Do You Think Abortion = Murder

[LubeMaster77]

Yup, I'm a troll!

Sorry if you daughter gets raped. The crap she has to go through is inconceivable but thats doesn't mean you kill an innocent life.

Sorry if there is a chance the kid will be born not so perfect.

Don't doctors take an oath about doing no harm?

[JE928sx4]

So make a Poll you Troll.

Is killing Afghans in their own country murder?

[RWebb]

Is aborting Afghans in their own country murder?

and don't we need to know how far along the fetus is anyway??

[LubeMaster77]

a) A violent political action done by the military to other combatants approved by congress is not murder.

b) as soon as a cell divides it is life and soon to be a recognized human.

and to answer the resident 'it', start your on thread with a poll if it makes life easier or more interesting.

"as soon as a cell divides it is life and soon to be a recognized human"

that is what the Pope claims

what I want to know is how many 12 minute old blastulas have been molested by priests?

Should a woman who got knocked up Saturday night be able to drive in the carpool lane Sunday morning?

Because the law says its ok, or because the end justifies the means?

What if an innocent Afghan child is killed? Is that murder? Or does congress make that ok as well?

Lubey - if the fetus is spontaneously aborted - or miscarried because of something the mother has willingly done (lets say she voluntarily works at a job that puts her in contact with chemicals that are hazardous to fetuses), do you bring charges of murder against her?

Say she has eaten too many Big Macs while she was pregnant - and the fetus is miscarried... manslaughter?

So, every form of birth control that expels a few celled zygote is murder?

Now that's some funny schnit.

[Aurel]

What if a pregnant afghan woman who happens to be at the wrong place and the wrong time get blown up by a drone? Did congress authorize this form of abortion?

Wow. Letting government sanctify killing for political purposes hasn't worked out so well...

If a woman squeezes this little guy out and while he's gasping for breath, a doctor stabs it in the head with a pair of scissors is that murder?
All you "abortion for any reason" guys like to splash around in the hypothetical but this is a real person.



So I guess my answer to the original question is, sometimes.

The pro-choice crowd universally agree that the actions you describe after the third trimester is illegal unless the life of the mother is at risk.

He's 22 weeks and planned parenthood performs abortions at 22 weeks and later. So if you're opposed to abortions at 22 week what about 21 weeks? What happens in those 7 days?

BTW: Your guy, Obama is on record opposing providing assistance to born alive babies that survive aborts. At that point what do trimesters have to do with the equation? "universally agree" I think not.

[foxpaws]

What you are describing is murder and not abortion turbo pro - even partial birth abortions are illegal, let alone killing a live birth child (like in your description).

New polls seem to show some common ground in a movement towards making abortion somewhat less available.

The Gallup poll compared the views of pro-choice and pro-life Americans to see if there is any common ground in the contentious debate and found agreement in nine specific areas. Six of those are laws promoted by pro-lifers.

For instance, 52 percent of pro-choicers and 90 percent of pro-lifers favor making abortion illegal in the second trimester. Eight states have passed laws in the past 18 months prohibiting abortion beginning at 20 weeks.

In addition, pro-choicers and pro-lifers favor laws:

-- requiring a 24-hour waiting period for women seeking an abortion (60 percent of pro-choicers and 79 percent of pro-lifers favor it).

-- requiring parental consent for minors (60 percent pro-choicers; 79 percent pro-lifers).

-- banning partial-birth abortions (63 percent pro-choicers, 68 percent pro-lifers).

-- making abortion illegal in the third trimester (79 percent pro-choicers, 94 percent pro-lifers).

-- requiring informed consent for abortion patients (86 percent pro-choicers, 87 percent pro-lifers).

Planned Parenthood, NARAL Pro-Choice America and all the major abortion groups oppose each of those restrictions.

I don't have a problem with any of that except no provision is made for abortion when the mother's life is in danger.

However, my ultimate opinion is that anyone without the equipment to actually be pregnant shouldn't have a say in the matter since they will never experience the consequences of the choice.

What's up with the 6% of Pro-Lifers that support third trimester abortions... Should they really be allowed to be a part of the pro-life club?
