Trump plans on accomplishing this by stopping wire transfers of money from the United States to Mexico. This means Mexicans won't be able to send funds back home. They pay for the wall if they want wire transfers again..
Unless they find a way around that, like mailing it back home.
 
Late term abortions are virtually always for babies who were wanted, but who are already dead in utero or unlikely to survive birth (or long after birth). Once again, people who oppose this almost never know what they're talking about. They think women are just getting late term abortions for fun.

Then would it be OK to outlaw them in the case of "for fun" (or other emotional or financial but not medical reasons)?

There is a difference between a baby, a human outside the womb, and a fetus inside the womb. A baby is a human with rights, a fetus is not, and should never be. It is a potential human, to be sure, but it is NOT a human, it is a fetus. And yes, I draw a very hard distinction here.

If you want fetus rights, them pass them as so, but don't call them human rights because you're mislabeling the subject of the law.
That's not science either. At some point (presumably before birth) the fetus becomes human. Because a premie isn't considered "not human".

There has to be a quantifiable measure that isn't just where it is.

Is there any compromise on this? Because if there isn't then neither side are "extremists". It's just one way or the other.

That's already illegal in almost the entire country, so what purpose would a new law serve?

Science and law aren't the same; laws need to have wiggle room because they can't account for every scenario explicitly.
 
The end of Obamacare
And replace it with what without people losing their coverage?

The end of the unrestricted murder of the unborn
I hope you plan on finding a way to deal with all these unwanted babies. You aren't going to magically create happy families by banning abortions, you're just going to send abortion into the shadows like it was in the past. I know you haven't thought about this at all, it's just a talking point for the simple minded. But the blood of actual women will be on your hands.

The end of criminal illegal aliens murdering our citizens and hiding out in sanctuary cities
So Trump is starting Pre-cog? That didn't work out for Tom Cruise.

The end of the war on American Energy
Bring back steam power!

The end of suing nuns over birth control
They probably shouldn't sell it if they don't want anything to do with it.

The end of murdering the police
Once again, pre-cog.

The end of forcing schools to have boys in girls showers
Since trans girls are girls and trans boys are boys, there isn't a problem. Except in the mind of bigots and the ignorant.

The end of Global warming BS
So you're a climate scientist too. You must be really smart, that's why you're here pulling a list of delusions out of your ass.

I could go on but you get the point.
I guess that was as far as you could think without getting a headache.
 
Yeah, I remember how Picard went to the Romulans and said, "listen, we're gonna build a wall, a yuuuuge wall, it'll be the best wall, and I'm gonna make Romulus pay for it!"

Yeah, he was all like, "The neutral zone is racist. We're all part of like, the same galaxy man." I remember that scene. So inspirational.

morality BS.

Morality is literally the worst, figuratively speaking.

I wouldn't have to suffer through your posts or the posts of your fellow like minded posters.

That's some hardcore nihilism. Very edgy.

The whole point of the Federation is to eventually get everybody on board. One day--Klingons, Romulans, Cardassians, everybody will be waving the blue-and-white banner. ;)
 
I read it. I wish others would treat me with the same respect that I treat them. But one side is clearly against that because of who I am.
I'm sorry, but I've read through your recent posts and I don't really think you treat others that don't think the same as you with respect. If anything you've replied with disdain at best.
 
Then I would give you the same advice - might find a safe room while this blows over. You're going to be exposed to ideas you don't like in the real world.
You aren't getting rid of me that easily and I'm not afraid of your "ideas" because I know the facts are on my side. It doesn't matter how many people believe in your nonsense because belief does not equal truth. You're going to have to try a lot harder than using the words of simpletons to convince me of anything.

I'm not saying you should be denied rights. I'm just tearing about your terrible excuses for arguments. Respect isn't automatically agreeing with you over everything. I know you think that your ignorance is equal to facts, but they aren't. You're going to have to try a lot harder.
 
Is there anything that either side is going to compromise on? Are there any common goals?

Or is it all "Not my president"?
 
I thought Republicans weren't for outlawing something because there's always a black market for that.

Republicans haven't set the best example with that over the past 8 years.
