    Except the unborn human being, of course.[/quote]
    idiot...

    let me repeat this for you.

    in cases where a fetus must be aborted after 6 months, it's probably not going to survive (if it isn't already all but dead) anyway.

    so you can "kill" something that isn't going to live, or you can also harm (and maybe kill) the woman it's inside of by forcing her to carry it to term (and all the associated complications that'd cause)[/quote]

    A, B & C need to be clarified then, now don't they? Dummy.

    Why? I don't wish bad on anyone. You guys are the ones who want to live without accountability. I'm just pointing out the repercussions.

    only if you can't already wrap your head around water being wet.

    and maybe learn to use quote tags unless you're going for the less coveted title of "nuOldFella"

    sweet cheeks, we're posting on a message board spun off from another message board devoted to star trek.

    You're only reinforcing the perception that wet water confuses and angers you.

    The short answer is that the five most conservative justices can use whatever twist of logic or history they want. The Heritage Foundation has already argued that the actual meaning of the 14th Amendment would allow birthright citizenship to be stripped from the children of illegal immigrants because those illegal immigrants are "subject to a foreign power."

    https://www.heritage.org/the-consti...andate-universal-birthright-citizenship-heres

    From what I know the five justices would have to overturn precedent from 1898 that birth in the geographical U.S. means (generally) you are a citizen, and that there is at least some historical precedent for the notion that someone born physically within a geographic nation can generally claim its citizenship.

    Hopefully they’re also learning that elections have consequences.

    Because fetuses are infectious and kill.
    You're good at analogies.
    And smart, and charming.
    And the whole board loves you to pieces.

    You can repeat that all you want, but it still doesn’t make it true. Oh and don’t bother responding, you’re going on ignore now.

    I don’t understand why this is a difficult concept for you. Unless, like Brad Pitt’s character in 12 Monkeys, you don’t believe in germs and viruses and other microscopic organisms. And, btw, that character was crazy.

    Yeah, that would be me who reacted to your first post, and then me saying people missed the impact of that one.

    How dare I think something that you posted didn't get enough of a look so provided it in a different context. LOL.

    Oh, and from an earlier take. Why won't there be a constitutional amendment? Because the Founders had no idea that megacities would form and people would swell away from farms. Even as late as 1900, 90% of Americans lived on farms. Now it's 2%.

    It's theoretically possible for 14.6 million Americans to block a Constitutional Amendment from being ratified that 316.4 million Americans support.

    That's the combined population of the 13 least populated states.

    NYC has more population than 38 states. LA, 22 states, Chicago, 16 states. Even DC, a pretty small city, is more populous than 2 states.
