oh yes women would,pac. women are control freaks just like men are. and the majority of anti-choice women are controlled by the men in their lives, including the men who run their church.
both of you please read this article, because you both need to know the actual facts, not the hype, and not the spin either, okay?

That's the problem I have with the argument; it amounts to a stereotype of pro-life women.

Read the article; thank you. Just an attempt to challenge Roe V. Wade while the courts might have a right lean.

yes, it is, but the problem is the amount of states where the same  kind of law is being blocked. i keep getting told that federal law trumps state law, when it comes to pot, well it better do the same with abortion then. NO ONE should have the right to take control of a woman's body by forcing her into childbearing. not men, not other women, not parents, boyfriends, husbands, etc. NO ONE.

[Pacman000]

That's the other problem I have with it; it assumes the fetus isn't a person.

I believe that conservative politicians who bring up and sign anti abortion laws should be forced to pay the state's legal expenses when a court strikes them down. Why should pewople who support abortion rights have to foot the bill for overturning these laws? Let the people who create them pay for it.

it isn't . even the bible talks about" the breath of life" to designate a CHILD.

if paccie left because of me and my strong opinions, let me know. i'll walk away. my friends here know how to find me, and i don't want to be the reason someone leaves.

When someone leaves it's their own decision. If I'm not mistaken think Pac did this once before, and came back. The solution to people leaving is not for other people to leave.

ARE YOU F*CKING KIDDING ME? Rape victims can't get help. WHAT THE F*CK ALABAMA?!?!

[316zombie]

thanks rev. you're right, i shouldn't guilt out. 
misfit, the governor is supposed to be reviewing the law today, we'll see what happeens. frankly, the state of alabama can't afford the court costs.

[Allhallowsday]

I do not believe any entity should dictate opinions regarding body sovereignty as law. 
I might agree with such opinion subjectively, but objectively never. 

[Svengoolie 3]

I think the right needs a good solid crushing in america, they're just out of control and need to be beaten, not reasoned with. This is intolerable.

Also they cannot penalize someone for an action they commit in another state.

This is becoming an increasing feature of modern life. People doing something legal in one country are being arrested for it in an entirely different one should they later visit it.

It's called "extradition" and it's really nothing new. The U.S.'s first extradition treaty was signed with Britain in 1794.

Not sure what Svenghoulie's referring to, though.

No wonder someone called the cops on me when I arrived at Frankfurt Airport in 2003
