After-Birth Abortions

- I don't get the sudden "outrage" all over the media, a (small) group of people has been advocating this since forever. Nothing new here. Save the outrage for when it gets turned into a law, if ever. 2) Isn't this politics and flamebait?
I didn't mean it to be. I just saw the article and decided to share it.

This has already been discussed here[^].

Right. Whatever it is, it shouldn't be here.

Don't. (Regardless of what it is.)

Blow it out your ear. It's not for you to decide what I do or don't post.

I don't get the uproar over this. People post news items all the time in the lounge. At the top of the loung it states "For lazing about and discussing anything in a software developer's life that takes your fancy." This "took my fancy" - so I posted it. What's the big deal???

I didn't even know there was a 'soapbox' until this thread got moved. Just curious, who moved it?

The big deal (honestly I don't care as such, I was just expressing an expectation) is that it's inviting a flame fest, regardless of what your intentions were (but let's be honest, your post doesn't look like you were about to nitpick their grammar). That isn't even officially what the SB is for, and certainly not what the the Lounge is for.

"flame-fest"? I'm not even sure what that means. When I posted, I guess I thought that no one in their right mind would support this. I honestly expected people to post things like "I agree", not "Don't post that here".

I've seen enough threads moved that I got the pattern, this thread never really stood a chance in the Lounge. As for universal agreement on this matter, I wouldn't be too sure. Some people will disagree just to stir things up, and then it would take maybe a whole minute before the thread descends into a flamefest, because this sort of thing tends to evoke emotions.

Why would you imagine that just because you don't think this is right, everyone else must also think so? That is both narrow and ignorant. Who made you judge and jury? :thumbsdown:

No need for that.

Correct; however, it can be decided that you have posted in the wrong place: don't take it so personally - it really isn't a big deal to get your post moved to a more appropriate forum - it actually helps as you're more likely to get a lot of responses - both good and bad!

Get off youre pedestal. There's a thing called "Common Sense". Did you read the responses by readers in the article? My opinion is the same as theirs. That's not judgemental, narrow or ignorant. It's common sense, where the operative word is "common". Most people don't support the idea of killing babies. That doesn't make me judgemental. It makes me normal.

So, in other words, you're saying that you have the right to choose?

Yes. I have the right to choose to post or not.
