  1. I'm shocked that you'd minimize the opinion of someone who actually had a condition that would be life threatening and most likely would not have been exempted.....until she died of a coronary. Even more shocked that you'd place your expertise in this matter above her's. Do you really think the laws as that have been written aren't going to get more and more restrictive as the religious zealots keep hammering away on this? You can't see a scenario where we go as far as countries like El Salvador?
  2. As usual the devil is in the details. This lady explains that her previous heart conditions would put her at a very high risk of death if she were to carry a pregnancy fullterm. Yet, as the definition of risk to the mother becomes more nebulous and up for interpretation she would have had to carry the pregnancy fullterm under many current or predictably, future laws, which in doing so would have been "tantamount to suicide" in her words. When abortion providers are run out of a state and doctors can be charged with a crime for performing an abortion intended to save the mother's life, even if that doesn't yet meet a narrow definition defined by anti-abortion zealots, where will someone find a safe provider? https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.politico.com/news/magazine/2022/04/28/the-new-abortion-restriction-no-one-is-talking-about-00028171%3f_amp=true
  3. Lol... that's what you said about voter suppression laws, that no one was having their voting rights denied. Then Texas happened.
  4. I hope nobody here has loved one's with these conditions in the near future. I also hope nobody's loved ones get raped and inseminated and has to carry the rapist's spawn fullterm. Of course, most here would have the means to travel to another state to do what you all know you would do, virtue signaling not withstanding. Otherwise a coat hanger and vacuum might work.
  5. Does this guy have the discipline and self awareness to do one video or speaking engagement, just one, when he's not high as a kite? Any ideas on his resting heart rate? I'll take over 140.
  6. Sounds like Putin's plan to fertilize the plains of Ukraine will be commencing shortly
  7. Maybe you should read all the posts then.
  8. I do too. One of my best friends is in a gay marriage with two kids. You couldn't find a kinder person than her in the world if you tried and now she's terrified of losing it all. I can't wrap my head around so-called libertarians wanting to impose their moralistic view on other people who've done them no harm. "Live and let live" bulls#!t
  9. Welcome to the authoritarian theocracy that's been warned about here many times. It's arrived and is going to get worse.
  10. Ironic isn't it? Considering all the crying about the leak damaging the credibility of the Court and yet we have three justices on the verge of overturning a ruling that they claimed to be settled law. Credibility? What's that old saying about you're only as good as your word?
  11. Let's see if either remember what they said during their confirmation hearings. Any bets?
  12. Nope, no authoritarian thoughts going on in there.
  13. "Genius", "savvy", "wonderful"
  14. Video of Bayraktar TB2 drones sinking two Russian assault boats.
  15. Well you can't say that addled brained orange wannabe fascist isn't good for some laughs. This didn't take long.
  16. Hopefully "lightly injured" turns out like the "lightly damaged" Moskva. Either way the Russians are hemorrhaging officers. Good for them.
  17. Nope, no signs of playing from the authoritarians' playbook there...lol. Demonize scientists, the media, civil servants, political opponents, now teachers.....who is next, public utility workers?
  18. Are you tossing aside what was in the article as disinformation? I'm not understanding your point. I read it as stating that the military is not happy with the direction the war has taken especially after Putin backed out of his attempt to take Kyiv and that as the Ukrainians continue to stymie the Russians, some in the military there are promoting an escalation up to the use of nuclear weapons. I posted the article as food for thought. Who really knows what's going on inside the Kremlin but the authors claim to have sources. Whether or not that's valid, I guess we'll find out.
