Are you pro abortion? Pro chioce? Pro life? Anti abortion?
I noticed that since the trial is over his mother hasn't been seen wearing her nasal canula.
27 days. I give him 27 days in prison before someone "Dahlmers" him.
they should just put Scott in a padded , empty room .give him a revolver with one bullet and shut and lock the door and
never open it again until it is apparent he has gone through
with his own demise. no food , no water, no toilet , and leave the light on.
"Well, you can't officially have a name unless you have a birth certificate. And you can't have a birth certificate if you haven't been born. So, I guess technically, "fetus" is the proper term in this case."
Personally, I prefer the term "baby."

Are you pro abortion? Pro choice? Pro life? Anti abortion?

I doubt you'll get a response on this one.
Although it's fairly obvious where BC is coming from. I've heard his rhetoric many times before. Like in college, when they told us we shouldn't say "Pro Life" but rather "Anti Choice." They also insisted we refer not to the baby as a baby, but as a "fetus".
Not that it really matters in the context of my argument on this board, but out of those choices I would consider myself anti-abortion. I understand making exceptions in cases of rape, incest or danger to the life of the mother or child. I'm not sayin an abortion SHOULD take place in those cases, but I believe there should probably be an option in those cases. Can't thing of any other scenarios where it should be legal.
I do not call myself "pro-life" though because true pro-life philosophy is opposed to the death penalty. I am 100% in favor of that and wish we would use it more often.
I am truly anti-abortion. And I do choose my words carefully. I will admit, though, that I am going to backtrack on something I said. I did not think the term "baby" was appropriate because it didn't truly apply until it was outside of the womb. However, I looked up the definition of "baby" and one of the listings said "an unborn child; fetus". So I will no longer have any problems with calling a fetus a baby.
Part of the reason I am a conservative is because I like to get my facts straight. That is the one thing that typically sets us apart from the liberals and Democrats. That's why it bothers me so much when conservatives don't use the proper terms.
You are in favor of murdering innocent unborn children.
It explains your nit picking of words to describe human beings.
And Please don't tell me you are a Christian.
Did I say I was in favor of abortions in those cases? No. I would hope that the mother would still choose to keep the child (or at least have it and give it up for adoption). But I also understand if she chose not to. I think that it should be legal in those cases and hope that people would educate the people in those cases (which are few and far between) on the religious aspects of abortion and encourage them not to have the procedure done.
I am a Christian, by the way. And, I don't need your approval, only God's.

the gangs of california conduct executions almost daily.
Sorry, my bad, you only said you were in favor of allowing the murder of innocent babies.
encourage them not to have the procedure done.
Pro abortion people use terms like "procedure" to describe this kind of murder all the time. But since you are anti abortion (kinda like sometimes under certain circumstances maybe etc etc) I guess that particular word game doesn't apply.
Puke.
I am a Christian, by the way.
Neato! That means you KNOW you will be at a meeting with Jesus someday and you will have an excellent opportunity to explain to him all about the "exception" rule to murder God's children which God chose before they were born because you thought somehow God made a mistake in creating them. Oh, to be a fly on the wall at that conversation.
I still believe it is wrong for abortion to happen in those cases. But I don't know that the government should be the one to state that. I do not like government regulations. If pro-life advocates had invested HALF of the money and time into educating people on the dangers (both physical and spiritual) of abortion that they have in lobbying for federal laws, this probably wouldn't be much of an issue anyway.Pro abortion people use terms like "procedure" to describe this kind of murder all the time.
That's because it IS a medical procedure. In today's society, like it or not, abortion is a legal medical procedure. Work to get that changed if you want, but it nevertheless IS a medical procedure. Kind of like a lobotomy . . . you might want to look into that one yourself.

I will have plenty of my own sins to answer for. Performing or having an abortion will not be one of them.
Jacki Peterson comes off as a vitriolic, nasty woman. I tried to excuse it in the beginning because she was in denial about her dirtbag son, but since then I've read stories about how she thought Laci was not good enough for Scott, made disparaging remarks about Laci even after she disappeared, lied for Scott and said she gave him the $10 or$15K he was found with when arrested and tried to make up an alibi for him. She trashes her daughter, whom she gave up for adoption, for living in the real world and believing Scott guilty. Then she and her husband have the nerve to scream at Laci's poor parents in court.
The Petersons have no class at all, and you can see maybe where Scott went wrong. That's just how I perceive them based on their words and actions.
You have a better chance of living to a thousand than out "libertarianing" me.
The proper role of government in a free society is to defend the rights of the people, nothing more. The right to live is fundamental. If they can't defend even that right, they have no legitimate function whatsoever.
I have never lobbied for any federal law. Murder is a matter for the states.
pro-life advocates had invested HALF of the money and time into educating people on the dangers (both physical and spiritual) of abortion that they have in lobbying for federal laws, this probably wouldn't be much of an issue anyway.
That is delusional. People have always murdered for their own reasons, they are uneducatable.
I will have plenty of my own sins to answer for. Performing or having an abortion will not be one of them.
I never said you would answer for your sin of murder. I said you would have to explain to Jesus your position on the "exceptions". As most Christians know, if you do it in your heart, it's the same as if you did it.
How do you plan to explain to Jesus why you support the murder of his children? I'd be facinated to know what you think he will agree with on the "exceptions". Please enlighten me.
BTW, sucking out someone's brains ain't a "medical procedure" because the murderer is a guy the government says is a "doctor". Tell Jesus about that terminology after you enlighten him about the exceptions. Tell him, Oh no problem, it was a fetus and a medical procedure, so it doesn't count. See if he buys into that.
I think these questions are between you and the Lord, when your time comes to face Him.
We all will have things to answer for when we face our Lord.
