Murder: the "unlawful" premeditated killing of one human being by another.
I quoted the unlawful only because that is the topic of argument. Even using the crusty old "it's a zygote" argument, which I already demonstrated as the red herring it is, abortion is indeed the premeditated killing of one human being by another.
You believe it's ok to murder little black humans, I believe it's not ok to murder humans at all. I'm not sure why this makes you blow a gasket, I don't want to kill people, it's really weird you are so hateful because I don't want to murder humans?

Best of luck figuring out the reason why people aren't currently being charged for murder for having abortions either under federal law, or any state law. Hint: It's the root of your confusion here.
You can characterize the root of your confusion as a "crusty old argument" all you like -- all it means is that religious zealots have failed to come up with a counterargument able to convince society, or the courts.Originally Posted by Neveragain
You've selectively limited the scope of the morality of abortion to black humans, out of an effort to emotionally (and disingenuously) frame the argument as an issue of race, which it isn't, rather than of universal human rights, which it is. Sorry you're butthurt that society doesn't agree with your fringe, religiously-based, science-free vision of the world, but them's the breaks. That's your role as a right-wing religious kook: to be laughed at, ignored, and moved past. Better luck coming up with a coherent argument next time.Originally Posted by Neveragain

I agree with you. (Shocker, I know). Abortion is a personal question, and decided by the person who's pregnant. Progressives have already met conservatives half-way with efforts to reduce abortion without trampling on people's rights. But to the ideologically "pure," nothing short of prohibition, and chucking women in prison will suffice. Which not only doesn't work in reducing abortion, it's morally repugnant.

So mad that you haven't been able to establish that abortions "murder babies," or that you didn't have a retort to your selectively applied limitation of the scope of morality of abortion to blacks as a cheap emotional tactic. And, you guessed it, Republicans are the ones who oppose effective measures to reduce abortions - i.e., comprehensive sex education, on purely religious grounds, which have no place in public policy.
It's "your," not "you're," and beeteedubs, you voted for Trump, who actually had a policy of genocide as per the Geneva Convention, of which the US is a signatory. Better luck next time laying out a coherent argument, though.Originally Posted by Neveragain
