All the people who think abortion should be legal, should of been aborted. There can be exceptions, only when the life of the mother is in danger, and can cause death, should only then abortion be an option.
No ones ever said that...lol. I'm not going to wish death on people like that, I get where you're going because I'm pro-life as well, but that's way too far.

yah youre all set to make up any story about what a collection of cells with no neural activity wants, but when it comes to actually listening to the voices of ppl that are already alive, especially women, conservatives just can't make the effort fsr. what if those fetus voices we're like 'actually id prefer if you waited to incubate and birth me until my mom is ready in her life'. But that is apparently a really unlikely request to this way of thinking, and it's more likely, according to these ppl, that the fetus wants to be born into abject poverty with no prospects for social advancement or forced by laws advocated by ppl in this thread to have an abusive father just cause 'lol women are so dumb to have sex if they don't want the baby'.

these same ppl think that the dude should have a legal right to prevent a woman he knocks up from getting an abortion. and it gets even better when you hear these conservatives bemoan the fact that they cant force a woman theyve knocked up to carry their child to term or how women just shouldnt have sex if they dont want babies. it's all about using the state to control women's bodies.

If you don't want a child, don't have freaking sex, or at the very least use protection and acknowledge the possible consequences. That baby did not force anything, that's your own damn fault given it's consensual. It's not rocket science. I know plenty of families that would adopt and give the baby a loving home as well, they don't just all get dumped into orphanages. You can also have an open adoption where there are terms to still see the kid.

You do consent to sex however, and before you mention marginal-ass cases, you can look straight above this reply, I am not repeating myself again.

not to mention that u can still get pregnant if you use protection or are on the pill.

tl;dr you only care if a fetus is carried to term and birthed but not about the circumstances that the child is birthed into. you try to give a voice to a collection of unborn cells and then do everything to ignore that voice once it's a real life human. shameful shit tbh

I'm just gonna leave you with this since you insist on rehashing this. When you have sex, no matter what or how slim you run the risk of having a baby. The only foolproof way to completely 100% not risk pregnancy is not having sex. It's still not rocket science. You shouldn't kill a baby for something that it's not responsible for, in my opinion. It's oftentimes a clump of cells with a heartbeat, and a completely different set of DNA. You cannot mischaracterize that its still a human fetus. Many of the policies your pushing for are for killing it even when with our technological advancements, it's viable outside of the womb. It's your fault, grow a pair and be a responsible adult. If you don't want to be a parent, there are plenty of willing and wanting, loving parents that can adopt (and that also addresses birthing the baby in a bad living situation).

cause ur still forced to put ur life on hold for nine months while u birth it and the effects on your body and economic prospects last a life time (https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5575578/)

as i said before this anti-abortion advocacy is all about controlling women's bodies.
A baby with a completely different set of cells is not a womans body, that's a dumb as all shit argument, and completely anti-science lol.

No one wants to control anyones bodies, we don't want you to kill babies. Plain and simple.
 
The voiceless deserve a voice.
POGGERs give me global voice on sim or eat your words
Also on another note, let me give you some of my background. My parents came to this country legally & worked hard their entire lives for the chance at a better life for their kids. They've worked hard daily sometimes working two jobs. My dad working during the day, and my mom at night so my brother & I wouldn't need a baby sitter. They don't go out to eat, my mom cooks. How can two people who barley even know English, no college degrees go on to become successful, not needing any hand outs work hard to become almost millionaires. So I have no pity to lazy folks who only cry and whine and want handouts from the government. Get off your ass and get to work if you are sick and tired of being sick and tired.

Also, No Democratic Nominee is going to beat Trump. Get over yourselves, it's going to be a long 4 more years. He was supposed to be impeached 4 years ago & aren't you all supposed to be living in Canada by now?

Democrats just want to tax you more, how are you ever going to make money if you're just getting taxed more, shit makes no sense.
On some level i deeply admire your mindset, because objectively, youre 100% right. But in reality most impoverished people aren't as strong willed and as hard working as your parents.


And neither are most middle classed people, rich people, libtards, cuckservatives, etc. And thats okay.
We shouldn't have legislation based on idealism. We need legislation based on realism. And what's realistic is that we should have economic structuring that rewards fruitful efforts of the average American person, not only to the nigh superhuman effort of the miracle success story.

It isn't too much to ask for someone poor to work hard and become successful. It IS too much to declare laziness as the primary reason why millions of Americans are struggling when there are much more apparent variables out of their control (slavery, instutional classism, buttsexism, sexism, racism, and gamerism). Its for this exact reason why I despise both political parties and the only politician I believe to be truly emblematic of the American spirit is Andrew Yang. Seriously guys hes a cool guy.

Anti-abortion advocates just use this bullshit excuse that they're "protecting life" as a cover to push for what they really want to do: control women's bodies. Any interest in the life of the unborn child is warranted only when it is possible for that unborn child to survive outside of the womb. Period. And since you brought up adoption, that still doesn't change the fact that under your proposal, the mother would still be forced to give birth. Also, do you really want to put more strain on the foster care system than we already have?

Banned deucer.
Smh this thread is about the DEMOCRATIC PRIMARY. Let's get things back on topic please.

https://www.govtrack.us/congress/bills/108/hr1104

Bernie Sanders was one of only 14 congress members to vote against AMBER Alerts and criminalizing digital child porn.

He said it's because mandatory sentencing for child predators is unconstitutional, but that makes no sense when just 3 years later, he campaigned on being "Tough on Crime", citing his own Crime Bill vote as evidence.

i wonder when mikedawg will denounce war criminal hillary clinton

oh btw, curiously enough, the very same source u took a blurry screenshot of to prove the great hypocrisy of bernie sanders also mentions explicitly that he voted for such things as mandatory life sentences for repeat child sex offenders, among other things. take a look: https://web.archive.org/web/20061018180921/http:/www.bernie.org/truth/crime.html. i sure do wonder why you didn't bother linking the source yourself! almost like it conflicts with the first part of your post :x
