Legal homocide is now here.

A common simple, yet true and argument used against abortion is that any argument used to rationalize killing a human being in the womb could be used to rationalize killing a human out of the womb. Similar to using the book ‘1984’ when talking about socialism, and saying that it was meant to be a warning, not an instruction manual, they are now using their excuses for abortion to justify killing the newborn.

How anyone can look at this and still support these people is beyond me.

America has always worked because as a whole, Americans are good people. I'm afraid this is no longer the case in many places. So sad.

I don't understand why adoption is never considered. Why kill the baby instead of putting it up for adoption? You still have zero responsibility for it, but now you didn't kill it.

They don't realize how long the line is to adopt a baby.

I'm 56, never married or had any kids. I don't count "abortion rights" among my major political concerns. However, I've generally been pro choice and satisfied with the way things are...if you're going to eliminate it, get it done ASAP.

When they have to go in there and cut it into pieces before throwing the carcass in the trash...now you're going too damn far. Normally, l'd say let anyone do whatever the heck they want to themselves, and I'm not religious at all, but something DEEP DOWN in my "cosmic realm" of just being a human being says this is crazy, repulsive behavior.

If they keep pushing this, I've got to wonder how many in this country would actually want to allow it. It all plays out in elections, boys and girls.

[Iceaxe]

^^^Exactly my stand.

This late term abortion stuff is waaaaay over the line.

There is a point where following through with the birth and putting the kid up for adoption becomes the logical and reasonable choice. Deciding 10 minutes before birth is beyond ridiculous.

But let the Democrats race each other to the extreme left as this will not play well with them in a general election.

The problem with many on the left is every issue becomes a purity test and then they race to the extreme left to prove their progressive credentials. It's not enough to be good with the right to choose for the first 5 months or so of pregnancy. Now you have to be good with it as the baby is coming out of the birth canal or you get branded as an extremist trying to control women.

Same thing is what is driving the online SJW mobs. Everyone crawling all over each other to get more outraged quicker. That is how we find out that milk is racist, and that I am an "ableist" because I am good with an actor playing a handicapped guy.

Good point. I'm not sure I'd call it "purity" though in this case. I'm not sure how, as a human being you can give birth to a child, and look at it laying there next to you and make the conscious decision to "eliminate" it just because the mother might be distressed by having a baby. We already have the option of adoption which does the same thing, but allows that child to live out there life rather than being killed and disposed of. This is truly the face of evil.

Hey guys I think we should let Andrea Yates out of jail because she's a woman, and she has the right to choose whether or not she wants kids.

Who's Andrea Yates you ask?

She's the Texas woman who drowned her 5 kids one-by-one in the bathtub back in 2001. https://thoughtcatalog.com/jim-goad/.../andrea-yates/ Now granted, she murdered all five of her kids but I really, honestly believe she should be allowed to walk out of her minimum security jail a free woman. We ought not condemn her nor tread on her right to choose.

How am I doing? Am I a liberal yet?

[devo_stevo]

You're getting close. She was obviously stressed out that day and was being harmed by all five of those kids that she carried, gave birth to, and raised to whatever age they were when she did that. It's cruel that someone should be MADE to suffer like that. If only there was a way to help her out and/or someone that could care for those kids so that she doesn't have to...

Probably dealing with all of the microaggressions she had do endure while being mansplained to pushed her over the edge.

I was born premature. Emergency cesarian section. My mom said that had me in an incubator for 6 weeks and they didn't expect me to live. She said I was a mess...my head wasn't even round, but shaped like a cone.

Lucky me, I was able to pull thru without complications. With this law, they can decide to just bail...don't even try to save it. Those that support this insist that infanticide won't happen...no one would do such a thing and the "doctors" wouldn't allow it. Smarter heads would prevail, right?

Now here I was, hoping that this thread would be about letting the old dears shuffle off this mortal coil in some dignified manner.

I have offered my rather delinquent and frail parents a one-way ticket to the Dignitas Clinic in Switzerland, but so far they have declined my kind offer.

Interesting what I just read on Wiki about that place...

21% of people receiving assisted suicide in Degnitas do not have a terminal or progressive illness, but rather "weariness of life".

So....depression then? Forget Prozac - just kill yourself instead.

I think this is worth the approximately 8 minutes it takes to hear this speech.
