Be better k**l in womb than suffer them death through malnutration a slow death an mistreatment


And who are you to decide what is the "best" death for a child? When is the last time a child, any child, starved to death in the United States of America?

Sometimes an unfortunate child is left in the care of a crazy abusive adult but that doesn't mean it's better for the child to be dead. It means we have to rescue the child as quickly as possible and make sure the adult is never allowed near another child.

We have dozens of safety nets for abused kids - the trick is for the child to find his way to the safe havens.

Senate Republicans and Democrat Joe Manchin teamed up to block the advancement of legislation that would federally codify a******n rights.

Senate Republicans And Joe Manchin Block Women’s Health Protection Act
Every Senate Republican and Democrat Joe Manchin (WV) v**ed against advancing legislation to protect a woman’s right to an a******n. Democrats could not get the 60 v**es needed to advance the legislation.

Schumer Warns Republicans That The American People Are Watching And Will Not Forget
Before the v**e, Senate Majority Leader Schumer said on the Senate floor:
Our kids will grow up in a country with fewer rights than those who came before them.

You said: "Our kids will grow up in a country with fewer rights than those who came before them." Might I point out that if you continue to k**l our kids in the womb they won't need any rights because they are already dead."

Facetiousness aside, nobody is taking away "rights". Because a******ns are not a matter of the constitution the Justices are turning everything over to the states to do with as they will. They are not:
1. taking away rights
2. ending a******ns
3. passing any kind or type of legislation affecting states right to decide for themselves.
4. changing a state law or ruling
5. denying anybody any right they are not enjoying at this moment in time.

Most importantly I remind everyone that a woman's control over her body begins BEFORE the first moment of intimacy with a man. An unwanted pregnancy is the result of a woman being out of control of her own body not the cause!

Just between you and me, she uses a $99 Epson scanner too.


Now I'm really impressed. I used an old cardboard candy box to make my self a "container' to keep the scanner cover from hitting the flowers and an ancient piece of black cloth as a back drop. The first result is horrible (washed out flowers, a hideous gray/black back gound) but five minutes in photoshop puts everything right.

Been a while since I've had this much fun.

Thank you for the reading material. I have no idea what I'm doing with this "scanner" project so maybe I'll learn something.

AFL SUES BIDEN ADMIN OVER RECORDS RELATING TO PURGING CHRISTIANS, CONSERVATIVES FROM THE MILITARY



WASHINGTON–Yesterday, America First Legal (AFL) filed a lawsuit against the Biden Administration to compel the release of records relating to the Department of Defense’s role in supporting an “ideological cleansing” of political conservatives and Christians from the military.

In May 2021, AFL learned of credible reports that the Department of Defense (DOD) was potentially engaged in anti-conservative purges within DOD. This reporting suggested that DOD and White House operatives were engaging in manifestly unlawful conduct detrimental to U.S. national security solely to punish and suppress constitutionally permitted speech. In response, AFL filed a Freedom of Information Act request with DOD seeking documents related to these allegations and to uncover the degree to which the Biden Administration was imposing woke politics on our active duty military.

It is the duty of the Biden Administration to support our brave warfighters and ensure the U.S. military’s unquestioned status as the most lethal fighting force in the world. Any attempt to use the military as a vehicle for social engineering, woke politics, or political agendas is antithetical to the military’s mission and is entirely unacceptable.

The Biden Administration must not be allowed to hide the degree to which it has attempted to purge conservatives from the military and impose woke politics on our nation’s service members. The public deserves to know the full extent of the Biden Administration’s role in any attempted liberal indoctrination of the country’s armed forces.

Statement From America First Legal Counsel Reed Rubinstein:

“The Biden Administration catastrophically failed in Afghanistan. It is demonstrably unprepared for the strategic and tactical challenges presented by China and Russia. It cannot even deter Iran, a second rate power at best, from conducting terrorist operations worldwide, threatening U.S. government officials with assassination, or developing and deploying ballistic missiles and a nuclear bomb. In fact, the only thing that the Biden team has proven capable of doing is forcing our war fighters to suffer woke indoctrination,” Rubinstein said.

“In May 2021, AFL requested the Department of Defense make public records showing the Biden Administration’s plans to enforce woke ideology and to punish or purge our soldiers who have conservative political or Christian religious beliefs. The Biden team has stonewalled our request, and so we have filed suit to enforce the law. AFL stands with our service members; we will expose the t***h and fight for their rights.”

Read the lawsuit.

None of the images were made with a camera. Everything came from an Epson Scanner.

What if they adopt a child. Is their value as a Mother of any less value?

By the way.....according to the folks from your part of the political world we no longer have "mothers" we have "birthing people".

Did you read your second source all the way to the end or just the headline? This is from the last sentence.

"Ms Totenberg’s suggestion was at odds with the messaging that has come from top Republicans in the days since Justice Alito’s draft"

Did you read your link all the way to the final paragraph? This is what it said. - which is the exact opposite of your "theory".

"Logic suggests a clerk had calculated that this inevitable reaction from the pro-choicers would bode stronger for the justices who need just one counterpart to flip toward the side of upholding Roe, than for the side that needs the conservative justices to stand firm."

Thus, Nina Totenberg’s “leading theory” that this leak came from a conservative clerk is ambitious at best.

What responsibilities does the fetus have in exchange for rights?


The same rights you will have if and when you reach the state of helplessness: I have a friend that was struck down with MS. She cannot walk, talk or communicate with others. She cannot feed herself, cannot bath herself. She must be lifted from wheel chair to bed. Her husband passed away last year and her son ignores her so she is now the ward of the state, unable to take on any responsibilities on her own.

She is helpless, does she still have rights or should they be removed because she is no longer able to accept responsibility for herself?

You're right, sterilization can be a freeing experience. I had a tubal ligation after the birth of my third child but, being female, I had to fight two doctors to make it happen. I didn't go out knocking on any doors though.
