  • You completely missed my point, let me clarify my example. Two guys got drunk and killed someone while they were driving. One of them was a rich guy with connections, the other was a poor black guy with a criminal record. The rich guy gets a very light sentence and the black guy gets a much more serious charge. In this example the laws were selectively, subjectively, enforced.

    This can happen with any law, with every law. I can come up with different examples all day. Every law, and all laws can be selectively enforced.

  • Ok how about murder? Guy murders someone by hitting them when he is drunk. Rich guy with a good lawyer and connections in the community gets community service, but the poor, black man with a pot possession misdemeanor when he was 15 gets life in prison.

  • Unjust laws can and should be eliminated, but people using laws unjustly cannot. Speeding is a crime, but it is not perfectly enforced. Cops let family members go more often, good looking people, people they identify with, etc. Speeding is a just law that is not always enforced in a just way. This is always the case.

  • That may be so, but you can't just get rid of laws because they could be used unjustly. All laws could be used unjustly.

  • Yeah I suppose it opens the door for investigations in case of miscarriage since some of the methods for abortion can be hard to tell apart from natural miscarriage. And yeah it could be abused or selectively enforced, and that's the danger of any laws. We are always walking that line.

  • She got charged because she left the baby in the toilet, and even then they almost saved it. She was ultimately cleared of blame, but this story is nowhere near being representative of normal miscarriage. My cousin had a late term miscarriage, my mom had late miscarriage with twins, and two of my sister in laws did as well. None of those cases came even close to being treated as anything other than regular, normal (but sad) miscarriage. They had small funerals and buried or cremated the babies in each of those cases.

  • How many times has it happened? I would be astonished if it has happened even once without being very obviously abuse of some kind. Something like drinking heavily or doing drugs even though you know you are pregnant.

    Also, what would be the motivation to do this? An excuse to lock women up in jail? This is one of the weirdest conspiracy theories that still somehow persists despite a complete lack of rationality.

  • How big is the risk of being jailed? Of all the women having miscarriages every single day, how many are being jailed? And for how many of those is there other circumstances? Do you think the end goal is to jail half of women? Seriously...

  • Miscarriages are insanely common, to the point where you are talking about jailing a majority of women. Do you actually believe that they want to do this? That's like cartoon-villian level of evil and so extreme that it's astonishing to me that people find this kind of hysteria so easy to believe. This place blows my mind sometimes with how much of an echo chamber it is.

  • Being "cowardly" seemed important to you, so I wanted to clarify.

  • Wait, are you saying that the people attacked and killed on October 7 were combatants, and not innocent civilians? That's your argument?

  • What do you think of dropping in unexpectedly to kill innocent, unarmed civilians, and then running and hiding amongst other civilians hoping that you won't get attacked in return? Is that cowardly?

  • Those are the organizations behind October 7th attacks, bus bombings, synagogue bombings, etc where innocent civilians were specifically targeted. They are stated enemies of Israel and the United States, according to them. Why don't you take their own word for it? Quit stanning for terrorists who would happily blow up the bus you ride on with you in it, and then celebrate killing you.

  • October 7 was done by terrorists.

  • Hezbollah is a terrorist group. I never said anything about Lebanon committing terrorism, only that they harbor the Hezbollah terrorists.

  • I have no idea what you are talking about and I stand by my definition of terrorism.

    Edit: also just noticed that you've been taking the time to down vote all of my comments. Lol.

  • It's just that I have no idea what you are talking about, you have been wrong several times, and refuse to clarify what you mean about anything. Basically this is a dead end conversation.

  • Are you the same guy who sent me a link and called me an idiot for not reading it even though it supported my point?

  • I will go with "random attacks on civilians intended to instill fear in a populace". Now you go
