  1. Nobody ever stormed Stormont, did they?

  2. There was no murder. It's her body that bears the burden, and it's her decision.

  3.  @accelement3499  No, it's her decision. She's the host organism. The effects of pregnancy and childbearing fall entirely on her. Also, I hope that you're using some kind of speech-to-text program, because if not, you seem barely literate. Of course, if English isn't your first language, I apologize!

  4. True, but you're also not supposed to call your friend (instead of 911) and flee the scene.

  5.  @parkerteo8708  I don't mean a mass shooter, just an active shooter. People were yelling to others that he had shot someone, and presumably everyone had heard the flurry of gunfire, hence the impression that they got. That's the testimony/accounts that witnesses gave

  6. Why?

  7.  @TrentsPolitical  Being quiescent rule-followers is what got us to this point.

  8.  @TrentsPolitical  That's disingenuous.

  9. Embryos/fetuses aren't children yet.

  10.  @x-popone6817  They are staffed by liars. That's most of what they do.

  11.  @electricblue2920  "Should we start aborting"... That's not pro-choice. You don't seem to grasp what choice is.

  12. Embryos aren't babies.

  13. What irony? It's unjust that she had to go to all this trouble.

  14.  @dylanhaskell2012  Embryos have neither guilt nor innocence. There's no harm in not being born.

  15.  @kirkpatrick7475  No such thing.
    1
  16.  @kirkpatrick7475  That's a fallacy, because (among other things) then you have to ask what created the creator. Not having an answer is no reason to make up something silly, like a sky-daddy.

  17.  @kirkpatrick7475  The gestation period is nine months, as you know. At no point in that process is a child involved. As to when we can say that personhood arrives, I'm not completely sure, but I can say that it's after all (or virtually all) abortions happen.

  18.  @johndoeiii9767  ?

  19.  @kirkpatrick7475  Human embryos and human fetuses are human, obviously. They just aren't children yet. They don't have personhood.

  20.  @kirkpatrick7475  You're making some assumptions here, and there are problems with them. I don't know what created energy, but that's no reason to assume that it was a deity, much less yours: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmological_argument

  21.  @kirkpatrick7475  First, show me the paper (or material in general) from which you are getting this argument.

  22.  @alpharenz1329  Having an abortion is one way to be responsible.

  23.  @lissy1678  Those are a form of cartoon, but that's neither here nor there.

  24. That's TX for you.

  25. It wasn't. It was fine.

  26. There have only been a very small number of sentences so far; in fact I think that there's only been one. The charges definitely vary, and a lot of the attackers are facing hard time. A YT channel called Plants and Politics has been keeping track of all of that.

  27. You are completely correct.
    1
  28. Not this again... Several of the attackers have been arrested on gun charges, not just the guy with the rifles and bombs in his truck. Nobody burned the place, but they did plenty of damage all the same. A Capitol Police Officer shot Babbitt. John Sullivan is not an "Antifa guy," he's a weird loose cannon; leftist activists were warning one another about him for months. Why do I have to tell you this?

  29.  @gregorylumban-gaol3889  Precisely.

  30.  @soulofcinder7392  I myself have protested out on that lawn. (I'm really tired of just yelling at buildings.) I'm not claiming that they wouldn't have the right to do that.

  31. True, but it's not a child yet.
    1
  32. There was no pain for the embryo/fetus. Religion is bollocks.

  33. You're silly.
    1
  34. Why not?

  35. WaPo did something similar, but it was shorter, and thus this video is much more thorough.

  36.  @derekbaker2134  Sure thing.

  37.  @Greenie-43x  Women have abortions of their own free will, and there's nothing wrong with that. If you really think that abortion is homicide, then it makes no sense to not prosecute the women involved, particularly if they self-induce.

  38.  @excellentbloodman1147  Embryos and fetuses aren't babies.

  39. Huh?

  40. She did take responsibility.
    1
  41. And?

  42. Embryos aren't babies.

  43. The only tragedy is that she had to go to such lengths to exercise her rights.

  44.  @Upinsmoke1976  Both.
    1
  45.  @leeverkisto22  True, but there's no murder involved.
    1
  46.  @Anna-vl8qc  True, but embryos and fetuses aren't persons.
    1
  47.  @leeverkisto22  Human? Sure. I didn't say otherwise.
    1
  48.  @leeverkisto22  It's a discussion about what makes killing wrong. The factor is personhood- sentience, the will to live, biological autonomy, and all else that's taken away when a person is killed. In a rudimentary way, babies have that. Embryos and fetuses don't. There's no harm in not being born.

  49. Exactly, but: *you're.

  50. The vast majority of women feel relief, not regret.
