What about children being born into families that want them, then the families become shitty and decide they don't want them any more? What's your solution for that?
We have one, they are allowed immunity if they abandon them at a police or fire station, so they have a clear incentive to do so, and the child is safe. They will face severe punishment for leaving them in a ditch. I think many forget the core concept of laws - de-incentivize behavior deemed destructive for a community/society/etc., and incentivize behavior deemed to strengthen and keep it cohesive. I shouldn't use forget, but rather, put it lower on the list of reasons on why a law exists.

For any who cares, I got ambitiously autistic before realizing this is stupid in a RBG dead thread, but I wrote it, so fuck it:

The idea is that stopping a life from existing, prevents that person from ever existing and is it right to take that away from the person who would have been born otherwise. Even the non-religious can follow the logic in how that can be argued as murder, so I find it a valid point to make, or atleast debate from that perspective. Personally don't think it should be either sides wants and wishes and the middle ground should be somewhere at: Abortion is legal, laws require education to be shown (Not Propaganda films, educational only) and legal documents signed that the person isn't under durress, the reason (for data only, any reason is valid), and that they fully understand the medical risk (psychiatric pamplet's for information after surgery as well), this can only be done before the heart beat or brain activity (meaning no reason is invalid, and abortion is given), provide income information for reduced cost or free, and after the heart beat or brain (which ever is decided on) abortion can only be given if there is medical proof that the pregnancy threatens the life of the mother (medical proof with signed affidavit from the doctor who performs the diagnosis). As for who makes the informational video? Go to the RNC and DNC, tell them to make the best case for their side of the issue: Why you should have the abortion & Why you should keep the child. Both must be shown before a decision is signed and made. A third option, which can be inside the RNC video, is that if the mother still thinks they don't want to have a child, but also don't want to prevent pregnancy, that they can approach any adoption agency and sign an agreement to have the child be born and taken to be put up for adoption. Even if they change their mind, have no medical reason, in the time period between the decided cut-off, they are still allowed the adoption route.

The idea here is to make the decision with all information available, so that it is well informed as well as difficult, as it should be, it is detrimental to a society to purposely incentivize a decrease to it's population, especially when it has countless miles of land it can expand to, has an ever increasing economy to the benefit of all of the people in it that requires more labor ( and inviting in foreign born to replace them is also increasingly destructive) and people seem to forget/ignore/lie about the overall psychological effects of making that abortion decision. It also tends to reduce the risk considered when deciding on pre-marital sex, and I'm no prude, but giving a consequence free and easy avenue for the negative outcome of getting pregnant close to zero in the minds of many young women making it incredibly easy (as stats have shown) to pull the trigger. Leaving it where it is currently or increasing the ease of it, only has negative outcomes that far out weigh any of your concerns about adoption agencies, an issue we wouldn't have, if it weren't for the left's destructive totalitarian behavior in attack every christian organization in the world, by attacking their big corporate donors to remove their funding and then destroying several christian adoption homes because they did not agree with letting a gay or lesbian couple adopt, who could have EASILY adopted from a state one.
By your own admission, there is 2-7 year waiting period for an infant? How do you throw that stat out and still have the idea that there isn't enough people willing to adopt, at least in regards to the current issue of no one adopting those allowed to be birthed and not aborted?? The person you were replying to shouldn't have taken the "L", because you proved his previous statement true, there aren't enough infants available, for the demand on them, meaning as soon as one is available, it's already locked to the first person on the list. There maybe infants technically in the adoption process, but they don't stay long enough in that process to really count.

Anyhow, thank God that woman is dead. I am no fan of someone who lies to everyone and pretends to be virtuous, while performing the exact opposite in their actions by holding onto her position, siding only with her ideological side instead of the law like she is suppose to, and then using her position to express her political preference. Perhaps she did some good things, once or twice, and was a pioneer, that's great, still doesn't make up for her negative actions later. I don't celebrate that she died, I celebrate she left her position and hopefully someone better, more able to consider both sides in everything, and someone who doesn't use different, never before definitions of words, or ones re-interpreted and re-defined to make their decisions on cases justifiable. If your only way to frame or win the debate, is to use made up modern definitions, or "activist" interpretations then your judgement should be instantly called to question. Consider them of course, times change after all, but if a decision comes down to a single definition, then you should defer to traditional definition ALWAYS, until a better case can be presented, and not abuse your power and force definitions (which are needed for society to agree on, in order to function) that the vast majority of our country doesn't agree with.
 
This line always fucks with me. Jesus was not a refugee. The story about his family fleeing to Egypt is not only historically unviable, but it's clearly a narrative based on Exodus. It pisses me off so much to hear people swing around scripture when they know absolutely nothing about what's behind the text. Read a goddam commentary, you "Christians." Metzger, Brown, fucking anything. Go buy an annotated NRSV. Do anything but say this bullshit.
I mainly see that argument used by "This argument wouldn't work on me but if I use it on you you'll do what I want" types or self-proclaimed liberal Christians. So I'm not sure if someone like her would fall for it, but I thought there would be a risk .

So babies are in demand, but few people want to adopt a child older than 4 because the kid is probably messed up already?
 
Based prediction of events between now and post-election. Talks about riots, election meddling, what civil war could look like.

Found myself agreeing more than dismissing.

Seriously, this is the worst move to make. To coup the fucking president. That is the worst move to make. Only a madman who wants to see the world burn would do that. I've talked about what I think would happen if Trump was assassinated. Basically, the GOP would get anything they want passed in the name of "Never again". Anyone opposed to it would be shouted down at, called unamerican and whatnot. I'm not sure Trump would want this revenge, but the fallout from a fail coup would mean the DNC would never hold any elected position again. I'm not even sure their strongholds would keep supporting them at that point.

At least a fail coup would probably not result in Trump's death. And Trump might be able to rangle the GOP in to not try and pass the "Patriot Act 2.0". I'm hoping the DNC isn't this crazy to do so. I can see Antifa doing it. But the DNC could still make it out of that in one piece and disown the movement. If the DNC backed a coup on the other hand...

e: reading it now, it seems like a doomer wet dream. I think some of it will happen. But the parts about getting guns from China for BLM seems like bullshit. They also mention the DNC having "extreme organization" for the fraud they want to comit. Considering everything the DNC has done up to this point, they can't coup their way out of a paperbag. Not to say they want to do it, because they do.

Also the part about the UN forces being on the side of the Dems is laughable. Anyone who tries that shit is going to have a giant red target on them and kickstart WWIII. And anyone with half a fucking brain isn't stupid enough to take on the world's most powerful military. And I'm doubtful anyone will side with the Dems. The un will probably tell them to fuck off. China is busy with their own problems and fighting India. Europe is shrinking their armies. And Russia probably doesn't want a military fight with the US. Not to mention the other nations around the globe who would be fighting with the US. And the fact that trying to fight the US on their own turf is unfeasble, never been done, and hasn't been attempted since 1814.

e2: this is a literal doomer / preper wet dream. Its funny as a jape. But anyone who takes it seriously needs to take a giant chill pill.

Bit late, someone else brought that up and I'll repeat ti here. That has all the hallmarks of a nutter over a serious assassination attempt. Anyone who thinks about it longer than 10 seconds will realize such an attempt has a literally 0% chance of working. I'd expect a serious assassination attempt to have at least A chance to succeed.
Someone in Utah sent a similar package to Trump a year or two ago.

Trying to say "Christians accept/condone [insert liberal policy here] because [event in the Bible occurred] is hysterical because some really fucked up shit happens in the Bible and not even the most conservative evangelicals take the whole thing as 100% rulebook. If you want a good example, read Judges 19, where it's more a historical example of obvious godlessness than "you must do this, lol".

Even for Christians who take accounts like the flight of Jesus to Exodus literally don't interpret that as "we need to import more people into the country who (implictly or explicitly) want to see us die for our faith" which demographically is what modern refugees are for the most part.

People who say that are just "this argument won't work on me but it might make you do what I want" tier and should be ignored. I'm sure Amy Comey Barrett, being a lawyer and a Christian, would be able to see right through shit liberal strawman arguments just like this one.
 
Neoliberals are pussies and won't do shit. They are money first for whatever department of corporate America they work for.

The niggers on the streets only want free shit.

The guilty ugly white race traitor commies while while loud, are minority that have no traction even within the democratic party itself. Otherwise Bernie would be the nominee and not milquetoast neoliberal Biden.
 
They're probably banking on whatever technicality they can muster to get the Senate to the "remove from office" threshold. That or turn up the heat high enough to force a resignation.
Trump's not going to resign. And good luck finding a technicality. Wait a minute, if they try impeachment and fail, won't that ignite more tension?
 
Everything I'm saying is only semi-applicable to niggers as obviously their inherent family structure is less sophisticated. That doesn't mean any of it is untrue, just that it has diminished truth to them specifically. They wouldn't be like us without abortion, obviously, but it certainly has a negative effect.
I find it strange that one moment you're capitalizing Black and the next you're calling them niggers. Not suspicious or worthy of scorn, mind you. Just strange.
 
I just read thru that whole screed, it'd make a hell of a first person shooter. As for UN troops landing in the US? HAW HAW HAW. Other than some light wheeled APCs and small arms the UN has no homogeneous equipment. It has to rely on armies acting on its behalf for the most part. Nobody wants to try the US' patience during a crisis even 1/100th that dire, especially not the global powerhouse backed up by countries like Ivory Coast, Luxembourg, and Thailand.

Impeaching him for... what exactly?
Is this their October surprise?
 
The dems are fucking losing their shit over the replacement. At this rate it'll be necessary for a 3rd party that's more akin to their 80s or early 90s incarnation to rise up in order to take their place. But sadly the Dems are just too ingrained into society and the pockets of the elite for that too happen.

Also since they have no problem with resorting to blackmail on live television, would they actually try to sugarcoat an attempt to assassinate the president as an "extreme but understandable response" or be stupid enough to call it a "a fiery but mostly peaceful assassination attempt"? And in the event that this occurs or an assassination attempt is successful, this could only prove incredibly bad.

@It's HK-47 any thoughts?

Firstly, I think it's very important to completely disregard the image of Ginsberg that both sides have painted. She's not this Holier Than Thou Woman-Saint of Social Justice, and she's not a baby-eating hobgoblin. Almost everyone's opinion of Ginsberg is just an opinion that they've picked up from other people's opinions. They either see a candle with her face on it and go "omg yas queen" or see a tiny snippet of her one, dissenting opinion about abortion and go "omg satan." As always, there's a bit more nuance to that in a human being, even when they stop being a human being and become a human was.

I think that Ginsberg's death completely cements the death of their party, and that her dying wish was--now that I've stopped laughing and actually thought about it-- intentionally calculated to help destroy it. Ginsberg was a lot of things, but stupid wasn't one of them. It's very easy for people to pin her up there with all of the dipshit Communists and Socialists in the Democratic party these days, but Ginsberg not only predated the DNC turning into a collection of obese, neon-coloured Communists and their pet skeletons in Congress, she actively hated them.

Obama was a failure. Despite the fact that you see the both of them in pictures all the time and despite the fact that they met on dozens and dozens of occasions, Obama could never convince Ginsberg to retire so that he could appoint another Justice. For all of the charisma he's been accused of wielding, for all of the efforts to paint the both of them as progressive and perfectly-aligned equals, Obama couldn't get her to budge. She completely rejected his judgement and stubbornly refused to allow him to replace her. Why?

If you go back through Ginsberg's legal opinions--especially from the 1990s--you'll notice a pattern. The only time that she really strikes you as a "progressive" is when it comes to the issues of civil rights, and even then she doesn't typically walk that far out into Left field, they're just more Liberal, legal interpretations than her opinions on things like criminal justice, businesses, and freedom of speech. Moreover, you can see the logic in her opinions. She's not stamping her foot down and demanding that you listen to her or you're a racist, she's attempting to persuade you to her side, or in the very least explain how she came to that conclusion. You might find that you disagree with her anyways, but there's at least a structure to her arguments.

Compare that to Kagan or Sotomayer. Can anyone list a single opinion they've made that's been noteworthy? They're both women, they're both minorities, and they've both been on the Supreme Court for over a decade, so why does nobody care about them? Why are their political opinions never touted and why is their acumen for legal matters never lauded? The answer to that is tied directly to why Ginsberg would never let Obama take her seat on the Supreme Court.

Kagan acted as the Solicitor General for Barack Obama before he shoved her in a black dress and pushed her up to the Supreme Court, which was an awfully odd thing to do considering that as Solicitor General, she lost most of the cases that she elevated to the Court. If you try to read her individual dissents or opinions, you just wind up going glassy-eyed and losing interest, because there's no real substance to any of it. Kagan doesn't really think and she doesn't try to persuade you in the same way that Ginsberg did, much the same way that Sotomayer never bothers, and just tries to pull one heart string after another instead of giving you an actual fucking argument. People try to give Ginsberg flak for being some sort of Liberal rubber stamp in the Supreme Court, but that's just not true. Ginsberg sided with the Conservative Justices on a fairly routine basis, but Sotomayer could be replaced with a literal, rubber stamp and I think it'd be months before anyone noticed that she was missing, and even then it would only be because there's suddenly a lot of food left in the fridge and the Cloak Room isn't full of Milky Way wrappers.

Ginsberg wasn't stupid. Ginsberg saw the caliber of Justices that Obama was keen to appoint, and knew that people who are that overwhelmingly stupid are not only going to wind up destroying the Supreme Court if they're given a majority, they're going to end up destroying her legacy. I can see no other reason as to why she would have constantly fought off Obama's attempts to replace her, and I don't buy the narrative that she wanted to wait until Queen Hillary's coronation because Ginsberg wasn't nearly as progressive as people try to make her seem. Ginsberg was a lot of things, but a Social Justice lunatic wasn't one of them, and it's a mistake to try and give her that moniker.

Obama met damned near every checklist qualification for Social Justice types; he was the fucking Crown Prince of Social Justice and rapidly became one of their golden cows. If he couldn't convince her to step down from her seat, it wasn't because he "wasn't progressive enough." I think that everyone is mistaken in assuming that Ginsberg wanted Hillary to appoint her replacement, when it's much easier to assume that she just hated Obama.

Ginsberg wasn't stupid, and she wasn't some blind devotee to the Church of the Saint Who Can't Breathe. She used her own death as a political weapon, but she's not stupid. It wasn't done flippantly. There are very few people in the world who know the ins and outs of the legal processes as well as Ginsberg had, and she knew very well that there's no legal argument for her request to stand on. If there was, she would have left it behind, but the only thing that she left behind was a request that she knows is going to send the Democrats headfirst into an unwinnable fight.

There's nothing to stop it and trying to pull a "feels" to get the result that she wanted isn't something that you'll see in any of Ginsberg's dissents or much of anything in her personal life. She's painted up as "yas queen slay don't need no man!" but have you ever actually seen that coming from her, or just the people who depict her like that? It doesn't fit any of her history, it doesn't make any sense.

I think that Ginsberg knew full well that her dying wish wouldn't be respected, because she never wanted it to be respected. I think that's just the lit match that she threw into the room full of hippies and gasoline. She'd already seen the Far Left. She'd seen the economic damage, the riots, the identity politics, the slow erosion of everything that she'd been working for. She's dolled up as some kind of hyper-liberal who surrounds herself with It's Her Turn and BLM posters and her goldfish is a trans rights activist, but... That's just not who Ginsberg was. That's the Regressive Left's lunatic interpretation of Ginsberg because that's who they wanted her to be.

She'd already personally experienced what happens when these people get power: They appoint two fat retards who spend more time wolfing down cheap wine and take-out pizza than they do crafting dissenting opinions, all while insisting that even though these fat retards do nothing of value, they're your intellectual equals. They're the future of this party, and you need to retire so we can have more of them, and finish destroying your legacy so we can replace it with our own legacy of fat retards.

I think she laid down on that death bed, pulled the pin on the grenade, and went out knowing exactly what she was doing to the Far Left.
