If what you are saying is even true (a quick google showed it's not), this seems like it's likely a specific case of moderation and not censorship.

Except if it's a COVID vaccination.

That's very much a false equivalency as pregnancy and miscarriage is not contagious.

And you have just ensured this fight will continue.

I wouldn't compromise on my bodily autonomy, neither should women. It's simple. You making it more complicated is what ensures this fight will continue.

An liberals are not honest about caring. They are arguing because of a few bad cases all abortion should be legal, instead of using this as a reasonable compromise. So long as those are the two choices a lot less humans die if all abortion is banned even if some mothers die as well. (Do not say a fetus isn't a human - that might work for you but it doesn't apply to anyone against abortion and you just look like an idiot for not recognizing what they see as an obvious fact and we get nowhere).

If you want to support a compromise: most of what you need to do is shut up everyone who will only accept their extreme position.

Stop trying to introduce nuance to a topic where there is none. It should be entirely left up to the woman and her doctor.

As someone living in WI who got barraged with ads from both sides, that wasn't the messaging anyone saw AFAICT. The biggest issue on people's minds was the economy. Dem messaging on economic policy was nonexistent. Women's healthcare isn't an issue that resonates with young (read: unmarried) men. It should, but it doesn't. There could have been some "look out for your wife" messaging, but there wasn't.

There's a lot of people in the comments parroting whatever narrative they cooked up for 2016, but the reality is that both candidates' approaches were wildly different this time around.

The "abortion" issue is very poor marketing and I don't understand why this has never been corrected. It's not about unwanted children, it's more about the 1/5 chance a woman has of miscarrying and what happens after (along with the array of other pregnancy related issues).

I learned quite a lot by viewing the source of this delightfully clean and spartan website.

You don't need a DOCTYPE tag?

You don't need a head tag?

You don't need to declare the charset?

The body tag has a "background" attribute?

The HTML "center" tag still works?

marquee still works too

In what way would that have benefited Tesla more than the current situation?

The problem is not using drugs. The problem is committing crimes while using drugs. Some people can use drugs and avoid crime. Others use drugs and commit crime.

Therefore, you arrest criminals, and offer them jail or treatment that they must follow or they go straight to jail.

Camping on a city sidewalk should be a crime. This is a public space used by everyone, not just one person to make a random house on. Children use sidewalks which are a public good. If someone uses drugs and camps on the sidewalk, they should be arrested and offerred jail or treatment.

You forgot those who commit crimes in an effort to use drugs. I think treatment inside jail (or some controlled environment) is probably your best bet. If you have someone who's addiction is clouding their judgement, they might say anything just to stay out of jail, but how do you get them to follow through?

I think those are what I have in my yard as I was not seeing any issues with them. No weird smell, shoots, or lifespan problems.
TheHypnotist · 2 years ago
Right. Mine was planted almost 40 years ago by the previous owner and does not smell or produce fruit.
