    Default Abortion Question.

    Row V Wade has been the law for nearly 50 years. Medical science has made tremendous advances in medicine in that time.

    Abortion becomes a moral and legal issue when a fetus reaches a certain stage, per the laws enacted by politicians.

    Instead of politicians deciding when a woman can or cannot have an abortion, how about letting the medical community decide at which point an abortion is manslaughter? Take the politics out of the formula. Let the decision be between a woman and her doctor based on AMA rulings.

    Doctors don’t make law. Legislators do.

    OK. Stop telling unvaccinated Americans what do with their own lives and bodies.

    Deal?

    When people use that worn out phrase I often wonder why they didn't tell their mother she should have aborted them. After all it's her body!

    No, it hasn't. A Supreme Court ruling is not legislation. A minor point, you may think, but a critical one.

    Roe vs Wade is a court decision that is cited as an example or analogy to resolve similar questions of law in later cases. It is not law.

    Have you noticed that they never apply "My body, my choice" to vaccine mandates?

    Viability can be as early as 20 weeks as per medical science.

    As I have stated multiple times, it changes nothing since most abortions are done within 10 weeks anyway.

    Deal. Instead, we'll just tell you lepers to stay home. You know, like you covidiots all said to us norms last year when governments mandated masks and social distancing to keep you fools alive.

    Rarely some premie fetuses have survived that early, at great emotional and financial cost, and with intense medical supportive care. Even so, when a woman miscarries at that stage of gestation, we don't call it a "stillbirth." It's a "miscarriage" or "missed abortion."

    The decision properly belongs between a woman and her physician. Males and child-less women have no right to input.

    What are the laws based on? Certainly not arbitrarily.

    What amazes me is people go bat shit crazy over abortion. As you know I'm against abortion being used as as a birth control measure. But I do understand a fetus does not become a person until a certain point in gestation. Who better to decide when a fetus becomes a person than a doctor?
