Such a moral contradiction demands clarity...

Your repetitive straw-man fallacy is genuinely self-explanatory and requires nothing more than pointing and laughing at your repetitive batshit bullshit.

Your "forcing women to give birth" analogy is very flawed..

No, what JL wrote isn't an "analogy" at all; that happens to be exactly what they are legislating. Why do I get the feeling you are going to follow what you are calling an "analogy" with an actual straw-man fallacy analogy?

It's akin to a woman taking a baby in a baby carrier on a long walk and then, because she is tired halfway thru the walk, the analogy makes it permissible for the woman to pitch the baby over the cliff because she is not allowed to be "forced" to fulfil her responsibility of carrying the baby all the way home.

There's your analogy... straw-man fallacy, also.

Swing and a miss, too.

When you have a child, you agree to accept responsibility for the safety and welfare of that child.. YOU want to call that being "forced" to care for the child, fine.. You can call it that..

He's talking about forcing women to give birth, while you're talking utter nonsense about some kind of "agreement." You're not even in the same ballpark as him and therefore not relevant to his discussion. He is correct about this 100%.

Using your "FORCED" analogy,

It isn't an "analogy" when you're forced by the government to give birth against your own will; it's forced birth. Forcing a woman to give birth is forced birth; it is that damn simple.

JL,

Your "forcing women to give birth" analogy is very flawed..

It's akin to a woman taking a baby in a baby carrier on a long walk and then, because she is tired halfway thru the walk, the analogy makes it permissible for the woman to pitch the baby over the cliff because she is not allowed to be "forced" to fulfil her responsibility of carrying the baby all the way home.

I'm of the opinion that most people would prefer not to have abortions in most circumstances.

If that opinion were factually accurate, then SAFE, LEGAL and RARE would still be how baby killings are viewed today..

But you and I both know that is NOT how Democrats see baby killing any more..

NOW Democrats want to #CELEBRATE their baby killings.. NOW Democrats want to #SHOUT OUT their baby killings..

But governments shouldn't be making the decision to force birth on every pregnant person no matter what the circumstances no matter how many or few people decide such a thing is worth celebrating.

And, once again, that's like saying governments shouldn't be making the decisions to FORCE parents to properly care for their children until they are 18...

When you have a child, you agree to accept responsibility for the safety and welfare of that child.. YOU want to call that being "forced" to care for the child, fine.. You can call it that..

I simply call it being responsible for the choices you make..

Using your "FORCED" analogy, there is no difference between killing a baby a month BEFORE birth and killing a baby a month AFTER birth..

I mean, YOU are saying that government shouldn't FORCE the woman to accept the responsibility of of their decision. Right??

Trump, whom the Justice Department suspects violated the Espionage Act, has vigorously fought the FBI's actions as well as the warrant that it lawfully obtained, arguing that the documents were his.

If you had actually read the "shout outs" you find them to be a good representative cross section of how women feel about getting an abortion. Happy, sad, serious, regretful, guilt, giant weight lifted. It's all there. I found the place quite melancholy... What BS.
