Yes, it does stink. I've had to bite my tongue on many occasions (I'm sure some find that hard to believe but it's true) but I'm still here...
Why couldn't the courts handle it like they do other homicides?
Why isn't it considered homicide? It's the killing of another human being correct? And who said anything about death penalties? What does the average murderer get in IN? 15-20 yrs if that? What was the punishment before RvW in the states that outlawed it? I'm pretty sure it wasn't the death penalty if convicted.
Personhood... not sure how one defines that. As to life, from a biological standpoint, life is present at fertilization. Obviously, many people don't think of it as such.This is where things start getting slippery. What is a human, what is personhood, blah blah. This will go in circles. I believe in the early stages it simply has potential for life. It's not yet human, it has no personhood. Once it has the ability to feel pain and has a working heart, then I can start to consider it human. Just my beliefs.
And your view is the correct one by default I suppose.This thread is an excellent example of why white people have so much trouble with black people pushing an agenda as a "unified black voice".
There is no such thing as a unified voice and it is disturbing to hear any group act as if they speak for all, whether that be race, gender or belief system.
There is a segment of any forum that tends to push their view with extreme prejudice. Whether they are correct in their view is another matter.

If you can't stand up for yourself on an Internet forum, you are doomed to be a wiener for life.
I decided to use my ignore list so that I can continue my membership here.
Welcome to the /ignore group. Now you will learn of the struggle on whether to add /ignore for continuously quoting people who are already on your list...
