Ruvan22 05/06/22 6:21:40 PM #130:	undefined posted... Ahh so you were saying it should have been left up to the states. A few questions: A) Do you believe Texas, Florida, Idaho, etc had discussions before enacting their recent abortion restrictions? B) Why do you believe "historical precedent" should be the determining factor in whether something is a right? Different states at the time of founding had varying laws about lots of things but the country has decided to implement (14th and 19th for example). C) You mentioned the US being less regressive than other countries - why was this relevent? Magyar15 posted... A)No idea. B) It's about more than being right. It's about people having the right to decide what kind of society they want to live in. From that perspective, we have been getting less and less free, partciularly as the administrative bureaucracy has grown. C) What do you mean? A) So why do you believe leaving it up to the states will lead to a conversation and compromise? Recent laws were not reached through that, but through slim Republican majority in most of the states (that don't match population desires) B) Apologies for the grammar - I wasn't asking "abortion being right", I was asking "abortion being a right", since you referenced precedence as a guiding principle in determining what rights people have. C) I'm asking why you mentioned abortion rights/restrictions in other parts of the world? How is that related to US abortion rights/restrictions? <cite>Ruvan22 posted [p:964843139] in You think ...
