    And that is a complete cop out.

    IT COSTS a woman to carry a child. It costs physically, it cost's financially (are you going to pay her medical expenses?), it costs emotionally and in some cases it costs them morally/ethically. I've spoken to (some) women I know who have been haunted by their decision, it certainly wasn't one they made easily. However it costs you nothing to sit there and object. Unless of course your the father of the baby concerned.

    If your not an addict it cost you nothing to judge the addicted. If your reasonably well off it costs you nothing to judge the destitute etc etc etc. Are you going to personally intervene to save the addicted or destitute?

    As I said I personally object to the idea abortion and if I were a woman I would hope I would never have one. But then I also hope I would never be addicted or on the street etc etc

    So once again I'm opposed to the process but I'm more opposed to the alternative - actively intervening to prevent it. And since you've just admitted you wouldn't personally intervene but would rather instead 'just leave it to the law' (how nice and convenient for you) I can only assume all the other other ill's that plague the world are the governments problem as well. Just so long as you get to keep your hands clean, that's the main thing.

    Genetic deformaty? What? That's not the reason women get abortions. Go look at any study. It's because the baby is inconvenient.

    Deal with reality. Face your reflection, then. Et back to me.

    Sigh.... I guess that means 63 million lost future Democrat voters, since nary a Republican woman has ever had an abortion...

    Look I get that you’re empathetic and that’s great.

    But I don’t really understand your position. It really sounds like you’re for people COMPLETELY abdicating personal responsibility for their actions.

    At what point do you say a person has to deal with and be personally accountable for the consequences of their own decisions that NOBODY else forced upon them?

    This is really what’s wrong with everyone today. Nobody wants to take any personal accountability anymore. It’s never their fault. They shouldn’t have to deal with the consequences of their decisions and actions because it’s ACTUALLY someone or something else’s fault.

    It's a ton of black children so you are missing out on more of that diversity you say you want

    Every
    action has its consequences. We all have live with our decisions, exactly because they are our decisions and our responsibility. And in the end we're all accountable.

    So said every murderer. But at the end of the day the actions you decided on are evil and deserve to be punished beyond your personal guilt.

    Abortion is a right of passage for liberal women it seems.

    No I came with an example of the reason someone had termination. You think that's not a valid reason, go ahead and explain why. Just as long as you also state you'd be willing to take on responsibility for raising the child in question. If not ? Shut up. And yes there are less valid reason for termination (IMO) but then that's only my opinion and I'm not walking in the shoes of any one woman whose having to make the decision one way or another. That's the thing about statistics. when applied to human beings. Every one 'stat; is a human being and not just a number.

    Really? Tell me how many murderers do you know who have actually said that? Examples......

    And in the case in question 'I' haven't decided on anything. In most cases (not all) if my opinion was sought I would suggest all of the alternatives be considered first and assist with that process if asked. But that's all I can do - suggest/assist, not order.

    Sure you can. They do it to men EVERY DAY.

    If a man gets a woman pregnant and he doesn’t want the baby and she does, she can FORCE him to pay for it. If he DOES want the baby and she doesn’t, she can just murder it and FORCE him to live with those consequences for the rest of his life.

    Why are men not off limits for screwing over but women are?

    A woman can COMPLETELY abdicate responsibility for pregnancy and men NEVER have the ability to do so.

    Do your own research then.. Many factors play in to the propaganda, wage averaging is misleading and bullshit! Women and Men work different types of jobs that pays differently. I have seen NO Women wrestling with drill steel in the oilfields, diesel/auto mechanic or other heavy physical jobs. In my 15 years underground I worked with only three Women and they were paid the exact amount I was paid and oddly did far less physical labor then their counterparts "special treatment"..

    Pay gap is simply a ruse and manipulated with skewed data.. If they want to make what men make then work jobs men work!

    That was just a moronic association to make between Biden and the SC decision from the poster.

    Poverty generators:
    1. Open borders that replace high paying American jobs for cheap illegal labor
    2. Moving American manufacturing jobs overseas. This also empowers our enemies and makes our country much weaker. He who owns the manufacturing owns the world.
    3. The Democrats destroying the black family by paying out dollars ONLY if a father is not in the home.

    All that being said, I agree that abortion reduces poverty. It is also probably the most racist policy in America today which is why white nationalists are all strongly pro-choice. They have seen the demographic data for who gets abortions and it makes them very happy. How do you feel about having something in common with white nationalists?

    It's biology. What are you going to do about it? May as well complain about gravity. Since the first civilizations developed men have had the option of 'walking away from a pregnancy they did not want to support (local social and religious constraints not withstanding). The law as it stands now? Sure you could argue its unfair, now a man ultimately has no say over whether his child gets carried to term by the mother but then also has no say over having to that child support financially until its an adult if she decides to keep it. Unfair? Probably. Lots of stuff in life are 'unfair'. Unlike most of them however pregnancy can be solved with contraception or a rubber - 99% of the time anyway. That or self control.

    So we can assume you’re pro choice because you don’t think Black Lives Matter?

    That’s EXACTLY how I feel about the woman who is crying about she’s not able to murder her baby with an abortion. Is it unfair you’re a woman and end up with the consequences of being pregnant? Probably. But lots of stuff in life aren’t fair. And they could solve that problem easily with birth control or self control.

    What’s the difference?

    The fact they want to abdicate responsibility because they had a lack of control before they got pregnant apparently.

    Except one of those 63 million people y’all murdered may have come up with the solution to poverty through technological advancement.

    But we will never know because y’all murdered him/her before they got the chance.
