      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      No, he's a full grown man. This analogy isn't specifically meant to address the abortion question alone, it's meant to give some thought to some of the deeper moral questions that we've waded into, not just with the abortion debate, but with the debate over whether or not pulling life support...

      Today's You Can't Make This Sh*t Up News

      Did it stop happening, or did it just stop being the focus of the news? Genuine question; I actually have no idea, TBH.

      Spring 2023 OPEN INGO SHOOT June 3rd @ProTEQ in Brazil!

      Is there any info on a spring shoot yet? Or did I already miss it?

      Today's You Can't Make This Sh*t Up News

      To be fair, we're talking about Texas now. Didn't they actually do a pretty solid job of trying to put their resources towards protecting the border, but they got shut down by the feds?

      All the hate... (Anti-Israel College Campus Activity)

      I think a lot of people get caught up in a false duality. They see nutcases going absolutely bananas, protesting against Israel, saying that Palestine is being oppressed, Hamas is justified in their attacks, and a whole lot of other ludicrous claims. So to disassociate themselves from such...

      Oh, crap! That one slipped right by me. I'll turn in my grammar nazi card now.

      Grammar Nazis Untie

      I'm a bit of a grammar nazi myself, I have to admit, but for some funny reason #2 (Seen/saw, e.g., I seen a deer up yonder the other day) doesn't really bother me so much. Maybe its because I've been around lots of folks who speak that way, and they all know it ain't grammatically correct, they...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      Got it. :thumbsup: I suppose even I can discern a degree of moral difference between a D&C abortion versus a misoprostol-only induced abortion. To me, it's about the same difference as dismembering a newborn, vs. leaving the newborn to die in the woods. Both immoral, but I'll admit a degree...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      Just because I find the whole debate over the exact line of where failure to provide sustenance to another's life switches over to murder, and because I haven't made enough posts in a row already, I have a hypothetical scenario I'd like to ask about, on the off chance that any of my...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      Let me try to make this clear: I am not advocating that we vote only for politicians who support 100%, total abortion bans this fall. I am not advocating that we ignore the political landscape. I am merely trying to do exactly what you say: change hearts and minds. If you recall, there was...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      I mean, from a purely political perspective, he's not wrong. Even I can see that. :)

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      Again, I don't deny this: from a political standpoint, yes, my position is foolish and non-viable. Let me clarify. I don't want either a C-section or an adoption to be imposed on her by the state. I merely offered those two things as viable alternatives to killing the baby outright. If she...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      Well you've got a point there. Euthanasia through pain killers is a real thing, and yes, I am aware of it.

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      So we're getting stuck on terminology again. For me, when I talk about rights, it is my understanding that properly speaking, all true, innate human rights are negative. In other words, if it's something that others have to provide for you, like healthcare or voting, those aren't really human...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      Let me just make sure I'm understanding correctly: Have you changed your position? If your position is just that a mother can remove consent for the child to be in her body, and, without directly killing the child, seek to deliberately start the process of expelling the child from her body...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      Well, if that's really your position, then I retract my above statement about you being illogical. I just don't think you realize where this line of thinking ends up. Or perhaps you have, and you're just fine with seeing society go places that I am horrified of. I'm not sure which. Once...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      Is it really that close? Would you ever be comfortable with someone who is on life support being given a lethal injection instead of merely having life support removed? If no, then I think you understand the vast difference between discontinuing care vs. outright murder. You can try to brush...

      The Effect of "Abortion Rights" on the Political Landscape

      I will also add this. If someone knows with near-certainty that someone on life support will recover within 9 months and return to perfect health, but chooses to take them off life support anyways, then you may have a point. If not outright murder, that scenario would certainly be very close...
