And...Then Rand Paul Did Something Foolish
Rand Paul Introduces ‘Life at Conception Act’
http://www.theblaze.com/stories/2013...onception-act/ Kentucky Senator Rand Paul on Thursday introduced the “Life At Conception Act,” saying that the “right to life is guaranteed to all Americans.” “I plan to ensure this is upheld,” the Republican senator added. “Sen. Paul introduced S.583, a bill that would implement equal protection under the 14th Amendment for the right to life of each born and unborn human,” the senator’s office said, per a press release. “This legislation does not amend or interpret the Constitution, but simply relies on the 14th Amendment, which specifically authorizes Congress to enforce its provisions,” his office adds. Here is what Section 1 of the 14th Amendment states: No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.The bill has 15 cosponsors (all Republican) including Sens. John Barrasso (Wyo.), John Boozman (Ark.), Richard Burr (N.C.), Daniel Coats (Ind.), Thomas Coburn (Okla.), Michael Enzi (Wyo.), Deb Fischer (Neb.), Charles “Chuck” Grassley (Iowa), John Hoeven (N.D.), James “Jim” Inhofe (Okla.), Mike Johanns (Neb.), Jerry Moran (Kan.), James Risch (Idaho), John Thune (S.D.), and Roger Wicker (Miss.) “The Life at Conception Act legislatively declares what most Americans believe and what science has long known — that human life begins at the moment of conception, and therefore is entitled to legal protection,” Sen. Paul said. “The right to life is guaranteed to all Americans in the Declaration of Independence and ensuring this is upheld is the Constitutional duty of all Members of Congress,” he added.

Viability most certainly is a losing argument for your side.

If the guys don't get to share in the decision making process, they should be immune from any kind of mandatory child support. What is fair is fair after all.

That's pretty disgusting for the reason you stated, if you ask me. ( exception is a teenager who is unable but that's not just mere "wanting" to)

Pretty sure if a woman gets a court ordered paternatity test and the guy is the father she can sue for child support.

That only happens if the woman agrees to it and as a man you better get it in a contract because she can change her mind at any time. Otherwise the man is SOL.

What a lame ass thing to search. First answer, "Stop being a deadbeat!" Next answer, "Yes, you still have to pay." Next answer, "No, you don't have to pay." Anyways, the moral of the story, if you have enough money to pay a good chunk of child support, you'll find someone that's willing have a baby with you. |

a non-viable fetus cannot survive outside the womb, even with the aid of technology... i'm not sure how this applies to my "logic", but the concept of viability is hardly rendered non-existent by a poorly fitting analogy... |

I see threads like these on forums, and pray to god for the separation of Religion and Politics from office.
Just kidding, I'm not religious, but I wish every day, that these idiotic religious folks would stop pressing their matters of religion upon political views and ideals. The two are not synonymous. My only wish in life is to live long enough to see the separation of church and government, so that I can die a peaceful man. |

..and that's what abortion boils down to.. a woman can't get herself pregnant, yet give her total control so men/women can get laid without being responsible. |
