[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone explain the “if something can’t survive on its own then it is not a big deal to abort its life” philosophy to me? Do you apply the same rationale to newborns, elderly people, and severely disabled people?[/quote]

I’m not aware of any newborns, elderly people, or severely disabled people that need to be tethered to the bodily systems of another human being to survive. Some require organ transplants or blood infusions, but there is no law requiring their friends or family to give it to them.

Heck, in America, a corpse has more rights to its body than a pregnant woman.  [/quote]
It’s this.

PP who’s feigning stupidity, you know we can see through you, right? We cannot compel people to donate blood, pieces of liver, marrow or kidneys. We can’t even take perfectly good live-saving organs after death without the appropriate permission. But forced birthers want to compel women to stay pregnant, and as the Michigan GOP has demonstrated, they want to take away women’s ability not to get pregnant. [/quote]

And parents are forced to provide food and shelter for their newborn babies. You can’t legally bring your newborn home and leave them outside in the cold or refuse to feed them. You are de facto forced to do this for the good of the newborn. Are you okay with that?

I’m really trying to see your logic. [/quote]
Boy, if this is “really trying,” I can see why forced birthers don’t understand much.

Here, take care of this dying woman’s dying fetus. Help her kidneys out. What’s that? You can’t help her? Why not?

Here, take care of this dying woman’s newborn. Thanks for helping out.

Still not there, are you?  :lol: [/quote]
