Reply to comment by Tomoko_Lovecraft in Lawyer argues fetus of jailed pregnant woman is being illegally detained by He-is

>The whole point of the pro-life movement is that fetuses have rights.

No, it's not. It's about not killing babies. That's it.

A fetus is not a baby. It’s a fetus.

Then this lawsuit has no merit

Then they have to get rid of the anti-abortion laws. Can’t have it both ways.

Not really how it works, but ok.

That’s exactly how it works. A fetus is a person, or it is not. The law needs to be clear in this.

Except it's not.

>A fetus is a person, or it is not.

There are plenty of "people" who aren't granted rights under the US Constitution

>The law needs to be clear in this.

It is.

This is pathetic, it is beyond clear that you're doing nothing but deflecting.

>There are plenty of "people" who aren't granted rights under the US Constitution

What the fuck does this even mean?

What part of it don't you understand?

Mod_Accountability t1_j9yky4v wrote on February 25, 2023 at 2:52 PM

You can't kill a baby because it's a person, right?

So why can you imprison a baby, a person, for not committing a crime?

Umm, because it's not born yet, you moron.

If they really cared about the life and safety of the baby then they would also support social programs that ensure the parents have everything they need to keep them safe and healthy. As the saying goes, if you're pre-born, you're fine. If you're preschool, you're fucked.

If you're preschool, and within vicinity of a priest, you are truly and literally fucked.

What does this have to do with the article? I'm not about to get into an argument about abortion.

How do you not know you're already in an argument about abortion?

Pugs1985 t1_j9z2odn wrote on February 25, 2023 at 4:56 PM

Because the article has nothing to do with abortion.
