The crux of the issue is body autonomy. The precedent set by banning abortion could lead to the banning of other elective surgery and even forced implantation, forced vaccination or forced abortion. As much as I hate abortion, its precedentally important to maintaining sovereignty over our own bodies.
Then why are there kids who actually age out of the system without being adopted? Where are all those Anti-Choicers when actual KIDS need help? (BTW, LIEnews is an Anti-Woman's rights website, hardly proof of anything.) I know, I know just more inconvenient questions you'll hide from , like these: Here's another you haven't answered , " Shouldn't the U.S. avoid Anti-Choice extremism?" Here's ANOTHER you haven't answered: "You want to ban all abortions....right? What country should we model after?""" Here's ANOTHER question you hid from: """They got pregnant so lose the right to their own body?""" Here's ANOTHER : You: """""Anansi the Spider said: ↑ How is killing an unborn baby pro-woman?"""""" FoxHastings: It isn't, who told you it was? Allowing women to make their own reproductive decisions is pro-woman.""""" Here's ANOTHER: Ananzi: """The abortion industry has killed tens of millions of small women! It's the greatest mass killing of women in history: gendercide. Women are lied to by the abortion industry."""" FoxHastings: What lies are they told? No answers so far ..........
Poor people and minorities have little in the way of options. Why not empower them instead of pushing them to kill their children.
Given the nature of our political elites- yes, its an entirely realistic and terrifying possibility. They love authoritarianism and want control over anything and everything they can muster. You bet they'd use abortion restrictions as legal precedent to strap us down and do unnatural things to us. 'For the greater good' of course.
They are empowered by having a CHOICE....you want to take away that choice/power....... No children are killed in abortion, adults know that.
Anansi: So you want to see more poor folk and minorities killed by abortion? Is it hard for you to type while wearing your KKK robe? Just responding to the spider's post....it's the usual racist crap about how black women have the right to abortion, too, but Anti-Choicers seem to think there's something wrong with that.
They can control the people by population reduction. Healthy population growth does not serve their needs.
Is killing your child a precious right to be cherished? You are the champion of black women because you want to see black people decimated?! <Off-topic>
So you want to kill people who fall below some arbitrary threshold of brain activity? Unborn babies are not brain-dead: http://www.lifenews.com/2013/08/27/...-unborn-children-recognize-words-in-the-womb/
Yes I do. So do the families. And we do eeg's on babies all the time. They are brain dead until at least week 21. Lifenews is comedy gold. Lol
FoxHastings said: ↑ So YOU want black women to have less rights than white women. WHY? You are seriously frustrated and flummoxed now Talking about bizarre and irrational, you want black women to have less rights than white women BECAUSE YOU BROUGHT UP THEIR ABORTION RATE) and you want them to have NO right to their own body....
Sure. Not now though. I am on vacation and only have my iPad. But it is well documented. And it won't matter to you in the end
Thats true. But they dont need abortion to acheive that. Thats not a reason to compromise our body sovereignty.
