Ken Peters is indirectly responsible for why this clinic went up in flames. We’ve seen far too often how weak-minded simpletons fall for the anti-abortion propaganda. Free speech shouldn’t apply if that speech leads to human suffering or death.

These are all great ideas but they sound way too much like work. Screaming at pregnant women through a bullhorn as they try to get prenatal care is definitely the way to go.

Just don’t have sex....see how easy that is??

They could literally be wasting their energy opening housing co-ops for single mothers running daycare centers with apprenticeships from the local high schools and junior colleges because nothing gets you birth control like seeing how hard taking care of a baby is but also it would teach more people child care and…

The year is also ending without Betty White who won’t see 2022. This year SUCKS.

If these bozos spent half as much time supporting mothers in need and laws for easier adoption they could cut the abortion rate in half as well. Not to mention shelters for abused women and harsh penalties for domestic abuse.

I sure am glad Ken Peters weighed in with his Christian thoughts. We’d like to have no abortion in America too, Ken. It starts with lots of free birth control and a social safety net for families. Ken? Ken? Where’d you go?

“Lookin’ at you over there, Chad.  And BTW - been a minute since we’ve seen you on Sundays.”

Almost as long as Robert Pattinson’s Batman movie.

Yes, it feels like Jared Leto has been afflicting us for a lot longer than that.

Exactly this - of all the options given, the most supported path in this country is abortion because carrying to term without national healthcare coverage is prohibitive for so many people even when it’s gone perfectly.

There’s no shortage of adoptable children. But, yeah, healthy infants, particularly healthy white infants? Not nearly as many as people who want to adopt them. 

Is there a shortage of adoptable children?? Mad at them, not you. And I suspect you’ll make a sad but relevant point - not enough infants.

Or labor as in going into labor and giving birth against her will 

Yup. My best friend was adopted. One night while out at a bar, he ran into a guy that looked like him. They started talking and learned they had a lot of similarities, like both played college football and some other stuff. Turns out it was his biological brother, and he also had a biological sister. For whatever…

Is this really it, though? Because from the social media posts of my more conservative/religious relatives and (largely former) friends, it seems like one thing that they’re really excited about with the end of Roe v. Wade is the idea that there will suddenly be lots and lots of adoptable, healthy infants. So even…

Of course it causes more complications than solutions it might provide. That’s a feature not a bug. Encourage the woman to stay pregnant; encourage the woman to have & keep the kid; encourage the woman to stay with the man; encourage marriage between. You know wholesome, American-style, family values.

How much does it cost to give birth in Texas? If you’re insured, do you have to pay a deductable? If you’re uninsured, do you have to pay a large sum of money? Could someone have trouble even being admitted to a hospital if they have no insurance? I’m starting to suspect only wealthy women can get behind this casual…

I’m not an expert on this, but there isn’t enough discussion on the trauma that comes along with being adopted. My friend was adopted by an amazing family as an infant and struggled. I’ve read other stories as well. Even if the foolish were to ignore the risks of pregnancy and the trauma of labor, adoption isn’t…

Re: Justice Barret’s suggestion that women can just carry a pregnancy to term and then, like, drop the baby off at the fire department and skip merrily away: In that situation, what rights does the other parent have and doesn’t that kind of complicate this whole thing?
