Well, because abortion is murder. That's a pretty good reason.
So, is CHOOSING to LET children DIE, 'murder'. Instead of CHOOSING to keep them ALIVE, 'you' CHOOSE to LET them DIE. Which is EXACTLY what 'you' do do "immanuel can".

Personally? I don't. But I don't begrudge anyone else having one, since I know there are WAAAAAY worse guns out there. But i don't think SCOTUS will rule for more gun control for two reasons: one, while the constitution says nothing about abortion, it does about gun ownership; but two, gun control doesn't work. I assume they're smart enough to know that.
As far as I am AWARE the 'constitution' of that LITTLE country does NOT absolutely ANY thing about 'gun ownership' AT ALL.

BUT, maybe 'you' or someone else here might be ABLE TO guide us to WHERE it does. That is; if it does SAY that, AT ALL.

Immanuel Can wrote: Fri Jul 01, 2022 5:34 am Still, in my area, most crimes are committed with handguns...which are totally restricted weapons, that require a special permit, a full and comprehensive police check, and cannot even be moved between locations except under special circumstances.

If yes, then WHAT is wrong with being a law-abiding citizen?

But if no, then WHY NOT?

'Tougher sentencing' has NEVER worked, and will NEVER work.

In fact, 'tougher sentencing' makes WORSE societies. As can be CLEARLY SEEN and PROVED True, in the days when this was being written, by that out-of-country known as the "united states of america"
Immanuel Can wrote: Fri Jul 01, 2022 5:34 am It's also going to mean cleaning up the crime areas, where these guns are a status symbol and a tool of the criminal underclass.

How I KNOW this is because 'you' would NOT associate "yourself" WITH the so-called "underclass", and this is BECAUSE 'you', literally, associated "your" 'self' ONLY with the "upperclass".

And, please feel FREE to Correct 'me' if I am Wrong in ANY way here "immanuel can".

In the days when this is being written, do you REALLY BELIEVE that 'arranged marriages' is the so-called 'norm' throughout ALL of "asia"?

For example, if 'you' are married, was 'you' and 'your partner's' marriage arranged?

And, either way, how many "other" marriages, in say the current period, do you know of, were arranged compared to were NOT arranged?
godelian wrote: Fri Jul 01, 2022 6:52 am If the family has found a good husband for their daughter, she should be grateful to her family for taking care of her interests. The ingratitude of women is often astonishing:
“I was shown hell. I saw that most of its inhabitants were ungrateful women… The Prophet was asked: ‘Were they ungrateful to Allāh?’ He replied: ‘They were ungrateful to their husbands and for the favors and the good done to them. If you show benevolence to one of them and then she sees something in you not to her liking, she will say: ‘I have never seen any good in you.’”
It is not a surprise that these women are ungrateful to their husbands. Before that, they were already ungrateful to their own families!
To me, this just speaks of what is known as, 'black or white thinking'. That is; instead of LOOKING AT and SPEAKING thee ACTUAL Truth of things, adults, some of the time or generally, will USE obviously extreme and thus ABSURD terms like; "you NEVER do ANY good", sometimes just on the bases of SEEING some thing once, ALONE.

Now, that it was a 'male' MAKING OUT that 'females' do this, is just a SIGN of time. Which was most likely BECAUSE it was 'men' who used to usually write the books, back in those times, and it was 'men' who thought "themselves" SUPERIOR to 'females'. Which, REALLY, NOT much HAD CHANGED, back in the days when this was being written.

As can be CLEARLY SEEN here within the writings, within this thread, and by what this thread is ACTUALLY about. Which is just more or less 'males' STILL thinking and/or BELIEVING that they had the 'right' to TELL 'females' what they could or could NOT do with 'their' bodies, and thinking or BELIEVING that 'they' (the males" STILL had the 'right' to ENFORCE their VIEWS and BELIEFS onto "others", and to ENFORCE the 'rules' that they ACTUALLY made up.

Here is ANOTHER of what is sometimes referred to and called 'black or white thinking'.

It could also be SAID and ARGUED that 'complaining males' are NOT 'particularly smart' AT ALL, either.

And, what can be CLEARLY SEEN in this thread, and forum, is a LOT of COMPLAINING from BOTH the 'females' and the 'males', EQUALLY.

Well, that's a false dichotomy, of course; those are not the only two ways things can go. But I agree that both of those alternatives are considerably less than ideal.
So, yes, I believe in the increasingly popular mantra: "Islam is correct about women".
I have to say, I totally disagree.

I suggest that Islam has a hostile and abusive view of women, judging by the Chapter of Women in the Koran...which I have read, and have right here on hand, as a matter of fact.
Can you INFORM us of WHY some woman SEE the EXACT OPPOSITE of what you do, in, supposedly, the EXACT SAME words?
Immanuel Can wrote: Fri Jul 01, 2022 1:18 pm

And what else ALL "christian" AND "islamic" 'men' have in COMMON is that they are ALL ABUSIVE to children.

You're just projecting your own tendency for lying and nonsense, again.

Crucial elements of the situation:
Premeditation. Killing. Innocents.

Sounds like first degree murder, maybe even a hate crime*.

The question is, how can a state legalize murder, even if murder is the will of the people?
The SAME WAY they legalize ALL of the other, IMMORAL, and Wrong, things in Life.

The 'state' has members of adult human beings, usually male in gender', voting for and AGREEING UPON what WILL BECOME legal, and what WILL NOT.

We know that a baby in utero can make its own decisions. When she kicks, it's not because the mother told her to. When she gets hiccups, the mother doesn't. Her heart beats about twice as fast as the mother's does. When a needle is inserted into the amniotic sac to kill the child, she reacts away from it. And when she is pulled apart, she screams.
You are citing reflexes, not thoughtful decisions.
VERY True.

And, WHY 'decisions' relate to 'behaviors', which a person HAS CONTROL over, while 'actions' and maybe more correctly 'reactions' are NOT some thing that a 'person' has control over.

WHICH then leads to UNDERSTANDING and KNOWING what is Truly Right and Wrong, in Life.

WHICH THEN, leads to further UNDERSTANDING and KNOWING about HOW to create and live IN a Truly peaceful and harmonious 'world'.

But, first things first. These will ALL come, later on.

I'm afraid it's clear you're not understanding what's happened at all. Your "facts" are just wrong, and wrong in ways you could confirm yourself, if you went and looked.

The R v. W. decision does not make abortions criminal. It doesn't even deny that every state in the union can have unrestricted abortions. What this decision says, is that when the court formerly ruled on R v. W., back in 1973, it was overreaching and outside the constitution entirely. This decisin says, the court screwed up, and it's time to set things in right order again.

It's not actually a decision about abortion per se, at all.

Consequently, it's a decision purely about JURISDICTION. Nothing more. Nothing else.

All it says is that the Federal Government has no jurisdiction to dictate to states what their choice about abortion must be. It says that that question has to be settled at the state level.

And that's all it says.

So we have to understand this situation correctly. Abortion has not been "overturned," as Gary's headline would induce us to imagine. And it certainly has not been "criminalized," as you suggest. All it is, is a decision that states must decide. Period. No more, no less.

Let's keep the discussion sane.
Beg pardon. I should have said that the decision allows individual States to declare or to have declared abortions to be unlawful.

I haven’t read the decision, but I believe it is aimed specifically at abortions with a more generalized application to the roles of SCOTUS, the federal government and the state governments.
Your belief is incorrect. You should read the decision, I suggest. It's a purely judicial matter.

Now, the panic from the Left is interesting.
NOT using ACTUAL Truthful words, but USING False 'emotive' words instead, EXACTLY like in this sentence, was VERY COMMON in the days when this was being written, and had ACTUALLY BECOME VERY COMMONLY USED in some, if not just about ALL 'news media' outlets.

Also, considering absolutely NONE of these adult human beings could DEFINE, ACCURATELY, what words like "Left" MEANT EXACTLY, it was HUMOROUS WATCHING them USE it and OBSERVING just how MANY TIMES it would get USED.
Immanuel Can wrote: Fri Jul 01, 2022 1:18 pm It signals that they just can't stand the idea of non-centralized power in these issues.
One is left' to wonder if ALL 'left-handed' human beings REALLY could NOT stand some, PERCEIVED, idea of some so-called "non-centralized power" in these issues? That is; if that is what "Left" ACTUALLY MEANS or REFERS TO, EXACTLY.

But, if what was MEANT was "Left thinking", then one is left wondering what could that ACTUALLY MEAN or REFER TO, EXACTLY?
Immanuel Can wrote: Fri Jul 01, 2022 1:18 pm They know darn well that states like Cali and New York will keep aborting children right up to post-birth.
Well, if they are ALLOWED to, then they are NOT committing ANY crime, AT ALL, correct?

Immanuel Can wrote: Fri Jul 01, 2022 1:18 pm So the actual threat of non-existence of abortions is not what they're mad about; they're mad that not everybody is going to be forced to play things their way.

Do you like or love that people have the choice to live in states where people are MUCH MORE FREER, where taxes are used DIFFERENTLY, and are NOT FORCED to follow and abide by laws that PREVENT 'females' from having 'rights' and 'freedoms'?

Good point, but I was referencing just anyone who breathes air with or without assistance.

I am NOT sure if you can SEE but there are DIFFERENT WORDS and TERMS, and the DIFFERENT words and terms MEAN, or REFER TO, DIFFERENT things.

The REASON WHY DIFFERENT words and terms EXIST and MEAN, or REFER TO, DIFFERENT things IS BECAUSE there would be absolute and irreparable CONFUSION among 'you', adult human beings.

Although there was a GREAT DEAL of CONFUSION, 'set in', ALREADY in 'you', adult human beings, in the days when this was being written, a LOT of this is just caused by the fact that one word can have MANY DIFFERENT meanings, or definitions. But, if it was ALSO the case that MANY or even ANY different meanings, or definitions, had the EXACT SAME word referencing them, then the CONFUSION that 'you' were ALL in would NOT have been ABLE TO be REPAIRED and SETTLED, ONCE, and FOR ALL, like it BECOMES.

I seriously cannot believe how dumb you and your sidekicks are. I'm astounded beyond belief. :?

Murder requires a murderer. This has got nothing to do with a lump of fucking meat.
I'm asking you to prove that a woman who chooses to have an abortion is classed as a murderer. Until it can be proved that a woman is a murderer through the act of abortion. Then the accused woman is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.
Firstly, what has a 'court of law' got to do with what 'it' is that 'you' WANT 'proof', in this forum?

Now, the 'proof' NEEDED that 'a woman' who chooses to have an abortion is 'classed' as a "murderer", soledly depends on what the words 'woman', 'chooses', 'abortion', and 'murder' mean or refer to, EXACTLY.

For example, IF the word 'woman' means or refers to an adult female human being, the word 'chooses' means or refers to NOT being 'forced' to make 'a decision', the word 'abortion' meaning or referring to getting rid of the 'thing' growing inside a females womb, and 'murderer' means or refers to a 'women' who 'chooses' to have an 'abortion' is classed as a "murderer", then THERE IS the PROOF.

But, please feel FREE in NOT accepting this in ANY way AT ALL.

And what is 'guilt' or 'innocence' based upon, EXACTLY, if NOT one words, and their meanings?

But doin' that back & forth is not what I'm here, in this thread, for.

As I say: We're no closer to an answer than we were when I first asked that question back in '19.

That is: we're no closer today than we were in '19 to agreein' on what it is a woman carries during pregnancy, and we're no closer than we were in '19 to agreein' on the moral implications of abortion.
The REASON 'you' are NO closer to 'agreeing upon' what a pregnant female carries and what are the 'moral implications' of abortion is BECAUSE 'you' ALL have your OWN BELIEFS and ASSUMPTIONS, which 'you' are 'trying to' fight and/or argue FOR, instead.

No, I'm here, and in the companion thread, with a question...

If reproductive control really is the issue on the table (and not, for example, sacrifices to Moloch, or the denigration of personhood, or just plain old eugenics) then why aren't folks talkin' about tubal ligation and vasectomy?

Both are safe, effective, single event procedures. Both are reversible. Neither is particularly controversial today. Most importantly: if reproductive control is really the issue, both allow women and men to exercise it without, for some, killin' a baby or, for others, havin' a pesky parasite removed.

No one seems much interested.

This makes me think, mebbe, just mebbe, reproductive control really isn't the issue.
Besides 'you', "henry quirk", has ANY one even hinted that the 'abortion issue' is about some so-called "reproductive control' issue?

To me, they are VERY DIFFERENT issues, and discussions.

The Pro-abortionists have no chance against the unwavering belief that there is a God who will condemn someone to eternal hell fire.

The human mind is the only species on earth who is aware of concepts...a wrathful God can only be a human mental concept that no power on earth could change. No power on earth could ever separate the mind from it's believed conceptual content.

Carlin is right, he speaks the cold hard truth... However, some truths are hard to swallow, and will always fall on deaf ears, because it's seen as a threat to the ego... the religious mindset would never believe Carlin, instead would condemn him as a sinner, when all he is doing is pointing out the sheer hypocrisy that is every brainwashed religious control freak who are totally deaf dumb and blind to anything but their own beliefs.

The truth is, it does not want to he heard, except for those who hear it loud and clear.

So what is the truth? ..in truth, there isn't any, and that's why religion was artificially created, it is an imagined invention.



In reality, the mind knows nothing of it's existence, the mind is the ultimate pretender. Those who are anti-abortion are the same one's who fully support war. Truth is, no one can do anything to stop the ways of humanity, except to threaten them with empty meaningless words, and the madness continues, on and on and on.

The only true and real salvation is to have never been born.

Fortunately, Intelligent people know this.

From belief to clarity.

That's the court's point. Roe was judicial overreach...a case of the Federal government exceeding its constitutional power, and autocratically imposing a universal situation on all states, regardless of the wishes of the state's people. They're saying it was bad legislation and needed to be reversed.

Given that abortion was never a constitutional issue at all, they're right: the Federal government has no right to reach into people's lives or states' decisions in the way they had. For good or ill, the right level of government, constitutionally, to rule on abortion is the state level, not the Feds.

For those who hold that abortion is murder, this is surely just a restoring of minimal freedom and decency. They are freed from having to support with their taxes a thing they assert to be immoral and homicidal. They're having their right to conscience restored. That's all.

So all the clucking and fluffing about Roe is coming from the authoritarian Left. They can't stand anybody not to knuckle under to them. But this is purely a matter of jurisdictional authority, as the court made no ruling on the nature of abortion itself.
