    Dems must have a death wish. If this isn't political suicide I don't know what is. Will the Left defend this.

    Ohio Democrat Drafts Amendment Seeking To Make Black Babies Exempt From Pro-Life Law
    A female Democrat state representative from Ohio, Rep. Janine Boyd, drafted an amendment last week seeking to have black babies exempted from pro-life legislation dubbed the "heartbeat bill," which bars babies with detectable heartbeats (around six weeks gestation) from being killed via abortion.

    Sensationalist garbage.

    Can we create like a "trash can" room for moderators to move these kinds of threads into? Anything from TheDailyWire or Breitbart, or any source that exaggerates and over-sensationalizes issues.

    Here we go again with the slavery; man oh man can liberals soak that for all it's worth right up to justifying killing black babies.

    So for those of you keeping score at home, do the math on this:

    Black on black murders need to be ignored, just mentioning it is racist
    Blacks being killed by cops proves this entire country is racist
    Let's murder black babies to our heart's content Yaaaaayyyyy!!!!!! Yippieeeeee!!!!

    Hey libs, kill all the black babies you want, just never again bitch about black lives mattering or any of that crap, because obviously they don't.

    And libs, if I agree with killing black babies are you going to call me a racist? But go ahead and kill as many as you want, I just don't care any more.

    If it is unreasonably sensationalist, absolutely. Let's cut out the garbage, please. Too much noise. Not enough substance.

    On the contrary, I much prefer different and challenging viewpoints.

    That is not what this is. This is garbage, intended to exaggerate an issue in order to incite anger. It feeds confirmation bias, and makes its audience more closed-minded and polarized.

    Well, if people could moderate their own discussions to fall within the region of "fairly reasonable," I would have no such desire. Since that is not the case, I would prefer to have a place where I can have discussions with reasonable people about intelligent issues.

    This is garbage. There is a reason why you are not allowed to throw your trash anywhere you want in public. There is an appropriate place to put your garbage: in the trash. Nobody would ever cry about censorship because they got a ticket for littering.

    You're off topic. Care to discuss the thread topic?

    Would you be satisfied to hear this from the mouth of Rep. Boyd herself?

    https://www.ohiochannel.org/video/ohio-house-health-committee-4-9-2019

    Go to 51:45 of the video. They are discussing Amendment 0291, the Amendment proposed by Rep. Boyd. to exclude people from the bill based on race.

    Why didn't you just pass over it instead of jumping in? Just out for a troll? The source doesn't make the news any less truthful.

    Stupid optics on this bill - but I can understand her frustration. She knows that the only people who will ever be arrested for disregarding the heartbeat law are the poor, the majority of which will be black. Takes us back to the original Supreme Court decision in Roe v. Wade where justices pointed out that abortion laws were disproportionally targeting the poor and that they could not be applied in any equitable manner. Rich people will just head to another state or country for a "vacation" and the only ones who will ever go to jail will be the poor.

    So who is going to make that call? I find almost everything leftist unreasonably, sensationalized and absolutely ridiculous! I'm thinking since you're still pretty new here and clearly not pleased with the format and the posts here maybe it would make more sense for you to find a different site more aligned with what you are looking for.. It would make better sense and far less intrusive then demanding all these PF Veterans posters that enjoy the site as is change their posting styles to suit some new user that's unhappy with what he or she has found here!

    Perhaps they could've introduced a bill centered around economic status/outlook as opposed to race?

    That proposal is surreal. AA on abortion? Good God. :no: I guess abortion sanctuaries are next. I hope those actually stick to their pledge when their faced with a flood of abortion restrictive states refugees.

    What is the actual intent here? To make only one racial group have an exclusion to the law? Why? I don't think I can remember a more racist intent being expressed in the public discourse especially at a state house.
