Only a disgusting and cruel country would force a child to bring a pregnancy to term. And by default, if a child is pregnant, she was raped, since she is too young to consent. What many people in the forced birth movement don't seem to realize is that many girls will experience at least one situation where a grown man attempts something sexual. It's not because of bad parenting or a girl who is dressed provocatively. It's just that there are some sick individuals out there. That's the world we live in.

NZers must be pretty darn smart to elect and re-elect PM Ardern. I really like her. Would probably enjoy living there but...not in the cards.

How are my health care decisions, yours or those of a woman in Houston or Omaha or St. Paul any concern of Alito - or anybody else?? He does not know me or you or any of those women - and what we decide to do with our lives and our heath will never affect him al all! I really don't care about his personal health decisions, either - why should he care about mine??
