Or we could just start the discussion with human life does begin at conception and that it is wrong to end a human life and see where that leads us, right?Bull
You have people out there like Dr. Gosnell running around. In the 1970's he was investigated and shown to have violated many health regulations. But instead of doing anything about it, they simply chose not to investigate him anymore because abortion is such a hot political football that any restrictions on it will be faced with fierce opposition. He then continued to abuse both women and fully term infants and killing many along the way before being brought to justice some 30 to 40 years later.
Dear Votto So quit the division. When we agree to help each other, these abuses will get caught faster.
What do you think of this proposal:
Since banning abortion at the point after pregnancy targets the women more than the men,
what about banning sex that leads to unwanted pregnancy or unwanted children or abortion?
What if statutory rape were expanded to include complaints of relationship abuse and fraud.
So if a complaint is reported of relationship abuse or conflict over a pregnancy that isn't wanted,
both the men and women are subject to counseling to address and resolve that complaint.
And if it is found that one person coerced the other fraudulently, then that is addressed
as a violation of "health and safety codes" because such abuse is harmful to mental and emotional
health by causing distress to both people in the relationship. So both partners would
be required to get relationship counseling until the issue is resolved as reported by a professional counselor
they both agree on.
Since this is personal, it is the choice of the community to write up their own policy,
as how some universities have consent forms required before students engage in sexual relations.
Why can't communities agree on policies on abuse, and work on prevention and see if that reduces
the rates of incest rape sexual abuse relationship abuse unwanted pregnancies teen pregnancies and abortion?
Hey I'm pro life and pro choice, called the private part of me verses the public part, because I do realize freedom is a good thing, you seem the type that would like to dictate your views upon others.
Dear Penelope and ding
And what do you call it when Democrats push right to health care mandates on people
who believe in free market choices.
If prochoice refuse regulations on the right to choose abortion
why can't free market believers refuse regulations on the right to choose how to pay and provide for health care.
Is the harm or fear of having free choice to pay for insurance or health care other ways
SO BAD
that is deserves a penalty more than the harm or fear of giving people free choice of abortion?
Is that even fair?
Do you get the point, that prochoice advocates have forced people to pay for insurance or register for federal programs who don't believe in that.
Where's the free choice there? why is that so harmful it has to be regulated and forced
but not the choice of abortion that has to remain up to the individual and not penalized by govt
as not buying insurance is?
I am pro the ACA, because it costs us more when people are uninsured, this way everyone pays something and with the increase of Independent Contractors , work at home, etc, and more and more jobs hiring part time employers which then they are disqualified for employer shared HI, the more we need the ACA, and also for preexisting conditions. Its not perfect but to just drop it like Trump suggests would be a disaster. If insurance companies don't like it too bad, they are the gatekeepers and paper pushers is all. Middle men make the money and we do not need insurance companies.
Some religions do not believe in blood transfusions, should we not cover them. I do not think abortions should be covered except for medical reasons (the mothers life) and its not covered is it?
The big think is birth control coverage, and well I think it needs to be covered, but even more, I would suggest they also use a condom. Abstaining is recommended but that is not going to happen. With so many VD's , HIV and cervical CA, the pill is just not enough anymore, anyone sexually active should be able to get cheap well made condoms.
Dear Penelope
1. If you don't want to pay the costs of free market choices, let the other people who do pay for that.
Just set up ACA for people to pay who AGREE to those terms.
Prolife people don't want to pay for abortions and all the complications.
So let them pay for the alternatives.
If you don't want to pay the costs, why dictate how those costs are changed?
Why not refuse and let others pay with charity who agree they'd rather have that than mandates.
Let the free market believers get tax breaks for building charity hospitals
so everyone can afford help.
2. If you don't want the costs, what about the costs of prisons?
When people commit crimes it costs 50K in Texas to incarcerate each person for 1 year.
Are you going after that money? So the people actually racking up costs to taxpayers
pay it back and use that money for health care?
Why go after law abiding working taxpayers and take their freedom away,
take their income from their labor when they committed no crime.
But when it comes to people committing crimes and costing money to taxpayers,
you don't go after them and make them pay
Is that fair?
