Extreme & Radical Rightwingers

[Mike]

OT can add this to his playbook. :roll:

Rep. Debbie Wasserman-Schultz (D-Fla.), chair of the Democratic National Committee, said Thursday that for states to enact constitutional amendments that say human life begins at conception is "an extreme and radical step."

 

[Lonecowboy]

yes that is as radical and extreme right as............. gulp,
........................... Homeschooling!

 

[tumbleweed_texn]

When I was in school they taught us about the tragedies and horrors of the Holocaust and all that that entailed in a bad part of history. But in more modern times ever since Roe V. Wade an untold astronomical number of human lives have been snuffed out because people thought having a child would be inconvenient. And YES, if anyone was questioning if I was really comparing the Holocaust to abortion, I was. Yes the jews suffered and that was a very tragic period of history. Today though, a woman can decide to kill an unborn child on a whim. I personally know one woman who has had 19 abortions at last count. I dont know how she is still alive or how she is even still intact.


If we as a nation and a society can condone the killing of our future because of lack of accountability for our actions and weakening moral standards, we are done for. Everyday this happens allover our country and everyday our children are taught about tragedies that happen elsewhere in the world. They are taught that human rights are something that should be fought for everywhere else but here. Personally I feel that until we clean our own porch we shouldnt be worrying about someone else's.

I do realize that there are circumstances where an abortion is warranted. I do worry though about moral decay and using abortion as another form of birth control.

Have a good evening,
Tex :twisted:

Shouldn't be any significance or even anyone keeping records...But it would be interesting to see the number of anti-abortion Hypocrits that run for the clinics when their sweet young daughter/mistress miss's her period..... :wink:

Mainly I believe its an issue that government/politics should not be involved in- either supporting or opposing...

It- and methods of contraception is an issue that has been around about as long as the worlds oldest profession- and civilization.....

The decision should be left to the individual, their medical advisors/Drs., and their God---- and not by a bunch of rules set up by grey haired old rich men sitting in D.C.

 

[Larrry]

It is all just a bunch of what if's. That is unless you caan say all Dems are pro abortion and all R's are pro life. A waste of time question is all it is.

Well steve to get that 43% they include spontaneous abortions. So if you eliminate them with birth control you would also eliminate the human race in a few years.

if the discussion was about miscarriages I would not have made the comment, but as anyone can see the discussion was about abortions and the sad facts that surround them.. if people who went for an abortion would take a few minutes to go get some sort of birth control it would eliminate a need for unintended unwanted pregnancies..

• Forty percent of pregnancies among white women, 67% among blacks and 53% among Hispanics are unintended.

Each year, two percent of women aged 15–44 have an abortion. Half have had at least one previous abortion.

At least half of American women will experience an unintended pregnancy by age 45,

Forty-six percent of women who have abortions had not used a contraceptive method during the month they became pregnant. Of these women, 33% had perceived themselves to be at low risk for pregnancy, 32% had had concerns about contraceptive methods, 26% had had unexpected sex and 1% had been forced to have sex.

Eight percent of women who have abortions have never used a method of birth control

with the exception of the one percent who were raped,...


wouldn't it just be easier to just use birth control?

 

[Steve]

actually it would only eliminate unwanted pregnancies.

so the race would continue,

Makes too much sense Steve, some will never understand it

Well pardon me for asking, but I thought every thing on this this forum revolved around Democrat or Republican or whether Old timer lied or why Kolo would not meet you at Starbucks. Also it is a puzzle to me that Hypocriteexposer is so interested in what happens in the USA.

No it is about the excesses of the government, it is already proven ot is a liar, and rumor has it kola couldn't make it for coffee because she had an antelope roundup and branding, but the biggest thing is her trust fund check hadn't arrived for the month.

 

[Bullhauler]

actually it would only eliminate unwanted pregnancies.

so the race would continue,

No to eliminate spontaneous abortions you would need to eliminate all pregnancies with birth control.

You skipped right over the trumped up statistic too I see.

since you seem hellbent on taking the far left liberal line of thought and ignoring reality.. I'll rephrase my question.

Wouldn't it be easier for the people who have unwanted pregnancies and go get abortions to eliminate the babies to have first at least tried to get and to just use a readily available birth control devise.. ?
