Where is this legal?


Don't know, never said it was, I'm saying there are some Dims/Groomers and other pro death advocates that believe a woman should have the right to kill the child up to and including birth.

I do remember some governor, could have been the VA governor before Youngkin who was on tape saying it should be legal to abort a child up to and including birth, and there was some woman at a congressional hearing not long ago making the same argument.

Right...and I responded:

Your reply:

Maybe, but there will never be a restriction on contraceptives for people who are wanting them.....killing children at birth is next level insanity.


So two things that will never happen. I guess we're stuck at...who gives a shite.

agree with everything you said. But if someone is pregnant and has an abortion then that child was unwanted, however if a pregnant mother who intends to have that child is murdered then in their eyes that child was wanted thus it is murder and not an abortion. Wow I know but that's just the way they think.

Maybe not within whatever religious or moral belief system you subscribe to.

But within a secular legal regime yes, you can. And I know that because it’s the situation in a large number of jurisdictions.

You’re talking about a relatively recent revision to criminal law to enhance charging options and sentences. It really doesn’t convey personhoo.

Of in this case. You’re talking about two different things. The amended
Criminal code is limited to that specific circumstance.

Quick Google search of current Oregon abortion regulations. ......not that it changes anything other than proving your post is incorrect.

quote:

If you're in Oregon and need an abortion

Abortion is legal throughout pregnancy in Oregon – there is no ban or limit on abortion in Oregon based on how far along in pregnancy you are.

There is no law that specifically requires you to notify or get consent from a parent to get an abortion in Oregon. But Oregon law does require that anyone under the age of 15 get consent from a parent for any type of medical treatment in Oregon. That means that if you’re under 15, you’ll need to get consent from a parent to get an abortion in Oregon. If you're 16 or 17 you don't need parental consent to get an abortion in Oregon.

Use our abortion provider search to find a provider. If you’re having trouble getting an appointment or need other help related to getting an abortion, call the NAF (National Abortion Federation) Hotline at 1-800-772-9100.


I guess Oregon allows the termination of life up tp the point of birth.....they're probably lying, false advertising.

Ok. The people of whatever state your hypo takes place in, via their elected representatives, made it so that abortion isn’t murder. That is why it’s not murder. Murder is what the law of whatever jurisdiction says it is. It really is that simple.



So your standard is all laws are the final arbiter of morality?


I have a meme for you:



There were plenty of laws allowing slavery, did that make it morally ok?

I’m curious to know why the people who have replaced religion with science seem to reject science on this issue.

They make up arbitrary definitions of when life begins on the whims of politicians and what is convenient. But there is no scientific reason for any of their standards. If there were, there would be an agreed upon time when a person becomes a person to match these made up standards.

Of course, we all know the answer is a person becomes a person at conception, it’s a scientific fact. But in this case the science is inconvenient so we just throw it out.

It’s only murder when the mother hasn’t consented to have her baby killed.

Abortion is murder.

The mom having the abortion is a murderer.

The doctor is a murderer.

They should all be arrested and tried as such.

Always amusing to watch someone flail on this one.

Thanks for making sure we didn't miss out on it here.

The way the law seems to read is a child could be killed legally at 9 months while in the process of being birthed, in other words, the child is viable and full term.....but semantics. The child could be subject to lawful termination simply because of location.....30 minutes later and it's considered illegal? Seems pretty insane.

I don't think they do in prochoice states.

Generally those laws are pushed in place by prolife groups.

I agree with the laws, but the contradiction you're seeing is just both sides getting whatever legal wins they can.
