Canada was 4th ever to do.it in 2005 because were progressive n overall just great ppl

Yeah, I wish it was more than a 7 years since, it’s sad that it took as long as it did, and I hope it stays legal.

Well at least you got there. Sorry if that came out judgy, certainly not my intention

 

[Comrade Khan]

I’m gonna reply even tho you said don’t bother as it’s my right to reply. It’s good to see you are against what I’m about to mention, but it’s not a “sky is falling” as you said. They are places with laws, laws that now will become a reality that have zero exceptions for abortion. Then you mention the morning after pill, those could easily be targeted and taken away as well. So it’s something that very much is a problem, and needs to be fought against.

Contraception is a thing these ppl plan to restric, too. You are bang on

Oh and another thing, Congress can act at any time but how much you want to bet they don't and make a mid-term election issue out of it instead to try and gain votes?

Keep supporting those crooks.

Just going to drop this here about the abortion debate as well.

This is 2022 not 1973. Contraceptives have came a long way since then. There are numerous options widely available as well as what I can tell the morning after pill (which is effective up to 3 days after sex) will still be available since that is not an abortive.

And before you try to use the argument not everyone has access, if they don't have access to that then they won't have access to an abortion which was much more expensive and involved.

To make things perfectly clear, I do not support an outright abortion ban and I do not agree with state laws that do that. I also don't support late term abortions. That is why this needs to be defined and regulated by Congress like it should have from the beginning. Both sides need a say and a compromise needs to be made.

I will remind you that in places like France abortions "on demand" are limited to 14 weeks from conception. So in that regard, Mississippi is more progressive than France when it comes to abortion at the moment where the law is 15 weeks from conception there.

But the 'Sky is falling!' attitudes are over the top and not genuine. Don't let the media, social media, and celebs work you into a frenzy.

Not going to reply, so don't bother. Just wanted to get that out there.

.....Clarence Thomas included Griswold vs. Connecticut in his list of cases to overturn next, they don't want birth control legal either my guy. Remember, you were so excited bc he included the gay marriage case too

[Chris]

I don't need a source we've discussed it ad nauseum bc that's why gay marriage was even the topic all day yesterday so suggesting contraceptives is killing me

 

[Comrade Khan]

His wife also rushed tge capital january 6th. He outright said hes there "to make liberals miserable". This id a judge whos supposed to interpret law, not settle scores. Hes a traitor and should be impeached and jailed. But of course you trumpanzies just gargle thus shit n think hes a hero. Traitors.

 

[Chris]

It's like telling a republican not to be mad they can't have an AK bc you can still buy an AR-15 when those are very clearly under attack by one side as well, whether I agree or not

 

[Chris]

But anyway, most southern states are most definitely planning on banning Plan B pills, it will be fairly easy to argue they are technically abortion IMO. They'll come for the rest but it will have to take reversing Griswold v Connecticut and who knows if they can succeed there. But if they do, then just about every southern state will ban them as well bc that's what they want to do with states rights

 

[Comrade Khan]

3rd world country. We shoukd kick you out of G7 until yall get your heads out of your asses

I would not support that.

It works a different way from my brief look into it. It does not abort an existing fetus. They might be able to ban it but trying to pin it as technically abortion would be a longshot.
