But I really want a baby

Postby West Failure » Thu Jul 30, 2009 1:47 am

Another case of a woman killed and the foetus she was carrying is cut out and kept by someone who presumably wanted a baby really, really badly.
http://news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/world/americas/8175813.stm

A baby who was cut from her mother's womb has been found alive two days after the woman's body was discovered, US police have said.


I find this incomprehensible, is adoption so difficult in the US that unless you are Madonna and can bribe an entire country you can't find a child to adopt?

Presumably, if you're mad enough to cut a baby from someone else's stomach, you're not really fit for adopting a baby - I'd guess she has a history of mental instability.

Nope. Americans routinely adopt Chinese babies for their awesome sense of duty and math skeelz. Adoption of chinese babies is going to replace baseball as the national sport one day.

Babies are made in the stomach, that's why you get pregnant from blowjobs, it's true, my teacher told me,

Although thinking about it I suppose it is possible that they intended to murder the victim but then had an 'I am anti killing fetuses' moment and decided to save the foetus as an after thought.

Change but two things in this scenario:

1. a doctor doing the 'procedure' instead of a lunatic psycho woman
2. the baby being killed instead of the mother

and you get:

Liberals and lefties cheering 'a womans right to kill'.

Strange that those very same people are so upset now.

I'd say "Alien" would be a more apt comparison.

You're not seriously comparing an abortion to someone smashing a mother's head in, slicing open their abdomen and stealing their baby?

Seriously, this is something I'd expect from New Mitanni.

Ramming a pair of scissors in a babys head and sucking the brains out (ie partial birth abortion) is somehow more 'humane'? I'm sorry I just don't see how that works.

what you fail to realize is that zod is, infact worse. The post above (for example) is a perfect display of an attempt to call up an emmotional response to stand in for a real argument.

Let's count the differences, shall we:

1. Legality: abortions are legal, no doubt much to your chagrin, while murder and abduction is not.

2. Fetuses are not technically people; the scientific term is potential person.

3. Fetuses are aborted through a medical procedure; they don't just get their face smashed in or their abdomen ripped open.

Way to exploit this horrible incident to further your own political view. Very classy.

Slavery was once legal, maybe we should have accepted it as 'settled law' instead of having a war between the states.

Wanna know what happens to 'fetuses'? Check this out:

WARNING, DO NOT CLICK IF YOU ARE NOT AT LEAST 18 AND DO NOT HAVE A STRONG STOMACH

MODEDITED.

And then come back to me and tell me this isn't murder. No amount of laws is going to not make this murder. And I absolutely despise religion so you can't call me on that either.

Shame on me for 'exploiting' this horrible incident to expose the hypocrisy in those who gleefully support institutionalized murder whenever the 'mother' wants it. And you know something, most of the 'pro-choisers' are opposed to the death penalty for criminals. Way to have your priorities screwed up there.

Well you've managedf to stick to the "reason? who needs it? think of the CHILDREN!" style of arguing. I applaud your tenacity. There are some issues with what you posted though. . . .
1)Yes slavery was once legal. Its somewhat ironic that you are trying to compare having an abortion to slavery when NOT giving a woman the option to have an abortion is essentially condeming her to 9 months of slavery. (More importantly there are REASONS that slavery was repelled which essentially ammount to "people are people regardless of colour". On the same note Fetuses are demonstrably not people.

2)That picture isn't actually of a fetus. Thats a stillborne (you can tell by development, various markers of a sever genetic disorder and a couple of other factors). i suggest you look at what you post.

3)I dunno why i bother but, murder is, by definition, the illegal killing of people. Abortions fail that on two levels, 1 fetuses are not people and 2 the killings are not illegal.

I don't know what I'm thinking....hmmm

The lady makes a strong case...she did want that baby. Right of the conquerer! ....whoops...wrong thread?....

I'm kidding.

Stances:

1. This wasn't abortion. Abortion kills babies...this killed the mother.
2. If anything, this is partially opposite of abortion. Hence the dead mother and alive baby. Rather than the reverse.
3. If she wanted a baby...but was living in a...what was it? A home? Some sort of program? Yeah...no baby for you. You can't support yourself...how are you supposed to support a baby too?
4. No offense to ladies...(I honestly mean it...this time)...but this is exactly the sort of thing that scares me about women. One minute they're fine and then BAM! "That's my baby!" (sliced jugular) "How do you like that *****?!"
5. I'm gonna hide before #4 has women forming a lynch mob.
