I totally missed this earlier where you completely misrepresented what I said, which was 10 hours ago, EaglesRocker97 said: You are a strict originalist; I am not. The notion of implied rights has existed and been repeatedly recognized by the Court since long before Roe. It would be impractical and, quite frankly, impossible to enumerate every single individual right in the Constitution. The document intentionally provides room for interpretation so to provide a framework for rights and immunities that is flexible enough to be workable across history. That flexibility has made it the longest-surviving constitution in history. But if the right insists on applying the Constitution to the 21st Century in a manner exclusively consistent with 18th-Century social and legal standards, then I would not bet on us remaining a country very much longer. But you can argue that the Court went too far in how they made the ruling, as this is probably the most extreme application of implied substantive due process, and you are correct that the true remedy here is an amendment. You either can't read or were being completely disingenuous. The obvious point I'm making here is that if the Constitution is not interpreted with the minimal amount of flexibility required to keep up with the needs of an industrialized nation in the 21st Century, then we will fail sooner rather than later. This isn't a threat, it is a bet. I won't be burning sh** down, but the outright refusal to meet the basic needs and expectations of your citizenry in the context the times and the denial of rights that they have previously enjoyed for half a century is precisely the kind of thing that leads to economic decay and social upheaval. We need a legal framework to be clear and consistent while dynamic enough to ensure stability. The nakedly regressive approach that the right is currently beholden to is a recipe for disaster. But hey, I know, you're the guy chomping at the bit to break out the Insurrection Act on protestors and border crossers, so we know how you'd handle the situation at the slightest hint of popular unrest.

TEW: the libertarian fascist The same guy who wants to machine gun people trying to cross the border is against women in America being able to get an abortion. It’s quite the balancing act.

May 4, 20223 yr "Being impregnated via rape is an opportunity for the victim" is some next-level yikes.
May 4, 20223 yr I gotta be honest, I don’t get the argument that a woman should still have the baby if she gets pregnant from rape or incest.

By the time she’s done with her rant my vote for Gary Johnson is characterized as a vote against Hillary and firmly puts me in the white male patriarchy camp.

May 4, 20223 yr Hmmm it’s almost like if you think abortion is murder of an innocent life, that doesn’t change based on the circumstances of how that life came to be 🤔 How weird that some of us don’t think we should slaughter people based on something they weren’t involved in. It’s almost like genocide is wrong or something.

May 4, 20223 yr You can mark me down as someone who believes that rape babies are as valuable as non rape babies.

For my "final" I built a slot machine for my grandmother. Way too practical. Damn shame I graduated immediately after taking that class. 8 hours ago, Dave Moss said: The wife brought up that I didn’t vote for Hillary today. Which restaurant did you take her to to apologize
May 4, 20223 yr 8 hours ago, Dave Moss said: I gotta be honest, I don’t get the argument that a woman should still have the baby if she gets pregnant from rape or incest. I don’t get why incest is involved. If the person willingly had sex with their brother cousin and got pregnant then it’s not rape and they knew the consequences of their actions. If they didn’t want teh sex with their brother cousin then it’s rape.
