    No. Fuck off with that. Not every abortion is about trauma and tragedy and using that framing plays into the christofascist’s hands. Women are humans. Humans have bodily autonomy. Ergo, women have b

Had a meeting with a large OB practice tonight and the entire meeting was about Roe v Wade and the impact to practicing in light of the trigger laws that went into place in our state. It’s pretty scary as the father of two girls the list of issues they see that would potentially be legal issues in our state. Even more concerning was that our local state reps blew them off when they brought it up.

Go Joe.

I’m pro-Patty who was assaulted and raped one night as a student walking alone. If she had been impregnated and forced to bear the child of her rapist, it would’ve wrecked her. Not to mention how the child couldn’t possibly have dealt with that reality. If you support the victims of rape being forced to bear the children of their rapists, don’t you dare call yourself a Christian. You are pure evil. You are an instrument of hate. Ignorance -> Fear -> Intolerance -> Hate. Jesus taught love. You are an agent of hate. You should be glad that Saint Peter won’t be waiting for you after you pass because he’d have some serious questions for you that you wouldn’t be able to answer.

I mean this euphemistically, but go to hell. All of you.

Don't worry, rape rarely leads to pregnancy

 

 

Let's think this through.  One case in her vast 11 years of law enforcement experience led to a rape victim becoming pregnant.

OK.  How many rape cases did she work, total?  How many of those women were not on birth control?  In how many of those cases did the assailant ejaculate in the woman?  In how many of those cases was the woman within the ~ 7 day window (per 28) of being capable of getting pregnant?

I mean, I'd be a terrible attorney but it wouldn't be too hard to destroy this silly line of "reasoning" in a court of law.

They are screaming it from the mountaintops of Twitter.  That is a very small mountaintop.  The vast, vast majority of people will never see this.

"Within a matter of months, women in about half of the United States may be breaking the law if they decide to end a pregnancy. This will be, in large part, because Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito is surprised that there is so little written about abortion in a four-thousand-word document crafted by fifty-five men in 1787. As it happens, there is also nothing at all in that document, which sets out fundamental law, about pregnancy, uteruses, vaginas, fetuses, placentas, menstrual blood, breasts, or breast milk. There is nothing in that document about women at all. Most consequentially, there is nothing in that document—or in the circumstances under which it was written—that suggests its authors imagined women as part of the political community embraced by the phrase “We the People.” There were no women among the delegates to the Constitutional Convention. There were no women among the hundreds of people who participated in ratifying conventions in the states. There were no women judges. There were no women legislators. At the time, women could neither hold office nor run for office, and, except in New Jersey, and then only fleetingly, women could not vote. Legally, most women did not exist as persons."

I'm not sure criminal penalties are the problem, so much as access. They won't have to prosecute women, they just close the clinics. Can't get (safe) abortions if there aren't clinics to provide them.

And, apparently, her actual law enforcement career is substantially shorter than 11 years.  She left for Korea with her husband in 2012 and didn't resume until 2016.  And there's zero indication that she was an actual rape investigator.  Indeed, her LEO experience post-2016 appears to be as a deputy sheriff, where the county sheriff has no general law-enforcement responsibility.

Class C felony in TN for provider punishable by 3-15 years, nothing in the law for the person having the abortion currently although you would think conspiracy or solicitation could come into play. There are also no exceptions here after 6 weeks assuming the trigger law goes into effect, so ending a pregnancy under any circumstance after 6 weeks would be against the law.

They didn’t even know what human sperm and ova were. And the religious nuts follow a religious text that never recognized an unborn fetus, not that “fetus” was a concept they understood, as a person with rights. But they didn’t even know where the sun went at night. They thought the world was flat. Jesus thought that stars could fall to earth. These are people undereducated in both their scripture and in science.

Stupid people making stupid laws.

Virtue signaling.

Same shit bags that were "We support the troops" with slogans only.

My ex and myself were personally Pro-Life while being politically Pro-Choice. We had 4 kids and were also foster parents. We were part of the Anti-war movement but supported families of troops deployed.

Once my ex got into big Facebook fight with some Christian women who said she was anti-American. She went on a rant about how we were doing lawn work, house maintenance and baby sitting for two families of deployed soldiers from their church and the only thing they ever do is send prayers and say God Bless America on Facebook. It was a pretty good rant.

Anyways, these people are all about theatrics without any real commitment.

I've been following this case since it started (even teaching about it in graduate Education classes)... the "retaliate against players who didn't join him" is news to me. It wasn't covered in any of the newspapers or other stories written about it (and we're not exactly conservative friendly here in Seattle), it didn't show up in any of the previous court case details that I can recall. Can someone point me to something substantive? 

The court decision is still wrong- case that was open and shut all across the nation, even was denied a SCOTUS hearing on one other occasion. When this first came to light, the district offered him a place to pray in private (accommodating his freedom of religion) and even told him he could pray on the field after everyone had left (and he was heading home) if he wished. He initially accepted the offer of privacy until a conservative legal group stepped in and offered to represent him.

This may have been covered as well- but a number of community members were also concerned when a group of Satanists showed up at the game to support him (and, therefore, their right to be on the field after games as well).

Like a said- the decision was a bad one.

I have nothing substantive, but I seem to have read somewhere* that at least two players had given statements that they felt like there was unspoken "coercion" about attending the prayer. The attorneys certainly included those statements in their filings.

 

edit to add: "somewhere" almost certainly being a link posted on one of these threads, or maybe a New Yorker article.

Does the Supreme Court, as a creature of the society it serves and is part of, carrying many of that society's same flaws, sometimes miss that certain rights are inherent in all people, and then have to later correct itself?

Yes.  See Plessy v. Ferguson leading to Brown v. Board of Education (the point that our own senior senator tried to make, but was too fucking inept to do, and too fucking dumb to realize he had it ass-backwards), taking a case that said that an entire racial group actually didn't have true equal rights, and correcting the fuck out of that idiocy.  Oh, and if you actually want to look at "longstanding history" (the apparent standard that Alito would have us apply), the overwhelming, almost completely unidirectional path of history, has been that society is slow to recognize and follow rights for "out" groups, but eventually does so.

What we have never, ever seen -- from SCOTUS and frankly, in Western history (with notable exceptions, which are both relevant and analogous here -- I'll get to those) -- is a lurch in the opposite direction, voiding a right that has been recognized for a long-ass time (two generations).  We HAVE seen western societies lurch that direction before.  Fascist Italy.  Nazi Germany.  Various medieval governments and entities that afforded jews some protections, and then withdrew them and persecuted the fuck out of jews again when it was politically expedient.  In the class of "nations/societies that have had a right for an out/marginalized group, but then revoked that right," we are in super ultra mega shitty company.

And underneath ALL of this is the actual right that got revoked.  The right to privacy as it relates to bodily autonomy.  Clarence Thomas said they are coming for the right to choose contraception, the right to engage in private, consensual sex with another adult regardless of gender and the nature of the act, and the right to obtain the benefits of state-sanctioned marriage without regard to the gender of the participant (fucking HYSTERICAL that he left out the 4th member of that group of cases, Loving, which acknowledged the right to his own interracial marriage....don't worry, Clarence, they'll come for that, too).  He's dead right, and I credit him for his honesty, even if it came about because he is a dumbass as opposed to being ethical and honorable.  You and your pals are too fucking stupid to realize what Dobbs actually does.  Dobbs is only facially about abortion.  It is really about the foundational issue that had to be decided before the matter of abortion could be reached: you do not have any constitutional right to control your own body.  Because we're a hung-up, retrograde society, we think that only relates to matters revolving around sex (contraception, buttfucking, gay marriage).  But it's so, so, so much more than that.

Congratulations, conservatives.....you got what you wanted.  And all it does is give us a choice of future hellscapes.  Do you want the conservative one, where it's illegal to have any sort of sex except with your opposite gender spouse, in certain positions, with no contraceptives allowed?  Or do you want the insane, ultra-control "progressive" one, where you'll be longing for the days that all that was imposed were public mask mandates and vaccine passes?  Pick, but you no longer get to vote for "none of the above," because your body is no longer yours.  It belongs to whichever power faction happens to have control of the government at any given time.  Which obviates the whole fucking point of rights, which are supposed to be bedrock inviolable constants.

Congratulations.  You did it.

Did what?  read the constitution?

 

there too many wrong in this ramble to list them all, lowlights include.

 

- the history as god theory.  Saying the present has to follow the perceived path of the past is just another abortion of circular logic.   Case in point, the Germans would say History has long marched towards national socialism and all individuals must fall in liiiiiine.

- But that is not even the history of American law.  Power has been flowing to the government from the people for over 100 years.  Take any limitation on federal power and try to say it hasn't been diluted: interstate commerce means non-commercial activity that remains in state.  Freedom of association means punishment for association.  Freedom of speech outside of 5 million exceptions etc. 

 

- "we think that only relates to matters revolving around sex (contraception, buttfucking, gay marriage)." [abortion, cross-dressing, transomething]  Well YOU think that.  Did you ever notice the only place Ds care about individual rights is the genitals?

I don't doubt that... We teach about the concept of authoritative pressure and expectation, but there seems to be a difference between "we felt like we were supposed to" and "we were punished if we didn't"

Well, it is apparently true that "practicing Christians" adopt at higher rates than the rest of "us."  https://adoption.org/who-adopts-the-most

But that doesn't account for whether they're pro-life fundagelicals or something else.

Regardless, as long as there's a huge surplus of unadopted children, all modes of family planning should remain on the table.
