In one message, Celeste told Jessica: “Remember we burn the evidence.” … Jessica Burgess was set to undergo a court-ordered psychological evaluation ahead of her sentencing. But the evaluation was canceled due to lack of funding, according to KTIV. Dystopian on every level 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 A quick google search shows that this abortion happened at 28 weeks -- at about 7 months [clearly a viable baby]. If that's the hill you want to die on, you do you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AbsolutSurgen Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I wonder what has caused Americans to assume such extreme positions. Most of the World -- Women should be free to have an abortion in the first trimester (up to 13-15 weeks). Abortions can be had later if there is danger to the mother's life and/or the fetus is nonviable. American Right -- Once the sperm has entered the vulva, though shalt not do anything to prevent birth on pain of prison. American Left -- Until that baby is born, at least 90% out of the vagina, it's a fucking clump of cells that can be aborted on a whim. 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How about you go fuck yourself and disappear from this sections of the forums again. I really don't have the energy to argue with a fuck like you. You tried to argue a slippery slope argument in the past as your starting point. So again go fuck off into the sun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The position actually is that since 99%+ of abortions at that stage are for emergency medical reasons, putting a barely passed the bar 1st year lawyer who's on call at 2am into the decision making process (who's sole responsibility is to protect the hospital, not the patient) is a really bad idea. "Most of the world" gives sole override authority to the doctor and that decision isn't subject to review. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

b_m_b_m_b_m Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Like “the left wants at will abortion up to and even after birth” is the most deranged made up bullshit that I see on tv and in ads right now since there’s very contested state elections here this November, and what I have seen here for years and yet with full legislative control the democrats in no state have suggested this let alone pass it in to law. log off and touch grass 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SoberChef Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 Abortion should be a legal, viable, safe option to terminate pregnancies early. It should ALWAYS remain as such, regardless of religious or personal beliefs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paperclyp Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 This is newsworthy and I think there's room for nuance / conflict in how you feel with a person who is in the third trimester of a pregnancy. But Nebraska recently passed a law making anything past 12 weeks illegal. Which is fucked up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paperclyp Posted September 23, 2023 Share Posted September 23, 2023 I didn't make my newsworthy comment as transparent as I actually feel about it. In a properly functioning society, this is a difficult thing to try to litigate - not just the pregnancy but the subsequent mistakes these two individuals made in how they handled it (ignoring whether or not you feel they were in the right to terminate the pregnancy). But I feel like the people who are "pro life" and super passionate about that side get the sense that this is how MOST abortions occur, and it's absolutely true that the grifters and people who want to make this always THE issue people vote on encourage that line of thought. When in reality this is a very unusual case, but because it is unusual it will get a ton of headlines and national play. Which just reinforces that misconception. So it's like...yes... this should be reported on I guess, but we are far too broken of a society for any good to come out of this. And the media does a poor job of providing context with the abortion issue in general, so there's just no shot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
