    I'm discussing the opinions I see on this thread and their implications. Nobody else is required to participate. You are the one who chose to quote my post. I am merely responding.

    Lols! Have you told that to the NRA yet? lols! But on a more serious note why is then Americas maternal mortality so high? Why is your life expectancy so much lower than ours? Why is your workplace health and safety basically crap

    Ha! I thought of going there, but it just opens other fronts which are off topic.

    It matters not how you take it. I'm telling you there is no blame of women in ANY of my comments. If you choose to interpret things differently then that is on you. No one else. I can't help how you think.

    There is Mr Stang. Woman has sex, she is to blame for the child having to come into the World.

    Nope. But her, and the father, do have a responsibility for creating that child. Responsibility =/= blame.

    I disagree and think he should have a say in the matter. But ultimately it's her decision.

    I'm not referencing this particular idiot, but just in general.

    Yeah? So? What I linked to is just evidence that there is nothing unconstitutional about the practice. And there is nothing in the Constitution which forbids States from having the same type of law as the Feds. Indeed, States laws often reflect Federal Laws and visa versa. As such, your argument is irrelevant.

    nope, you're saying one state can punish people for doing something legal in another State, they can't

    What in our Constitution, or their individual Constitutions, forbids it?

    While the definition of "blame" does talk about being held responsible for something, the definition of responsibility does not have the key component that is in the definition of "blame".

    VS:

    You use the word "blame" in order to push a negative connotation. I have no such negative connotation in any of my arguments because there is none to give. It is not a "fault" because it is simply a state of nature. There is no "sin" because that is a religious verbiage, and I'm not religious. And how could I find disapproval in or disparage something which is both natural and wonderful at the same time? Armed with this knowledge, which one do you really, HONESTLY, think that I mean?

    Now, I CAN "blame" a woman for getting an abortion. In that I most definitely am disapproving of and will disparage getting such. And the woman is most definitely at fault for taking such an action.

    But I have absolutely no reason whatsoever to find "blame" with a woman simply because she gets pregnant. No anti-abortion/pro-life person can, or will, find fault in such. To say otherwise is simply propaganda.

    one State does not have the right to arrest people for doing something legal in another State

    You making a statement is meaningless. Simply saying something does not mean its true. Again: What in our Constitution, or their individual Constitutions, forbids it?

    States do not have the right to arrest people for doing something illegal in another State, that is just fact

    Pedantic semantics.

    Bowerbird had a valid point outside pedantic semantics, yours is leeching off and inside pedantic semantics.

    Let's leave that there.

    Prove it. Prove your "fact". If you can't, then its not a fact.

    Pedantic semantics? You're the one that insists on telling other people what peoples positions are. You're the one that insists on categorizing a group you disagree with as something that they have never claimed anything towards. Even if my argument is "pedantic semantics", your argument is nothing more than propagandized attacks.

    a State can only arrest people for committing crimes in their State, not for doing legal things in other States
