So, if they consent to getting knocked up and there is no traceable history of abuse during their term then they abort, any #MeToo story on this should be disregarded from the get go.

We were expected by that poster to believe they were actually the precipitator of a miracle by praying to God that Hillary Clinton would not win the election and bragged about by starting a thread with that as the title. Now we're to believe they've adopted 4 autistic minority children.

I have the Ark of the Covenant in my Garage and will sell it to you after you post a pay-pal deposit into my bank account in Nigeria.
Do you take Monopoly money? I've been looking for that thing for years.

Come on. Stand up for your beliefs.

I'll never understand the glee liberals have at the thought of killing babies. Ghouls.

OK? This isn't a dog you wish you would have put down to keep it out of its misery. This is a person. A human being. Just more devaluation of human life from the hideous Marxist left.
You go Cheesy...firing on all cylinders now I see. "hideous Marxist left"..... Nothing like a good old fashioned scourge from the bully pulpit to prove your devout religiosity.

Imagine for example (this is not only about Black people) if the poor, Black population was 40% higher since Roe Vs. Wade? That's how many poor, Black babies we've been able to eliminate since Roe vs Wade. Imagine our public education system, our unemployment, our prison system, etc. if they had lived? While it's delicate to talk about in polite company, the Progressives view on this is right. We should have more abortion clinics. Put one on every corner of every poor, minority & immigrant neighborhood. I'd even support offering poor, single, expecting Mothers a one-time payment of $20k to have an abortion & be sterilized. Same with poor men. A one time payment in exchange for being sterilized. Same with incoming immigrants who need government assistance. There's just no reason a poor Somali immigrant (for example) on welfare, plus section 8 housing, plus food stamps, plus every other Govt program under the sun, should be having 7 kids. It would help even out income inequality, help save the environment, reduce the stress of poverty on society & help progress us toward a more perfect society.
This is crazy, almost anyone can get birth control for free. There are candy jars full of rubbers in every dorm of almost every college

According to what, a 1973 case about a Georgia law, Doe v. Bolton? NY can define "health" however it wants and is not bound by SCOTUS's decision in that case. SCOTUS defined "health" as encompassing psychological factors in 1973 and the world still hasn't ended due to shortage of live births due to a waterfall of abortions for mental health reasons, so to say this is a slippery slope argument/fear is an understatement. Read the case and don't just rely on things you hear from other people about it and how "health" was defined. Based on GA's statute, SCOTUS said health "may" be defined as including psychological factors (as in, if a state wants it to, and it is not clear what NY wants because NY seemingly did not define health), and also that a doctor is free to make his or her decision in his or her professional judgment, considering multiple factors of a woman's overall health. The NY law is similarly under a medical professional's discretion.

Again, it's misogynistic and women-hating to think women will start aborting their full-term babies for arbitrary reasons relating to their vague "mental health." No one who understands women or pregnancy would think this. It's equally ridiculous to think doctors will do the same. There will be no epidemic of late-term abortions just because a woman feels like it under the NY law.

None of them will get away with simply "saying it". And you know this.
