At the bottom of the story

UPDATE: 6:05 p.m. -- Bright backed down late Tuesday afternoon, and the South Carolina Senate passed the 20-week abortion ban with rape and incest exceptions. The lawmaker said that anti-abortion activists believe the exceptions he objects to will be stripped from the bill's final version after the Senate conferences with the House.

how does that matter in the slightest?

That man, and everyone that supports his fetid, diseased opinion are horrible people.

Because the thing that you're doing him for has been done and dusted and in the favor you wanted I don't see the discussion if this is done.

[Emageht Tsoluoy]

you do not see a problem with an elected official publicly stating that rape and incest victims should be forced to carry to term?
and actively protesting a bill designed to protect incest and rape victims?

like, that is not a problem in and of itself?

maybe i do not understand what you are trying to say.

i do not wake up in the morning and think "the world needs more rape victims giving birth to children of rapists." or "hey, that poor girl needs to carry her uncle-brother's child to term because its the right and moral thing to do"...

i think "oh god, what a horrible thing to have happen, lets help these victims in whatever way possible".

Wishes harm on people who disagree with you. That will teach them to be more progressive.

A bit hyperbolic.

The neo-cons are just jumping over the abyss left and right. It will cost them dearly in the end.

[Emageht Tsoluoy]

I am apparently of the unpopular opinion that people that force rape victims to carry the child of their rapists are horrible, vile, disgusting people.

That makes me sad.

[chazus]

Any chance the OP can actually mention anything regarding the actual article?

Your thinking is victim centered. He is not. These people are not attempting these things to intentionally make things hard for the victims...they are doing it to protect "Babies." For the pro life crowd that look at it as killing a baby in order to appeal to the victims. That is not a good trade of for them.

1 month, 5 months, 8 months, i do not see a problem.

the decision to have an abortion for someone in that particular position, has to be an extremely difficult one regardless of when they decide to have it, if the have it.

taking that decision away from anyone who has suffered like that not on just the violent act that initiated it, but again when forced with the decision to either keep or remove it, is abominable.

What makes you think regardless to what YOU do someone else who is beholding to ideological stupid beliefs is going to some how change their mind, especially when it is specifically not in their interest?

And as I showed he has done it now I don't get why this is going on when he has done what you wished for.

Well, he does. That's why he is doing a filibuster.

[Emageht Tsoluoy]

because he put it out there.

i do not care one whit if he backtracked on his filibuster.

that does not absolve him in any way, shape or form from his actions.

You know if you were raped you should have the abortion before 20 weeks just saying.

what?

NO.

I think that people who FORCE rape and incest victims victims to carry to term are horrible.

This bill was a 20-week ban on abortions, with an exception specifically crafted to let incest and rape victims abort beyond that limit.

the only reason he backed down, was because he expects those exceptions to be eventually removed from the final bill.

You know if you were raped you should have the abortion before 20 weeks just saying.

and i think that if that happened to anyone, they might take longer than 20 weeks to come to terms with their decision to either keep an unwanted reminder of possibly the most traumatic episode of their lives, or kill an innocent child that is the result of that trauma, but had no part itself in it.

and forcing people to an arbitratry deadline on that determination is wrong.
