    Strength and courage be with law enforcement tonight. I do not envy you, but do support you and hate the restraint and abuse you are forced to endure.

    This is not about Roe v. Wade, this has been going on for 7 years now and is yet another oppotunity for them to lash out against you and civility.

    The true "protester's" will be gone before the violence and aggression ensues, or at most shortly thereafter.

    Protesters do not wear masks and safety gear nor carry riot shields and fireworks. Women's rights supporters do not need to loot and burn high end retailers.

    Need to rethink the ban on abortion a bit, I think.

    Let us legalize abortion, but only to the 2 persons needed to procreate. A male and a female, if you disagree with these two components you give up the right.

    The female component of the ritual controls the final say. If she chooses to abort, all costs associated with such are her responsibilty. Costs are waved in the event of rape, non consensual fertilization or the unknown threat of loss of life to mother or child.

    That said, with consensual sex resulting in impregnation, both parties are responsible, then both parties should have a say in it. If the male chooses not to go through with having a child, he should be able to opt out and abort responsibility of the child yet to be born. His sperm, his choice.

    Watch responsibility increase.

    Why does the female get to decide if the fetus lives or dies, but the male in the equation has no choice and potentially pays 18 years worth of child support?

    No, because whores are whores regardless of male/female; and that results in abortion on demand as the primary form of birth control.

    Why is "my body, my choice" more important than "my sperm, my choice"?


    Her eggs, his sperm. Pregnancy does not occur without both.

    50/50 right?

    I don't disagree with that, I just disagree with abortion. Especially if two reprobates both want to use it as a form of post-conception birth control.

    I agree with that. Sonograms can tell you if ut is a boy or girl early on. They do not tell you if it is a non gender. Abortions should be elective procedures, and accountability on the denier of birth.

    If abortion is legal for women, then men who choose to abort should be waved of parental rights and custodial payments.

    I see what you're saying here.
    The male shouldn't be trapped if it's only the female that wants to carry the baby to term.

    There's an interesting libertarian conundrum there, but I think that that would end up causing more babies to be aborted in the long term. Women who were on the fence about getting the procedure done may look at it like the dad doesn't want anything to do with it so how is she going to afford it kind of thing.

    Not happy to admit this, but Mrs. Noodles watches 16 and Pregnant on MTV kind of frequently on the weekends. Which means I have seen way more episodes of that than I care to admit myself. I realize that a lot of it is probably scripted drama, but some of the young fathers end up becoming responsible adults because they are forced to contribute to the kid's financial well being.

    There's no way to figure out an actual number, but you have to figure that pre Roe v Wade a fairly significant percentage of marriages that ended up producing great loving families started out as a whoops and a shotgun wedding.

    Want more of something? Subsidize it.
    The adoption process is ridiculously expensive.

    Expensive and hard to terminate rights of parents.
    1800 a day will be a burden. People need to learn about birth control. Or even abstain until marriage.
    But they will subsidize people on welfare for having more kids

    Didn't mean to imply it would be easy.
