The Atlantic has fired Kevin Williamson for advocating that women who have abortions be hanged

[basquebromance]

all views on the left and right should be respected, within reason.

Does that mean if a woman is raped and becomes pregnant and has an abortion, she should be hanged?

I dont think a "hanging" is within reason.
Some people dont consider a fetus "life"
Its completely subjective.

This says more about the snowflake writers and staff at the Atlantic than anything else. The microagression culture from academia is coming home to roost in American journalism. Pathetic.

For liberalism's sake, the New York Times should hire Kevin Williamson

It isn't reasonable to call for a woman's hanging for having an abortion.

'Kevin Williamson's firing is another reminder that much of American conservatism finds itself ghettoized not by choice, but by the left's active demands that the right be silenced. Socialists, national or otherwise, don't like to compete for ideas when they can shut up others.'

 

[TNHarley]

He called for people to be murdered. I dont understand the outrage.

"I love how the Kevin Williamson affair has gotten every supposedly "reasonable" conservative commentator to say that killing women for personal medical decisions is a fair position." - Rachel Maddow
