In May of 2013, Texas had 41 licensed abortion clinics to serve its more than 5 million women of reproductive age. On Monday, if a major provision of a new anti-abortion law goes into effect, the state will be left with only seven clinics--all concentrated in urban areas of the sprawling state...

Or you'll stomp your widdow foot?

Actually 6th and 7th, but 2000 is easier to conceptualize for those who think that Muslims sprang up out of nowhere on 9/11.

In what way?

In order to do that, you'd have to learn something about history, which is all to the good. Otherwise, you just end up looking like a fool.

Judging by these posts, one would be more likely to come to the opposite conclusion.

Once again you make extraordinary efforts to miss the point. The point is not to excuse any of this but to acknowledge that it's nothing new. And if one makes no effort to understand how we got where we are, it is unlikely that any proposals to change the situation will have any lasting...

Ever hear of the Ottoman Empire? The Crusades? As long as you remain ignorant of history, you'll continue to make ignorant remarks.

So if as you say a zygote is a human being and an abortion kills it, should a woman who aborts a zygote or miscarries a zygote be subject to charges of felony murder?

Yes, you did. And I asked "Therefore, if the zygote is aborted, a human being is being killed?"

There's an SNL sketch here somewhere, I'm almost sure.

So, in short, you're saying that, yes, a zygote is a human being. Therefore, if the zygote is aborted, a human being is being killed?

Is a zygote a human being?

A kindergarten student in Pennsylvania brought a loaded revolver to school on Monday, according to authorities. Police in Aliquippa, a city northwest of Pittsburgh, said the gun was found in the 5-year-old's backpack after a friend told a teacher about it. The family of the child who brought...
