Expecting of this strata of people to understand the common man or woman in the street is a very big ask indeed. 


Sadly, no truer words were ever spoken.

They do think that about the poor. I don't think you're mistaken on that. They tend to think poverty is a choice, and people just need to 'pull themselves up by the boot straps' In a recent FB debate about the cost of living crisis in the UK, one conservative piped up that people should stop moaning about the salaries of CEO's. The solution being to simply 'become a CEO' yourself.
Yes, I heard that too. Karl Marx must be turning over in his grave!

It's indeed   strange times when pot smoking is legal but abortion might not be. Good news on the Bubblemath release. If you say it's good, I'll definitely check it out.

I'm surprised this has lasted three pages without being blocked.

Anyway, I support a woman's right to choose. The opposite position doesn't make sense to me. The argument that all life is sacred, even from conception, doesn't stack up, from a religious perspective, when you consider how much life is slain in the name of God.

That's obvious, but the main problem is lower income women going without. A lot of them. We need to do better in that regard.


You said birth control should've made abortion a thing of the past so if it's obvious you wouldn't have made that comment.

Whatever the case i don't really get involved in this topic often because it's basically the blind leading the blind.

Firstly, in the modern world self-induced morning after contraception is easily obtained through natural herbal remedies.

Secondly, there is a difference between the US Republic and the US corporation.

Only corporate franchises aka citizens are subject to the corporate policies.

True most are still woefully unaware of these escape mechanisms but in the last few years the # of US nationals who have redesignated their status has risen from a mere 50 thousand to over 5 million.

In other words if  you are not a corporate franchise of the parent corporation then absolutely ZERO of their policies apply. Yeah it's more complicated when ignorance is the norm but in terms of legal jurisdiction it is true.

This means abortion is a privacy right. Privacy does not exist when one is subject to the rules and regulations of a corporation through contractual consent. Once these contracts are rescinded there is no jurisdiction of the three tiers of law that apply therefore abortion is a private matter outside of the jurisdiction of the UCC (Uniform Commercial Code) which is the basis for Maritime Admiralty Law which is what all nation states are based upon.
Sorry I couldn't answer you in detail yesterday Mr. Pup, but you're condescending tone of "blind leading the blind" puts you in a class with the crayon wielding Mr. Trane. No drug or medical treatment is 100% effective and that includes herbal remedies. But contraception has more than one aspect, namely:

  • Cap.
  • Combined pill.
  • Condoms.
  • Contraceptive implant. 
  • Contraceptive injection.
  • Contraceptive patch.
  • Diaphragm. (IUD)
  • Female condoms.
  • Spermicides.
  • and "morning after" treatments. 



Used in tandem, these measures have a combined effective rate of 99%. And in medicine, you can't get better than that. Are two or more contraceptive measures a pain to implement? Sure, but it beats gets an abortion. As far as totally eliminating abortions, that can never happen, as I stressed cases of rape or medically necessary abortions would still be needed. So how can I have said they would be totally eliminated? But if they were rare, we wouldn't be having this discussion.

Hi,

I'm just watching the assault on the CONSTITUTION and the folks that couldn't careless what it stood for!

And that includes a bunch of folks that think of themselves as judges and are no less enamored with their class than any dishwasher in a restaurant. It is sickening to say the least. The display of honor and appreciation for history and it all ... is a long gone proposition ... something lost in time, that will destroy a country that meant well, but lost its footing along the way!
Music is not just for listening ... it is for LIVING ... you got to feel it to know what's it about! Not being told!

Of course but choice is only freedom of choice if everything  is disclosed.

That is not the case in pretty much  EVERYTHING in the modern world.

Choice is only relevant if those who making the choice are fully informed and in the case of the modern wold many are TRICKED into contractual agreements through changing of terminology.

Puppy, never mind what Steve says (one thing and its exact opposite in the next post)Wacko

This thread is mostly males discussing an issue that should concern women only (or mostly).

It's amazing to see that an  Censored unknowing male Pig would imagine women prefer using abortion to other methods. This is outrageous and preposterous: like not knowing women at all and the trauma of having surgical tools toying inside their uterus.

Sure, the pill - once presented as the miracle solution - has been decried in the last 15 years because of increased health risk (including strokes)  was (and still is) the most efficient solution. So have vaccines of all sorts (this is why we're seeing some illnesses reappearing four/five decades after we thought they'd been eradicated.. That came with the birth of social networks crap. 

I bet you that 80 or 90% of the women looking to abort are upper-class students/professional in order of not interrupting (or ending) their career, rather than lower class.

Steve's stance is pro-conservative...
I concede that pills are 95% effective, (A damn good effective rate for any drug, btw.) But that's not focusing on the larger problem. Look up statistics as to what economic group is most vulnerable. You might learn something. And I would make quite an odd conservative hawking contraception. Wacko But you wouldn't understand that, would you?
