No fault divorces & adultery are not in the same league as abortion.

A fetus is either a human being or it isn’t. I believe it is a human being.

It used to be that a woman had an abortion because society wouldn’t accept a single mother. Now, it’s because she can’t be bothered. Single motherhood is definitely accepted in this day and age.

I think a lot of young women have abortions that wouldn’t if we had an open and honest discussion on what abortion is. They don’t realize that they may regret the act for the rest of their lives.

I was referring to the fallout that would happen. Maybe there shouldn’t be any, but you can’t control that.

If you talk someone into killing someone else, aren’t they still guilty of murder?

If the "woman" in question is 13 and is forced by her scummy 22 year old boyfriend to have an abortion, should she be punished?

That type of scenario, sadly, is not uncommon.

Overton Window
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overton_window

Its what libs have used to make e immorality accepted in america , many right wingers in Europe like the current president of Poland who has just denied to take any muslim refuges used the overton window to reduce immorality that has wrecked havoc on Poland .

We can roll that back and trump is the chance is do that

Cruz is a double talking politician who gives vague answers,

However, in the case of the ‘punishment for illegal abortion’, He was specifically asked if there should be punishment if abortion were illegal. He said ‘yes’. If it’s illegal, then there should be some kind of punishment. If it becomes illegal in your town to mow your lawn between midnight and 5am, should there be some kind of punishment for violating that?

This has been a gotcha tactic of the left for a long time. They want to make the candidate say they would actually punish a woman for doing something illegal. well yeah ... if it is illegal then there must be punishment, right?

I may not like Trump but I do salute him for his courage in standing against this sort of political correctness and emotional thinking.

Having Hillary or berinie running things will lead to more abortions. It is the sensibilities of society that has to be changed.

And that starts with good leadership willing to be politically incorrect and expose the ugly truth and have the courage to take on the evil.

Isn't this just what Donald Trump did? Think about it.

Duh. If something is illegal and you do it, you get punished. How big of a deal is that? This could even help him in the primaries because most Republicans are pro-life.

I believe that according to current law, if you are coerced into murder, you’re still going to be tried for murder.

The situations are not even close to analogous.

I’m a Trump supporter and there is nothing wrong with what he said, and his “clarification” that it is a state rights issue is not a flip flop.

Wanna bet he does a full summersault within 48 hours? Come on..... He is about to be run over by a NOW and PP Crap storm. Donnie has no base political foundation. He WILL flip. I don't disagree with what he said either, it's his lack of ability to know when he is being set up and he continues to run his mouth. Then his Campaign has to release a "Clarification of policy" to bail him out.

Trump just made a second clarification.

‘If abortion were illegal, then the doctor should be punished’ - from the radio.

As of this minute , Trump is against punishing the woman , perid.

With today’s society of abortion, people are not being coerced or forced to get abortions (although it does happen). If a woman is willingly going to abort her child, she should face the same consequences. The thought never crossed their minds before to do such a thing, because most abortions back then were not mothers who willingly murdered their child.

I’m definitely NOT a Trump supporter either but I say kudos to him too if he said this and meant it.

Another “The woman is a victim” pro-abort heard from.

It’s rather amusing that you look to 19th century laws and standards to hold to that view. But whatever you feel is necessary in downplaying the moral crime of abortion is your problem. Not mine.

Antonius said upthread there are mitigating circumstances in which the woman is a victim.

And when I asked if he would follow the logical sequence and list the “mitigating circumstances” in which abortion is OK, he declined.

You can’t have it both ways. If a woman is allowed a free pass to have an abortion, then what other allowances are we to make in allowing these murders of our unborn?

Shame on you and Mr don-o.

I don't think any abortionist will ever be convicted --- ever --- if the woman is not seen, in law and in practice, as a co-victim rather than a perp.

Talking sense to this mob of cultists is a hairy business.

Why not take the chance? Hillary would crush Cruz and Cruz is a typical politician who cant give straight answers.

Cruz has no charisma, Trump does.

And if you think bombastic personalities cant win elections you are wrong

Is it not worrying in itself that European Christianity is now barely able to keep Europe Christian?” Mr. Orban asked. “There is no alternative, and we have no option but to defend our borders.”

President of Hungary just said this, There will be another Cruz, lets take a chance with something truly radical something that could indeed make america great and moral again !

Trump just moved the overton window back.

Only wants to punish the doctor now.

Saying that doctor should be punished doesn’t flip flop the statement. If he stated that women shouldn’t be punished would be a flip flop.

If the abortion is ILLEGAL and she knowingly broke the law, she should be punished. BTW no one is forcing her to keep her scummy boyfriend, why not get rid of him instead?

Throwing up my hands at this point. I already voted for Trump and he won my state. This is just lunacy now the GOP and conservative moment have become the Left: War on Women, fake assaults, defending protestors, Clinton like candidate etc etc.

There is no way this is ending well. Hillary has.already won and you can thank the stupid party and phony conservative media. All that matters to everyone is keep the dirty system going.
