Abortion "rights" unpopular

No one is denying her the rights to her body, except maybe as it pertains to drug use or suicide, the fetus isn't her body. So as long as she leaves the fetus alone we have no issue.

Until it's a life-form that is viable without it's host, it's a symbiote. The host has the right to decide for herself what is and is not using her body.

So in fact you ARE denying her rights to her own body.

So, a 14 y/o is raped by her uncle let's say, shouldn't her life be protected and given the right to have a chance at life, by having an abortion? Where is YOUR compassion?

You speak of it more as a parasite than a symbiote. That "symbiote" is a child, a human life, whether it is able to live on it's own or not. A infant even born already cannot live without a parent's care for it's every single need and as such would be classified as a symbiote by your standards. If you went by how independant it is, then it would be legal to kill even a child already born, even one what, 5? 6 years old? Even teenagers are largely dependant on the support of their parents, though they can take care of their own basic needs. This would also bring into question the elderlies' rights to life, many in care of nurses or family, even plenty of them unable to take care of their own basic needs such as feeding themselves, bathing, requiring assistance to make it to the bathroom.

Now, WHERE ARE THESE POLITICIANS WHO ARE USING ABORTION RIGHTS AS THEIR PLATFORM?????????????????????????????????????????????????????

No, her body isn't taken from her. She can do as she pleases as long as no one is harmed. She can't use her body to drive drunk, someone might die.

What thing is she being denied? Her body is there. Her freedom to go where she will is in tact. Are you saying her regular routine is to get her uterus scraped, but that is being denied?

None right now, that's the point, it's not popular any more. That shows the fact liberals do use it, but only if it helps them win.

A child is over one year of age.

When ever has that been the main platform?

Proof? You do realize all the political parties use it, right?

No. It's a POTENTIAL human life. Big difference. Don't tell me what my definitions for viable are. Who the hell are you?

A child is the offspring of two people. No matter the age. I see people all the time look at an adult and say "Oh! You're so and so's kid/child". I believe "toddler" is the term for a child over a year? Before that it's infant, before that it's newborn. All of them refer to babies.

I'm saying it's none of your fucking business.

OHHH. Potential human life. So you are potentially a contributing member of society? So the old lady in a nursing home who can't get up from her own bed is a potential human life? She has no more ability than a fetus... But it's the same organism, the same composition, a functioning brain, all the organs in some state of formation or decay... So that man doesn't have his hip anymore, or this one's heart doesn't work on it's own anymore. So this person is missing a kidney, or that one had it's appendix removed. Because it lacks a few parts it's not human YET or anymore?

what the fuck are you talking about?

What appears to be your standards for "potential" human life. It's reliant on the mother completely. So what? So are many aged people. So they're only "potential" human life?

You have no idea what my standards for anything are --and you clearly have as much concern for my right to define my own standards as you would for my right over my own body.

You're wonderous

an unborn fetus is not a child

You also conveniently neglected my previous post.

Also, this is not the thread to argue whether you are pro-choice or pro-life, if you'd like to do that go dig up an old one. This thread is SUPPOSED to be about political parties use of pro-choice and pro-life. Did you read the first two posts?

Sooo, how many conservatives are using abortion as a platform? I bet they only use it to help them win, too

Hey, I'm just going by what you set down here in this thread as what you believe to be human life.

No. You're twisting what I say to serve your own opinions. I would remind you that they are only YOUR opinions and they have nothing to do with what another wishes to do with her own body.

What business is it of your's anyway?

OMG Joy, how could you suggest that those perfect, infallable conservatives would do such a thing???

Oh hell, did I speak out of line again?

Yes back to the kitchen with you to wait for your man to put you in line!

Are you having a visit from "Aunt Flo", dear?
