    We decided as a society that you can kill your baby up until the time it is born. We have determined that those people are not people until personhood is magically confirmed by the vaginal canal. It’s crazy, but that’s the way it is.

    Last night on the town hall Bernie Sanders was asked a question on healthcare by a woman who is seven months pregnant. She said she wanted to know about healthcare because of her soon to be baby. It is so odd that on the one hand they can see that as a baby which implies it is a human, at the very same time lots of democratic states are passing laws allowing a woman to abort that very same bunch of cells.

    One of the problems we have, as a group, is that we care about unborn infants. It is one of the topics that we get divided over, again and again. I’ve already been born, so I would rather focus on my own rights instead of worrying about an unwanted child that has nothing to do with me, and may otherwise end up sucking up significant tax resources. It is interesting to me though, that many who are fervently opposed to abortion are perfectly fine with starting more wars.

    By extension of that thought anyone who "otherwise end up sucking up significant tax resources" can be killed.

    Personally I can care less if someone gets an abortion, as long as the tax payer didn't have to subsidize it.
    I am part of that power which eternally wills evil, and eternally works good.

    I'll never understand the mentality of folks who are willing to give up one person's right to life and liberty just to protect another person's right to commit murder and not be inconvenienced. Abortion should be considered wrong and a violation of our ideals; when you can declare any group to not have a right to life or liberty, that thinking can easily be spread to other groups. I can use my guns to defend myself and my family; an unborn child has no such ability.
    It's f*****g great, putting holes in people, all the time, and it just puts 'em down mate, they drop like sacks of s**t when they go down with this.

    In few places has the effect been felt more powerfully than in the sprawling 9th Circuit, which covers California and eight other states. Because of Trump’s success in filling vacancies, the San Francisco-based circuit, long dominated by Democratic appointees, has suddenly shifted to the right, with an even more pronounced tilt expected in the years ahead.

    Trump has now named 10 judges to the 9th Circuit — more than one-third of its active judges — compared with seven appointed by President Obama over eight years.

    “Trump has effectively flipped the circuit,” said 9th Circuit Judge Milan D. Smith Jr., an appointee of President George W. Bush.
    Shifted to the right or shifted to the Constitution?

    Unfortunately that is true.

    My bad, I thought we were talking about the 2020 election and not the 9th. Related, but not the main court issue. Considering the BS that comes out of the 9th, if you can get less crazy out of it, there is less chance of it disagreing with other Circuits and therfore less chance getting to SCOTUS.

    And unfortunately for us, less Lefty poking the SCOTUS bear means less smackdowns of the lunacy.
