The word is overused. How are they fascists? This is pushing for state rights, the opposite of fascism.

Mike is freaking out over nothing. This is what happened when you push a large centralized government to force your beliefs on others, there gets push back. All that is being pushed are state rights. Many states will still keep the status quo.

@harpoonmcfierce9697 Nowhere in the Constitution is abortion mentioned. Just like murder is not mentioned. So just like in both cases, it defaults to what is in the Constitution, the 10th amendment. You do know states have a lot of control of you lives, even more so than the federal government?

@bustermasten9576 FYI, the person you are having a discussion with enjoys kids dying in traffic accidents.

@223Drone hey bud, how do you feel about kids dying in traffic accidents? 1000s a day. A way to prevent that would be to ban kids from going near roads. Do you support that?

Not really. Read the draft. Deeply rooted in history means that rights do not appear out of nowhere. With abortion the Roe v Wade ruling just created a right out of nowhere.

@architects-of-eden7 the Constitution. Easy answer.

Ever debated me? I am game. On abortion, there is nothing in the Constitution to make it a federal issue, thus it goes to the states. With interracial marriage you have the 14th amendment. So while marriage is a state issue, if a state recognizes marriage they have to do it for all races. So you want to debate? I am all game.

@steelfallageek the "adopt children" argument is flawed. I can counter back to you saying 'ok, kill the kids with parents who don't want them and just call it abortion".

@CorwinFound to start, who says I feel abortion to be illegal? Abortion is something I try not to get too much involved in due to how subjective it is. But if you hold a gun to my head and have me give my opinion I say these things 1. It should be rare, safe and legal 2. Those who get an abortion should be left alone and not ridiculed 3. Those who get an abortion should not be out celebrating it but should keep it to themselves. Not to be rude, but maybe a reason why people do not want to debate you is because you make immediate assumptions on people. Next, the 4th amendment was never cited in Roe v Wade. You citing McFall v Shrimp does not apply here because in those cases it is the government taking something from you to give to someone else essentially at random picking favorites. That is different than a pregnancy involving that one woman and that one (or maybe two or more) babies. It isn't going up to someone, taking their kidney and giving it to someone else. So the 4th amendment does not apply here. The woman did not have to have sex. They placed themselves in that situation. It would be similar to if someone offers someone to adopt a child, neglects them and the child dies. The person adopting the child placed themselves in that situation. Also, there is the argument abortion is murder where murder is illegal.

@CorwinFound also, there are arguments in why abortion should be illegal. Many feel it is murder. There are objective and subjective sides to issues. The idea of state rights is to handle the subjective sides. Many states, like MS, feel abortion is murder. MS has more women voting than men in recent election, so it appears women feel that way in MS. Why? It could be for several reasons, but mainly because of culture. I don't live in MS, never been there, so I can't say. And neither can others who do not live there. It is no different than a state like CA feeling abortion should be legal. Why do they feel that way? I could not say, I do not live there. There are subjective viewpoints.

@CorwinFound in the Constitution there is no right to an abortion, that is what matters. Doesn't matter what a court case said 50 years ago, as written in the draft Plessy v Ferguson was an incorrect ruling later overturned. So was Roe v Wade. Roe v Wade was an incorrect ruling as there is nothing in abortion that covers abortions, so by default, as written in the Constitution via the 10th amendment, to lands to the states. "abortion WILL be illegal in a lot of states. So you are de facto arguing that abortion should be illegal since you are willing to have the right to ban abortions ceded to various states." That is 100% false. I am not saying abortion should be illegal. However, I stand by my principles of following the Constitution and how it sets up a limited federal government and state rights. If a start outright bans abortion I will disagree, but if I do not live in that state, if I do not pay taxes there, vote there, etc. then I can't do anything about it nor should I have a strong, if any, opinion. As is states have a lot of control of many domestic issues and many states do things I do not agree with. I did not live in CA but I lived near it. There are many things it did I disagreed with, but since I did not vote there, pay taxes, live there, etc. my opinion was not strong and what little I have is not important as I have no way of changing what goes on there. I stick to my principles. So wile I feel abortion should be rare, safe and legal, I feel more strongly about the idea of a limited federal government and more state rights. "So you are de facto arguing that abortion should be illegal" To say it again, and be clear, I feel it is more important to have a limited federal government and more state rights. Compare it to free speech. If someone says something racist I will disagree with them. But I will defend their right to say it without punishment from the government. Why? I feel way more strongly about free speech than opposing someone saying something racist. I rather have people say racist things as opposed to having government have power to silence them. Thus, I rather have state rights and have states decide if abortion should be illegal as opposed to a centralized government making decisions. Again, not to be rude, but maybe people do not argue with you as you make assumptions about people. You are saying that be default I support abortion being illegal. That is 100% not true. What I support are state rights over the abortion issue.

@CorwinFound " Unless you have another framework where it is legal federally and can enact that immediately. Saying that Roe v Wade was decided for the correct conclusion but for the wrong reasons is pointlessly argumentative. I asked you why you felt that way and your response is that it should be legal but not based on how it was legal. " I explained to you how abortion is not in the Constitution, thus it becomes a state issue. I rather have states be allowed to ban abortion as opposed to having a centralized government have that much power. Flip it around. You give the federal government that much power to make decisions on abortion. Now say congress passes a law making it illegal nationwide and the SC says it is allowed. Then what? Well, the problem arose by giving the federal government that power to begin with. I want to eliminate that.

@CorwinFound "And your argument that being forced to donate a kidney isn't apt because "the woman chose to be pregnant" is crap" How is it crap? She took the risk having sex and thus got pregnant. Compare it to drinking and driving. You do it you take the risk. You kill someone you are charged with murder. You comparing it to government telling someone to give up their kidney and give it to someone else is completely different. They did not place themselves in that position to give up a kidney. "There are trigger laws in place the flat out ban abortion. Under any circumstances including rape, incest, the health of the fetus and the health of the mother" Where? "Oh, and death. Women die giving birth. And that number will go up as women who aren't healthy enough or physically mature enough to birth healthily are forced to do so." I don't see that happening. The rate of abortion has been dropping for years. Less people are having abortions which is why it is essentially a non issue with people. In fact, a big reason why Trump won the primaries against republicans was that he did not run on social issues like abortion that many people do not care about.

@CorwinFound "So yes, I believe that a right to privacy and bodily autonomy should be protected by the federal government." What level of privacy? If I commit a crime can cops investigate it? Based on your standard that is no as I have a right to privacy. And for bodily autonomy, the issue people have is what is inside the woman. Again, many feel abortion is murder for many reasons. And many are legit. " I disagree on other government rulings that limit a person's right to their own person including euthanasia, trans rights to medically transition, the decriminalization of most recreational drugs, and decriminalization of sex work. " And there are fair arguments for and against those points. But with abortion you should understand many feel it is murder as they are concerned about the baby and not the woman. "If you want to have a debate about abortion because you actually care about the outcome, I'm down. If you want to argue legalese while actual rights are being stripped from women across the country, I'm out. You don't care enough to be listened to by people who actually do care deeply." Reading that it is clear why many do not want to debate you. I care about the outcome, and the outcomes vary. Many local communities are willing to make abortion illegal as they, as a community, will help raise the kid. Some communities, like Los Angeles, a large city were local communities are not strongly connected, will feel differently. I know in the community I lived in there were many single mothers and they were helped out a lot. Thus, while abortion was legal, they refused to get it as they knew they would receive local help. Again, this is why it is a state issue, it varies by different areas.

@CorwinFound It also seems to be that you only care if the ends justify the means. You are willing to override the Constitution as long as the ends justify the means no matter what precedent we set. Also, you seem to feel that by making abortion illegal it will lead to bad results when that is not always the case. it varies depending on the local community. Maybe this is why people do not want to debate you. You are so quick to judge and jump to conclusions and if you cannot have it your way you run away.

@CorwinFound so I can keep writing and you won't read? You said at the very beginning this "They don't want to debate abortion and they don't want to debate the loss of civil rights." And that is what I am here to do. But now it seems like you don't want to have the debate. " I specifically brought up a 10 year old in Brazil who received an abortion." And that is in Brazil, not the US where that is the issue we are discussing. "There are trigger laws already in place that make no exceptions including rape, incest, health of the fetus, health of the mother." Ok, such as? Can you please list them. I did not ignore your point, I asked you to list them. "You won't address that as a reality then I'm not going any further" Because, from what I see, it is not reality. You need to give me sources that it is. " A basic Google search brought up Texas (current law, no exceptions past 6 weeks) and Kentucky (trigger law, blanket ban, no exceptions.)" Ok, and here is the issue. There are 6 weeks to do it. Not a flat out ban like you are describing. That is the counter argument. You are not even looking at the counter argument. Not saying I agree, I am saying they exist. " I didn't bother to go any further because even one state with such a law is more than enough." Well, do you live in TX? Do you vote there? Do you pay taxes there? If the answer is now then you really have no skin in the game.

@CorwinFound as I said, it isn't that people do not want to debate you. It is more of you shut down the conversation. I am here willing to debate and you are saying you are refusing to read what I write. You are shutting down the debate right away.

@CorwinFound You "They don't want to debate " So I start to engage in a debate So you now "You can keep writing; I won't be reading"

@Cassandra Tafoya where is the gish galloping. I am here to have a discussion and the man who claimed no one wants to debate admitted he won't be reading my comments. That says it all.

@charlidog2 you can't compare this to kidneys. You are born with a kidney. You have to have sex to get pregnant as a woman. You have to do an actual action and make effort to get pregnant. "States can't be trusted on big issues" Actually, the big issues should be left by the states and that brings the most trust. People will know that government is actually serving them the more local government is. On slavery, the constitution was amended to ban that. There is a process for that. "Even education needs national standards." Why? You do know there is no official education standard at the federal level that states have to follow? But here is another advantage of state rights. On education, if you have one entity setting standards you run the risk of indoctrination. Say republicans were to control the federal government and they set their education standards federally all states have to follow. I bet you will hate it. With states doing it. one state has their standard and another has their. So if one state is doing indoctrination and another is not, that state that is not will have open minded people and that will flow throughout the nation.

@charlidog2 "The Constitution doesn't need to spell out the right of bodily autonomy. That's a given in any free society" There are always restrictions placed on us. Our society is not that free. Also, honest question, did you support the vaccine mandate?
