25 white men - all Republicans - just voted to ban abortion in Alabama

[Will Hunting]

again, idgaf about any other country so they're laws and politics don't mean one bit to me.

as for the good ol' USA, well we'll all just have to keep getting upset over nothing. none of yall are affected by this, right? yall are programmed to be upset; tell the truth.

as for me, i don't care. be a , don't be a , do whatever you want as long as you leave me the alone. i'm still going to have the opinion though that killing a baby is wrong whether you think it's a clump of cells or not.

I’m absolutely affected by this. There’s plenty of studies that show Roe v. Wade led a huge decrease in violent crime across the country, and there’s also a lot more people on welfare and public assistance if abortion is outlawed. It affects how your tax dollars and my dollars are allocated.

A bunch racists attacking people based on their skin color. Tell me again who the party of racists is.

If I reply to you about how tough white people have it will that make you stop complaining?

[koriwhat]

It's not black and white. It's easy vs. hard.

i could go down a path that questions everything you laid out but it would just be what if's and what not. i'm not trying to change your mind so i won't go down that path.

just realize no issue is as clear as black & white or easy & hard to deal with.

Post-Roe America Won't Be Like Pre-Roe America. It Will Be Worse.

The new abortion bans are harsher than the old ones.

While doctors were prosecuted for abortions before Roe, patients rarely were.

Today, in states that have legislated fetal personhood,

women are already arrested on su ion of harming or endangering their fetuses, including by using drugs, attempting suicide or, in a case in Utah, delaying a cesarean section.

There’s no reason to believe that, in states where abortion is considered homicide, prosecutors will be less punitive when investigating it.

the new laws seek to curtail medical discretion.

Under the Alabama measure, doctors can perform abortions only when a woman is facing death or “serious risk of substantial physical impairment of a major bodily function.”

Otherwise, abortion is a class A felony, and Reagan said the potential 99-year prison sentence it carries is far longer than any punishment a doctor could have faced in pre-Roe America.

Alabama law explicitly likens abortion to a crime against humanity.

a signal to prosecutors to treat it as an extraordinarily grave transgression.

the Georgia law, which, as Mark Joseph Stern points out in Slate, has language that criminalizes self-induced abortion.

Nor are women who abort exempt from punishment in the most recent version of Louisiana’s six-week abortion ban.

Republican politicians in other states are clearly interested in locking women up;

last month Texas legislators held a hearing on a bill that would allow women who have abortions to be

charged with homicide and potentially subject to the death penalty. pro-life!

there were almost 200 reported deaths from illegal abortion just in 1965, 17 percent of all deaths from pregnancy and childbirth that year.

Each year thousands of women were hospitalized for botched abortions.

Granting personhood to fetuses has already enabled some states to subject women to new types of social control

Rather than moving backward, we’re charting awful new frontiers.

funny... ask chicago how much violent crimes have dropped considering there's probably tons of unplannedparenthood's up in that city. as well, welfare is already out the roof yet it would be worse? crocodile tears is all i see.

[Spurminator]

So reducing people to the color of their skin is okay now. Used to be racist but I guess that's outdated.

This actually goes right into the blatantly racist against whites archive I have in this forum tbh.

Jesus Christ, cry some more, boy.

Sorry about your uterus, dude.

[Spurminator]

I ing love being a white male, tbh. I can't imagine feeling like it was a disadvantage.

Things would really have to be going poorly for you in the first place, and you'd have to compound that with a complete lack of perspective or experience to think your whiteness is the cause of your problems.

Nathan, get a therapist, buddy.

[Nathan89]

"I don't like when they shine light on our objective racism that we have normalized"

[Nathan89]

Sorry about your uterus, dude.

Sorry about your racism problem. Calling me a female to insult me is also a nice touch.

[Spurminator]

Defend your racists.

You first, white .

we need to ship her ass back to somalia so she can their up instead. that dumb !

No, because she's clearly a massive positive for.this country. Japan and China won't be able to compete now that we have her.

wtf are we importing all these idiots in the first place? so ing dumb!

For some reason people recognize you need standards when a corporation hires someone but no standards are fine when it comes to a country.

he/she is just scared about being labeled "islamophobic"... idgaf! illhan and her ilk!

[Will Hunting]

Nathan89 what opportunities do you think you lost out on by being white?

[Pavlov]

Sorry about your racism problem. Calling me a female to insult me is also a nice touch.

Did that offend you?

My only racism problem is muh privilege is pretty over the top and nonsensical.

[Avant]

Sorry about your uterus, dude.

Pavlov, always talking posters, what a freak.

[Nathan89]

Nathan89 what opportunities do you think you lost out on by being white?

Imagine thinking this is a reasonable response to someone calling out racists.

[Nathan89]

You first, white .

It's not racist to have high immigration standards. But you are objectively racist.

[Spurminator]

Please detail which non-racial standards you believe were overlooked in Congresswoman Omar's immigration to the United States, white .

[Pavlov]

Pavlov, always talking posters, what a freak.

Avante's losing his .

He's gonna start bumping threads and following me around.

The banning countdown has begun.
