![]() We live in a fucked up world, what do you all expect? At this rate the human race will be extinct within the next 50 years lmao. Not that im really surprised since pollution is at an all time high and we kill so many trees and animals that pretty soon we wont have any resources left.
But sure, lets continue to fuck it up by making bullshit and retarded laws and kill/arrest humans for no literal reason....

These politicians are seeing what is being supported and work towards that to have better chances of favorable ratings in their state. If 50 people support a piece of legislation and less than 10 are against it, a politician (for retaining their position) is better off going with the 50 people even if it's something harmful. If this was done in a different state, you'd probably see vastly different results.

![]() The morality aspect of the law in question is another part I am also rather concerned with.
From https://time.com/5591166/state-abortion-laws-explained/, the bill criminalizes women who desire to abort an unwanted pregnancy (either accidentally or through indecent means such as rape and incest). This law essentially acts as an unethical means to strip the freedom of choice for women with no intent to be a mother. |

the case that caused this thread bump absolutely disgusts me. I didn't even need to click the link to know that she was going to be black. fuck these racist, sexist people who create these "laws" she "initiated" the fight that caused someone else to shoot her...? and this is somehow her fault? this is some "you started it" 2nd grade bullshit the second amendment is clearly the most important right in that country. really fucked Last edited by mellon_collie; 06-27-2019 at 10:18 AM.. |

![]() these laws disproportionately affect women of colour, there are stats to back this up
turns out it didn't actually matter in this specific case but it's still my default assumption when I click something about these anti-abortion laws affecting people. cops are racist anyway so they will only use these fucked up laws on who they want to use them on but anyway not tryna derail this thread |

![]() I think Mahou means the sentiment implied by suspecting a victim is a certain race (black) before confirmation.
I don’t think Mellon meant it in a malicious way, and tried to say it from a place of empathy, considering statistics and articles like this (trigger warning: vox). Iirc Mahou is black himself and probably doesn’t appreciate the sentiment/association implied by a statement like that. I’m just trying to clarify my own understanding of the conflict at hand here; I want to understand where everyone is coming from. Though I suppose this all deviates from the topic at hand.

Sorry if what I said came across as such, given the context of the article which I read after I can see how you get that and I apologize
What I meant is that it's very frustrating to see these laws disproportionately affect some groups over and over again while not affecting others nearly as much. |
