"Officer, Don't Ticket Me, I have A Fetus On Board!

You always want to call it a Fetus.  Does that euphamism for the Human Baby Growing inside her body, make you feel better about Your particular Stance on Abortion?

Does calling a Human Baby a Fetus as you and other leftists do, tend to alleviate any sort of angst that you might have about supporting the killing of Unborn babies all over the world?

Just curious there.  

Can you answer that question, or will you ignore it as you tend to ignore all difficult moral questions?

I mean do you deny the Science that what is growing in that woman's body is a Human Baby?  

Are you that much of a Science Denier?  That's a simple question there which I predict you don't want to have a discussion about.  wink
Tell it to the cop who cited her...

Why are you such a Science Denier and why can't you answer my question?

Are you simply a Science lightweight and totally ignorant about the Female Reproductive system?

That's a baby, a human life she is carrying in her womb.

Its too bad that you didn't learn that simple fact in Biology or any of your classes when you studied to be a Doctor of Chiropractic.

Did you miss anatomy class most of the time?
Actually, I had excellent attendance but I recall studying the mass of undifferentiated cells you call a human being in my histology class. I also recall a bit about it in my OB-GYN class but that was during a portion of the 50 years under Roe v Wade and not under the Clarence court of conservative hacks..

Pulled over for riding solo in the HOV lane, this Texas woman immediately rose to her own defense by calling her unborn fetus a person and therefore, there's actually two people in the car!
Er, ah, she got the ticket:

Maybe Clarence will want to hear this one, too...

Inflation under and because of Joe Biden was at a whopping 9.1% Last Month

July 18, 2022: "What recession? America's banks reveal few signs of trouble"
"Results from JPMorgan Chase, Wells Fargo and Citigroup reveal that while Wall Street has been hit hard by the deep market slump, Main Street is humming along. Credit card spending still looks healthy. While banks are putting aside more money to cover bad loans, they aren't seeing significant problems yet."
"If you didn't look at anything else — you just looked at the bank numbers — you wouldn't be thinking there's a recession around the corner,..."
"Credit and debit card spending is up 15% year-over-year, JPMorgan said. While consumers are shelling out much more money on gas, travel and dining still jumped a "robust" 34%."

His administration green-lighted the project in March of 2017, yet the project remained bogged down in red tape. How can you cancel something that, from a practical viewpoint, never got started due to endless legislative, judicial, and bureaucratic roadblocks?
Not to mention the oil from it was destined to be refined and processed for export...

Typically, something along the lines of a whopping "8%" in the minds of a black and white with no shades of grey conservatives proves, beyond a shadow of doubt, that everything Biden did or what James Lacey stated is absolutely wrong and the "8%" proves it! For those who can think for themselves, understand the context of it as presented from a fact check by Reuters:

Let's talk the Science.

Posted By Rod Kaufman

I find the right wing conservative talking point of "when life begins" to be just that; a specious argument and not one of "let's talk the science" even though a con here or elsewhere thinks that it is. One can justifiably argue that life begins in a single human cell. Afterall, a cell is alive. And someone, anyone, including Richard, kills a lot of them every time they go digging for gold when they pick their noses. Or when a female menstruates, or when a biopsy is taken, or when a tumor, benign or malignant, is removed. 
I don't buy the so-called science argument at all. It's a non-science argument promoted as science by cons...

You might want to develop a more nuanced point of view. 
They kill living cells on a daily basis without giving it a second thought and with the same disregard that they have for the baby after its been delivered and dropped off at a local fire station...
