Doesn't matter if they get out to the polls or not. SC appointments are for life. Once the court is stacked pro-life then no president can change the SC decision. |
Which just flips it back to the states to decide -- buh bye, Republicans! |
I advocate for birth control programs and pre-natal screening -- that's why I support Obamacare and Planned Parenthood! I think all pre-natal and post-natal care should be free. I think that women should get at least 3 months paid parental leave. I think that pregnant women should get paid sick leave to be able to go to their doctor's appointments. This is why I vote for Democrats. This is why I give money to PP. I also advocate for women to be able to control their reproductive health all around. The state doesn't get to force women to go through 9 months of an unwanted or doomed pregnancy and then force them to go through l&d. I suggest you look into the shameful history of Romanian abortion laws and the consequences of forcing women to give birth against their will. Better yet, head down to Chile to see what happens when the state severely restricts women's reproductive freedoms. It's horrifying. As for adoption, you realize that Hillary Clinton was the one who initially pushed for the 1995 Adoption and Safe Families Act, right? What percentage of anti-abortion activists adopt any children? Obviously it's not high enough, because there are still in the hundreds of thousands in the foster care system. p.s. I never mentioned race above, so how is it you bring that up? Is it because of your own racists assumptions about who would want or need an abortion? |
It didn't ithis time. Everybody knew that it was on the line with the death of Scalia and three sitting judges over the age of 75. |

Too many have thought it will never happen. You hear this on these boards all the time. Just like Trump fucker's electoral win, people won't believe it until it happens. |
Actually, it is you who may be racist by advocating for abortions. As you know a disproportionate number of African American women and Hispanic women receive abortions and some in those communities consider abortions a way of thinning that population as Margaret Sanger did. |
I don't advocate for abortions, I advocate for women to be autonomous in their decision as to whether to put their body through 9 months of pregnancy and then labor & delivery. I advocate for the availability of a safe way to end an unwanted or doomed pregnancy for all women who decide they cannot continue it. I also advocate for free pre-natal care, sick leave, and maternity leave for all women who choose to go forward with their pregnancy. As you know, there is a centuries-long history of people trying to control women's bodies, especially the bodies of African-American women. I advocate for women to be able to make up their own minds, because it is patronizing and authoritarian for me to say I can make that decision for someone else. |
NP Is there a safe way to end an unwanted or doomed pregnancy for which you advocate other than abortion? |
I hope you are joking...Do you even know the definition of abortion (i.e. terminate pregnancy)? What you are asking for is an oxymoron... |
There are many unsafe ways to end a pregnancy. Are you advocating for a return to coat hanger, back-alley abortions? |
Glad to see you acknowledge that pro abortion policies disproportionately impacts minorities. You've been killing brown people for many years. |
Are you saying that the women of color who decide to have abortion can't possibly be able to make that decision for themselves? How patronizing are you? |
Why all the debate; it's a moot point. The Trump Supreme Court will overturn Roe v. Wade and then the democratically elected Republican House, Senate, and President Trump will place a Federal ban on all abortion. And since you voted him into office you can't do a fucking thing about it. |
Not sure to whom you are talking but I sure as hell didn't vote him into office. And yes, I and millions of other women will do whatever it takes to ensure that scenario never happens. |
