[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our system of laws puts the rights of certain people before others all the time. I don’t give a flying fart if you think that clump of cells is a human being. Even if I concede it is, which I don’t, my life is more important and damn you to hell for saying it’s not and sending women to their graves because of it.  I mean it sincerely. You will be judged for your political games.[/quote]

What a dumb ass comment. It's not a mainstream position to argue against abortions in case of life or serious health threats to the mother. [/quote]

Are you a dumbass? What do you think overturning Roe will mean?[/quote]

LOL, thanks for showing just how ignorant you are. Overturning Roe simply turns over the issue to the states until a constitutional amendment can be passed that enshrines abortion as a right. If a state passes a complete abortion ban even if the life/health of the mother is in jeopardy, the solution is simple: move. [/quote]

Oh cupcake.

“Move” requires resources. You know that. We know you know that. We know you know you’re only taking rights away from poor women. No one is missing that cleverly concealed point. [/quote]

Poor women seem to have no problems moving between whole countries, so I don't see that it's an insurmountable burden to move to a different state if someone is concerned about their life/health.

For me to take a right away, means the right has to exist in the first place. And that's the whole argument: there is no fundamental right to abortion for convenience. I believe there is a right to abortion to protect one's own life/health but the supreme court has sidestepped that question thus far by trying to navigate around twisted logic to fit Roe in the name of precedence.
