all of these scenarios y'all keep coming up with are simply fear mongering


I have no issue with the SC overturning RvW and allowing individual states to make their own decisions. I'm simply stating that there may be some pregnancies that are not avoidable and those cases (while maybe rare) can't be ignored.

If a mother would be willing to abort a baby, but she is unable to due to law, what type of situation is that to be born into? Will this cause more or less societal problems?

They can be avoided by taking immediate actions after the rape.

In the case that a person delays action due to whatever reason, they can still go to another state.

And if they can't get to another state, there will still be underground clinics.

Acting like people are going to be forced to have babies due to rape is nonsense.

Accountability. Learn it. Love it. Live it. If you are deeply concerned about not having the ability to get an abortion....then don't fricking get pregnant. There are numerous inexpensive and readily available means of PREVENTATIVE birth control. I'm sure there are many on here (well maybe not on the soccer board) who have been able to engage in sexual intercourse numerous times without such resulting in a pregnancy simply because they took steps to avoid that potential outcome on the FRONT end. Just a modicum of forethought and responsibility could complete eliminate being faced with making a "poor decision" on the back end.

Accountability to support these unwanted people will fall on those with financial means, not just those making the poor decisions.

OK. A woman's water breaks early in the pregnancy and she develops an infection inside the uterus.

All this does is push this issue back to the states, where it belongs.

I believe most jurisdictions offer the victim Plan B immediately after the medical exam and I don't have a problem with that.

OTOH you would be surprised at the number of women who have had abortions, some you would never guess in a million years. Others who would at least like to have the option, just in case. 


At the end of the day, this is an issue that affects women, who vote their emotions. It will 100% drive many women to vote for whichever party promises to give them back a "right" which was taken away. Anyone who chooses to think expensive gas or home prices will outweigh that doesn't understand women at all.

I don't know. Seems very specific to the person and their situation.

I don't have a problem with abortion due to rape.

Its a terrible circumstance and the woman's right to choice was stripped of her.

Not for November it isn't.


There are three groups.

1. Psychos who think killing unborn babies is a right.
2. People who don't have a strong opinion either way but answer polling questions on the side of it should be legal some of the time.
3. People who know abortion is terrible and should be outlawed in all cases.

Only one of those groups will allow this decision to affect their vote come November.

This 100%. It really is that simple. Anyone screeching about this decision is a very low-IQ individual.

So then you agree with me that killing a baby will do nothing to help some people achieve any form of upward mobility.


There’s a really funny article written by WaPo as a “gotcha” against states enacting abortion laws. What the don’t realize is the dire awful situation they attempt to paint glosses over the fact that this girl’s life is now improved because she didn’t have an abortion.
WaPo: Texas teen wanted abortion, now she has twins

It’s behind a paywall. One i don’t pay for, but the of the gist of the story is this 17 year old high school dropout met a skater boy, fell in love, got pregnant.

The skater boy worked as a dishwasher at a local restaurant and had 0 aspirations before this happened. So, as a decent young man, he married her, joined the Navy, got them insurance, and now has a steady job.


Now, obviously this isn’t going to work out for everyone, but it’s hilarious that WaPo chose this story as a gotcha and attempted to ignore that the outcome was 2 healthy twins and a young family with a shot in life now.

I'll throw in the "age of viability" argument. That somehow the decision should be based upon "when the fetus could survive outside the womb."

What difference does this make? How many 3 year olds do you know that are "viable" without the care of another human being?


There is confusion because the term 'fetal viability' is different from the vernacular use of 'viability.' Despite the difference, there is some differences in how 'fetal viability' is defined. It's mainly related to fetal lung development, which starts around week 20-22, and that informs the WHO's definition, while other definitions define it as post-26 weeks.
