  1. Somebody writes what’s presented to you on your ‘daily scan’.
  2. Perhaps you’d prefer something from the ‘political rightwing’ of British newspapers: https://www.express.co.uk/news/politics/1631182/boris-johnson-no-confidence-vote-conservative-party-prime-minister-tory-rebels-vn
  3. You mean people not happy with the PM, his Government and the mess they are making of the UK. Yes I agree, voting them out is an excellent means of protest.
  4. Again this is not a sensible argument wrt to giving a man a say in a woman’s choice to have an abortion. You also seem not to understand what ‘bodily autonomy’ means. Giving a man any say what so ever over the choices a woman makes with her own body strips her of ‘bodily autonomy’. Arguing for men to be allowed to do so reveals the glaring subtext of this SCOTUS ruling, controlling women’s bodies. It is not possible to dictate to women what they can and cannot do with there own bodies without stripping them of the freedom men take for granted, they immediately become ‘controlled’, no longer fully in possession of their own bodies.
  5. In his ruling Justice Thomas argued against the right to access contraception, also not specifically mentioned in the Constitution and very clearly stated intent to remove that as a Federally protected right.
  6. Surely if a man impregnates a woman and she then gets an abortion she’s saved him from all these awful causes of ‘man pity you refer to? Or are you arguing that a man should have the right to choose inflicting all these causes of ‘man pity’ on himself, perhaps vetoing an abortion in some strange attempt at causing self harm? Do you not see the absurdity of arguing the sacrifices of men raising children as an argument against abortion?
  7. What’s all this ‘man pity’ got to do with the right of a woman to hold dominion over her own body?
  8. It’s a no odd thing. The people who want to legislate to remove the rights of a woman over her own body are the same people who bang on about needing guns to protect them from the tyranny of government.
  9. Your commitment to supporting your bio local children is commendable (though should anyone ever have a choice). However, your decision to take responsibility for your own actions is a separate matter to a woman having dominion over her own body.
  10. He doesn’t have a womb, it belongs to somebody else. I’m surprised this fact has evaded you.
  11. 1. It’s not a baby. 2. It’s indisputably her body. 3. Yes you are right, at issue is women being stripped of choices over their own bodies.
  12. In principle I agree with most of that. However, it’s not just ‘screwing up’ that warrants removal. One Justice lies under oath during his appointment hearing and a second has very clear conflict of interest/obstruction of justice questions to answer. These two need to be removed and replaced. Next up, the Constitution says nothing at all about how many Justices should be seated on the SCOTUS. Some rebalancing is in order.
  13. Roman Catholic and Christian Fundamentalist are not mutually exclusive, far from it. A Constitutional Amendment to enshrine the rights of a woman to abortion would be a good thing, but won’t happen. However getting the GOP out of the way and reforming the SCOTUS is an achievable aim. There are two Justices ripe for removal, the Democrats need to take the gloves off.
  14. Let’s take that at face value and then examine what it is the ‘States’ now get to do. Decide on what a woman can do with her own body and in doing so stripping her of dominion over her own body. Let’s hear the arguments that make that acceptable?
