    Yep. Rape victims need to get some personal responsibility and make sound rational decisions. Overcome that so-called “trauma”.

    Well, you are misstating the premise of those who believe that it’s not a coincidence. The number of points has jack shit to do with the theory.

    I don’t buy into this yet, but it’s clear that many of the posters in this thread don’t really get the concept of 14/88. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fourteen_Words

    So you DON’T think that abortion is actually murdering an innocent baby then?

    Real talk... DeLuca’s Pizza is my favorite pie other than DiFara’s in Brooklyn. Owner is a transplant from NYC. His daily dough-making capacity’s limit, so call a day ahead to reserve. It’s crazy good. http://delucashotsprings.com/

    My only issue with this take is that currently, red states already bust their asses to pass abortion restrictions and barriers, up to what is permitted by current case law. I don’t see them keeping the issue alive to motivate the base. They already show that they do not follow that strategy.

    Do you honestly believe that any of what you posted even comes remotely close to addressing the questions you were responding to?

    Brow beating those who didn’t vote or voted for Stein is such a flawed, but typical DNC approach. It’s like the game plan is: “OK! We are going to just have the same voters come out for us again...BUT THIS TIME THEY WILL VOTE WAY HARDER!!!”

    If you consider that child porn, then I have bad news for you. From your linked article: ”The clip is making its way around Facebook, but anyone sharing it should be aware that it is a crime to circulate child porn, even if you are trying to get help for the child. Any further distribution revictimizes the child, and because of that, PJM will not share the video or photos from the movie that show the victims' faces. The only thing the public can do is report it to the authorities.”

    A significant number of them think that abortion = murder of babies.

    Why is this being lauded by the right as some badass Trump win, MAGA type of thing. I get being pleased because choosing him meant that the replacement will be from the right. I disagree, but it’s at least logical. However, I see some people here and elsewhere exclaiming “Trump is going to save us...I KNEW he was the guy to get it done!” Get what done? Kennedy retiring? No voire on Garland? Choosing replacements from a list of conservative justices? ANY GOP president would have done the same.

    You are turning into the GOP version of Hugo with the drive-boy’s and one liners.

    I’m assuming that his is sarcasm (the last sentence). Making the midterms about abortion is a fight D’a can’t/won’t win.

    Can’t they lose one of them anyway, with Pence breaking the 49-49 tie?
  15. scottsins
    I agree wit him, but damn he needs to STFU and stop playing the role of general Trump hating pundit/activist. He can do more damage focusing on his actual cases involving POTUS.

    I don’t think that requirement should be applicable to those centers. Of course, I say this, assuming that there is zero state funding or assistance (besides usual tax exempt status). Also, they should be regulated somewhat, so that they do not claim higher incidence of fatal breast cancer as a consequence of abortion, etc. That shit needs to stop.
  17. scottsins
    Umm...no. GOP would love to motivate their base for the midterms by putting the “lives of babies” and “Adam and Eve not Steve” issues front and center.
  18. scottsins
    No.

    I guess the 50th post of the thread would be a good place to actually discuss the analysis of the decision, specifically the free speech issue. To me, that's easily the most compelling rationale for the majority opinion in this case. ETA: Bolverk mentioned this with the political contributions remark. That's what I was referring to WRT the 1st Amendment.
  20. scottsins
    “Text of the order” is not dispositive. That said, the majority opinion doesn’t rely on the text justification you note, but effectively point out other factors validating the ban constitutionally. Also, the opinion mentions not ruling on any possible statutory challenges. So... now on remand will whatever the hell that is get litigated? I would assume so, and the ultimate result to be the same.

    Umm...does he think he wins the issue because “ultimately HD will not be paying tariffs for selling in Mexico”? No shit, fucking moron. Euros would pay the tariff on bikes sold there from the US, decreasing sales, etc. That’s HD’s problem with these trade actions. Straw man gonna straw man.

    So your retort to the commentary about ethical rules went from “but Obama!”...to...”HE IS WRONG.”, with no explanation? That’s some remarkable progress you’re making there.
  23. scottsins
    No. You said that this type of conduct leads directly to murders and violence.
  24. scottsins
    Exactly. What we need, obviously are spaces where we are safe. Let’s call them “safe spaces”.
  25. scottsins
    YEAH! “Knock the hell outta that guy! I’ll pay your legal fees if you do!” Seems familiar.
