    They may have agreed until the exceptions for rape and incest were struck from the law. Now, it's a much smaller percentage.
    And out-of-state money DOES impact local elections. And out-of-state business and commerce DOES impact Alabama.
    Life in a bubble just doesn't work in this day and age.

    What your missing is the fact that the pro-life movement is also a movement of women. Most men that aren't that concerned with politics really don't care, it is women who have strong beliefs one way or the other. Personally, I think that it should be legal and each state should regulate it as they desire whether that is as you wish or unthinkable beyond a few exceptions. As far as the issue itself, once a child is conceived, it as a living being with potential and intentionally taking away that potential is for all intents and purposes equivalent to murder. On the flip side, pregnancy is a very damaging condition for women that can have huge detrimental impacts on their health besides the obvious impacts on the future. As in most cultural matters, the federal government should not take sides, the farther down the ladder you can legislate the issue the closer that legislation will reflect the desires of the constituency it will affect.

    Of course, but that doesn't mean that I'm wrong nor does it mean that I can't have an opinion. And you f*cking know that.

    I dont think innocent human beings should get the death penalty and I bet many women in Alabama agree

    You could have just left it at that (Bold).

    If you are going to claim or infer that a living human exists at all stages of pregnancy - then back up this claim. You know - do something that involves "thinking".

    Anyone can stand on a stage and spout unsupported claims. Explain yourself.

    They can't back up their claims All of this bullsh*t is based on their religious beliefs. I find it ironic as hell, that the same people who constantly claim that they want the government out of their lives, want government in the sex lives of everyone else, on the idea that somehow, this makes them prolife. They are not prolife - once born, we're back tot he same old tire bullsh*t of no government involvement in health care, no government involvement in education, nothing, zip, nada. They really aren't prolife - they're probirth. After that, poor baby's on their own.

    A statement of hogwash. A decent person does not confuse fetus with baby, a decent person would empower mother and the child at birth for support and training for life.

    I have always found this ironic as well. They claim to care so much for a single human cell at conception... yet when presented with a living breathing human in need -their response is to piss on them.

    We have the right to our own bodies....banning abortion takes away that right...government's job is to protect our rights.

    I don't give a sh*t what label you use, a decent person would not electively take another humans life. The ONLY question in my mind is when the humans' life begins.

    This is funny, I'm not religious at all. Belief in a deity is no requirement for the principled belief that one cannot take anthers life. Oh, and I'm also against big government fwiw.

    This is bullshit. Please explain how making abortion illegal takes away the right to your body (an ideal that I agree with but Americans don't have anyway - AND HAVEN'T FOR SOME TIME!!)?

    It's not suppose to do that.
    It is a ploy to get the issue to the USSC as fast as possible.
    During this window of opportunity the bigots think they have on the court,.
    Also, it appears the bigots want to make this a topic of the 2020 election cycle. They must think they have the public in their corner.

    Death by neglect is still death

    I agree - The right avoids actual debate of the issues like the plague.

    I think Red is barking up the wrong tree if they think banning abortion is going to help them in 2020.

    A decent person never call a fetus a baby. The ONLY question is what is wrong with you.

    Banning abortion by SCOTUS before the 2020 election will turn the GOP into a permanent minority party.

    We have the right not to be punished for the actions of another - as per the rule of law - and equal justice under the law.

    Forcing one person to be responsible for the financial consequences of a unilateral decision to carry an unintended pregnancy to term violates those rights. It is the Gov'ts job to protect our rights.

    You do not give a **** about rights in general - only rights you agree with.

    As usual - you tout fallacious gibberish as if it was fact. What "Child" ? Prove that a single human cell at conception is a child.

    It is you that wants to avoid talking about the facts related to what constitutes a child.

    Oh? So you think I can force another person to give me their heart/blood/kidney/ or any other body part if I need a new one?

    The day we can shove a fetus up your ass and have it continue to grow is the day I'll agree that a fetus isn't part of a woman's body until it's outside of said body.
