I'll just re-post my findings on some claims he made about climate-change articles in Time Magazine that turned out to be total lies.Unit2Sucks said:The only hurdle that matters to him is that it agrees with his narrative.

Google and read what Notre Dame professors of law say about Amy Coney Barrett. She is multi dimensional despite what the Dems will try to craft. She is the total package, not only as a person but as an educator and jurist. She knows full well what is coming. The only concern I have with the ramifications of Roe v. Wade I have are that we must keep that a woman's choice, but late term abortions areoung the nine month mark are absurd. Get your sh++ together before that.
8 unarmed Black men killed by the police in 2019 is a huge issue, but 5,597 late term (>21 weeks) abortions performed in the US is not an issue...
Did you even read the article or even have a basic understanding of pregnancy?
Pregnancy is 40 weeks. 21 weeks is no one's definition of late term. It said in the article that it isn't defined as late term. It merely said that there are only that many abortions 21 weeks or later. Late term abortions are a small subset of that small subset. And almost all of those are for health reasons.http://www.johnstonsarchive.net/policy/abortion/late_term_abortion_usa.htmlQuote:
This is not to say that late-term abortions in these countries are only conducted for health issues. Limited data from Australia suggest about half of late-term abortions there are for reasons other than fetal health or maternal physical health.
The increasing numbers of late-term abortions are accompanied in several countries (including Australia, Canada, Italy, Norway, the United Kingdom, and the United States) by increasing cases where the baby is delivered alive after the abortion and then either left to die or actively killed. This is why late-term abortions are increasingly identified as a human rights issue on behalf of the unborn childOnce again, you are being presumptuous here. Only half of the third trimester abortions are done for health reasons, and that proportion and overall numbers are likely to go up as restrictions on partial birth/late third trimester abortions are being lifted in many countries.Quote:
The problem is that anti abortion activists won't believe that people are having a medical emergency. No one goes through 40 weeks of pregnancy because they couldn't be bothered to call an Uber to get to the clinic
I used to be more on the side of "pro-choice" but the current political climate with the push to normalize late term/live birth abortions is a bit troubling.
This is a self published "study" (in other words, he wrote a bunch of bullshyte and posted it on a website), by a physicist with no expertise in the subject who is pro-life and hasn't distinguished himself in anything. It is hilarious how often you guys use supposed experts in one field as a source for a completely different field because you can't get statistics from actual experts to say what you want.
