All very true, but I doesn't change my point that anti-contraception legislation is not just anti-women.

Good.
If people have money and are willing to pay for something, they are going to be able to get it. If you can afford to hire a hit man, you will be able to do it. But by criminalizing activites we can make them harder to accomplish.
Yes indeed, let's go back to the good old days of back alley - hair pin - abortions!!!

So you don't kill people because it's illegal?Last edited by alva; April 22, 2004, 12:26.Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing?
Then why call him God? - Epicurus

True. As last night demonstrated, condoms make excellent bongs
Although I would have thought a condom either wouldn't have enough volume, or would be hard to pressurize enough to stretch it. However pressure could be a good thing when smoking, if a little hard to keep contained until ready.
I have to say, as far as bongs go, I think the plain bottle used at your party was better than the easter egg, it had more volume, and you could see how much you were filling it. Add to that the fact it didn't melt, was easier to cool, and seemed to have more effect, and you have a better bong. Although a clear water bong used with vodka, but actually using a bong, not a vodka bottle and straws, would be the best, IMHO.

What does that have to do with the point though? Just a little side note slipped in there?Smile

So what. The "right" isn't absolute to begin with and if doctors don't wish to provide the service, that's not a problem the legal system should deal with other than to insure the safety of the doctors that care to preform the procedure.

Doctors don't want to provide the service because they don't want to be subject to boycotts or fear for their lives. Two docotors have been killed, several have been bombed, many more are subject to death threats.

Yeah -- let's hear it for denying women the right to autonomy over their own bodies.A lot of Republicans are not racist, but a lot of racists are Republican.

Yes. I've heard this arguement before too. Stop protesting what you believe is a moral wrong or I'll go mutilate myself with a coat hanger. I thought it was stupid then as well.
I think it hold some water. Like that guy who OD'd because he thought the doctor was underprecribing him so he ordered the drugs from Canada. If the option exists people will consider it and weigh the pros and cons. In situations such as this, as well as health/money/crime/etc., they will sometimes make a bad decission. It is the responsibility of the state to ensure the well-being of the public, especially when a viable option exists... or at least that's what the socialists tell me... despite moral implications.
