That's you. 

Okay this is a strawman but a damn funny one at that.  I'll allow it to stand. /s

I think post-Roe decisions underscore how poor a decision Roe was in terms of objective legal reasoning. I think the same about post-Miranda decisions. Not to open a can of worms…. Just my opinion.

Hold up... You think Miranda was wrongfully decided? Next you are gonna tell me you don't think Katz was decided correctly... Who needs a reasonable expectation of privacy anyways?

I think Miranda is narrower than its succession of cases have ruled, based on the majority opinion.

Well the Court strictly ruled that laws banning bigamy, and incest as constitutional but I shouldn't expect you to know important SCOTUS cases when we are discussing SCOTUS cases.

Okay, don’t.

The pro life people are just anti abortion folks. Yes, I talk about the hypocrisy of the left with this topic but let’s not forget that the right acts all righteous about this subject. I mean look at the laws of many states…..let’s say they ban abortions and a 16 year old has to have this child. A 16 year old person cannot go and adopt a baby at that age. Hmmmm….so what we are saying is we don’t think you are capable of raising a child…..but let’s force you to have a child….or at the very minimal let’s force you to have a child and put her/him into a system that’s messed up and already over taxed in the first place. 
 

F-Ing get your religious views out of politics just because  it makes you feel better about the sins you do yourself. I personally don’t believe in abortion, but it’s not me that has to answer that at  the pearly gates.

How is it narrower?  I have honestly not heard anyone speak to Miranda's narrowness so I am genuinely curious.

I think most reasonable pro-choice people would be fine with abortion limited to a time period that allows women to know they are pregnant and make an informed choice to abort or not.  Probably sometime between 6-12 weeks.  If you go to low say like 4 weeks, most women won't find out they are pregnant until its past the time they can get an abortion.

No one has said anything but this. Why would you repeat like someone was?

Maybe this is my ignorance, but I always had the train of thought that once the Supreme Court ruled on a subject it was set in stone and could not be overturned in the future.  As a pro-life person, that is what I do not like, is that they undid the ruling.

Like my view on guns, I have somewhat of an interesting stance on abortion, if anyone is willing to read my thoughts on here.  I want to repeat what I said above that the law should not have been overturned, or allowed to be overturned.  I think once the Supreme Court rules, it is law and in stone.

I do not agree with abortion, unless it is rape or incest.  I am in the belief that if it is not rape, sex is a choice and how safely you choose to go about it.  Pregnancy is a consequence of it, which can be a wonderful thing.  Too many people these days in general, do not want to take responsibility for their actions.  NOW, having said this, I think the men need to be held at least financially responsible.  You do not get the option to walk away from your baby.  Just like I said above, sex is a choice the man also made and should be held accountable.

So, if we take away abortion, we need to add a law to force the fathers to at the minimum financially support the baby and the mother.  No more dead-beat dads.  You don't get the choice to be a coward and run away.

Sure, they would love to see needless abortion eliminated.

All else said nothing more than your opinion and attitude.......

Prohibiting the government from intervening into one's basic right of privacy and autonomy concerning reproductive behavior is "poor legal reasoning"?

You call yourself a "conservative"?

And speaking of "opinion and attitude", exactly what gives you the right to dictate to a woman what is "needless" regarding her choice to get an abortion?

I would agree, in terms of legal reasoning.  The Court was attempting to find a sense of middle ground, something that is very much the role of the legislative branch.  Unfortunately, we have seen little effective leadership on issues as controversial as abortion. The argument could be made that the system is designed to discourage compromise in that way, but I believe it is simply symptomatic of American political divisiveness.

I support abortion if it is rape, incest or the mothers life is in jeopardy.

So, apparently, your belief that a fertilized egg is an autonomous human being is actually contingent on your arbitrary opinion regarding rape, incest and the relative importance of the mother's life.

So, why should your opinion take precedence over the woman's opinion, who is after all, the principal in this?

We have some of the most strict laws in the world requiring child support and also forcing a non paying parent to re-pay government aid given to mothers when the father isn't paying that support.  Child support is the only area of debt that we actually have debtors sent to prison.  I'm not certain what else could be done legally.

For a man that does not believe in God you probably don’t understand the nuances.  I was thanking God, at that moment of the choosing of justices, that Trump was the President.  It does not mean I believe God bestowed Trump with some saint hood or ordained power to run the Country.

 

Yeah, right.

"Thank God for Trump."  is sooooooo  nuanced.   :party:       :laugh:

More of a reductio ad absurdum, and not in and of itself a fallacy. 

A strawman requires misrepresentation.

My understanding that if you are not married to the woman that the man can still run away?  Is that incorrect?
