Who gives a frick if it’s deformed? It’s a living mother fricking human being. If those parents don’t want a “deformed” baby send them to my house, I’ll gladly care for them. For the love of everything Holy this is the sickest shite I’ve ever heard. Y’all are downright fricking sick

Who dictates what “severely deformed” is? Would there be a judge in the delivery room making a legal decision on if the baby fits the legal discription of “severely deformed”? Jesus H Christ man this is the most evil thing I’ve heard in a long time. I don’t care if it was voted down. A fricking Governor of one of our oldest states is pushing for this. I just can’t imagine our country has voted on leaders who think this way.

So I have a child who is born with no kidneys. That baby is born and technically could be somewhat kept alive.

My wife and I want only comfort care for the baby to pass. You think the hospital and government should over rule our beliefs and force to keep the baby alive by machines.

Go on


Let's be clear: that's not what is being discussed, and is not any different from what already happens now.

Dear God rescue us. We've known all along that these people think this way. I just never thought they'd not only admit it aloud to the general public but actually revel in their own inhumanity.

I don't feel like finding muhdragqueen's post but uh, yes the government decides that people should live all the time, over the whims of people who think otherwise aka murderers.

This is truly frightening like something you would only think might come about on a twisted Saw movie— but even Saw never went that low to involve infants, unless I am forgetting— the plots were always involving adults deciding if other adults would get mutilated, torn to pieces, cut in two etc— not even that sedistic show would have dared involve children much less babies just born.

Another thing that makes my blood boil about this is the same people pushing this legislation would be the same people who would throw a dog owner in jail for ten years in levenworth if they did something this heinous to their pregnant female dog.
The owner Would say “your honor, you don’t understand, as the owners of the dog we made a tough decision, yes the puppies were perfectly healthy and about to be born that day— but it had to be done it was better for everyone, and also don’t worry— the good news is we got to those puppies before they could be born that same morning. Yes we killed them very quickly before they came out.”

Just think about how that sounds for a minute and that’s basiclly what the state wants to decide about the legality of such a thing on HUMANS in Virginia.

What the mother and the family want is irrelevant and should be disregarded when it comes to an infant that is still alive.

Correct

That would be murder and medical malpractice by any definition

So, this is NOW what will occur because of this law?

Tell us what was happening before.
In most jurisdictions, something quite similar to what the governor described, though I am not familiar with the specifics of Virginia law.

Again, the bill in question did not even ADDRESS this scenario. The governor was addressing a completely different issue than 3rd trimester abortion.

Lots of States seem to be concerned that the anticipated new SCOTUS will change the law, and they are enacting prophylactic legislation to preserve the status quo in the face of new SCOTUS rulings.

Either you do not understand Roe, or you don't understand how it might be changed.

Keep in mind that this was NOT his bill,


Writers and defenders of bills like this or their ilk on the left Planned Parenthood...always take the extreme cases as their talking points...

When in reality these bills are usually broadly written.

This is the same "health of the mother" bullshite we've been hearing about for years.

"Late term abortions are only performed because of the health of the mother."

It's nonsense and we know the left just lies repeatedly when introducing legislation.

"Health of the mother" = teenage girl realizes she should've used a Condom.

Lay out for us a potential SCOTUS ruling for which these new laws will preserve the abortion status quo wants of these particular states through the implementation of this new legislation.

Yeah, America doesn't build cars anymore or make clothes.

America's big business is War and killing babies.

The right has the war industry and the left has the baby killing industry.

Lots of people do not understand Roe, because it is a stupid, convoluted and poorly-reasoned decision.

Which is WHY state legislators (most of whom are NOT Constitutional scholars) are rushing to enact legislation to preserve Roe rights ... as they understand them.

You'll notice they specified mother. If its born, why doesnt the father get a say? If its born this isn't an abortion/women's issue.

That sounds to me like the mother and the physician are guilty of conspiring to murder a human being.

A doctor should lose his license if that occurs.
