Filthy @Filthy !!! He said you can't tax them!!fite
equality before the law.

no special exemptions for words, only actions.
Costs associated with feeding homeless people can be tax exempt, costs associated with sound systems, buildings, salaries, etc should be income taxed.

or just end income tax, which is a tax on production, and replace it with a tax on consumption - like a sales tax.

can we just change the name from abortion to legal murder and let whoever wants to commit it deal with their guilty conscience and call it a day?

If a 14 year old girl is raped and graciously allowed by other people to get an abortion, she should never forget that, on top of being raped, she commited legal murder?

On top of that this isn't like getting a haircut. It's a heavy decision and procedure to go through for anybody.

I am unfamiliar with the procedure, so I cannot speak to the physical ramifications that the procedure has on women.

And although I agree with your sentiment on how it is a hard decision for some people, it's not necessarily a hard decision for every woman. And it shouldn't be. It's not murder.

Is there any point in pregnancy that you think would be too late for an abortion?

K @kaladin stormblessed , forgive me but I can’t help but chuckle from your posts in this thread. Why, you ask? Because I have always pictured you as the type that would chase kids, who just knocked a bird’s nest with eggs in it out of a tree, down the street yelling “Murderers!”

Since I cannot get pregnant, I have never put too much thought into it other than one time a girlfriend and I had "a scare." So that is a question which I am unprepared to answer, but I will try to do so.

When I was a Catholic, I believed in the concept of souls. So, in the past, I believed that life began at conception. I no longer believe those things.

With that said, the idea of an abortion gets more and more uncomfortable as it gets closer to 9 months. I think the third trimester was a decent cutoff, which is what Roe v Wade said if I am not mistaken.

But one day short of 7 months vs one day past 7 months is the same thing. It's an arbitrary number. So I guess ultimately, I wouldn't argue against a woman aborting a baby at any time.

In other words, I trust that women can make the decision about their bodies without my input.

I mean... i would get mad at that lol. I do think protecting unborn life is a good thing. But, as Q @Qat mentioned, abortions aren't always an easy decision. So I don't believe that women who choose to get abortions should be shamed.
