Just claiming they are lies is not going to convince anyone!

Elaborate on you claims that I and pro life lie. I cant be bothered to jump around the net looking at bloody poo.

I have read you link - she like you just claims their lies gives no proof or back up no statstics nothing. Poor, very poor. I will dig up some pro choice lies and give you some back up too!

That was an amazing article! It is incredible what these people will do. What kind of "proof" or "statistics" do you want -- that was real life. Very cute how they say she was deceiving them!

Samie is just trying to get us to forget that she was pro-choice, she had an abortion! Then she felt guilty (maybe she had it for the wrong reasons, maybe she never fully considered all of the options etc befroe doing it, whatever) & now she wants to make us do what she chose not to do.

In other words she wants us not to have & not to support others having the right to choose even though she herself did have & used that right.

Yes I think it was a legitimate argument, I was trying to convey the idea that laws would be better if they were passed on statistical data and not on possibilities and fear.

True - to a point

a lot - majority of our laws come from religious teaching - so what should replace laws such as homicide laws and theft laws and violence laws.

Why should they be replaced? Laws are continuously being amended as society and culture changes.

You have to base laws at least partly on "superstition and fear" as you put it. Statistics are not correct.

Ok on what superstions do we base laws - arbitary superstions or more widely accepted superstitions.

Do we base our laws on the superstion of the few i.E the is no god or
do we base our laws on the superstion of the many i.E their is a god.

Once you make argument for making laws on fear and superstion then obviously you must take into account the democracatic structure and how that would relate to the religious aspect of supersticious laws and the abortion debate.

On this alone the abortion laws are in fact anti democratic and anti religious and therefore anti social.

You cant expect to argue both ways - but even if you do there is logical arguements and valid reasons why the laws are wrong

O.K, I am not getting into all of this.
All I am saying is in abortion you cannot use only statistics to base laws and arguments and whatever else. Statistics are not correct.

So we don’t use statistical data for laws – so what do we use?

There is no evidence to suggest women have “coat hanger abortions”
so why defend a law on that fear!

Even planned parenthood said 98% of all illegal abortions world wide before roe v wade were done by qualified physicans with suitable medical equipment used in proper medical facilities.

There are a lot more deaths from abortion(not inc baby deaths) now than pre roe v wade

so why do people use that pathetic argument to keep legalised abortion.

Once again you only believe the things you want to believe. You are the one with the pathetic arguments.

There is plenty of evidence that when abortion is illegal, women may try to abort on themselves. They may throw themselves down the stairs to try to induce a miscarriage, or get themselves punched in the stomach, or take up remedies (poisons) that are supposed to induce an abortion, but are more likely to kill them. Or they may go to doctors or other practitioners, who take their money and leave them to suffer the consequences, and they are too frightened to seek medical attention. They bleed to death. If they are wealthy enough, they can go to where it is legal. Every year, hundreds of girls comes from ireland to the uk for abortions.

Statistics? Like, how would you find statistics on coathanger abortions?
Let's do a survey, pick a random sample of people. "have you ever had a coathanger abortion, sir? Madame?" well, true, in a sample of 1000 people you might not find a single person who did.

Evidence? You mean like people saying they did it or knew someone who did? Or does using something other than a coathanger invalidate the concept?

But, heck, you probably reckon if someone dies during an abortion they deserve it anyway, right?

Samie can you not read or what? I said we cannot base laws "only" on statistical data. My goodness, pay attention.
And there is evidence (please learn how to spell) of coat hanger abortions. I personally know someone who performed one. Not that she is proud of it, but then who would be? People are not going to go around admitting that they did.
"fear" only exists where necessary.

If (dubious) you know someone then maybe she could give a written testimony to pro choice, pro-life, medical and governmental organisations since none of these have any legitimate testimony of even one yes even 1 coat hanger abortion. Of course she would have to under go some tests to see if she was lying or not

You are being really, really weird now. Does it need to be a specific type of coathanger? Would a wardrobe do?
