GutterBoy 2,898 Posted August 9, 2023 Looks like Republicans failed at their bid to take power away from the people. Good for the citizens of Ohio to stand up for their rights. https://apnews.com/article/ohio-abortion-rights-constitutional-amendment-special-election-227cde039f8d51723612878525164f1a 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Funny, they're not children until they can survive on their own. Until then a fetus is nothing but a parasite boyo. Like the kind you have living in your gut due to your complete lack of cleanliness.

Just look at the low quality of youth we have. Parents are not great. Why in gods name would we ever want someone willing to kill their offspring to raise a child? It makes no sense. We absolutely want to avoid sluts raising kids. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cdub100 3,835 Posted August 9, 2023 The defeat of Issue 1 on Tuesday keeps in place a simple majority threshold for passing future constitutional amendments, rather than the 60% supermajority that was proposed.

So what your saying is that if the people in the minority vote democrat, then putting the minority view first is all about diversity fairness and equity and equality. But if that minority happens to vote republican then majority should rule as that is fair and just. Got it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I presumed that the amendment was to make abortion illegal, and I was going to say that I don't think that is something that should be in a constitution. Arizona had proposed a similar 60% super majority years ago; I voted for it, but it was shot down there as well IIRC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Weird how the right cries about incels but when women actually have sex with dudes it's all of a sudden on the woman. Republicans really do hate women. And btw, it's a parasite until it can live outside the mom on its own. Even if that means with medical assistance. So stop with the feminine appeal to emotions "they're killing babies boo hoo" nonsense. Republicans are getting so stomped in '24. buriful. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I support abortion....emphatically.....I am an ally. I simply will not use some twisted logic to excuse myself from the moral crime of it. I am advocating for the murder of children, because I see it as a societal good. I could try to let myself off the hook for this by fabricating reasons that perhaps make me feel like I am not wrong for it....but instead I accept that I am wrong....

Something that can't live outside its host is not a member of that species yet. Even if it ultimately could become one. It's most certainly not a child. But I get that folks have different opinions on this. But what the right needs to know is that the vast majority of americans want abortion legal and will come out and vote quite bigly to ensure they have it.

Others have pointed out that, barring rape, the answer is essentially yes, the woman controls who she has sex with and if birth control is used. Your party of science doesn't like the science reality that females bear the offspring of just about every if not every sexual species, and that as such they need to be more judicious in their sexual choices. So the solution is to kill unborn children at-will, WHEEE$#@! Equity! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good to know. My whole life I was responsible in this matter but now I learn I shouldn't have been, it's the woman's problem. Great take. It is. You see no means no......so if a woman agrees to have sex, and then gets pregnant...yep, she made the choice to both a) have sex....and b) not use protection. All she is really doing is removing the inconvenient outcome of her desire to have sex.... Now, if she is raped that is entirely different of course. Regardless.......let them have at it.
