Why is there a pregnant 12 year old girl where you're standing brilyn?

[–] postmateDumbass@lemmy.world 2 points 17 hours ago

You must not understand National Security.

they care more about the abortion because if she doesn't carry it to term, they'll have one less child to rape.

10-1 he's had to drive some 12 year old across state lines to get his baby out of her.

In all seriousness, have you ever met a woman who "just" had an abortion? Without any internal struggle? Who "just" made an appointment, walked in, walked out? Not scared of how close it was to an life altering event for the woman? With not difficult feelings to the possible child? "Just" another day in her life?

Anyone?

I just don't believe that those women exist in large numbers but it feels like they think that is what every abortion is.

Ps: his example feels weirdly specific to me.

[–] Amberskin@europe.pub 29 points 1 day ago

I have. It was a friend who already had two kids, didn’t want (or couldn’t raise) more. She arranged the procedure as soon as she found she was pregnant again. Went to the appointment, got the embryo removed and that was all.

And it was ok, it was her decision (supported by her partner by the way) and nobody should have a shit to say about that.

Remember when Republicans made up the idea of "partial birth abortion" and (rather successfully) used to to convince people that there were women out there who purposely waited until they were in fucking labor to arbitrarily decide to abort?

Pisses me off how successful that was.

The propaganda machine has always been producing.

Even if that's the case, it's none of their fucking business?

Is there any kind of murder other than a vicious murder?

[–] Jayve@lemmy.world 10 points 1 day ago (3 children)

There's murder-kabobs, murder creole, murder gumbo. Pan fried, deep fried, stir-fried. There's pineapple murder, lemon murder, coconut murder, pepper murder, murder soup, murder stew, murder salad, murder and potatoes, murder burger, murder sandwich. That... that's about it"

So according to the right wing a 12 y/o should be raped and should carry & raise a baby for the rest of her life just because “AbOrTiOn Is MuRdEr”.

Anti-abortion is a position exclusively for unreasonable or irrational people.

The 12-year-old would die in childbirth as god intended. These people don't actually care about the baby they just care about having power over other people.

Translation: My 12 year old baby mamma is trying to leave me, but that baby is mine!

You know what far-right religious nuts DO NOT like to know?

God has aborted more babies than every doctor ever born. He delights in the blood, as I understand it. Can't get hard without it. And how is Mary going to catch a stray savior load if God can't get his cross up?

Why does he even pick the case of a 12-year hold pregnant person ? Isn't that like, the case were almost everyone can agree that abortion makes even more sense than usual ? Have i missed that somehow conservatives consider it to be worse than when adult people abort ?

[–] pleaseletmein@lemmy.zip 1 points 17 hours ago

At this point, I think a decent chunk of them are pedophiles with breeding fetishes who get off on the idea of impregnating children.

The classic discussion

"We're fighting for the sanctity of life"

"while grilling a piece of animal on the grill"

"Human life"

"Yet people die because of lack of healthcare or malnutrition"

"Children"

"And stil child mortality is rising"

"Unborn life"

"Yet we polute the environment and with that the unborn child"

"It has a heartbeat, okay!"

"So does a Leftist"

Republicans when someone gets cancer: "Well should've saved 250.000 dollars just in case. Go die peasant, public healthcare is communism!!!!!"

If a 12-year-old girl got raped and became pregnant, I'd rather live in a country in which she can contact medical services on her own, receive medical care without cost, and then the medical services contact the authorities, which can then investigate how a child became pregnant. Starting with the parents. Such things are quite often caused by close relatives.

Willing to bet brllyrrlly-whatever-the-fuck is also opposed to any kind of birth control or sex education that helps prevent 12 year olds getting pregnant.
