What a vile, scumbag organization!

You argue like you read, poorly. I didn't say I didn't call people names douchebag; I said that you're nothing without it. I've laid down my argument; refute it or commence gargling my teabagging nuts!

You are not worth answering...what argument? Name calling is your game and being all 'macho'...go for it...enjoy

[keyser soze]

I saw it with my own eyes. I don't watch Fox news.

Saw what? It?!

[keyser soze]

I think someone spilled a bag of troll food in this thread. Its like watching a pig at a trough.

Well, I never called them pigs...or trolls...

It's obvious you have no desire to discuss the topic and even more obvious that you want to be a troll to this thread.

Refute my argument with logic. Not one line dismissals. If u can.

[logroller]

I never saw you post an argument either. It is a debate site.

[logroller]

Bumped again, for soze

Refute this:

I gave her a vacation from this thread, or the "total recall" package. This WAS a decent thread for quite a bit, then a troll came in and veered it into a tree. Hopefully others can bring it back on course, minus the trolling of course.

You're incapable of answering. It's logically sound; legally just and rationally prudent. You can't go into a thread that has been discussed at length and expect to participate without getting up to speed on what's already been discussed. It's insulting to those who've take the time to actually read and consider other people's posts and the time and energy they put in to their posts. If you can't recognize that then you deserve whatever name calling you receive.

Well, 'decent' is a matter of opinion. I don't go for the personal attacks, but the core here tends to pile on, while avoiding the issues. Same as any message board. If you guys prefer to sit and agree with yourselves all day long, that's fine.

Are there any physicians who have been consulted over this legislation? I'm not talking about physicians who are anti abortion. I'm talking about physicians who treat all women for a variety of health related matters.

The "core" here doesn't pile on. In THIS thread I would say those against abortion have "piled on" those pro-choice. But for the most part, it was a decent and adult-like discussion free of "trolling" and name calling.

I don't see anyone wanting solely to agree or avoiding issues that others bring up.

It was 'decent' because nobody challenged the assertions that filled these pages. On 3 occassions now, in this thread I asked a question.

I'd suggest you read the last few pages of filth, and ask who needed to be removed from the thread.

All because the term tbag is offensive here.

But not comments about urinals?

So the procedure itself isn't the problem. A simple, "I'm going to give you an ultrasound to determine the fetal development. Do you wish to see?" would satisfy your concerns?

Opinions aside, is there currently a requirement for the doctor to determine development before performing an abortion? Is there a line of development beyond which the abortion cannot be legally performed?

Oh well, we aren't going to allow new members to come here, try and insult the entire community - and then dictate to us how we should run the place. I'd much prefer if everyone tried to remain on topic, and TRY to keep things as civil as possible, and not purposely enter threads with the desire to troll and instigate trouble. Sorry if you see it differently, but that is exactly what "soze" did here.

Well, yes. She did come in with guns blazing.

And she was met with the same. This is a pretty heated topic. I'd hardly call the response to someone who doesn't agree with the core here 'civil'.

I don't know that anyone is dictating anything about running the board. I chose to stay out to the topic, because there was nothing but opinion being bandied about.
And yes...being new, my opinion isn't as welcome as someone elses. But there comes a point where someone asks a question that requires more than opinion, and the discussion goes right to the sewer.


Such is the nature of political message boards. Believe it or not, I've seen meltdowns on Hummingbird message boards.

Go figure.
