That would probably explain why you’re so bothered by it.

Go back and look at your posts. Try to be objective (I know it will be a huge stretch for you). Then, think again if its the people you are attacking who are showing ignorance with their comments.

And so you know, this is coming for someone who is on the same side of this amendment as you.

I’d have to say the “if it’s God’s will” crowd would let the mother die.

This country clearly was founded on the principle of Separation of Church and State. You shouldn’t base your facts solely on what Rush Limbaugh or some other moron tells you. Pick up a history book sometime. I promise, you will be enlightened!

Oh abortion, you’re right. A woman’s right to one is not SPECIFICALLY spelled out in the Constitution. The argument is, a woman has a right to govern over her own body. A man has the right to govern over his too. And that’s as it should be. Do your really wants to hand the rights to your own body over to the State? Are you really that stupid?

Jeremie, going back to what we had before Roe v. Wade is simply not an option. Those were not the best of times! (Again, pick up a book. You might have a change of heart!).

But I’m not fond of abortion. I don’t know anyone pro-choice that is. It seems neither side wants to get together and work this out. THAT is what I don’t understand. Abortion wouldn’t even be an issue if they did. It’s a case of “all or nothing.”

It may be called the Land of the Free… but it’s filled with people who spend so much time, energy and money trying to rule over other people. What a fucking joke.

He’s on his third marriage

He has been convicted of child abuse. He beat his girlfriends son (he’s now married to her)
He frequented strip bars while married with children

Go to his house with protest signs that call him out on his adultery.
“Bob is an adulterer”
“Bob is a child abuser”
“Bob loves to commit adultery”

Call this guy out for who he really is.

And a big Congrats! to you and your wife. You certainly have been blessed.

Luckily, through perseverance, many injections of progesterone, and just good old true grit, we received news that she became pregnant, and we now have a beautiful daughter, who is the absolute light of our lives.

My deep concern is that giving a microscopic embryo constitutional rights would limit or prohibit families who are currently in the situation my wife and I were in and not allow them to receive this type of treatment (IVF) as a family-building option. As the embryo would potentially be placed at risk during the procedure, this could mean that couples who are simply attempting to have a family could be committing instead what would be a criminal violation.

By the same token, we also have remaining frozen embryos in the event that we’d like to continue having children. What would become of them? A friend who also went through IVF and also has extra embryos that are frozen asked me, “If I don’t pay the bill to keep them frozen, does that mean I go to jail?” It’s a completely absurd question, and it sounds somewhat ridiculous, but the more I thought about it, the more concerned I became about this amendment and its far-reaching implications.

Let’s keep all assisted reproductive technology options on the table so that those who experience infertility can have a shot a building their own families.

For my part, I will be voting NO on Amendment 48, and I urge all Colorado voters to do the same!

We would do well to consider that instead of referring to the point of view that a woman should not have the right to choose as “anti-abortion,” it would be more accurate the refer to it as “forced or coerced birth.” This change in terminology exposes the lie of passive opposition to a woman’s right to choose and actively describes and assigns responsibility for the intentional violation of a woman’s right to control her own life and body.
