That a lot of people who maybe did not like abortion, tolerated it.
When some pro-abortionist demanded 9-month abortions it pushed a lot of people away from supporting it.

And there is no evidence that Meth can cause birth defects?Gardawg said:And you left out this part ...cadman said:You left out the part where the miscarriage was caused because she was a meth head. If you do drugs that kill the baby, I can see where the court might convict you. It was no "accident" that she lost the baby.Gardawg said:dave44 said:Ridiculous.
On a humid morning in early October, Brittney Poolaw sat in an Oklahoma courtroom waiting on a verdict. Instead of the jail uniform she’d donned over the past 18 months, she wore a yellow and white blouse. After less than three hours of deliberation, the jury returned with their decision: Poolaw was guilty of first-degree manslaughter. She was sentenced to four years behind bars.
But Poolaw, a 20-year-old and a member of the Wichita Tribe, had not driven recklessly or shot a gun. She’d had a miscarriage.
Poolaw will not be the last woman sent to prison for accidentally losing a pregnancy. Indeed, if the leaked Supreme Court decision overturning Roe vs. Wade is in fact its final opinion on the matter, cases like Poolaw’s will likely become more common.

prosecutors were never able to prove that the drug had ended the pregnancy. In fact, the medical examiner testified at Poolaw’s trial that he had noticed another compelling possible cause: congenital abnormalities in the developing fetus.
Come on, Gardawg, a meth head doing drugs has a miscarriage and you really think the drug had nothing to do with it? Get real.

How convenient of "justice" Thomas to avoid the obvious.
His marriage would be highly illegal in the 19th century.
In fact, he would have been hung, ... or worse.
How many "special needs" infants has he adopted?

I agree, the dog caught the car it's been chasing for so long, and is about to get aquatinted with the under carriage.
Millennials, and Gen Z will make sure of that.
This is the last political gasp of white, male , boomers.

Re: The cops just stood there and did nothing... absolutely nothing to stop the killing...for 55 minutes
Since the qualified immunity subject came up I will say that it a two edged sword. It gets abused by cops, fireman, politicians and govt. workers as a scape goat for bad behavior. It has also helped those same people that actually needed it. I am torn on getting rid of it vs keeping it.
There is no Duty to Act for officers unless we have created a special relationship with an individual. I firmly believe that there is a moral obligation to the people that I come in contact with to protect them while I am dealing with them even though I do not "have to".
