Also did you take that screenshot? @The Lemon
Yes why?
And it's not a weak view
Because of it, whether you agree with the idea of abortion or not, banning it will only create more suffering and will never get you the desired outcome
That's not a weak view that's thinking about the consequences of your actions
Just wondering. And, it's a weak view because saying "Well, people will break the law anyway" can basically be used to invalidate every law ever passed. Murder is illegal, but damn, people still kill each other. Drugs such as heroin are illegal, but people are still ODing.
A good comparison would be disciplining a child. If the child does something bad, you might threaten to take away, say, a toy. If your child says they'll throw a tantrum do you simply say "Oh, well I don't want that, I won't take your toy away because I don't want to listen to a tantrum"?
As for the actual proposed law itself, I can't actually seem to *find* the damn thing. Like, the entire proposed law in writing detailing what will and will not be banned. Just a bunch of second hand sources via NY times or some other brain melting opinion piece
There should be no gun laws
Cuz bad people will get gun anyway
Yea, it's a weak justification that detracts from the actual discussion imo
It's especially hilarious watching people compare this to The Handmaid's tale
Yoikes
I've watched the show and it literally features women (those who are still fertile) being forcefully raped and mutilated in order to bare children. Not at all comparable.
It's the feminist equivalent of "drumpf is literally hitler"
True
What confuses me is so many people seem to have a strong view on this law but nobody has been able to actually send me the proposed legislation. Wouldn't you read it over before forming an opinion?
People should
But i think its just instagram thots posting their opinions and people just adopt them
If I can't find it I'll probably just have to way until Andrew releases a video over at DWR
@Billcat I mean what I know about the law is that it criminalises abortion when a heartbeat is first seen which can be as early as 6 weeks, when most people don't even know they are pregnant. I also know that it treats it similarly to murder or manslaughter meaning that in some cases it could lead to the death penalty
I also know that it follows you through states meaning that it's an infringement upon purples rights to free movement between states.
Well, see, that's where my problem is. I'm speaking to another person right now and they are claiming the bill begins life begins at conception, so clearly there is a general unknowingness of the specifics of the bill
Which is why I'd like to be able to read it before I have any strong views regarding it
wait don't trust me on this im really unsure
I think we all are unsure
But if you find the bill could you link us it
The bar should be set based on what the job requires
Roe v Wade is fuming rn
I disagree women are needed at home and shouldn't be in combat. I know someone who told me he left the military as soon as they started putting women into combat roles because he knew that when a girl dies in the battlefield morale goes down. For some reason it affects men big time.
Also the 19th amendment was originally suppose to be for black men having rights and not women. Why? Because they actually fight and die for their rights.
