Abortion -The poll is not based upon Religious belief - It is based ethics

[JLM]

I'm not the one saying women are useless. Women are saying they are useless.

You may get an argument from the ones who think they are multi purpose!

I don't differentiate between human and other life forms. I don't see humans as being any more important than any other. We kill billions of animal and plant life without thought. I don't hold abortion any different than killing a cow or a chicken. I have no emotional attachment to any of it. All life is sacred but it is not up to me to decide who is right or wrong in any of this. That responsibility lies with the one making the decision and performing the action.

So you are AOK with a wolf cull then .
The deer are moving into cities and towns in your neck of the woods you don't mind if those herds are thinned a bit .
And how about trophy hunting of grizzlie bear do you have an opinion on that ?

 

[JLM]

If they could think for themselves they'd be able to raise a child without batting an eyelash.

That I have to disagree with, We've raise three and am in the process of raising two more and sometimes you are batting more than eyelashes. Just between peer pressure, the internet and their own inherent stubbornness, your work is cut out for you. For a woman alone it would be formidable.

I have an opinion of all trophy hunting, it's more or less despicable. A man with the use of A.T.V.s and high powered rifles with scopes is able to kill an animal- big f**kin' deal. Now having said that if if the animal is for some practical use like food, clothing or the living room rug, that's a little different, go ahead and hang the horns on the wall, but they don't make you a better man!

You kill an animal for a "rug" only and leave the meat to rot, then that is no different than just hanging the antlers "on the wall". Unless we are talking about a carnivore cull(wolves, coyotes, etc.), but Bear, Deer, Elk, Moose, etc, you damn well better be eating that meat.

 

[petros]

Yum.

I thought I mentioned "food".

All part of life.

But sometimes an insurmountable part. -

 

[petros]

Insurmountable? There is an abundance of community resources to easily thump any challenge being a parent throws at you.

here's what you said....with my emphasis.

Now having said that if if the animal is for some practical use like food, clothing or the living room rug, that's a little different,

The "or" makes it exclusive, not inclusive. What you wrote means a Living room rug alone is good enough reason to kill an animal.

But sometimes an insurmountable part. -

Nothing is "insurmountable".

You're a pain in the A$$, Gerry. I never said if it was to be used for the living room rug it couldn't be used for food too. I'm the last person that agrees with meat being left to rot.

Then write what you mean.

 

[Goober]

The title of this thread should be "This poll is not based on ethics - it is based on political mischief".
.
Once again, late-term abortions in Canada are not performed by licenced doctors on whim but because the foetus is not viable, the life of the mother is imperilled, or both.
,

Then you would support a law prohibiting late term abortions aside from the reasons you have mentioned. As they do not occur you would clearly support such a restriction.
Would that be correct or am I missing something, some other point?

 

[Tecumsehsbones]

You really do make a good point. "Pro-choice" is just another phrase meaning "fence sitting". -

How do you figure? I'm pro-choice, by which I mean "it's up to woman that's pregnant, and none of your, my, or anybody else's damn business."

Are you suggesting that anybody who's not into getting their politics into a woman's pants favours mandatory abotion?

 

[Spade]

Those opposed to abortion, per se, use late-term abortions to agrue ad absurdum to silence those who point out nuance in the debate. Are you arguing that Trudeau or the NDP favour gratuitous late-term abortions?

Goober?

I love the way folks invoke the "old days" in the abortion debate. If anybody DARED to inquire into whether James Madison's daughter may or may not be expecting, married or not, he'd meet them at the door with a horse-pistol in hand.

JT has already made it perfectly clear that he has no problem with a woman getting an abortion whenever and for what ever reason.

Yeah, I'm going to check into taking some night classes on the art of written English!

So maybe the best thing is just to leave it at that and possibly remember it on election day. I know what my opinion of Junior is apart from any ideas on abortion! -
