The Greens and the campaign for a woman’s right to choose : Comments

By Sylvia Hale, published 21/9/2017

Its defeat, when every member of the Liberal and National parties voted against it, ensured that NSW would continue to be out of step with modern medical practice and community opinion.

Fascinating history, Ms Hale.
With birth rates so low these days, the wealthy could maybe pay women to take babies to term and help with their educational and healthcare expenses in the interest of fairness.

 A “woman (has) the right to determine her reproductive destiny” with contraception or abstinence. There is no 'right' to use abortion to cover carelessness or alley cat morals.

Ok so lets try to be fair here?
The women's right to choose...
Can we have a fair discussion or what?

So you've been fight for the right to choose since the 70's and what exactly are you complaining about now, that you want some access to some abortion drug. Maybe it makes the procedure less invasive or traumatic for the mother / terminator... Is it ok to say that?

When does a man get the right to choose?

If a woman can be pro-active and use contraceptives, and a man can be pro-active and use a condom; and lets say both screw up and fail to take responsibility and conception occurs...

Does a man have the right to say...
Nope, piss it off; I was only in it for the root.
Even if you (the woman) want to keep it too bad, I say no.
Does a man have that right?

I mean that's what you women are saying isn't it?
That's the right you're asking for - to kill the mans child at will without any consideration for his wishes?
Are you willing to give that right equally to men?

That if a man says take the damn pill, you'll do it?
Doubtful.
Are you not hypocritically asking for a right that you are not willing to share equally with men?

Another case of total bs
Back to the drawing board girls...

Yes, woman have a right to chose!

Nobody chooses to be raped or subject to incest, that culminates in unwanted pregnancy! And consequently have their lives and career options etc, stolen from them! Yes contraception is easier, yet some men refuse to put on a rubber! Even where they could be spreading HIV/Aids!

And there are times, when choice is removed by medical conditions and life threatening genetic and immune response cellular rejection! Date rape is far more common than reported, yet we still fuss over, over the counter, the morning after pill!

As alway, there are a number of loud, vulgar, banner waving, self appointed judges/religious bigots/flat earthers/stonge age morons, most if not all, with absolutely no medical qualifications whatsoever!

Trying to prevent womenfolk, even those experiencing very real medical complications, from exercising an inherent right to chose! Be they green, blue or red or rainbow warriors!

Extraordinary ! Two pages on the history of The Greens love affair with abortion...and never once was the word BABY used ! A classic example of the old adage "All social engineering is preceded by verbal engineering"
Extraordinary also, that in recounting the history of the abortifacient drug RU486 legislation, inaccurately as it happens (the late Tasmanian Brian Harradine was not a DLP Senator, he was an Independent, having been expelled from the Labor Party ...AGAINST the wishes of the late ALP great, Gough Whitlam..of what else is Ms Hale ignorant?) she omits to mention the subsequent reported death of an Australian woman from the human pesticde RU486. Just "collateral damage"?
The Greens Mehreen Faruqi's bill was rejected because a majority of MP's recognised every abortion kills a baby ...and may well signal the beginning of a world wide trend to end the war on unborn babies. After all, Donald Trump didn't win the last US Presidential election. Hillary Clinton lost it over this very issue. Abortion !
Donald Trump may have made Hillary Clinton's skin crawl when she debated him before the 2016 elections, but she herself made the skin of enough people crawl to lose the election in the final debate.She was a gonner when Donald Trump said " I think it’s terrible if you go with what Hillary is saying, in the ninth month you can take the baby and rip the baby out of the womb of the mother just prior to the birth of the baby. Now you can say that that’s okay and Hillary can say that that’s okay, but it’s not okay with me. Because based on what she’s saying and based on where she’s going and where she’s been, you can take the baby and rip the baby out of the womb on the ninth month on the final day. And that’s not acceptable ". Her obfuscation, mendacity and support for late term partial birth abortions was a bridge too far for more than just a basket full of deplorables. Hillary Clinton lost the US Presidency in that defining moment.
