You should read more, you aren't representing yourself very well here. Here is the link and some direct quotes from the law: https://www.congress.gov/108/plaws/publ212/PLAW-108publ212.pdf "§ 1841. Protection of unborn children (a)(1) Whoever engages in conduct that violates any of the provisions of law listed in subsection (b) and thereby causes the death of, or bodily injury (as defined in section 1365) to, a child, who is in utero at the time the conduct takes place, is guilty of a separate offense under this section. (2)(A) Except as otherwise provided in this paragraph, the punishment for that separate offense is the same as the punishment provided under Federal law for that conduct had that injury or death occurred to the unborn childs mother. (B) An offense under this section does not require proof that (i) the person engaging in the conduct had knowledge or should have had knowledge that the victim of the underlying offense was pregnant; or (ii) the defendant intended to cause the death of, or bodily injury to, the unborn child. (C) If the person engaging in the conduct thereby intentionally kills or attempts to kill the unborn child, that person shall instead of being punished under subparagraph (A), be punished as provided under sections 1111, 1112, and 1113 of this title for intentionally killing or attempting to kill a human being."
Can you stuff and roast an UNBORN chicken? NO and an UNBORN child is NOT a child and NOT a person. NOW show the part of the law that makes abortion illegal ???
I have lots to say to those who have their head screwed on and 'hooked up' to their brain. You are just flailing your arms and making absurd comments and convictions that have nothing to with reality. I'd rather speak with Cesar Milan's chihuahua than try to get through to your mumbo-jumbo
4 x 5 = 20 weeks. I see math wasn't your strong suit. And it's 0-10% at 21 weeks. - - - Updated - - - Not in my country. And the UVVA only declares them so for the purpose of that law. Any other time, they aren't.
Incorrect. YOU said that Fox doesn't know what women go through in pregnancy and childbirth. The burden of proof is on YOU to prove that she doesn't.
Nope! Almost yhe opposite is true. They always are considered human beings, the law just says it will not prosecute abortion homicides.
It is called human rights not person rights and one of the utmost basic human rights is the right to life now I want to see you deny that the unborn isn't a human
I have NEVER said the fetus isn't human......"misrepresentation" means you don't have much of an argument. Now, can you deny that if the fetus was a person, the only beings with rights, that the UVVA wouldn't be needed?
Uhh... what? No. We are not all born sociopaths. Learn what the term means for God's sake. - - - Updated - - - Sure it is a human. So what? - - - Updated - - - Prove what? They are always humans? They are. So what though? It is legal and moral to kill a fetus if the mother wants to do that.
Wait. Your test to determine surviving without care is to place an individual on a shelf but then limit the ones that can care for themselves by mandating that they can not leave the shelf to take care of themselves? What the hell kind of idiot test is that?
A Human Fetus is obviously human. A human toe nail is obviously human, a Human bowel movement is human and human blood is human. A fetus is an unborn human and the unborn are not people with rights...the Human it lives within is and does.
A human fetus is always "human" but it is not A "human" in the sense it is a person. This can be confusing....or seems to be since some posters have claimed I said the fetus isn't human when I have never said any such thing.
WRONG!!!! The UVVA merely clarifies they are a human being (person, same thing). It specifically says children in utero at any stage of development are human beings and killing them is a homicide (no killing of a non person could be a homicide). So there really is no debate here, they are human beings, persons, and they are protected CLEARLY by the UVVA as human beings. Literally and clearly.
Read the law, I have posted the link multiple times. READ THE LAW! It literally says what I say it says. CLEARLY. https://www.congress.gov/108/plaws/publ212/PLAW-108publ212.pdf - - - Updated - - - It is a human being! That is clearly recognized and literally recognized in the UVVA! There is confusion here, but not on that point!! - - - Updated - - - A human fetus is a human being. That is obvious. Any attempt to claim otherwise is political nonsense.Birth does not create a human being, even abortion laws recognize that fact!
