Would you support anti abortion legislation as long as it included exceptions?

[Luddly Neddite]

Return the matter to the individual states. Let them decide what is best for them.

No. This is a decision that can only be made by the woman involved. It is no one elses business.

Period.

Period.

Which would still be the case if it were a state's issue.

No abortion law stops abortions. How many times do I have to state what will happen if Roe was overturned today?
1. It will go back to the states as states have their own criminal codes.
2. Some states will ban it outright, no exceptions.
3. Some states will ban it with exceptions
4. Some states will allow it with strict guidelines.
5. Some states will allow it with few guidelines.
6. Some states will allow it no matter what up until some date of pregnancy.

So what do we ALWAYS end up with if Roe was overturned?
If a woman with $$$ is pregnant and lives in a state that bans abortion outrightshe simply gets in a car or a plane and goes to a state that allows it and has her abortion.
And poor women that live in that state are forced to have their baby by big government bureaucrats. And this woman most likely will not want the baby and will not have a clue how to raise it.
I oppose abortion but know the Constitution and support it.

 

[Two Thumbs]

Kinda curious where you guys stand.

I support states rights.

If we can have a vast array of arms laws, regulations and restrictions.

we can have abortion laws, regulations and restrictions.

I think more often than not those poor women who don't want to go through pregnancy would just end up either performing the abortion themselves or through a medical loophole at a clinic or on the newly created black market for abortions.

I can't even imagine a way to convict someone for having an abortion either, would seem so easy for a lawyer to either say medically she needed one or that the abortion was an accident.

 

[Mr. Shaman]

I didn't respond to the poll because you didn't include enough options. I believe that abortion should be legal in the first six months of pregnancy without restriction. I believe it should be illegal except to protect the mother's health in the final trimester.

"The first six months" ? ? ? ?
At any time, it's the murder of a human being.

.....So, buy yourself a room-full o' cribs, and.....

.....start ADOPTING!!!!!

It is God's decision whether a child should be born.

 

[Wry Catcher]

Kinda curious where you guys stand.

Abortions, troll, are legal with some exceptions. It is settled law, per Chief Justice Roberts (he wouldn't lie, would he?).

 

[Wry Catcher]

It is God's decision whether a child should be born.

So God decides who lives and who dies?

 

[High_Gravity]

You can say that about anything, if a woman gets an abortion it is God's will otherwise it wouldn't happen right?

And one must remember that when abortion was banned prosecutions of the women was very rare and almost as rare for any doctor.
"She needed it because of medical emergency"
Add in current HIPPA laws and that will be used all of the time because the medical records are private.

It is God's decision whether a child should be born.

So God decides who lives and who dies?

In the womb, if the child does not live, it is a natural death. It is not cut up and dispersed by man for the convenience or nod of a woman.

Should a "God's Will" law be put on the books?

At any time, it's the murder of a human being. At 6 months THIS is what a fetus looks like...

Fetal development - 6 months

Take a look - it's close to fully developed!

I'm not a female but I just don't understand why they don't opt for adoption instead of death. I just don't get it.

I'm very thankful I was born, male......'cause there's NO WAY, IN HELL I'd have the patience for 9 MONTHS of pregnancy!!!

BOTH of these quandaries are reason, ENOUGH, for men to WITHHOLD any-and-all consideration/input on the subject.....even if they consider themselves Clerics (of some kind).

I view this subject the same way I do Catholic-priests instructing couples on issues-of-marriage.

Another analogy (in my mind) would be the issue of states' helmet-laws:

Let those that (actually) RIDE, DECIDE!!!​

At one time slavery was settled law.

Correct, so i don't see any way in which a law would stop abortions.

I think the end result would just be MAYBE one conviction out of every 5 or 10 years. The conviction of course would happen just to punish a mother who already had one, not actually stop the abortion from happening. Even that's a maybe.

Don't know what to tell you, dude. I'm a woman, and I don't really get it.

In-other-words, you've never (personally) been in a situation where abortion was a consideration.

In my mind, that'd make your opinion moot.​

All of the prosecutions would be the poor women. Abortion has always been hush hushed if it was a woman of the upper class of the neighborhood.
That is the norm of the hard core religous right.
Do as I say, not as I do.

A law has nothing to do with God's will. It should be man's law. Just call murder what it is.

Yeah..this was the argument for slavery too..ace.
