Title: The Great Abortion Debate
Post by: Anonymous on July 30, 2015, 01:25:10 AM
It all matters. Life is sacred. There is a way to kill for food and not waste. I'm very pro life, my views on that aren't movable and not popular.

Quote from: "Dove"Personally I don't purchase or consume any commercial food....let alone tortured animals. So I'm in the good being repulsed by this senseless slaughter. I'm also repulsed by the selling of baby parts going on as well.

Welcome to a large element of 2015. A lion 10,000 miles away matters. Local baby parts don't


Since when?



Just because the topic is about the slaughter of a lion, it does not follow that contributors are apathetic to other injustices.



If there is an issue with the sale of baby parts, start a thread. Let's see it.



I've never heard of it.

Recently there was a heavily-edited sting video against a women's reproductive and maternal health care organization. They were discussing how much it costs to transport donated fetal tissue. The video made it look like the health care organization was selling baby parts and organs for profit.

That's not the only sting video. They are selling parts. This has been going on for a while, hence multiple sting videos.

Well, that is vile.



What are they doing with the "parts"?

They're not selling parts. It's illegal, and they're not selling parts.



Fetal tissue donation happens all the time. You have the right to be against that but Planned Parenthood isn't selling parts.

QuoteIn a letter to the House Energy and Commerce Committee, Planned Parenthood said it fell victim to a fake company called Biomax Procurement Services that posed as a buyer of human tissues. It was actually created by David Daleiden, an official of the group that released the video, and was engaged in "a campaign of corporate espionage" targeting Planned Parenthood, the letter said.



"A group of extremists who have intimidated women and doctors for years — in their agenda to ban abortion completely — are not 'documenting' misdeeds; they are trying to create them, quite unsuccessfully," Planned Parenthood wrote to lawmakers.



Biomax activities included trying to induce Planned Parenthood centres to sell fetal organs for up to $1,600, the letter said, which would likely violate laws banning commercial fetal tissue sales. Those efforts were rejected, according to the letter.



In addition, the letter says Daleiden was involved in secretly recording Planned Parenthood staff and patients at least 65 times over the last eight years. That could yield thousands of hours of recordings that Daleiden could heavily edit to make false charges, the letter said.

 Yes, they are. It's only a matter of time before they can't dodge this anymore. Of course anyone attempting to expose this is labeled an 'extremist'.  Just like people who are labeled 'conspiracy theorists' who were proved right years down the road. How many videos of price negotiations can be wrote off as "heavily edited"?  And....the process they need to retrieve tissue and parts is horrific. Don't be blind and gullible. Where there is smoke there is fire. These mofos are straight up selling parts. If this was ethical, and for furthering health and human life there wouldn't even be abortions. It's a money maker.

You get women's health care. You get to choose what to do with your body.



And you would take that away from millions of other women. And lie doing it. You should be ashamed of yourself.

Several choices are made before a human life is concieved. You have sex with the knowledge that a pregnancy can happen. That's a choice. Abortion is about selfishly dodging the consequences of the choices you've already made.  Unless you are under some extreme medical duress and you feel abortion is your choice shame on YOU.  I don't believe in taking things away as a means of controlling others. A woman considering abortion doesn't need anymore condemnation and shame.  But I do compassionately advise against it.  And I do believe it should be illegal or at least harder to obtain.

Dove, this is entirely how I feel too about the abortion "choice".



But, could you tell us more about the sale of aborted parts?



I was unaware of that happening.

 Abortion clinics undermine the gravity of the procedure and don't fully inform. They also don't go over the risks or the long term psychological impact.  They don't offer other options or counseling. It's actually pretty ruthless.

Hmmm, interesting perspective.



I've always thought the final choice should be the woman's.



Mind you, the would-be father should at least be informed...if he is around.



Certianly, not a black and white issue.



There's no absolute right or wrong on either side of the argument.

And there you have it folks; Planned Parenthood's contrived alibi. "Oh don't be blaming us. we were tricked into selling baby organs by a bogus company".  "It's not fair" Whaaaaaaaaaaaaaa ....... ac_crying.......ac_toofunny  



Never mind that P. P. was or is in violation of the law against selling or even entertaining the offer of selling fetal body parts. We should just give them a pass because in their view, they got unfairly caught breaking the law. No matter which way they squirm, progressives are just so entertaining with their incredibly childlike excuses.

 No I've had an abortion.  The women I mentor in recovery have had them. In fact, every female at the mission has had one. One of my best friends has had 3. She's attempted suicide because if it.

Late term abortions are illegal in many of your states without medical justification.  Before you call me out, please review your country's legal position, mmmkay.



I'm not a dude either.



Earlier term abortions remain the choice of a woman and are not done using the method in the link you provided.

Your alleged abortion has nothing to do with the health and rights of other women. Console them all you wish. Don't try to take their rights away.



You chose to have an alleged abortion. You get to choose what to do with your body. And now you want to take the very rights you have away from everyone else.



You got everything you wanted! Now you feel all guilty and you want to make up for it by taking it out on people you don't even know! Worry about your own sins.



I'll take it that "Biomax" is a fake company and a lie. Lying is a sin.



Hmm. I'm not lying and I've never had an abortion. Well, who's holier-than-thou now? Sounds like you would be better off taking my advice.

If anyone favours abortion they must believe it is not yet a child that is being murdered..



The women's choice response is immaterial, is it a life or is not..



I am a steadfast believer that it is a child that is being killed and nobody has that special right to take another person's life without a justifiable reason.

Yeah but the question is did David Daleiden break any laws in his gathering of information? Probably not. But did PP break any laws by offering to sell fetal body parts to a bogus company? If it turns out that they actually entertained the concept of selling fetal parts then yes, they are in violation of the law.



If the evidence provided by Biomax (real or not) is legitimate enough to investigate PP then they will be investigated. It matters not how the info was gathered. Arguing who is more moral, the baby killers or the guy trying to shut them down by subterfuge is just ludicrous.

According to PPs response, that didn't happen.  He had 8+ years of footage to play with and it's apparently edited all to hell.  I'll be interested in what comes out during an actual investigation should one even take place.



Biomax Procurement Services is a fake company.  That's been established.  As has it been established that the owner of said fake company lied.  I haven't seen actual proof that abortion clinics or liberals have lied in all of this as Dove claimed.

First, as a male, if you are one, you have no say over ANY woman - file that



Second if she expresses opinion it is her right to do so ... unless the thought police you seem to think you are one of have made it illegal



You mouth off on this issue a lot thinking you are the law and have the duty to put women straight... when as a mere male it is not your place to judge any woman .... unless she get's so pissed off @ your out of place strong come on  tactics that she cuts your balls off ... in which case you have place to judge  .... and in which case  I'll feed them to the wolves and  pay for her lawyer



When you grow a pussy get back to me

He can mouth off as much as he likes and although I don't disagree with some of his points, it leaves a bad taste in my mouth nonetheless.  To me, he reads like a feminist which is to say the only opinion a woman is allowed to have is one that feminism supports.  It doesn't fly with me.

Prefer to be feminine than a feminist.

If you'd bother to quote me properly Romero, I said in my post that you are indeed entitled to your opinion, just as us women are entitled to say, "Hey pal, we don't need your help asserting our reproductive rights."



My point was the chastising that women receive from the feminism bench if women don't agree with their position is unappealing.  Your need to help women by setting other women straight isn't taken as chivalry but rather viewed by some as sexism.

Your alleged abortion has nothing to do with the health and rights of other women. Console them all you wish. Don't try to take their rights away.



You chose to have an alleged abortion. You get to choose what to do with your body. And now you want to take the very rights you have away from everyone else.



You got everything you wanted! Now you feel all guilty and you want to make up for it by taking it out on people you don't even know! Worry about your own sins.



I'll take it that "Biomax" is a fake company and a lie. Lying is a sin.



Hmm. I'm not lying and I've never had an abortion. Well, who's holier-than-thou now? Sounds like you would be better off taking my advice.

We aren't in a society that looks to abortion as a solution to social ills.  Incidentally, the availability of abortion has prevented the births of criminals, amongst numerous other benefits.



Where abortion is not legal ... women suffer, I'll just say that, women suffer.  In Brazil, someone whose story I know, this girl got pregnant four (4) times.  Knowing about how she got pregnant did not stop her from continuing to have unprotected sex.  She had unprotected sex for several reasons - including the prohibitive cost of birth control in her case.  Because Brazil does not allow abortions (//https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_Brazil) - she had someone kick her in the stomach and throw her down stairs, and she took other kinds of medication that were known to cause abortions.  Those pregnancies happened within a few years - I don't know how she's doing now.

There are more abortions, deaths and injuries in countries where abortions are illegal. It's safe and legal in developed countries. It's a horror show in undeveloped countries. Their restrictions have not worked out well in any way whatsoever.



Nobody can actually stop a woman from having the right to choose. If she wants one, she's going to have one. The number of abortions are no less in countries where it's illegal. Legalizing makes it safe and saves lives.



We have to remember that it's not just women deciding they don't feel like having a child. There are hundreds of reasons why, from personal to medical, that the rest of us could never understand.



We can't make that decision for them. It's none of our business.



The number of abortions has actually been dropping in countries where it's legal. Why? Because of legalization, education, and the availability of contraception.



That works. Criminalizing and treating women like they're breeding livestock does not.



In heavily-Catholic, illegal abortion Brazil, approximately 1-3 million women get abortions every year. An estimated 200,000-300,000 are hospitalized for unsafe abortion.



Is that what we want? Show me any country where abortion law is working.

In heavily-Catholic, illegal abortion Brazil, approximately 1-3 million women get abortions every year. An estimated 200,000-300,000 are hospitalized for unsafe abortion.



Is that what we want? Show me any country where abortion law is working.

Legalizing the murder of unborn children saves lives??



Abortion is about taking a life not saving one.


Two (2) lives are present.  There has to be minimally a pregnant woman as well as the foetus.

My 2 Cents.



I would never tell a women what to do with her body, it is HER body to do with it as she pleases.



Now, with that said if i was a female there would be NO WAY in hell that someone would tell me what i can or cant do with my body.



You call it abortion, I call it freedom of body.

What would your life look like if you had that child you aborted?

Does it look like a fake question?  You're talking about solutions to social ills.  How did it change your life?

We have to remember that it's not just women deciding they don't feel like having a child. There are hundreds of reasons why, from personal to medical, that the rest of us could never understand.

We aren't in a society that looks to abortion as a solution to social ills.  Incidentally, the availability of abortion has prevented the births of criminals, amongst numerous other benefits.



Where abortion is not legal ... women suffer, I'll just say that, women suffer.  In Brazil, someone whose story I know, this girl got pregnant four (4) times.  Knowing about how she got pregnant did not stop her from continuing to have unprotected sex.  She had unprotected sex for several reasons - including the prohibitive cost of birth control in her case.  Because Brazil does not allow abortions (//https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_Brazil) - she had someone kick her in the stomach and throw her down stairs, and she took other kinds of medication that were known to cause abortions.  Those pregnancies happened within a few years - I don't know how she's doing now.

Another lie you're telling women who don't deserve to be lied to.


QuoteAccording to a recent study from the University of California, San Francisco, 95% of women who have had an abortion report that they believe doing so was the right decision for them.



The study, published in the academic journal PLOS ONE, surveyed 667 women over the course of three years.



The study evaluated the women's emotional state for three years following their abortions through semi-annual phone surveys that were conducted every six months after their abortions.



The results showed that while 53% of participants felt that the decision to get an abortion ranged from being "difficult" to "very difficult," an overwhelming 95% of women did not regret their decisions.



The women reported positive emotions regarding their abortions, most notably, with "relief" as a predominant emotion.

You're endangering women by lying to them. It's about their health and well-being, not about your guilt.


Quote from: "Dove"I really wish I would have chosen birth control or abstinence, and I wish I would have stepped up and did the right thing.

But for 1.2 billion Catholics, birth control is a sin. How nice for you that you wish you had a choice. Yet when you "console" women, you tell them that they don't get any choice and you lie to them to get your way. Your personal choice is up to you and their personal choice is up to you too!



You're not a doctor. You should leave the "consoling" to professionals without an agenda. At least they know they're not supposed to lie to their clients.

To real people here: Let's get down to the core issue on this subject



This whole issue really comes down to one thing - Does one believe a fetus is a "human life" or "person" -  or not?



Everything else a person feels about the process or argues about it is driven by that and that alone.



Thus for all parties "meaningful" debate or discussion between these 2 opposing positions is impossible.



That's why I "generally" try to stay out of discussions on the topic.



However -  If some clown starts stating personal opinion claims as though they are facts, hurling personal accusations and personal put-downs and  calling people liars when disagreed with,  quoting "selective" stats of convenience, quoting 3rd world stats which by definition have no meaning, playing god etc. I may call him on it.

This is what the 'baby parts' liars are up to. Planned Parenthood provides health care, STD and cancer screenings, breast exams and much more to millions of women.



Defunding Planned Parenthood will endanger millions of women. Who's going to provide those services? Dove?
 I got my IUD at planned parenthood. You don't get breast exams there, you don't get cancer screenings there. There are not doctors there. You see a nurse practitioner. You get birth control, std screenings and abortions at PP.   I'm telling you this as someone who has had their services.  But by all means.. ..keep posting links and ranting about "truth" when youve never experienced any of what I'm talking about. I had to have the IUD removed too, because it wasn't placed correctly and it caused me a lot of problems. Risks that I wasn't properly informed of by them, might I add.

Denying an organization or a company access to tax dollars is not the same as denying services. Another company, or an organization will immediately fill the void. PP is not the only entity capable of doing what it does. Maybe their replacement will provide better service and be less controversial.

They won't be shut down if they lose federal funding.

PP also has never shaken the eugenicist, racist beginnings.

If you think that was ancient history, this happened in 2008.

An anti-abortion group made taped phone calls to a Planned Parenthood office asking if donations could be earmarked to further black women's abortions, because, as the caller put it, "the less black kids out there the better". According to the recording, Planned Parenthood's response was nervous laughter, followed by "Understandable, understandable"

Any organization that made $127 million in excess revenue, and over $1.4 billion in net assets, plus gives a $1.4 million in campaign contributions does not need taxpayer funding. An investigation of it's charitable status yes, but not public monies.



PP is able to open clinics in poor areas where other organizations cannot because it has a budget that other organizations lack.

But don't tell me what to do with my own body. The majority of pro lifers are doing it for religious reasons. Don't push your religion on me. Christianity isn't the only religion in the world. People have different opinions on when life begins. That's why it should be a 'choice'. Remember, choice doesn't mean you are pro abortion. It simply means you accept that it should be an individual's choice.



I do agree that there needs to be more psychological support for people who need it. Sadly, the majority of people can't afford it. Some people are able to get an abortion and be fine afterwards. Others have deep emotional trauma.



Because no two people are alike. It's really that simple.

There are health organizations that are willing to provide equal or better health care to women without wasting the people's money on political donations and expensive advertising..

That still qualifies as being non profit.

PP is an abortion / prog political tool from top to bottom .. which is why progs will die protecting it



As to parts, many  long video versions are out now, with new stuff every day now ... more than Q & his progs can slough off with their usual derision tactic ... they are circling the wagons now like never before  and will use ANYTHING to protect it

She's been wrong about many things in the course of this thread from abortion laws to the extent of services offered by Planned Parenthood.  I don't overlook that because she's a woman with a position that differs from mine.

Quote from: "ghost"Well I'll throw in my 2 cents.



Against abortion? Pro life? It's simple. Don't have an abortion.



But don't tell me what to do with my own body. The majority of pro lifers are doing it for religious reasons. Don't push your religion on me. Christianity isn't the only religion in the world. People have different opinions on when life begins. That's why it should be a 'choice'. Remember, choice doesn't mean you are pro abortion. It simply means you accept that it should be an individual's choice.



I do agree that there needs to be more psychological support for people who need it. Sadly, the majority of people can't afford it. Some people are able to get an abortion and be fine afterwards. Others have deep emotional trauma.



Because no two people are alike. It's really that simple.

Hello ghost, it's nice to see you again..



You said what I mentioned that the only way one can be in favour of abortion is if you believe the unborn child is not yet a person..



For those of that do believe the child is a person, it's murder, for those that don't it's about rights.


Hey Fash,

Hope you're well.



Yes, I understand the difference between rights and murder.



But as humans, we justify murder all the time. People are murdered and we think it's acceptable.



War. Self-defense. Death penalty. The Crusades. Genocide. Just to name a few.



What about the pro lifers who kill abortion doctors? They justify that it's okay to kill the doctor because it's saving lives.



I don't buy into the 'murder' argument.

We are doing ok despite the current economic slow down in Alberta..



I understand justifiable homicide and it was mentioned in this thread..



My husband would kill anyone that would want to harm his family..



I think we can all agree that if someone crushed the spinal chord of a baby that was born one second ago, it would be murder, not justifiable homicide



In my opinion it should be no different than if it happened seven months earlier..



But, I don't understand your point about pro life people that kill abortion doctors?



If the abortion performing doctor threatened the lives of someone, they would be justified in protecting themselves.

My point is that there are other organizations that could offer health services to women particularly in low income and without wasting resources on political donations.

The bill isn't expected to garner the 60 votes needed to advance, as nearly all Democrats object to it. Its defeat, however, won't end the effort to cut off federal money for Planned Parenthood.

This is what the 'baby parts' liars are up to. Planned Parenthood provides health care, STD and cancer screenings, breast exams and much more to millions of women.



Defunding Planned Parenthood will endanger millions of women. Who's going to provide those services? Dove?


Translation: The sky is falling, the sky is falling!!!!!!! :crazy: leftwing blather.  



PP is not part of the US government and is in no way deserving of the tax dollars it sucks up each year. For the most part it is a so-called not for profit organization and lobbying group aligned with the far left agenda. The US government has no business funding it with taxpayer money and just for the record.....I feel that way about ANY non-governmental agency.



Like so many other drains on the government trough, it's nothing but a social activist organization that operates off of the taxpayer's back. I say fuck that shit, cut them loose and see if they can float without sticking their hands in the combined wallets of the US taxpayer.

I dislike that predictable scaremongering that I've read from PP supporters. It's dishonest and insulting to all Americans. Life will go on for everyone as per usual if that organization stopped receiving a single tax dollar. Women's health will not be in crisis. PP's ability to meet it's bills will be, but not the health of American women.

You sure it won't become more difficult for woman (mostly teens) to access reproductive health care services if PPs shut down?


Under Ocare PP is obsolete. Reproductive health and abortions are covered under the gov insurance plans. So why do we need to pay taxpayer money for a redundant service like PP. It belongs in the shitter with the rest of the tax sucking programs that left-wing policies have kept alive for the past 50 years.

Quote from: "Romero"
Quote from: "Wulf"Under Ocare PP is obsolete. Reproductive health and abortions are covered under the gov insurance plans. So why do we need to pay taxpayer money for a redundant service like PP. It belongs in the shitter with the rest of the tax sucking programs that left-wing policies have kept alive for the past 50 years.

Quote from: "RW"But now with Obamacare, can't they depend on their doctors instead?

Millions of women don't have Obamacare, and for many Planned Parenthood is the better option. Millions aren't depending on PP for no reason.


Under O-shithead's signature piece of legislation EVERYONE in the US should be covered under some kind of insurance by 2018, those that aren't, will be fined. That's O-care.



 If you think it's such a worthwhile organization then I suggest you and your kind dig into your vaginas or wherever you keep your nickles and dimes and fund it yourselves.



PP needs to be stripped of taxpayer dollars now. It should be sink or swim time for that outdated redundant tax sucking turd. It's an obsolete holdover from the mid 20th century and it's usefulness has run its course.

There you go, services no longer required. Consider the last half billion severance.

QuoteIf you've been keeping score at home, you'll have noticed that not one but two states, including a red state with a paleoconservative governor, have in the past several days exonerated Planned Parenthood of any wrongdoing in the so-called secret-video sting that has conservatives calling on Congress to defund the non-profit organization. The appropriate response to this news is, "Of course! Because Planned Parenthood is absolutely not selling fetus parts via some sort of grisly underground marketplace." For many, especially on the right, no amount of fact-checking will ever be enough. But for the sake of the public record, let's review those exonerating reports again here.



Last week, Massachusetts' Attorney General Maura Healey became the latest in what's sure to be a long list of state attorneys general to conclude the same thing. Specifically, Healy concluded,



"Over the past week, my office has conducted a thorough review and found that Planned Parenthood League of Massachusetts' health care centers are fully compliant with state and federal laws regarding the disposition of fetal tissue. Although donation of fetal tissue is permissible under state and federal law, PPLM does not have a tissue donation program. There is no evidence that PPLM is involved in any way in the buying or selling of tissue. As such, our review is complete."



Sure, Massachusetts is a leftward-leaning state, but Indiana is very much not. Back on July 16, Gov. Mike Pence, R-Ind., launched an investigation of Planned Parenthood following the release of what was obviously a doctored and misleading video. The probe focused on facilities in Indianapolis, Bloomington and Merrillville, and this past week the Indiana Department of Health reported it was "unable to find any non-compliance with state regulations. Therefore, no deficiencies were cited."



But it's good to know that small government conservatives — conservatives who routinely frown upon wasteful government spending — have successfully prompted frivolous investigations in 12 states, including deeply red ones, all based on obviously fraudulent videos. All in all, South Carolina, Florida, Tennessee, Massachusetts, Kansas, Missouri, Arizona, Indiana, Ohio, Georgia, Texas and Louisiana are in the process of or have concluded completely unnecessary investigations.

Planned Parenthood president Cecile Richards has said her organization conducts tissue donations in "less than five" states. But no one — not from Planned Parenthood, its state affiliates or companies that procure the stem cells — will disclose the states where this happens.It would seem that neither Indiana nor Massachusetts are one of the states where they have "donations".



I cannot believe this statement from the salon source.

400,000 pap tests and 500,000 breast exams every year. I guess that's just something fun to do for all those women, eh? Getting a pap test is like going to a matinee.

Planned Parenthood does not guarantee women's rights, the constitution does. Women's health will not be jeopardized when an obsolete organization like PP loses it's funding as it should.



You are in no position to determine if a crime has not been committed. This is why police investigate, to make that determination. Salon is obviously a court of public opinion not a law enforcement agency.



Did you know there is a fine line on laws regarding fetal tissue? It is illegal to sell fetal tissue, donations are legal. American law allows for "reasonable" fees to cover the group's costs of donating the tissue. PP does not have to disclose the fetal tissue donation locations. There are no regulations for what brokers charge researchers, either.

Why is it so hard to figure out? Either they need to go to PP, or - oh wait, that's it. They're not going for no reason. "I feel like getting a breast exam today!"



Many working women can't go to the doctor on work days. Most PP offices are open evenings and Saturdays.



Some women need emergency contraception. Can't wait for a doctor's appointment for that kind of thing.

 First off, not every pp does breast exams. And you STILL have to pay for their services.  I wouldn't take my daughters to planned parenthood. I'd take them to a real OB/gyn where you get those services. Planned Parenthood doesn't hold the key to health care, even if you are a medicaide recipient. You really don't know what you are talking about. Planned Parenthood shouldn't receive government funding. Period.

Planned Parenthood can simply be the best option for many. They have their reasons.



2.7 million women and men every year. 700 health centres. 400,000 Pap tests, 500,000 breast exams, 4.5 million tests and treatments for sexually transmitted infections, and educational programs and outreach for 1.5 million each year.



With those kinds of numbers, you think regular doctors can take that all in? It's not like the average doctor is just sitting around with nothing to do, waiting for patients to walk in. Wouldn't 2.7 million more visits and hundreds of thousands more tests and treatments overload the system?



If those millions could just walk into their neighbourhood's doctor office and receive affordable health care, they would. Not everyone can wait a couple of weeks, travel miles away, go during the workday, afford the fees...



You may as well be asking why people go to any health clinic. Why do health clinics exist? Can't they just go to their doctor at 8pm?

I've explained what the answer is. There's an obvious need for PP's services. Millions of women have millions of reasons why. If there's a provider, then there must be a demand. Just like health clinics, sports clinics, going to the ER instead of the doctor... why single out only Planned Parenthood?



There are 68 Planned Parenthood affiliates here in Canada. By population, that's comparable to the US. Gee, why do people need them if they can just see a doctor? Because they need to. It's no big mystery or conspiracy.

I've explained what the answer is. There's an obvious need for PP's services. Millions of women have millions of reasons why. If there's a provider, then there must be a demand. Just like health clinics, sports clinics, going to the ER instead of the doctor... why single out only Planned Parenthood?



There are 68 Planned Parenthood affiliates here in Canada. By population, that's comparable to the US. Gee, why do people need them if they can just see a doctor? Because they need to. It's no big mystery or conspiracy.

Quote from: "Dove"It's amazing how I've managed to get health care without ever setting foot in planned parenthood.  The only service I ever had there actually wound up making me need a real health care provider to clean up the mess pp made of my uterus. I still have rights, too. I can work, vote, get birth control and other services....all without planned parenthood. Go figure.

How did PP make a mess of your uterus if you never stepped foot in one?  Careful with your words hon.
 Careful with how you read my words?  I think it's pretty clear what I said. I didn't say I never set foot in one. I said it's amazing I received women's health care without ever setting foot in one. Meaning.....I was and am completely able to get health care without planned parenthood. Or income.

Oh I can read.  You said you never stepped foot in one then you said the only service you ever had there required real health care.  Again, how could you have had service provided there without ever stepping into one?  It makes no sense.
So you intend to force the meaning you derived from my statement and thusly tell me what I said and expect me to answer a question based on your interpretation of my words?  No. This question doesn't apply to what I said and I'm going to ignore it if it's asked again. I'm sorry my post confused you.

You contradicted yourself in plain English in the same post.
 Do you understand what I was saying yet?  I'll clarify. I've received health care just fine without planned parenthood.  The one time I did go, I had an iud inserted and a real doctor had to save me from the mess that place made. Better?

Yes, we figure you had been there despite your original sentence.

Now what happens if Planned Parenthood is found innocent of the alleged crimes?

QuotePlanned Parenthood Was Defunded by Texas: Here's What Congress Can Learn



The number of women served by clinics within the Texas Women's Health Program dropped significantly between Fiscal Years 2011 and 2013, when the funding changes took effect. According to a Texas Health and Human Services Commission study, there was an average 25 percent drop statewide, with two of 11 HHSC regions reporting more than 50 percent drops.



As a result of this change, some Texas patients had trouble finding alternate sources of family planning and women's health, in part because other providers in their area had not previously been providing specialized family planning services and had to first get expensive, time-consuming training in those areas.



"That high quality family planning is very difficult to integrate into primary care without specific programs to do that," Dr. Janet Realini, the chair of the Texas Women's Healthcare Coalition, a coalition of organizations working to assure access to preventive women's care.



Rep. Jim Keffer, a Republican state senator in Texas who worked on the defunding measures, also acknowledged that the state is still working to address lost provider capacity.



"As Planned Parenthood has been going through their spiral here, we have been bolstering what Texas can offer through this other network," Keffer said. "You can't just close it off and wipe your hands of the situation because comprehensive women's health care has to still be provided."



A related issue is that some women might not go to a general practitioner -- even one that introduced family planning into their practice -- because they prefer going to a specialist.



"Some women prefer to go to dedicated family planning providers to get dedicated contraceptive services," said Amanda Stevenson, a researcher at the University of Austin's Texas Policy Evaluation Project working on the impact of excluding Planned Parenthood from the Women's Health Program in Texas.



Stevenson noted a 2013 review from the Guttmacher Institute, a reproductive health policy group, which found that women say they prefer going to specialists for this care because of "the respectful, confidential, affordable and high-quality care they receive from them."

Nothing but more of the same misleadings and hoaxes. Many people don't want women to have health care and the right to choose. Ever.



This has been going on for decades. Planned Parenthood has always been a target against women's health and rights.

Just like you did.
 Okay, let me ask you this. How are babies made?  Do you understand that process? Setting aside rape, does the woman make a choice whether or not to have sex with the understanding that sex is how babies are concieved?  Or do you convientantly overlook the several choices already made before you have an unwanted pregnancy? And don't use me as an example....I already went through years of grief and damage that could have been avoided if I used my power of choice wisely. I made the choice to be reckless and dodge responsibility and paid the price, as have several others. Don't assume us pro life women haven't personally shook hands with this demon, unlike you.

I get that and in fact have come to expect that from you.



It is a good quality, but as everything in life there are limits .. points at which one needs to just say "OK, this person is  hard-coded and cannot hear other individuals plus sees his prog and PC coding as absolute truth that MUST be defended and thus will use any tactic in vain attempts to protect  his "absolute truth". He lives within  an endless string of sites that continually update his programming and further tell him what to say when presented with simple logic / reality that is counter to his coding .. how to fight the non believers. That is why he will use any tactic.



This PP is a great example of that. It is not in his country and he knows only what his programmers tell him. Yet he is compelled to fight for it, "it" as he has seen on sites designed to program what is right and how tho fight disbelievers. PC Progisnm is a life or death religion  to him. He believes, cannot hear anything that dents it  and  cannot stop himself from doing everything possible to defend it.  



He will not stop no matter what logic is presented.



He tries everything on me too. Once I have made my point and called him on his desperate sleazy tactics, and if I am in "smart mode", I just walk away and let him babble to himself. Of course that leaves him thinking he has won, but everyone else knows that all he has done is make a total fool of himself and shown the level of tactics he will stoop to.

We can't pretend Planned Parenthood does nothing and is of no value to women.  That would be disingenuous.  And cc, that info about New Hampshire pulling funding without investigation is not only stupid, it's wrong in so many ways.



Planned Parenthood has come into question for its tissue distribution and any monetary settlement that comes from that.  I see people failing to recognize that these fetuses are being removed at the request of a woman and that tissue donation is used in valuable medical research.  The alternative is the incinerator.



Now what would happen to a "normal" business found violating statute?  A warning?  A fine?  I bet it isn't a huge public shaming prior to the facts being determined.

We can't pretend Planned Parenthood does nothing and is of no value to women.  That would be disingenuous.  And cc, that info about New Hampshire pulling funding without investigation is not only stupid, it's wrong in so many ways.



Planned Parenthood has come into question for its tissue distribution and any monetary settlement that comes from that.  I see people failing to recognize that these fetuses are being removed at the request of a woman and that tissue donation is used in valuable medical research.  The alternative is the incinerator.



Now what would happen to a "normal" business found violating statute?  A warning?  A fine?  I bet it isn't a huge public shaming prior to the facts being determined.


It depends entirely on the "Normal" business. I believe a business funded by taxpayers solely as part of a sociopolitical agenda would receive the same kind of scrutiny by the opposition and the taxpayers who were opposed to said business feeding at the gov trough.



Also, what I or most people would consider a "normal" business would be private industry or private commercial venture. The issue of government funding would be moot and they would be subject to whatever laws an regulations apply.

All organizations are answerable to the same statutes and regulations.



But tell me, what court would render culpability without even so much as an investigation?  The answer is none.  Why do you tolerate such knee jerk reactions from your government?

To my knowledge the only knee jerk reaction came from NH. New Hampshire and Vermont in general have always been a bit flighty. Besides I see nothing wrong with defunding PP while it is under investigation. You know my stance on funding that redundant turd in the first place. Anything that gets an organization that is not attached to the gov out of the taxpayer trough is a good thing. You seem to be missing the fact that organizations like PP are a drain on the system. It doesn't matter what they are accused of, the organization is like a VCR it is out of date and those still using that technology need to switch to the up to date system. If Obamacare as bad as it is, is that system,.....then so be it.



Why is it always the left that screams PROGRESS and they have no problem demanding that people fall in line with their social vision but for issues and organizations that fit in with their agenda, regardless of how out-dated they are, they automatically become "sacred cows" and cannot be touched? They use this tired and worn out argument that it will "hurt the little people" but they conveniently ignore the fact that they hurt people by cancelling their existing healthcare and supplanting it with a system that costs three times as much and provides less care. The whole argument behind keeping crap like PP is leftist bullshit and just an excuse to continue to suck money from the general tax fund to feed their pet lobbies.

True. That's part of it.



What doesn't seem to get mentioned is that it has always been a Demo party operative .. .. not just donating to Demo candidates (like wtf?)  but out there in the field campaigning for Demos



That's the real reason it is a Demo "sacred cow"



They are NOT out for women's rights. They are put for their own election t o office and survival to stay in office

I'm not sure why PROGRESS is some leftist value.  I figured we all wanted to make progress but we had different ideas of what it looks like and how it's made.



In a perfect leftist world, the U.S. would have universal state healthcare without the use of insurance providers.  The trouble is, your system is far too capitalist and it would decimate an entire industry.  Instead, it was passed with the need of the righties to agree and ended up as a janked attempt at compromise.  



The trouble with many things that fall under capacity building type endeavours like Planned Parenthood is there is no plan for self sustainability.  If the truth be told, it would make fiscal sense to allow PP to recoup costs by selling tissues.



The other thing that fails to happen is independent review, survey, and evaluation of program effectiveness.  If it's working or not working, it should be demonstrable.

Wrong, the right did not need to agree or compromise on anything. They might as well not even have been consulted.  Obamacare are was passed and signed while the dems were in control of both houses of congress. The monster that was given birth to was wholly a left-wing creation.



As far as "progress" is concerned, the left uses it as a rallying cry while they don't even know the meaning of the word. In the context of leftist ideology actual "progress" becomes a casualty of their agenda. It's a lie sold to the great unwashed to disguise their political motives.

^^Do you mean this?

We aren't in a society that looks to abortion as a solution to social ills. Incidentally, the availability of abortion has prevented the births of criminals, amongst numerous other benefits.



Where abortion is not legal ... women suffer, I'll just say that, women suffer. In Brazil, someone whose story I know, this girl got pregnant four (4) times. Knowing about how she got pregnant did not stop her from continuing to have unprotected sex. She had unprotected sex for several reasons - including the prohibitive cost of birth control in her case. Because Brazil does not allow abortions (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion_in_Brazil) - she had someone kick her in the stomach and throw her down stairs, and she took other kinds of medication that were known to cause abortions. Those pregnancies happened within a few years - I don't know how she's doing now.

 We don't "think" an unborn baby is fully human. An unborn baby IS fully human....and it's sociopathic to think otherwise.

An unborn baby is not a human before it has developed into one.  It is not a human at the beginning of the pregnancy - at that point it's a mass of dividing cells without any brain development.  Less intelligence than a tasty lobster.

Some say it's absolutely NOT a baby / human life / or whatever they wish to call it



Everyone is sooooo sure  ... and most always in absolute terms one way or the other



Well, let me weigh in ... how about "we have no way to know scientifically if it is or is not".



As in "Scientifically I don't know" one way or the other .. cause I don't ....and scientifically speaking, NO ONE else does



As to proof of that, if science knew there would be no issue on it

Quote from: "asal" I won this debate with a knock out on page 4.  Why are posters still discussing it?

Liker hell you have. Have I missed something or did Dove and Fash suddenly believe life does not begin at conception. You and Romero have your heads so far up your asses, you can't read. Those two see abortion as legally sanctioned murder, not a basic human right. I disagree with them, but unlike you and Romero I know how futile it is to argue the point with someone who thinks an unborn baby is fully human.
 We don't "think" an unborn baby is fully human. An unborn baby IS fully human....and it's sociopathic to think otherwise. In fact, abortion being so readily available has done nothing but degrade society to the level of rutting sociopathic beasts who believe their personal happiness and choices trump everything else. We are calloused, not enlightened.


An unborn baby is not a human before it has developed into one.  It is not a human at the beginning of the pregnancy - at that point it's a mass of dividing cells without any brain development.  Less intelligence than a tasty lobster.



Pretty sure I won this debate on page 4.

I strongly disagree asal..

Answer to cc:  Five (5) months.  I googled:  //http://www.biologyreference.com/La-Ma/Life-Cycle-Human.html


QuoteOn the twenty-second day after fertilization, a simple tubelike heart begins to beat. The embryo has no other working organs: the first brain activity will not begin for five more months. But in just one more month, all the major organs will have formed in miniature, including tiny eyes and ears, liver, and kidneys. These organs do not work, but they are there. Once all the organs have formed, the individual is called a fetus.

1.Abortion is moral - it is the destruction of developing cells without consciousness or any form of brain.  

2.Abortion is the socially responsible choice that we all benefit from - less unwed mothers being a social financial burden.  Less children born into poverty.  Less young women being unable to achieve financial stability - or at least postponing being a financial burden on society.  Less burden on men that also need time to achieve financial stability.

3.Developing cells do not have brains or any form of consciousness.  

4.The body might decide on its own to terminate a pregnancy if the conditions of the pregnancy or genetic development are unfit.



What is the problem?  I already won this debate on page four (4) when there were 12 minutes of silence at which point I declared a knock out.

It is alive.  No disagreement.  A human zygote - sure.  But not a person.  Not self aware and that is not moot - that is significant.  It is alive - it is a foreign object that the body may choose to destroy on its own.  When that destruction happens - when a fertilized egg is absorbed into the uterine lining - it is completely natural.

It's not that miscarriage makes abortion justifiable - but it helps me to understand it as moral, and I thought it might work in the argument for other people to understand that these things happen naturally anyways.

No. Abortion never occurs until a woman knows she's pregnant and typically doctors will not do it until 7, 8 weeks gestation because it's unsafe to do it sooner.

No. Abortion never occurs until a woman knows she's pregnant and typically doctors will not do it until 7, 8 weeks gestation because it's unsafe to do it sooner.


But the drug (Mifepristone) blocks progesterone and causes miscarriage? It's also over the counter or simply requires a quick GP visit and script in a great number of countries these days. I've heard a lot of anti-abortion proponents say that life begins at conception. Mifepristone works up to 7-9 weeks. To say that until a woman has been verified pregnant, they're not with child, et cetera, seems odd to me.



Menstrual periods get missed for most pregnant women in that time frame, as in, nonexistent. They cease. Unprotected or poorly protected sex followed by up to two months of no regular menstrual flow is pretty much a good indicator of a possible pregnancy (besides the swollen bits and mood changes).



I'm pro choice but pro life as well. When I ask that you explain yourself further, I'm asking that you isolate that moment where religious people who are against aborting life can rationalize life. If I were to sleep with a dozen Somali teenagers in Noble Park tonight and took RU486 at the chemist first thing tomorrow morning when they open, is that abortion? If I had a romantic interlude aside from my marriage and missed a period by a few days then took RU486, is that abortion? What if hubby and I didn't use a condom 3 weeks ago and I'm weeks late still?

 There is plan B, which stops conception. Then there is the abortion pill. You can't be pro choice and pro life....that makes no sense.  The plan b pill is supposed to be taken the very next morning after possible conception to stop conception....it wasn't intended to be used up to several weeks. If you and hubby didn't use a condom, go take the pill the very next morning. You don't sit on that and wait to see if your oops created a life. You and hubby understand that by having sex, you just may create a life, right?

Technically it's not murder.  It's not "murder" because murder is a legal term defined as "unlawful killing".  Since abortion up to a certain stage is lawful, it cannot be called murder.

Quote from: "Wulf"So if abortion is not murder, then why when a pregnant woman is tragically killed in a homicide, the perpetrator runs the risk of being slapped with double murder or manslaughter charges?



It seems to me that as a society we want it both ways. Is one form of murder okay and sanctioned by the state while another isn't? Doesn't exactly sound right, does it?
 It's murder if you want the baby. It's a terminated clump of cells if you dont. This, of course, makes zero sense.

Technically it's not murder.  It's not "murder" because murder is a legal term defined as "unlawful killing".  Since abortion up to a certain stage is lawful, it cannot be called murder.

That is so sick.

Why is it sick?  Because definitions don't match your word choices?

Murdering babies before they are even born?



Anything that sick does not need an explanation.

This is one of the methods used to murder unborn babies.



Suction-Aspiration

In this method, the cervical muscle ring must be paralyzed and stretched open. The abortionist then inserts a hollow plastic tube with a knife-like edge into the uterus. The suction tears the baby's body into pieces. The placenta is cut from the uterine wall and everything is sucked into a bottle.

The Unborn Victims of Violence Act passed by the US Congress in 2004 defines a fetus as "a child in utero" and as a person. It makes no distinction regarding term of the fetus. However, It does have a provision that exempts abortion.



It is a fucked up double standard where murder of a unborn life by the state is sanctioned BUT injury or killing by someone other than the state or state regulated personnel is not. This is just sick. It all boils down to the fact that it is okay for the government to give permission to their pet flunkies to kill the unborn but if Joe Asshole Wife Beater pushes his prego bitch down a flight of stairs and she miscarriages, he is in a whole new world of shit. It just went from domestic assault to fucking murder faster than the fat bitch could roll down the stairs.

It seems to me that as a society we want it both ways. Is one form of murder okay and sanctioned by the state while another isn't? Doesn't exactly sound right, does it?

If abortion is murder, should women who get abortions be sentenced and jailed as murderers? Is Dove a murderer since she got an abortion? Should she have served time in prison?



What about abortion in cases of rape and incest? If abortion is murder, should rape and incest victims who get abortions be considered murderers? Or do they get the right to choose? What if a woman simply claims she was raped? Would rape victims have to prove they were raped?



How about abortion in cases of medical necessity. There might be a 90% chance the mother and child may die, or it may be just a 10% chance. So who gets to draw the line? Who gets to decide for the doctor and patient? What if there was high chance only the mother would die? Should she be forced to give birth when she would likely die as a result? Who gets to decide that?



Rape and incest victims should have the right to choose. Doctors and patients should have the right to choose. Well, that's exactly what happens when abortion is legal.



Surely many here agree with me that abortion should be allowed in cases of rape, incest and health. But many in the pro-life movement still consider those exceptions as murder.



When just one person gets to personally decide on women's rights and health, everyone else wants to jump in with their own judgements and restrictions. It would never stop. Is birth control murder? Some people think it is.



It should be up to a doctor and patient. Any woman could have a hundred reasons why she should have the right to choose and we should mind our own business. We have no right telling women we don't even know that we know what's best for them. We have no idea what they're going through or what their personal and medical reasons are.



The vast majority of women having abortions aren't doing so because they're "selfish" and "don't feel like having a baby". They've got reasons why we could never understand.



The vast majority of doctors and medical associations do know what's best. They know pro-choice is the only way to go.



Criminalizing the right to choose, women's rights and health, does not work. Again, show me any country where it does. Women are going to get abortions whether it's legal or not. They can get them safely, or they can suffer. It's a horror show for women in countries where abortion is illegal, yet they still have at least as many abortions where it is legal.

I think most people and that includes most women, are pro-choice but they abhor the act of abortion.



Why....because deep down, they know it is morally wrong.



As for who promotes abortion, I think we need look no further than our very own male feminist, code pink, douche. He obviously thinks it's wonderful and some kind of an inalienable right to be able to legally kill the unborn. To people like Romero the boogie man of back ally abortion is so frightening that they can't sleep at night but yet the idea of doing the exact same thing in a more clinical setting where the gov gives a thumbs up is A-Okay.



It's a sick mentally that all progressive must adhere to so that they can justify the act of abortion. Abortion, no matter where it is done or under whatever circumstance, legal or not, is an unsavory, act of barbarity. Anyone with an ounce of a conscience or morality knows this. Even if you believe it to be a women's right to choose, morality dictates that you have to recognize that it is a heinous act.

Anyone can make the decision to have one given their state of mind or perticular circumstance at the time. No can be the judge of what runs thru a desperate woman's mind during such a time. It's how you feel about doing it that makes the difference. Progressives will just say it's just a lump of tissue and move on while others will not be so cavalier about it. You should know and understand this by now.



I can appreciate that you, as a liberal don't like having the finger pointed at you but that's too bad. It's the left that pushes abortion and the far left that promotes it as something other than a last resort. That's simply reality.



I'd like to say to you, get your head out of your ass on this aspect of the issue but wouldn't be nice. But please don't try to argue that hot button social issues like abortion, DON'T fall along ideological lines. It would be very foolish.

Though my pregnancy was planned, events in my life at the time caused me to be very upset toward the last few months of my pregnancy and I nearly lost the baby and I nearly did not survive it. As a result, baby had to be born 2 months early, and I was in intensive care unit.

 Rape and extreme circumstances aside. People always throw this bullshit our there in defense of abortion when most the abortions performed are not even related to rape or a medical issue.  When you are sexual assulted, you typically get a plan b pill along with your rape kit. We all have a responsibility to take care of ourselves.  Are you going to sit at home for several weeks after a sexual assulted to see if you got pregnant from it, then peruse a further trauma like abortion? Unless you are being held hostage you need to seek medical treatment asap, a rape kit.  Not just for yourself but all the future potential victims including the fetus, which is also a victim.

You could choose to go closer to one of the endpoints and just keep calling them gametes right through until they're born, or turn 40, or whatever point.


The tissue growth that begins at conception is human. If it wasn't, the end result would be something else. To deny that fact is just shuffling the moral side of the argument under the rug.

It is human tissue growth.  Conceded.  Is it "helpless human" tissue growth?

Quote from: "RW"It isn't a pleasant act that's for sure.  I don't think it sits well with anyone.  I don't know why we pretend it does when someone says he/she is pro-choice.



Check yourself on the progress/lefty bullshit Wulf.


I'm sorry but those who can live with idea that terminating human life is a good thing are predominantly those that subscribe to progressive/liberal ideology. I don't think you will find many conservatives or even many moderates that are as okay with the concept of legalized abortion as you will in the liberal/progressive community.



Is that really too difficult for you to swallow?

Odd that the only person who has admitted to an abortion on this board strikes me as neither liberal or progressive.



Please don't let reality hit you in the ass on your way out dear.


Odd that that same person is so vehemently against abortion. If you bothered to read some of my previous posts you would realize that I'm not talking about those that have had abortions but those that think they are no big deal.



Anyone can make the decision to have one given their state of mind or perticular circumstance at the time. No can be the judge of what runs thru a desperate woman's mind during such a time. It's how you feel about doing it that makes the difference. Progressives will just say it's just a lump of tissue and move on while others will not be so cavalier about it. You should know and understand this by now.



I can appreciate that you, as a liberal don't like having the finger pointed at you but that's too bad. It's the left that pushes abortion and the far left that promotes it as something other than a last resort. That's simply reality.



I'd like to say to you, get your head out of your ass on this aspect of the issue but wouldn't be nice. But please don't try to argue that hot button social issues like abortion, DON'T fall along ideological lines. It would be very foolish.

It's funny when you look at statistics as to who is having these abortions that the left supposedly pushes it paints a different picture.



At no point have I said an abortion is no big deal.  I said it's not murder because dennotatively speaking, it's not.



Unlike most, if not all of you, I know what a developing fetus looks like at many weeks along the way, including early stages like 6 weeks.  I even have pictures.  Good luck identifying what is in the image as a human baby.  That is reality Wulf not Liberal posturing.

Quote from: "Dove"
Quote from: "Azhya Aryola"If I got pregnant due to a rape, I will not be endangering myself by carrying to term a pregnancy when I am emotionally upset and distraught. Though my pregnancy was planned, events in my life at the time caused me to be very upset toward the last few months of my pregnancy and I nearly lost the baby and I nearly did not survive it. As a result, baby had to be born 2 months early, and I was in intensive care unit. How can any woman be healthy in mind, body, and spirit knowing she is carrying to term a pregnancy that they did not want? That is just wrong.
 Rape and extreme circumstances aside. People always throw this bullshit our there in defense of abortion when most the abortions performed are not even related to rape or a medical issue.  When you are sexual assulted, you typically get a plan b pill along with your rape kit. We all have a responsibility to take care of ourselves.  Are you going to sit at home for several weeks after a sexual assulted to see if you got pregnant from it, then peruse a further trauma like abortion? Unless you are being held hostage you need to seek medical treatment asap, a rape kit.  Not just for yourself but all the future potential victims including the fetus, which is also a victim.

Many people who have abortions, statistically speaking, live below the poverty line.

Quote from: "RW"Really Romero?  Wouldn't it be extremely difficult to get numbers of abortions in countries where it is illegal?  If so, where do such statistics come from?  Back alleys?  Coat hook sales?  Stairwell accidents?

There are expert studies and surveys.


QuoteNearly half of all abortions worldwide are unsafe, and nearly all unsafe abortions (98%) occur in developing countries. In the developing world, 56% of all abortions are unsafe, compared with just 6% in the developed world.



Since 2003, the number of abortions fell by 600,000 in the developed world but increased by 2.8 million in the developing world. In 2008, six million abortions were performed in developed countries and 38 million in developing countries, a disparity that largely reflects population distribution.



Highly restrictive abortion laws are not associated with lower abortion rates. For example, the abortion rate is 29 per 1,000 women of childbearing age in Africa and 32 per 1,000 in Latin America—regions in which abortion is illegal under most circumstances in the majority of countries. The rate is 12 per 1,000 in Western Europe, where abortion is generally permitted on broad grounds.

I know where Fash stands. I'm just discussing some aspects.



If only a woman and her doctor have the right to choose what's best, how can the pro-life movement claim to know what's best? Who gets to decide who is allowed to have an abortion? Should a 10% chance of dying still be illegal to have an abortion? What if it's 50%?



Many in the pro-life movement agree that abortion is okay if the mother's life is in danger, yet they would have no way of knowing if that were the case.



Any woman walking into an abortion clinic could be doing so because her life is in danger. Pro-life protesters would call her a "murderer".



I'm just trying to show that judging a woman for her right to choose is a little more complicated than "it's murder".

I'm sorry for your experience Dove but you get more wrong in this debate than Romero does and that's saying something.
 I actually believe abortion isn't the best solution to a pregnancy caused by rape. You can get the plan b, or find a family to adopt.  I think I already said I know my stance on this isn't popular and already said I'm not moving. Romero will never be the one dealing with any of this personally.  Maybe when he sits in a room of sobbing women who have told themselves it "was the right choice at the time so I swallowed it" he can harass them with links?  And other lefties can back him? I'm not debating. I double dog dare him to spew this crap in a room of women. It'll be like an episode of Spartacus. Lol.

Of course abortion is not the best option in pregnancy caused by rape..



The unborn baby did nothing wrong.


Yes, Lets make the mother go full term and she can be reminded everyday that she was raped by some dick head not to mention when the child is of age and someone has to tell him his father was a rapist, how do you think he will take that news? im guessing Razor blades will play a factor in his taking his own life. :oeudC: Holy shit!! REALLY?

Rape is a horrific crime, but why should an innocent, unborn baby pay with it's life?



Punish the rapist, don't murder the baby..



There's no reason why that baby cannot be adopted by a loving family.

Quote from: "Romero"I know where Fash stands. I'm just discussing some aspects.



If only a woman and her doctor have the right to choose what's best, how can the pro-life movement claim to know what's best? Who gets to decide who is allowed to have an abortion? Should a 10% chance of dying still be illegal to have an abortion? What if it's 50%?



Many in the pro-life movement agree that abortion is okay if the mother's life is in danger, yet they would have no way of knowing if that were the case.



Any woman walking into an abortion clinic could be doing so because her life is in danger. Pro-life protesters would call her a "murderer".



I'm just trying to show that judging a woman for her right to choose is a little more complicated than "it's murder".

You're really listening to me are you?



The doctor would inform the expectant mother of any probable health risks..



My doctor knew and informed me of my physical well being during my pregnancies..



You're making something so simple seem so complicated..



It's really not..

I'm sorry for your experience Dove but you get more wrong in this debate than Romero does and that's saying something.
 I actually believe abortion isn't the best solution to a pregnancy caused by rape. You can get the plan b, or find a family to adopt.  I think I already said I know my stance on this isn't popular and already said I'm not moving. Romero will never be the one dealing with any of this personally.  Maybe when he sits in a room of sobbing women who have told themselves it "was the right choice at the time so I swallowed it" he can harass them with links?  And other lefties can back him? I'm not debating. I double dog dare him to spew this crap in a room of women. It'll be like an episode of Spartacus. Lol.

Of course abortion is not the best option in pregnancy caused by rape..



The unborn baby did nothing wrong.


Yes, Lets make the mother go full term and she can be reminded everyday that she was raped by some dick head not to mention when the child is of age and someone has to tell him his father was a rapist, how do you think he will take that news? im guessing Razor blades will play a factor in his taking his own life. :oeudC: Holy shit!! REALLY?

Rape is a horrific crime, but why should an innocent, unborn baby pay with it's life?



Punish the rapist, don't murder the baby..



There's no reason why that baby cannot be adopted by a loving family.


Why should an innocent girl have to be traumatized and reminded EVERYDAY that shes been raped.



I doubt if you were in that situation that you would have that same view.
 As if, you need a pregnancy to be a reminder you've been raped. Wow.  Yanno, women who get an abortion due to a rape are now dealing with TWO traumas. Two.

And let's look at this for a minute.  They can give you an abortion pill and d and c before 7 weeks, sure.  Now how many women even know they are pregnant that early? Let the stats speak. Abortions are typically done between 7 and 12 weeks. Very few abortions are done due to rape or medical issues and before 7 weeks. It's such a small amount that it's not even a valid point. Most abortion so performed are done due to a woman not wanting the baby and done around or after 12 weeks. Here in america, at least.

 Yeah, Google the stats.  See how many are done at 12 weeks.  Seriously?  You think most women actually think about their missed period?  Stress can cause a missed period. Most will be like "yeah, my periods late. I'll wait a week or so and take a test".  Then it's "oh no, I'm pregnant, I don't know what to do!" And them it's another week of choice making. Then if you are in very small percent who find out the next week after the missed period, you probably won't even get seen for another week, then after your assesment your procedure gets scheduled in another week or two. and they'll want you to wait until week 7.  I get what Google says.

How little you think of your fellow women!



I've always known women to care soon enough. It is kind of important. Personally, I can recall three instances when girlfriends told me and took a pregnancy test after being about a couple of weeks late. One of those got tested by a doctor at two and a half weeks. They eventually had their periods anyway.



Other women I've talked to seemed to feel that knowing if they were pregnant or not was kind of important. Go figure.



It's silly for you to presume most women are all "meh" when it comes to being late. Are you? I doubt any woman here is.

I wanted to stay out this topic. I don't think the opinions of a man should carry much weight unless we suddenly are able to get knocked. But, reading the dishonesty from Fashionista, Dove, Romero and Keeper was enough. Forgive me ladies and I mean the intelligent ones, RW, cc la femme, shen li and Dinky Diana, but I have to speak my mind.



Fashionista: you deserve a Juno award for the performance you've given. An abortion is not je jure or de facto premeditated murder. You seemed like a nice girl until I read this thread.



Dove: are you sure you are a woman? Did you skip the health portion of your physical education class? You seem like a nice girl too, but this subject brings out the stupid in you.



Romero: if fashionista wins the award, you will be a close runner up. I don't think you know much about women who get abortions. I had an ex wife end her pregnancy after she got knocked up by her her lover when she was married to me. My son's girlfriend got an abortion because he was in no position to support a kid at the time and she didn't want the responsibility of raising one. An ex friend with benefits of mine got an abortion because neither of us wanted a kid and she didn't want to quit drinking and smoking for nine months. My neice got an abortion in April because it interfered with her university studies.



My whole point is that abortion is usually not about women's health. It's about selfish people that don't want or can't handle nine months or eighteen years of responsibility.



Keeper: you must have skipped biology class. DNA is in a fetus, it's not a fetus.

http://healthland.time.com/2012/06/06/an-unborn-baby-gets-its-dna-sequenced-is-it-cause-for-celebration-or-alarm/



Now that I have waded into this subject into this topic, I should give my opinions. I am not opposed to abortion. It's an elective procedure, but if women can get fake boob and butt implants why not abortion? If men can get penile implants, then why not abortion? All can be for cosmetic or vanity reasons. I can't stand the dishonesty and stupidity that this subject brings out in people.

I wasn't arguing that women never get abortions for reasons that may be considered foolish or selfish, though I believe it happens less often than many people think.



My main point was that we couldn't possibly know if any average woman getting an abortion might be doing it for health reasons. We shouldn't assume that every woman does it because they're selfish.

Fash, I have a problem envisioning you keeping a pregnancy if you were raped and it was the cause of it. I don't think your husband is going to want you to keep it for nine months. It's easy to say all these things but if you were faced with the issue, you may very well give it another thought.

So then most abortions are done before 7 weeks. Okay. Sure. Because most women know within 2 weeks of conception, make a fast choice to abort and get in to set up the procedure the very next day. They get the abortion pill and d&c and move on, with therapy available when needed.  Gee I was so wrong on the reality of abortion.

This is a point i have expressed in the past and was roundly challenged on as untrue. I'm glad to see that someone else is willing to call most abortions for what they are......."contraception post conception".



I would never wish to take away a woman's right to choose, it is not for me to tell others what they can and cannot do with their bodies. But the fact that in so many cases, abortion is used and to some extent promoted as a convenience, is one of the big reasons why I personally find it so morally objectionable.

QuoteAn 11-year-old girl in Paraguay who became pregnant after being raped by her stepfather — and whose case sparked international outrage after Paraguayan officials prohibited her from getting an abortion — has given birth to a daughter.



International human rights groups say that, while the girl and her newborn are both healthy, the birth highlights the fact that Paraguay's current abortion ban is much too stringent.



Mainumby's child was delivered via Cesarean section because doctors determined that a vaginal birth would be too dangerous.



Not every girl is as lucky. According to the World Health Organization, girls in Latin America who give birth before they turn 16 years old are four times more likely to die during childbirth than young women in their twenties. The United Nations estimates that 700,000 adolescents in developing countries die each year from unsafe childbirth. In Paraguay specifically, 28 minors died last year from complications that resulted from giving birth.



Latin America has some of the strictest abortion laws in the world. There, desperate women who attempt to end a pregnancy often end up in prison on charges of murdering their unborn children.

My whole point is that abortion is usually not about women's health. It's about selfish people that don't want or can't handle nine months or eighteen years of responsibility.


This is a point i have expressed in the past and was roundly challenged on as untrue. I'm glad to see that someone else is willing to call most abortions for what they are......."contraception post conception".



I would never wish to take away a woman's right to choose, it is not for me to tell others what they can and cannot do with their bodies. But the fact that in so many cases, abortion is used and to some extent promoted as a convenience, is one of the big reasons why I personally find it so morally objectionable.

Renee, I am adding you to the list of intelligent ladies. My opinion mirrors your own. It's not up to me to dictate what elective surgery they may be allowed to get. But, we all know abortion is usually because people are selfish and do not want responsibility. Contraception post conception sums up exactly what abortion is.

QuoteInvestigation Into Planned Parenthood Leads To Indictment Of Anti-Abortion Activists



A Texas grand jury has indicted two anti-abortion activists in a case involving covert videos on fetal tissue procurement talks with Planned Parenthood and found there was no wrongdoing on the part of the health group, a district attorney said on Monday.



"After a lengthy and thorough investigation by the Harris County District Attorney's Office, the Texas Rangers, and the Houston Police Department, a Harris County grand jury took no action Monday against Planned Parenthood Gulf Coast," the Harris County District Attorney's office said in a statement.



The grand jury decision was a result of a probe launched last year under Texas Governor Greg Abbott who accused Planned Parenthood of the "gruesome harvesting of baby body parts."



No evidence was provided by Texas to back the claim. Planned Parenthood has denied the accusation and called the probe politically motivated.



David Daleiden and Sandra Merritt have both been indicted by the grand jury for tampering with a governmental record, said prosecutors for the county in which Houston is located.



The two were involved in covert videos last year in which a discussion was held with a Planned Parenthood official on the procurement of fetal tissue.

Not understanding. Accepted compensation for fetal tissue? Are you saying they accepted $$ for their aborted fetuses? As I recall abortions cannot take place after 90 days of inception? Would this be wrong related to cancer research? What else would this fetal tissue be used for?

Planned Parenthood is a racist redundant organization receiving $530 million in US federal funding. Planned Parenthood spends taxpayer money on politics and elections through its federal political action committee, the Planned Parenthood Action Fund; through its Super PAC. In the 2014 election cycle, Planned Parenthood spent US$6,587,100 on contributions to candidates and political parties and on independent expenditures.



Cut off their allowance. They already raise about $800 million through other sources anyway.

You're an American and you didn't know this shit.


QuoteThe consent form patients at Planned Parenthood sign if they choose to donate fetal tissue after an abortion explains that such tissue has been used in research on diabetes, Parkinson's disease, Alzheimer's disease, cancer and AIDS. Women are asked to initial several parts of the form, including a line that reads: "I agree to give my blood and/or the tissue from the abortion as a gift to be used for education, research or treatment."



The reality, however, is that Planned Parenthood – or any abortion provider – has only a limited ability to specify the purpose for which fetal tissue will ultimately be used. Even Planned Parenthood seems to tacitly acknowledge this in its form, another section of which requires women to initial a line that reads: "I understand I have no control over who will get the donated blood and/or tissue or what it will be used for."



 Planned Parenthood fetal tissue consent form

In fact, nothing prevents fetal tissue from being used for purposes that would not be considered medical, such as research to develop cosmetics. And even though such practices aren't illegal, it is unclear that women understand the possibilities when they sign the donation consent forms.



The topic of fetal tissue donation has come to light amid a series of videos released by the Center for Medical Progress, an anti-abortion group that accused Planned Parenthood of selling fetal tissue for profit and of altering the way it performs abortions in order to gather more intact specimens.



The women's health care provider has denied any wrongdoing and commissioned a study that showed the videos are heavily edited and manipulated. The issue has become a talking point for Republican presidential candidates and is likely to fuel arguments over federal funding for Planned Parenthood.



But less attention has been paid to the regulation of third-party companies that collect the tissue and blood from abortion providers and process and sell the materials to researchers.



"I've certainly seen things on the tapes that have given me pause, but is it enough to close Planned Parenthood? No," says Arthur Caplan, founding director of the division of medical ethics at New York University's Langone Medical Center's Department of Population Health. "Could Congress improve the ways we get fetal tissue in this country? Yes." He points to the fact that there is no information on whether fetal tissue can be imported from other countries, and to the lack of guidance as to the purposes for which tissue can be used.



Because the Food and Drug Administration does not require cosmetic companies to list ingredients, it is difficult to quantify whether, or how often, fetal tissue is used to develop them. In 2009, Neocutis Inc., a skincare company, openly admitted that it had used cells derived from an aborted fetus in Switzerland to make its products, which the company says go toward helping patients with severe wounds and burns, but also to fight skin aging. Company spokespeople said the tissue was collected ethically in Switzerland, following all of the country's organ donation laws. The abortion, they wrote, was deemed medically necessary by doctors because the fetus would not survive to term, and the parents opted to donate the tissue.

QuoteThe Zika Virus Could Force Women To Have Unsafe Abortions



As the Zika virus continues to cause severe birth deformities in babies whose mothers contract it throughout the Americas, El Salvador has advised women to avoid becoming pregnant for a full two years until the epidemic is eradicated. But women who are already pregnant with the disease are left with few options in a country where abortion is criminalized without exceptions.



The virus, which the Aedes aegypti mosquito transmits, is linked to the condition microcephaly, which causes babies to be born with abnormally small heads and severe developmental delays. Since Brazil confirmed the first case in May 2015, 21 other countries throughout South, Central and North America, including the United States, have since reported occurrences. Nearly 4,000 children have been born with microcephaly in the areas affected.



El Savador's government advised women on Monday to delay getting pregnant until 2018 -- an unprecedented recommendation -- while Colombia, Jamaica and Ecuador called for shorter delays.



The problem in El Salvador's case is that women who are already pregnant and contract the virus are still subject to the nation's complete ban on abortion, which has already put dozens of women behind bars for murder. Health workers worry the law could drive many desperate women infected with Zika to seek dangerous, back-alley procedures.



"Imagine you're pregnant already, and then you discover you have this virus, and then you discover that this virus causes this condition in the fetus," said Anu Kumar, executive vice president of the global abortion rights non-profit IPAS. "Then you're faced with the decision of, what do you want to do with this?"



Kumar, speaking at the International Conference on Family Planning in Bali, Indonesia, said the Zika situation highlights the public health problems that severely restrictive abortion laws cause. An estimated 47,000 women a year die from unsafe abortion complications.  



"That's exactly why these laws should be liberalized," she said, "because unsafe abortions lead to injury, lead to death, lead to women having unspeakable horror inflicted on them. And why, when we have the technology to do this safely?"

"That's exactly why these laws should be liberalized," she said, "because unsafe abortions lead to injury, lead to death, lead to women having unspeakable horror inflicted on them. And why, when we have the technology to do this safely?"

So, should abortion remain criminalized in the Americas? Should thousands of women be forced to carry deformed fetuses to term?

The zika virus outbreak is terrible, but unborn babies should not be killed because they have it?

QuoteAffected newborns generally have striking neurological defects and seizures. Severely impaired intellectual development is common, but disturbances in motor functions may not appear until later in life.



Infants with microcephaly are born with either a normal or reduced head size. Subsequently, the head fails to grow, while the face continues to develop at a normal rate, producing a child with a small head and a receding forehead, and a loose, often wrinkled scalp. As the child grows older, the smallness of the skull becomes more obvious, although the entire body also is often underweight and dwarfed. Development of motor functions and speech may be delayed. Hyperactivity and intellectual disability are common occurrences, although the degree of each varies. Convulsions may also occur. Motor ability varies, ranging from clumsiness in some to spastic quadriplegia in others.

If women don't have the right to choose, there could be untold thousands of children having to suffer for life. There are already 4,000 and it hasn't even been a year yet.

^Do you not fucking get it after 24 pages?? She doesn't support abortions even when there are birth defects.  Do we really need another 24 fucking pages of this shit.  :001_rolleyes:

There could be scientific improvements that could make their lives better..



But, that aside, I think it's scary that so many parents would consider ending the lives of their unborn babies because raising a special needs child is a burden on them.

There are only two people in this thread that are pro life. There are some of us who are anti-PP funding, but we are still pro choice. If the argument is about abortion itself, you are having it with two people who will NEVER change their convictions any more than you will.

It's a burden on the children who would have to endure an entire lifetime of suffering. There is no known cure.

I discussed this once with a co-worker who was going with his wife for an amino to test for Down's syndrome.  I asked if they would abort if positive and he said they would.  He felt it wasn't fair to the child or them but also to their existing children who would not receive the same care and attention because of the care requirements of a child with special needs.



I didn't hold the same view nor did I condemn him for his reasoning.

My baby girl was born with Down's syndrome..



I lost her before her third birthday..



If there was was an equivocal test for learning disabilities-antennal screening for autism, would we be comfortable offering it routinely?



Killing a baby for having Down's syndrome is sugar coated eugenics.

I'm so sorry for your loss Fash.  Hearing about the loss of a child breaks my heart.  ac_crying



Personally, I would feel blessed to have a child with Down's syndrome just as I would be blessed to have a normal healthy child.  I think I would feel differently to bear a child that has a condition that would cause that child suffering though.

A child who would have to endure?  There are probably about 20,000 or more that are enduring right now. Some just didn't make it. They are called refugees. Your heart felt views seem to be very selective.

Not really.  I feel for those children as well.  I'd happily let the kids in with their mothers.  They aren't going around raping people.  Do you care about those people?  Those women are someone's children as well.



I also think refugees would be better suited taking up residence in neighbouring Muslim countries where it culturally makes sense.  Is that so wrong?



Oh silly me!  I challenged your point and asked a question.  You don't answer questions or respond to challenges do ya pal?

They are economic migrants which is why countries like Finland have told the scammers to hit the road.

Fake refugees are fake refugees. I lived in the middle east for a lot of years. Everybody is expendable including children and especially women. They get them Europe, it's easier to bring the able bodied men in. If some of their kids drown along the way, it was worth it if it gets cold hearted Europeans to allow bullshit refugees in right.
