Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Republicans need to drop Abortion fight

And quickening begins in weeks 16 to 25.

Like I said earlier, I hold with the old English Law.

Well said.

And that's why we need to just shut up about it. They are gonna do what they want anyway. Why lose election after election standing on an arguement that will never be won.

On the flip side it doesn’t matter which party wins if they don’t support the right policies.

See gun grabbing establishment republicans.

You would have to be a really bad Republican to come anywhere near a democrat.

There’s lots of them.

They’re typically just a few years behind the democrats. Bill Clinton was a leftist President at the time but was more “republican” than most republicans in office today. JFK was more conservative than most republican office holders today by a long shot.

Edit

Unintended pun.

It’s impossible to legislate morality

Rush used to say that. I liked listening to Rush but he eventually stopped saying it.

I think that he realized the left normalizes and defines morality through legislation and media all of the time.

Look at our society and what most of it believes and excepts at true.

Damned thing I ever heard.


Thank God we killed all them babies cause some of them might have been mischievous.

Heck...some of them may not have had two loving parents that were so loving that they would have just as soon seen them flushed than seen them alive.


Right?

I can absolutely believe that abortion is murder and also recognize that it is a state issue that conservatives do not need to legislate at a Federal level. I do not see how one belief negates the other.

Abortion is the leading cause of death, beating war, heart disease, cancer and drug overdose.

All you commies who are pro-choice should be happy to know our perverted society had increased abortions nationwide since Roe was over-turned.

Revel in that.

Absolutely true! I believe abortion is a morale issue and government has no constitutional authority to be involved in morale issues per the First Amendment. The penalty for immorality is not immediate but it is permanent.

You sound like a libertarian. It’s a nice idea but it has never worked in reality. Our Founders absolutely made moral decisions in terms of what they believed was best for society. From “gay rights” to abortion. Some of it was explicit and some implicit.

One of the founding fathers said something to the effect of our constitution is for a moral people. It is wholly inadequate for any other. That is true and there is no doubt morality plays an important role in society.

So we shouldn’t have laws against murder? After all, it’s just a moral issue.

Theft? Moral issue; abolish laws.

Isn’t everything pertaining to law is a moral issue? A collective expression of the values of a society yes, but moral for certain.

Does anyone REALLY believe that we can’t legislate morality? Seriously?

Yall don’t think that we had less marijuana use when it was illegal?

Law is an expression of the values of a society. If you’re willing to shrug off murder of innocent and defenseless babies I question where exactly you think govt’s legitimate role in society really is??

This all seems completely and utterly insane to me. So many self professing conservatives won’t even stand for the right of people who are alive to stay alive because there are people out there who think it’s their right to kill them by defining them as something g other than alive.

Absolutely insane.

Scientists can’t even define life how can you hold them up as able to define consciousness?

Talk about the blind leading the blind.

I had heard that Ga had an increase in abortions last year after RvW, but it did drop in the black community. I hadn't fact checked it but was just listening to Patriot radio and it was mentioned that nationally in 2023 we had more abortions than any year since 2012. I thought to myself when overturned, this may actually increase abortions if put back at the state level. It appears it has, why are libs so up in arms? Wouldn't they like these numbers?

I am pro-life, do not sanction abortions, but do believe there should be exceptions made in the cases of rape, incest, and the endangerment of the life of the mother. But, more importantly, I believe it is one of those things in which the punishment should be left up to God, and make no mistake about it, He will be the one that has the final word in the matter. Abortion is one of those things that both sides of the political aisle want to use as a means to appease their supporters. Democrats want to be able to tell their liberal women voters that they believe in a womans right to choose, whereby Republicans use it to drum up support among the conservative Christians.

I cannot speak for the liberals and where they place abortion on their list, but I honestly believe most of the Conservatives I know are much more concerned with such things as the open bordes, the war on guns, energy overregulation, the economy, the LGBQT crap, and the erosion of our basic rights. Those are the things I want to see a politician stand up for. If a politician tells me that he is anti-abortion first and nothing else is as important, I'll not vote for them unless there is no other option.
