We’re going to look back on this in 200 years and ask ourselves, “did we really kill our children?” just like we ask ourselves today, “did we really allow slavery?”
I think it’s more likely we will look back and wonder that the entire fuss was about given that Republicans got their law passed and turned right around and started pushing 15 week abortion bans … which would legalize 93% of abortions …
And folks will also look back and ask, if those folks were so against abortion, why did the same people fight for abstinence-only sex education and did nothing to push the availability of contraception that would have dramatically reduced the number of unintended pregnancies?
And they’ll also look back and wonder why, if Indiana was such a pro-life state, its maternal mortality rate was so awful. Did they not care about the life of the mother? Why force women’s to carry kids that were not viable until there was a medical emergency, jeopardizing the ability of the woman to have kids in the future?
And they’ll also wonder why, once those kids were in the world, we didn’t care about giving the parents decent child care options and why we underfunded their schools.
It’s almost as though a bunch of politicians formed a union with a bunch of religious extremists that fell apart as soon as the alliance no longer suited both sides.
But most of all, they will look back and wonder why on earth people thought it was good to have Todd Rokita involved as a public official in the matter.
Since when did the right wing ever ask themselves “did we really allow slavery”? P.S It’s not a child…
No DH…that won’t happen.
Jolf–
Are we going to play the “they switched sides” game?
The party that sponsored the New Deal under FDR was the same party that defended Jim Crow, and 100 years earlier, defended slavery. Adlai Stephenson (the Democrat defeated by Eisenhower twice in a row), had an Alabama Congressman named John Sparkman as his running mate. Though Stephenson was more of the bookish, academic type, his running mate was a Dixiecrat, fully in support of poll taxes and other Jim Crow signifiers.
The Democratic party has always fused together coalitions that include people who aren’t customarily “left wing”. I mean, look at how Democrats have cozied up with Islamists in recent years. This doesn’t mean much of anyone today supports slavery on either side, but to pretend that the GOP was leftist while the Dems were the right-wingers in the past is delusional.
And, yes, it IS a child, from the point of a fertilized zygote (blastomere) with unique DNA, it is a human in its earliest stages of development. To pretend otherwise is to be a science-denier. Which I thought was “right wing”.
Jolt R.
The science has come a long way since the mid 70’s.
Since when did the unborn just become unwanted garbage to be just thrown out.
The same people who care so much about the unborn generally don’t care all that much about one of the worst maternal mortality rates in America, nor about the safety, welfare, or education of those kids.
You can complain about the unborn being unwanted garbage. I see a world in which the newly born are unwanted garbage. Arguing about the difference seems like a waste of time to me.
@Lauren. Yes, I believe we can switch sides. And no, a zygote is not actually a child.
is the case that uses RFRA as the reason to overturn the legislature still pending?
Yes.
Telling when the Republican Chief Justice of the Indiana Supreme Court lays out to plaintiffs on how to appeal the new law to be more successful in her court.
Also telling when all the states around Indiana end up being more permissive on the topic of abortion than Indiana does because Indiana legislators refuse to put the matter to the voters.
Banning treatment when a fatal fetal anomaly goes past 20 weeks shows just how Super Stupid Indiana’s Super Stupid Majority is about medical science.
If you can say you’re okay with ending the life of a developing human being, then I at least I beleve you are honest in your support of abortion. If you hide behind terms such as ‘abortion is health care” than you are not coming to terms with what abortion really is.
If abortion is something that people want as little of as possible, why not reduce the number via all available means?
Why are people who are pro-life fixated on banning the procedure as opposed to making the number of people seeking the procedure in the first place very small?
Banning the procedure doesn’t eliminate the demand. It just moves it underground or to something only the wealthy can afford.
Perfect. Another guy telling women what their healthcare looks like.
Rick–
Reproductive rights are a female privilege.
Lauren, that is transphobic. Men can become pregnant too, so they have every right to discuss pregnancy.
