It's Okay to let kids kill themselves with sugar but god forbid allowing a woman to engage in family planning by using birth control?

Do not take away sugared beverages from little kids. Rotting teeth obesity and diabetes is their choice and the choice of their parents. Gubment should not interfer in any way.

BUT stop women from having access to family planning or women's health clinics and make it a sin to use birth control and make it virtually impossible by closing all family planning clinics. That's fine. They say using birth control is murdering babies that would be born otherwise. Yes. I am not joking. That is what passes for their what they call "thinking". God help us one and all

    It is hard to have a conversation if it keeps jumping to another question.

    No one is for banning birth control. 

    Abortion is NOT birth control. The abortion pill has that name for a reason.

    Women can be prescribed BC drugs from a family doctor. Planned parenthood clinics are not needed for that.

    In theory ... Planned Parenthood is no longer necessary, after the ACA.
    It was to serve people who couldn't afford their own insurance.
    But allegedly, with the ACA everybody has insurance now.

    Everything supplied by PP before and after ACA was available at every County Health Clinic in the country.

    Having been in sample buildings of all 3 ... I wouldn't take my pet to a County Health Clinic.
    They are great examples of why one would NOT want government-run healthcare facilities.
    I know the local hotel rooms, including the "no tell motel", are cleaner.

    As an uninsured person, I have used County Health Clinics many times 7 different ones in 2 different states. I have NEVER seen a dirty clinic. If you seen a dirty one you should have reported it.

    Nobody cares.
    Few people even want to use the regular hospital, because it is so bad.
    The ER doesn't staff above LPN ... they have to call in anyone above that.
    And they pressure patients to take the LPN diagnosis - when they don't even take vitals.
    And if you have little or no insurance - they will keep you waiting hours in the waiting room, regardless of your condition.

    If you don't have a private doctor in this county - you ARE going to die if you have to use the "healthcare" system.

    If the hospital and county clinic is that bad in your area...that is sad. You should demand better from WA. 

    That is not the case where I live. I am LIVING proof that is not the case here. 

    I got sick last year. I thought it was a flu. I kept getting worse. I finally went to the doc. They thought it was a blockage and did a CT scan (again I am uninsured)  After the results they called me and told be to go directly to the ER. I was likely septic. I was in the hospital for 8 days. I am alive and have a large bill that I will likely be paying the rest of my life. I had no private doctor nor any insurance, private or otherwise.

    A real example of how bad the hospital is:

    On Thanksgiving my friend's sister had NINE seizures, in front of an OHSU Neurosurgeon and Fire Dept Paramedic, before the ambulance arrived to take her to the hospital.

    At the hospital, they took her to the waiting area for triage.  NOT to an ER exam room.
    The receptionist said someone would be with her "within the hour".  (That means between 60 and 90 minutes, in reality.)
    Thankfully, the Neurosurgeon showed his ID and demanded they admit her immediately.
    The LPN on duty tried to convince the patient to admit she had just suffered from vertigo, and told the Neurosurgeon to "stop interrupting".

    The Neurosurgeon had to call in staff from OHSU, and kick out the local hospital staff, to get adequate treatment for the patient.

    Now - legally, the Neurosurgeon can lose his license and be sued for malpractice for practicing without privileges at that hospital.  But if he had not stepped in, they would have delayed even the exam - putting the patient's life at risk.  The LPN would have "browbeat" the patient to go home, and charted that the patient had suffered vertigo.  The patient may well have died at home that day, and the hospital would have been clear - because the patient would have signed paperwork upon exit that they were seen and treated.

    Because it is not a state-run/owned hospital, there is nothing the state can do.
    Hospitals are certified by 1 of only 3 companies. 
    And you can bet they are on their best behavior when the auditors are present.

    That sounds like crap. 

    But the state is in charge of licensing of hospitals. If they do not have a license they are not open. 

    Here is the link to make a complaint to your state.

    No...I am not against them. I was just stating a fact. I am quite neutral on the subject.

    Children are precious.  COMMODOTIES.  According to the Evangelical RIGHT WING.     They are the PAWNS that make the religion they profess to worship and the party they adhere to totally meritorious.  

    Without out kids?  How could they ever pass bills to control America?  Kids.  We can't live without them.  Unless they threaten to take our guns.  Then we can expend a few here and there.    Unless one of OUR family members are raped by some black man.  Then watch all the knives and pills come out to  excise that demon spawn.  I am sure there are more hidden abortions in the Evangelical religion than there are legitimate births.  That is how phoney and hypocritical they all are.  It's okay, as long as they do it.

    But, I digress.  They love children as long as abortion and their control over religion and party are at issue.  When kids are brought into the world, they had better learn to shoot straight early because the gun laws are not going to protect them. 
    And forget about BROWN kids. Those kids don't count at all. Take a look at the border.  

    Need I go on?    By the way, this drawing is inaccurate.  IMAGINE TRUMP asking ANYONE if they MINDED something he did.  SURE.  The bully would step on the necks of the drowned victims so he doesn't wet his shoes.

    A racist would support abortion. More black people are killed via abortion than any other method.

    Racism  has nothing to do with it.  Unless you are a sicko who thinks browns should be eliminated and not whites or males versus females, or some bigoted idea.  

    But abortion is just excising a sperm and embryo.  Not the government's business.  No matter what side you are on. This post was edited by WM BARR . =ABSOLUTE TRASH at December 18, 2019 1:54 AM MST

    I am not the one who brought race into it.

    Once you get to the abortion stage...we are long past the individual sperm and egg.  This post was edited by my2cents at December 17, 2019 1:27 PM MST

    You know that I am not pro-abortion?  I don't think it is right.  BUT?  I do not think I get to choose what someone else does with that right.  You do not get to choose the life of another woman's unborn child.  That is not your call. That is between that woman and GOD.  And my GOD?  He would never EVER forsake any form of life, unborn or born.  So, we sort of agree.  

    And it has nothing to do with racism.  But who cares. I'm interested in the point I just posed.

    Ok. I understand that position completely. I had that position for a decade when I was young. (Teens- early 20s)
    I had disagreed about being anti abortion with exceptions. (My friends had this position and said it is because it is a baby) My thought was with the exception it is still a baby. And it was not my decision. 
    After having my first child, I reevaluated my position.

    Well said m'dear. The deadhead with his head DOWN asking anyone anything is ludicrous and blasphemous. He takes he commands he demands he orders and he don't take no for an answer without killing the naysayer either literally or figuratively. SIGH. Thank you for your thought analysis with which I completely agree! Happy Wednesday to thee Sharon! :)
