    A woman chooses to terminate a fetus in her body before it develops into a person.

    Stop pretending that a viable human being at 24 weeks is no different from a mindless, microscopic entity at 1 week so that your politicians can arrogate her private, personal decision.

    But abortion is used to kill viable human beings at 24 weeks too.

    No one has to pretend, our own government agrees when it comes to pressing legal charges against those who harm the "microscopic entity". They just allow mothers to harm it themselves as long as a doctor is there because you know... its brave and stunning.

    That's exactly what I was going to post, but I figured it was too elementary for the Behavior Police...

    If an authoritarian fantasizes that a mindless, microscopic entity is a pretext for politicians arrogating the private, personal rights of Americans to the State apparatus, that is what they will claim.

    Is Clarence Thomas for real??

    SNIP
    Have you ever met your wife?

    Yes, it’s an impudent question, but it seems justified by the speech you gave Friday at a judicial conference in Atlanta and a question-and-answer session that followed. In an obvious reference to the bombshell leak of a draft opinion overturning Roe v. Wade, you bemoaned that institutions are being “bullied” and said the judiciary is threatened if people are unwilling to “live with outcomes we don’t agree with.”

    You said this despite the fact that your bride of 35 years, conservative activist Virginia “Ginni” Thomas, made headlines earlier this year when it was revealed she schemed with the Trump White House to keep him in power despite his election defeat. She echoed his baseless claims of fraud and even joined the Jan. 6 mob that rallied to overturn the election, though she claims she broke off from them before they stormed the U.S. Capitol.

    FFS Clarence.... I'm not sure somebody demonstrating that level of obtuseness should be making decisions for this country... In fact, I know they're not...

    Refusing to recognize the undeniable vast difference between a microscopic zygote and a viable fetus is essential for authoritarians to seize personal rights from a woman and arrogate them to an intrusive State apparatus..

    https://fox4kc.com/news/man-charged-with-double-murder-after-shooting-killing-pregnant-woman/

    "A Memphis man has been charged with two counts of first-degree murder after a pregnant woman was shot to death last week, WREG reported."

    Guess it's only a "mindless, microscopic entity" when the mom wants to terminate it.

    So you think it's "authoritarian state" to punish someone who murders unborn baby in a mom's womb? ****ing weird bro.

    Trust me... they don't need much to rationalize treating women like third class citizens... the interesting thing is why women legislators vote to further than goal....

    Hmmmm....would burkas be a good look for women in the deep south?? It's awfully hot down there....

    Yep.... can't have it both ways....1 first degree murder count works for me in that scenario.... should return a pretty serious sentence (or in Tennessee, a city named after him, since he only killed a woman)

    Someone killing a fetus that a woman wants is quite a different matter from a woman terminating her pregnancy before a viable fetus has developed, but rabid authoritarians may refuse to admit to the difference if they can use the tragedy to promote their statist agenda.

    Hmmm but egoboy above you says you can't have it both ways....I do find it interesting the amount of hoops people have to jump through to justify terminating babies. When you think of the actual act, it's not surprising why.

    The authoritarians can't deny that they are hellbent upon stifling a personal freedom that Americans have had for half a century, and arrogating a personal right to statist dictate, a retrogression opposed by most freedom-loving Americans and antithetical to the advances that have been made in advanced, democratic nations - progress that is now spreading to developing nations.

    Iran? Egypt? Hondura? El Salvador? The statists models of Big Government womb control.

    Again a lot of fluff and nonsense to justify aborting babies.

    If you can't deal with Americans supporting a woman's freedom, as is respected in every other advanced democracy, and are thrilled by the authoritarian statism of an Iran, an Egypt, a Honduras, or an El Salvador, you will be delighted with the imminent retrogression in repressive states.

    A woman's freedom is now what you call aborting babies... got it. I get it. It certainly sounds better than just saying you support the killing of unwanted babies.

    "to terminate a fetus"

    Of for the life of me........ :wall:............. yes kill her unborn baby. There is no distinction between what you said and what I said you just have a need to use clinical terms instead of our colloquial everyday language as it if cancelled it out or something, makes the reality go away.
