rather be hated for who I am, than loved for who I am not." - Kurt Cobain Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lisamariewillbe 1 #48 February 23, 2006 QuoteMinors do not enjoy full rights They do have the right to live though. Quotethe appropriate standard is viability. Which pretty much means third trimester Not always true, many babies have been born in the second trimester and have survived with little to no ill effects for the future. At Shands neo-natal department, my Cody was there as a preemie, he was a very strong and healthy one compared to many. There were babies there that were small enough to fit in the palms of hands, some almost transparent still because they were born so early. The baby 2 incubators from Cody was born at 22 weeks. There are MANY stories about babies born around that gestation that have lived.Sudsy Fist: i don't think i'd ever say this Sudsy Fist: but you're looking damn sudsydoable in this Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
