    Hey, I got an idea...instead of you hiding behind silly posts that highlight how little you know, why don't you point out the hyperbole and anything else you disagree with in my post:


    """You got THAT from my post : """The self defense argument is irrelevant because the fetus is not a person. Whether it's elective or not has nothing to do with it.

    IF the fetus was ever deemed a "person" with rights the woman could claim self defense because ALL pregnancies cause harm (permanent and temporary) to women.

    Plus, as you know, no person has the right to use another person's body to sustain their life without consent."""


    WHERE in that did I say I want to force 100% of the population to pay for the procedure !?!?!?!


    I guess in your hatred for women has blinded you so you only see what you want.....

    YOU: ""There are enough people who have serious reservations about taking a life, no matter what stage of development it's at, that forcing these people to fund the procedure is simply unjustifiable"""


    I guess you just LOVE funding the military which kills fetuses, pregnant women, babies and all others, YOU have NO qualms about funding that , do YOU!!????


    And most Americans, no matter how they feel personally about abortion, have the brains and common sense to still want it legal.

    Did I say Hyperbole? I think I might have been mistaken and should have gone with hyperexcited, hypersensitive or simply hyperliberal :roflol:

    Where was the hyperbole in the post you were responding to ? Standing on a soapbox with hands over eyes, ears, nose, mouth and any other orifice that might let the bad news in crying "NO NO NO - Hyperbole" is not an argument for much ?

    It is not hyperbole nor exaggeration to claim that the military kills people (including fetuses, women, children, babies and so on).

    It is a statement of fact. It is not exaggeration to claim that many people are pacifists - do not like our military killing innocent civilians and making war in general.

    In general, the U.S. military (and most of our allies) seek to avoid killing innocent civilians if possible.

    Right - that is why the term "Collateral Damage" = intentional killing of innocent civilians was invented... or the phrase "Human Shields" as justification for killing innocents.

    Regardless, this does not change the central premise that some people are against war in general .. as innocent civilians end up getting killed or that they are against increased military funding simply on the basis that we are already well protected at current funding levels.

    Try and connect your comments to the context occasionally.

    Nobody but nobody likes war but sometimes you have to break out the M-16s and kick butt, unfortunately it is impossible to completely avoid collateral damage. Perhaps someday the human race will evolve past war but till then it is a fact of life.

    I see you avoided the "and all others", "I guess you just LOVE", after further review not only does if fall under hyperbole but also on personal attack and unsubstantiated accusations :)

    I think the FoxHastings needs a lesson on how to post in generality and stop accusing posters on a personal level ;)

    Got to love the left and their ability to reach across the intrawebz and evaluate what others love, see, want and know :)

    I'm pretty sure the term "collateral damage" refers to the ACCIDENTAL killing of innocent civilians while pursuing a legitimate military goal.

    https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Collateral_damage

    The side that hides behind "human shields" is the one with complete moral responsibility for what happens to them.

    "accidental" is still dead..... if people care so much about the unborn but shrug with killing actual born persons it's the height of hypocrisy.

    OR they feel only women should be restricted and punished....

    since guns can be used for self defense, can the government pay for mine?

    In the American judicial and penal system intent matters. It can be the difference between 4 years in prison and life or the death penalty for the same end act and the same dead victim.

    I think your hyper-approach to things is far more interesting, that is, if you don't mind to much ;)
