A woman’s body is her own except when she is carrying another woman as in a baby girl then that woman’s life is removed from existence through murder?

FIANNA FÁIL HAS introduced legislation that would ban tattoos and intimate piercings for people under the age of 18.
The bill was brought forward by Mary Butler TD who said that “getting a tattoo is a lifelong decision” and should only be made by adults.
Many tattoo parlours enforce this rule themselves but the legislation would make it illegal not to.
Butler also argued that intimate piercings could lead to health issues. Ears, noses, navels and eyebrows are not covered by the legislation.
But is it a good idea or is it a case of being over-protective of children?
Poll: Should tattoos and intimate piercings be banned for under 18s?

@Alois Irlmaier: Yikes!
“A woman’s body is her own except when she is carrying another woman as in a baby girl then that woman’s life is removed from existence through murder?”
What in the name of “god” did you just write?!?!?!
“A woman’s body is her own”
Yes it is.
” A woman’s body is her own except when she is carrying another woman”
If she is carrying another woman,why wouldn’t it still be her body? She probably would have serious back injuries for carrying that woman around the joint for 9 months.Cray cray!
“A woman’s body is her own except when she is carrying another woman as in a baby girl” When does the woman magically change back to a girl ? This “story” is getting even crazier!!
“A woman’s body is her own except when she is carrying another woman as in a baby girl then that woman’s life is removed from existence through murder?” So lets get this straight.. the woman who magically becomes a girl- ends up killing the woman-even though-the woman carried her on her back for 9 months..Cray cray!
@Francis Mc Carthy: Call it by its name, too many try to excuse actions by changing the meaning of words?
@Clon Lad: You know everyone was born from their mothers and what do you call us then, it isn’t fetuses is it???
What are babies but children, it isn’t hard. You kill anyone and you take the rest of their life from them.
