A quick google said that bt 34-45% of abortions are repeat abortions. If I cared more or wasnt completely disturbed by the topic Id look into it more. That has to blow your mind, right?

Because the ‘facts’ are up to interpretation because they’re being presented alongside bias and opinion. Have you read the actual patents? I haven’t. I assume a layperson would not want to read patents; they might not even be able to. So we’re relying on a man’s interpretation and representation of a patent. A guy who has shown a history of endorsing conspiracy theories, so he has skin in the game.
@GhostOf301 It happened! I was wrong. Repeat abortions are more common than I had thought. Likely more common than rape abortions.
@toonces11 about half of abortions result from women who were using contraception. They were trying to be responsible.
What are your thoughts in their case?

That number had to be astronomically higher than what you were thinking right? How does that change how you feel about your stance on abortion?
To your question - It's tough as hell. My 5 yr old was unplanned (using contraception) and it never once crossed my mind if I wanted to have him or not. Granted I knew I wanted to marry this girl before it happened but I'd like to think I would do the right thing in any situation.. I wish less people had to be in the situation you described, I just dont think I could ever decide to terminate out of convenience.
My stance on abortion doesn’t change. I don’t see it as killing a human. It’s no different than Plan B, to me. I like the current 2nd trimester limit. Repeat abortions and abortions of convenience (aren’t most out of convenience?) weren’t and aren’t factors in my stance.
opinions are great huh? You just cant prove them and then when you are proven wrong with facts, you still cant admit it. What a sad little liberal troll POS you are.
There aren’t compelling reasons to lie in anonymous surveys and confidential medical questionnaires.
I guess that makes sense if you dont believe its a living thing. I guess my official stance is abortion should be very rare.
I’ve referred to Louis C.K.’s bit on this before because he sums it up pretty well. (Paraphrasing) If you don’t think it’s a person, then who cares. If you do think it’s murder of a person, then of course you’d feel strongly; it’s murder.
The two times I’ve been wrong have been conversations with Toonces.
This is how rivalries start

You probably shouldn't refer to louis C.K. on such topics. Save that for jerk off material.
That has to be JImbo, right?
Tha hell? A massive part of my job is fetal development.
He’s cumming to my area of New York in September. Planning to buy tickets. One of the best.
He has his moments. Not one of my favorites though. Jim Gaffigan will be in Wilmington this fall. He's alright. Might go see him depending on how many other people want to go.
The wife and some cackling hens are going to see Miranda Lambert tomorrow night. I will probably go work the bar.
Tom Segura comes here next spring. I actually really like Segura, Burr, and CK
Been listening to Kyle Kinane and Jeff Dye. Those are some funny dudes. Can't find it on YouTube, but Jeff Dye has a 13 minute segment called dating stinks. So funny.
Do you really think I’m a nurse? That’s all I can think of as to why you don’t think my profession has to do with fetal development. I’m a sonographer and document fetal development for a living.

Im not sure if he does comedy anymore, but nick Swordson (SP) was also hilarious at times
Someone’s pretty rustled and/or trolling hard when they take it to “a sonographer registered in obstetrics works in a profession that has nothing to do with fetal development”. That even hurts to write.
Then how did you get this wrong? If I ask a QB how to throw a football and he says well first, you have to stick your thumb in your ass, I probably wouldn’t think he’s a QB.
So you admit you misunderstand what coordinated brain activity is?
At this point, I don’t think he realizes he’s trolling. I think it’s just the way he is.
The brain telling the limb to move or the fist to squeeze is coordinated activity.
I like this development though. It means most here can’t argue with me about economics, finance and accounting. I am now the business czar here.
