Brian Kurcaba (R): "Obviously rape is awful, [...] What is beautiful is the child that could come fr - Polidicks

[QUOTE=SweetSwifter;47092534]Yeah, I agree, when a woman who for example is already financially strained gets raped, she should totally have a baby from the man who raped her as a constant reminder that it happened, and on top of it a baby who she'd never be able to afford the proper care for. How stupid can you get?[/QUOTE] Who are you to argue with Gods will? You shall be Smited! Smiten? Smote? Smoted!

[QUOTE=Phil5991;47092543]Imagine being a rape apologist. "If soldiers didn't rape conquered peoples in ancient times, today's population wouldn't be as genetically diverse as it is today.

[QUOTE=NiandraLades;47093380]Imagine being like a kid or hell even adult and knowing you were born out of rape, it just doesn't feel fair on either involved. I honestly imagine something like that would cause a lot of mental anguish.[/QUOTE] it puts a lot of feelings of guilt and being unwanted on the child, for sure

[quote]"I think that even when life begins in that horrible situation of rape, that it is something that God intended to happen," Mourdock said in a debate.[/quote] Now not to stir the whole religion argument, I am solely criticising this one guys stance. I understand that most believers (fuck it, 99.99% of them) firmly believe god is against rape, and that it is people misusing the free will given to them by god, and I am fine with that - the stance is perfectly reasonable and you can believe whatever you like, I don't mind, as long as you're not preaching to me about the virtues of believing in a/many/no/durum wheat based god. This guy, however, actively appears to worship a god he thinks plans for people to get raped and have a kid as a response to that rape. I mean at least the Aztecs were trying to ensure that the sun rose when they did their thing. Or maybe he doesn't really, and was just trying to shoehorn it in for voters, I don't know.

[QUOTE=NiandraLades;47093380]Imagine being like a kid or hell even adult and knowing you were born out of rape, it just doesn't feel fair on either involved. I honestly imagine something like that would cause a lot of mental anguish.[/QUOTE] That's where i came from, my mum dumped my "dad" for various reasons and he came back round for ~revenge~, she is hugely anti-abortion- so here i am. - i only found out when i was around 15 years old but i think my mum struggled with it based on the way she treated me compared to my brothers, my twin brother was always treated fine, but we aren't identical and unlike him, i actually have a resemblance to the dude. Just let me make it clear that i am not against abortion in any way, just because my mum made that choice doesn't mean its the right choice for everyone.

[QUOTE=ImperialGuard;47093334]I can see what he means in a really roundabout way ("even in something so terrible, something beautiful can happen"), but that's still ridiculously retarded.[/QUOTE] Not exactly. This is supposedly his view on why pregnancy from sexual assault/rape should not be exempted from an anti-abortion bill that bans abortions after 20 weeks of pregnancy.

[QUOTE=Megadave;47093377]Neither one is better than the other, Republican's have good people, democrat's have good people. Why either of them have people at all floors me, but to lump them into groups can just cause fucking chaos. I've burnt myself many times on that.[/QUOTE] At their best, each is decent, or rarely even great. At their worst, though, Republicans are much worse than Democrats could ever hope to be. What have Democrats done that's as bad as excusing rape? ([I]Relatively[/I] recently, though. After the parties switched ideologies. The old Democratic party used to support slavery while the Republicans didn't, but this was before they switched, when the Democrats were conservatives and Republicans were liberals.)

[QUOTE=proch;47093572]That way of thinking is extremely ignorant. More so than the article.[/QUOTE] It would be if the Republican party wasn't infamous for this sort of thing.

[QUOTE=proch;47093572]That way of thinking is extremely ignorant. More so than the article.[/QUOTE] Opposing contraception and abortion by any means necessary is a keystone Republican policy. If anyone here is ignorant it's you.

Childbirth is a beautiful thing. Being a single parent, financial instability, and emotional scarring and trauma to both parties isn't. Saying you can't get an abortion after being raped because the childbirth would be beautiful is like saying you can't extinguish a fire from an arson on a school because the flames are pretty. I mean yeah, you're right, but literally nothing else after or before is.

[QUOTE=RetaDepa;47092529][url=http://goprapeadvisorychart.com/]Just another one to add to the chart[/url][/QUOTE] So what they're saying is, rape is like lemons.

[QUOTE=Jitterz;47093631]Who are you to argue with Gods will? You shall be Smited! Smiten? Smote? Smoted![/QUOTE] But maybe gods will is for her to get an abortion and become an anti-rape advocate and women's rights advocate improving the lives of millions We cannot know, just like the classic star trek episode where saving one pacifist causes the allies to loose ww2, we cannot predict gods plan anymore than we can predict the butterfly effect so we shouldn't try and instead worry about the individual who has been raped and what they want instead of some grand cosmic or temporal scheme

No really, science is on our side this time guys, so you liberals can stick it!"[/QUOTE] Funny you mentioned that. Ever heard of the Rape of Sabine? Some dude wrote an article about how Roman soldiers raping Sabine women saved Western civilization. He defended their actions. It was a pretty disgusting read as you could imagine.

Jesus Christ, how does this guy still have a political career? Coming from someone who lives in Australia, I can't fathom how someone could say something like this and get away with it. If anyone said that in Australia their political career would be over in 2-3 days max.

Why is it that the Republican party is always being complete uttershit idiots all the time? I mean sure, I've heard some bad stuff from the Democrats aswell but the Republicans always takes the prize for the most dumbest shit ever spewed from a human mouth. It's like they still live in the 1920s.

[QUOTE=proch;47096676]You're completely wrong, and demonizing a whole political party is very ignorant, especially in a two-party system, not to mention it's extremely echo-chambery to boot.[/QUOTE] No one here said that every single republican is bad, nor did they say every democrat is good. However, on social issues like these, Republicans tend to be antiabortion and anticontraceptive, way more often than Democrats.
