Biology is real. Have sex and a baby can appear in your uterus. The GOP didn’t put that baby there so don’t blame a political party for its existence. |
But parents can also give up care if they choose not to "use their bodies" for those newborn. People give up newborn babies every day. |

Stupid argument. Modern medicine is real too. If a zygote is created because birth control failed, there is no valid reason to be hostage to it for the next 9 months, because modern medicine has created safe ways to prevent that process from proceeding. Just because you have religious qualms about a human being *not yourself* declining to gestate a zygote inside their womb does not mean you get to impose your religious beliefs on them and force them to gestate it anyway. |
Rape is real. Incest is real. Maternal mortality is real. So if a woman is raped, she should be forced to deliver the product of her rape? If a woman is sexually assaulted by a family member or spouse, that she should be forced to carry the product of her assault? If a woman is in danger of losing her life, her fertility or be at risk for serious harm or death, she should be forced to go through with the pregnancy possibly sacrificing her life and causing any prior children to become motherless? Because these are real consequences and as we've seen in Texas and Louisiana (among others), doctor's are being threatened with losing their medical licenses, being fined incredible amounts, and possibly incarcerated if they are not absolutely certain of the mother's pending death, if they perform an abortion. Because of this, most physicians are refusing to perform abortions. And because of this, the clauses that Texas lawmakers claim are protections for women are not actually protections in practice. For all intents and purposes, Texas has NO abortion rights at all for any circumstances because they have made it impossible for doctors without a secondary law degree to actually perform abortions. |
If Texas is going to have these draconian rules whereby women who need abortions are denied abortions, and doctors are threatened with losing their medical licenses, being fined, or being imprisoned, I think we need a corresponding law that if a woman who is denied an abortion actually dies or loses her fertility, then the state and the legislature should be able to be sued for damages to the family for the loss of the mother or the loss of the mother's ability to have future children.
Texas lawmakers and judges claim there are protections for women and doctors, when in reality there are none. And they Texas state government is causing grave harm to many pregnant women in the state. |
And unwanted fetuses should be implanted in men. Things that should be but can never and will never be. |
But you are positing a world in which women’s lives have value. In the forced birther cosmology, women’s lives have no value. Dying because of reproduction is God’s gift to that woman. |
Are you saying that political party of corruption in Texas are … the democrats? Really? - not from Texas |
