Texas put a gigantic bounty on women who attempt to get an abortion. They didn't do that by accident. That is what they WANTED, and for you to suggest it may not be happening is your total denial of realtity. What it means is that laws are NOT the only approach to reducing the number of abortions. And, the FACT that right wingers like you totally ignore that is a strong indication that what you are ACTUALLY interested in is purely political. Otherwise, you would care about more than just laws against women's personal healthcare. What any legislation is "aimed at" requires investigating what the legislative body was thinking. I don't have any reason AT ALL to do that. The point is that their system is structured such that the state pays for abortions, yet their system results in a LOWER percent of pregnancies ending in abortion. YOU should CARE about that - if you actually wanted that result. On the other hand, I see your actions as evidence that you are far more interested in the political issue and using your religion as justification for you judging women - something that the Bible tells you is NOT something god wants from you. In fact, the Bible points to Adam's original sin as being strongly related to him thinking that he was worthy of being judge.
Of course it MAY be happening! I'm not saying that's it's not possible! But you said that it IS happening. Do you still stand by that? I totally agree that laws are not the only approach to reducing the number of abortions. I don't know what I have said to make you think that I ignore that. And what they've done to reduce abortions should be considered. I do. When exactly have I used a religious pro-life argument? Never? Okay!
Banning abortion would only result in women being jailed and executed if the abortion law included it. If something is made illegal it will obviously be harder to access. They're both lives.
FoxHastings said: ↑ Uh, why do Anti-Choicers want abortion banned? Because they claim it's MURDER....so if a woman commits MURDER shouldn't she be imprisoned or executed like the other murderers ??? LOL, whatsa matter? Don't like the idea that ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES and banning abortion will result in women being jailed and executed for MURDER ????? A LAW THAT HAS NO PUNISHMENT ???? WTF !!! FoxHastings said: ↑ Uh, why do Anti-Choicers want abortion banned? Because they claim it's MURDER....so if a woman commits MURDER shouldn't she be imprisoned or executed like the other murderers ??? LOL, whatsa matter? Don't like the idea that ACTIONS HAVE CONSEQUENCES and banning abortion will result in women being jailed and executed for MURDER ????? CAN'T ANSWER THOSE INCONVENIENT questions ? But not impossible and so laws agains abortion won't end abortion....just make women's lives harder which righties delight in...and is their only goal.. So? If you think the unborn are exactly the same as the born then you are just wishfull thinking...
Can't say a hitman committed murder but NOT the person who hired them... OK, then you agree that women will be jailed or executed for committing murder...even if they didn't perform their own abortion..
I thought that you could have come up with at least SOME counter arguments to the above! I guess not!
What are you talking about? OF COURSE a law against abortion would have punishment! For the MILLIONTH time, abortionists would be punished! Already answered: I've never suggested that a ban on elective abortion would END it. It wouldn't. Just like the ban on illicit drugs doesn't end drugs! I never said that they are exactly the same! Just like a born child is different to an adult! They are at difference stages of life!
FoxHastings said: ↑ OK, then you agree that women will be jailed or executed for committing murder...even if they didn't perform their own abortion.. So women should be able to MURDER and get away with it? Hey, how old of a person can they murder and get away with it?? Is there a limit? WOW, women are going to be REALLY POWERFUL if they can murder and not have to go to jail..... I would think men would start to get mighty scared !!!!!!!
So we would be free to hire hitmen to murder people for us and we wouldn't have to go to jail? Really!! FoxHastings said: ↑ Uh, why do Anti-Choicers want abortion banned? Because they claim it's MURDER....so if a woman commits MURDER shouldn't she be imprisoned or executed like the other murderers ??? NO, you did not answer that question. WHY would abortion be banned? WHY do Anti-Choicers want it banned? Abortion doesn't cause harm to society, doesn't cause chaos....drugs do and need to be controlled. Yes, you do say they're the same when you insist the UNborn have rights the same as born persons.
No of course not. Sure I answered it. Your question (in red above) was: "if a woman commits MURDER shouldn't she be imprisoned or executed like the other murderers?" And my answer was: It's your opinion that only that which causes harm to society should be illegal. And the babies who were killed were obviously harmed. No, if I said that they are EXACTLY the same, that would include that they are they same in terms of physical development - which they are not obviously. A born child and an unborn child are at difference stages of life! Just like a born child is different to an adult! You're doing a good job, and have not given up yet and you've not started to report my posts! Keep it up!
FoxHastings said: ↑ So we would be free to hire hitmen to murder people for us and we wouldn't have to go to jail? WHY would women be allowed to murder but no one else can ? That's just nuts! FoxHastings said: ↑ Uh, why do Anti-Choicers want abortion banned? Because they claim it's MURDER....so if a woman commits MURDER shouldn't she be imprisoned or executed like the other murderers ??? NO, you did not answer that question. Uh, there already IS a law against murder... There are no babies killed in abortion. Abortion does NOT affect society, does not cause chaos. HOW have YOU been affected by all the millions of abortions that have happened in the last thousand years? You haven't. Nice squirm but we were discussing RIGHTS, NOT development...

FoxHastings said: ↑ So women should be able to MURDER and get away with it? Hey, how old of a person can they murder and get away with it?? You "missed" the first question: So women should be able to MURDER and get away with it? That is exactly what you are saying....
They wouldn't. Yes, and it has nothing to do with abortion. According to YOUR definition of "baby." Again, it's YOUR opinion that only that which causes harm to society should be illegal. HOW have YOU been affected by all the millions of murders that have happened in the last thousand years? You haven't. I think that they should have the same rights, but this doesn't mean that I think that they are exactly the same. Again, they are both lives. Simple!
WHY are Anti-Choicers against abortion ??? No, according to facts....scientific facts, those things that frighten Anti-Choicers. I never said that...but doesn't it make sense? But millions of people have been affected. Nice squirm but we were discussing RIGHTS, NOT development...Glad you're back on track FoxHastings said: ↑ Yes, you do say they're the same when you insist the UNborn have rights the same as born persons. What TF does "they are both lives" got to do with how much rights they should have ? Rights should be equal. Don't you believe in equal rights???
Isn't that MURDER? YES, it is....why are you dancing around that FACT? For the thousandth time : ..see for an abortionist to do anything they need a pregnant woman who wants an abortion.... Can't say a hitman committed murder but NOT the person who hired them... Now, quit going around in circles and cherry picking only what you think you can address....try the hard stuff
what do you mean by it's avail if the potential mother's life is at risk, do you mean it's only avail then?
