Happy Birthday Dead Baby!

Joe/Whip, I'm not going to do the "how many angels can dance on the head of a needle game." It's Friday, and I'm about an hour away from wandering off and playing Persona 4 Golden for the night. You know damn well that you're trying to spin a series of absurdities. Not playing. nocoolnamejim

"CHARLESTON - For the past 11 days, anti-abortion demonstrators have gathered at the Charleston Women's Medical Center in West Ashley as part of the annual "40 Days for Life" movement against abortion, each of them signing a "statement of peace" before participating.

Police say the protest met a threat Saturday morning when an out-of-state abortion doctor flashed a gun at them.

Police arrested Gary Boyle, 62, a Blountville, Tenn., physician, on charges of pointing a firearm.

Boyle drove into the parking lot of the clinic on Ashley River Road near Fuseler Road at around 8:30 a.m. When three protesters, including a 17-year-old boy, approached him, Boyle brandished a black handgun loaded with 15 rounds, according to a police report.

Boyle then stepped out of his SUV and walked into the clinic without further incident, the report says. One of the three protesters, 50-year-old John Karafa, called 911."

I wonder if this incident caused him to lose his medical license?

Although it was unfortunate about what happened to that woman who lost her baby, I have no sympathy for people who have abortions. None (unless life is in dander of course).

And no, I wouldn't involve kids.

What pro-lifers doing repugnant shít to get their misguided, unscientific views across? Stop the fúcking presses.

No, but seriously, fúck those guys and anyone who supports that low-level scummy protest. But in a way I'm kind of glad they keep doing it. News stories like these just galvanize the opposition.

Then please show me the science. The burden of proof lies with these individuals so by all means I'm ready and eager to see some good ole scientific proof.

Scientists would probably disagree on whats alive.
But fair enough.

[QUOTE="jim_shorts"] Biologically alive. I'm not being philosophical. By the biological definition of living, a fetus would fit that description.jim_shorts

And what would that be just out of curiosity?

[QUOTE="jim_shorts"] There's a very standardized definition of what's living. An organism must fit certain criteria, which a fetus does.jim_shorts

Fair enough, i thought there were other stipulations too for it to be an actual life. Wouldn't it share most of its traits with that of a parasite though? Cliche argument i know but i can't argue with it.

Right, but it was a nothingness, there was nothing there, did i have rights, was i truly alive? I don't know, but the way i see it, me as a foetus woudn't havee had any input so terminating me wouldn't have meant anything, it's like kiling bacteria. I had no rights, to be honest abortion seems the better move in hindsight but i digress.

Yes but their consciousness is still active isn't it.

Would a non sentient life form that has no awareness of its existence be awarded the same rights as an actively alive human?
