You've tried to argue, repeatedly, that a human being is not a person, unless he is legally-recognized as such. You make this argument in defense of the murder of thousands of innocent human beings every day, who you refuse to acknowledge as human beings.
Um, yeah, guy, your religious beliefs don't trump science. A fetus can't live outside the woman it is in. Therefore, not human.
(Wait, I said "Science", waiting for the whine about Bruce Jenner!)
Even when abortion was against the law, people were not charged with murder for performing them.
My position is based on practicality- If a woman doesn't want to be pregnant, she will find a way to not be pregnant. The only question is, does she get a safe procedure done by a professional, or a back-ally procedure where she ends up getting maimed.
Less abortions is a laudable goal, but if you aren't willing to support policies to get there, you are just blowing smoke. The policies that get you there are paid family leave, universal health care, comprehensive sex education, availability of contraception- all things YOUR side opposes.
It's interesting to juxtapose that logic with your logic here, of calling people criminals who have not only not been legally convicted of any crimes, but have been vindicated by due process of law, as being innocent of those alleged crimes. And further interesting to juxtapose that with your relentless defense of actual criminals, taking their side, always, against human beings.
Maybe I don't need a court to tell me when something is wrong.
I saw the tapes of Rittenhouse gunning people down. I don't need a court to tell me that's what he did.
On the other hand, I just can't get worked up that some poor black kid stole a bag of chips.
About the only consistency that can be found in any or all of your positions, is that you always take the side of criminals against the side of human beings, you always take the side of evil against that of good, and you always take the side of madness against the side of reason. You do not appear to have any concern, or even awareness, of how you twist logic one way to do so in one case, and then twist it in a completely different way, irreconcilable with how you previously twisted it, to take such a side in another case.
Again-
Religious fanaticism isn't "reason", guy.
Good and Evil are subjective. To my mind. Racism is evil. Wealth inequality is evil. The fact that the richest country in the world allows children to go to bed hungry at night is evil. These are things that just don't bother you, because you define "Good" as groveling in front on an imaginary sky man.
