[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Hit home for me too, OP. When I had my last kid, I had my tubes removed for this very reason. I have plenty of fertile years left, and I just couldn’t chance an oopsie pregnancy given the state of things.

As someone whose family members are going to need living organ donations, though, I really do look forward to the legal possibilities of a post-Roe world. If the state can force a woman to donate her heart, uterus and kidneys for 9 months to save a life, it can also force some pro-lifer to donate an O-Neg kidney or at least their blood to save lives. And if children and fetuses are now public goods, that’s all the ground we need to start rescuing children from their religious wacknut parents. If the Constitution doesn’t expressly provide a right to decide your own family, it certainly doesn’t provide a right to homeschool.

How is forcing you to not kill a life (with kidneys and heart and brain) the same as forcing you to remove one of your kidneys? I’m pro choice (up to a certain point) but this makes no sense.

Makes sense to me in theory neither without the aid of some sort of medical intervention or time and some luck is a self sustaining life. It should be a crime it to save the life of a kidney patient. We need a national registry of those with harvestable clean organs and if some needs in’s and you have two or can spare a piece (liver) you should be forced to give one up. You might be out of commission for a few weeks or months but a life is a life. The liberty of your individual body not a important as you think it is.  Self determination well we all have the right to determine each other’s determinations.

Death if individual liberty… step one. [/quote]

Of course that should be it should be a crime to not save the life of a kidney patient.  End stage renal failure involves a great deal of ongoing pain and suffering.  If one follows the notion that an embryo feels pain, seconds of pain, and push an agenda because if that belief right or wrong then how can you turn your back on a live human, with loved ones and a past and possible future who is suffering excruciating pain for years, months, days and hours.

I want forced registries to benefit for all sorts of medical procedures.  Donor egg registries, plasma, blood, stem cells, kidneys, sperm, arms, fingers, skin, bone marrow.  I want it all.  Down with individual liberty we must think of the greater good. They is the America I want to live in.

Above all else is the right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness.  I mean if we are trashing liberty let’s make it worth it. [/quote]
