[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is Harris’ proposed law?

Trump says leave it to the states. Kennedy says point of viability. [/quote]
She probably wants to go back to R v W being the law of the land.  You know.. the decision to be between you and the doctor, and not some lawyer or state government employee.[/quote]
Republicans like women dying for want of a simple surgical procedure, and I think they get hot and breathless at the idea of women trapped with children they don’t want. They think we’ll go back to the pre-Progressive era. [/quote]

Look, I am pro choice but this argument that women get trapped with children they don’t want is a loser IMO.  There is typically a year and a half wait for a couple who want to adopt an infant.  I know - and hugely admire - a handful of women who were brave enough to go through an unwanted pregnancy and give the baby up for adoption. Including one who was raped. Her son is my daughter’s boyfriend. There are options besides being ”trapped” with unwanted children and when we pretend there aren’t, it’s just not persuasive. [/quote]

There's a wait for White infants. There's a good chance unwanted Black babies will end up in the foster system.

More likely adoption scenario, the parent who really can't manage will try for a while but eventually gives up or has the child taken away. If young enough, might get adopted but seriously psychologically damaged. I know two of those kids, adopted at 2, now late teens with really serious problems despite best efforts of loving adoptive parents.

Adoption is not the easy solution the forced-birth faction thinks it is.[/quote]
