But just for shits and grins, what do you think America would look like without those 70M abortions?

More educated, less crime, less welfare recipients, better schools, lower prison population…?

Abortion will cost the republicans the election.  People want to make their own decisions and not being told how they live.   abortion is between yourself and God.

Women want choice.  It cost them the last election and it will cost them this one too

If you want to keep that policy and a majority in government you need to convince about 70 percent of America that a first trimester fetus is a person.  Which isn't going to happen anytime soon since most people base that opinion on the fact that there is no brain activity to make conscious thought possible before 15 weeks. That is an undeniable fact and none of the pro lifers have any convincing arguments against that.  Usually just sidestep or dodge the subject completely and scream baby killer like a toddler not getting their way.

Stop acting like Republicans have never controlled congress and the presidency before. They've controlled them 3 times in the last 20 years, yet they've done nothing about abortion or anything, really.

108th (2003–2005)
109th (2005–2007)
115th (2017–2019)

We're so worried about "the next election!" that we lost the culture. And for what? So the same pathetic Republicans can get elected again? One of my congressmen, Senator Grassley, has been in office longer than I've been alive, and I'm almost 40! Yet voters keep sending him back even though he's 90 and hasn't done anything of value.

How many more elections do you think it'll take before Republicans do anything?

Yep, and that's what the Republicans have been doing for decades. We've been doing the compromise strategy for years and what do we have to show for it?  Gutless aging politicians who should have retired 20 years ago and nothing else. Absolutely nothing else. The Left is running rampant because of this compromise strategy these guys in this thread are pushing.

Talk about blind. The Left never compromises, and that's why they win. They don't care if they lose an election, because they're winning the culture. And because they're winning the culture, they get elections thrown in as well.

But we have to compromise, again, so we can "win the next election!!!!1!". We're so addicted to 'winning' on the right, we don't care who or what we win with. It could be a lifelong New York liberal, just as long as he has an R after his name, and our side would root for him.

I will say its pretty clear that the argument that an undeveloped fetus has the same sanctity as a human life does not work. That argument does not hold its weight with most people. Yet over and over again people in this thread make that argument and it bounces off. To me and most people, the bodily autonomy and family planning aspect is much more important. A pregnancy that occurs before the women is ready is not a pregnancy that's wanted.

Politicians need to remove themselves from the abortion issue. While I am per se opposed to abortions, I also realize that circumstances to the individual is also their right. And I also realize that common sense on both parties, man and woman, could reduce the amount of abortions and unwanted pregnancies.

Hm.   I just read the first ten amendments and the DOI, and I see no mention of unborn children.  I do, however, remember those same founders thought abortion was a personal decision and even published instructions to DIY the task.

Psychology reflection much?

Abortion abolitionists/pro-lifers/Christians are the most giving people in America. I personally know multiple families in my church and family who have fostered and/or adopted several kids.

In the case of health of the mother I am fine with abortion. Seems like self-defense. In any other case I am not fine with it that is the only exception in my opinion.

I believe it to be wrong. And while I certainly want the government out of our life and I stand with the position of less regulation almost in every reasonable case, I believe this is more similar to banning murder rape or arson. It is a crime against another.

I don’t recall anything in those documents about unborn fetuses. And moreover laws related to abortion didn’t even exist until the 1800’s. Abortion was widely known and practiced during the founding of this country yet it was never contemplated in the Declaration of Independence nor the Bill of Rights.


Abortions were taking place when Jesus walked the earth. It seems he might have mentioned something about it if it was so evil.

While it may have been taking place then I don't think it was anywhere near as common and normalized as today.

There's a lot Jesus didn't touch on or talk about. I wouldn't read into that justification or approval.

That's the thing.

You can't satisfactorily legislate a topic that includes the possibility for countless unknown or unforeseen circumstances.

"Medical necessity". Sounds great in theory. In reality, what does that mean? Who decides it? What if different doctors give different opinions?

I don't like abortion. I despise it actually, especially as a form of birth control. But what I despise even more is government regulation on things I believe they have no business regulating, and as such I will almost always err on the side of individual choice.

And up in Canada... they are already trying to euthanize poor people.
There have been many cases of people being pressured into euthanasia.

Thats what happens when you start down the road of allowing humans to determine what life is worth recognizing as human life.

FFS, they offered a handicapped man EUTHANASIA as an alternative to A FUCKING WHEELCHAIR RAMP HE REQUESTED. But yeah, go ahead. Tell us how we need to give the government more discretion on defining "human life". Lets keep devaluing the value of human life.

Eventually, it wont even be a choice. The government will just force euthanasia on people... and even claim they're being "compassionate".

only 2% of the population came out to vote on the election because it was not advertised exepct on the local news.  You know not alot of people watch commercials any longer.

Facebook and google ads would work better

I thought it was a human Texas.

Federal IRS taxes - same thing.  It's not a human on your taxes, until its born.  

Somewhat hinky examples, but the point remains - a fetus is not defined and treated as a human. Until that is unerversally accepted that it is - this is a losing fight.  So far, that isn't working - and I doubt it ever will.

Yeah, and while you might not be able to claim an unborn child on your taxes... you can definitely qualify for certain benefits on the basis of being pregnant.

But just for shits and grins, what do you think America would look like without those 70M abortions?

More educated, less crime, less welfare recipients, better schools, lower prison population…?

You know that’s not really the point he was making.  

The point was the generational conception-to-grave social and economic cost of those 70 million unwanted children.

That’s why most Republicans amuse the shit out of me.

They demand an end to abortion, while simultaneously demanding an end to the safety net that would assume the cost of those unwanted babies.
