Those who propose more abortion should do a quick Google Image Search for aborted foetus to see just what it is they’re proposing.
A new bill aimed at decriminalising abortion in Ireland will be debated by the Dáil tomorrow.

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?

@fitzrik: Let me guess, you mean a late term abortion, not the vast majority that occur prior to 12 weeks, right?
Do you people think we’re so uninformed? Sheesh!
@Tricia Golden: I’ve always been more moved by the images of the women who’ve died from self induced abortions.But that is just moi.
@Tricia Golden: yes I do. The babys heart beats at 6 weeks. So don’t kill that human heart.
Pro aborts NEVER want images of aborted babies , or healthy babies , in the womb, shown to people EVER.
They love censorship of the abortion truth.
We saw this yesterday at the CA, where the pro abortion USI rep, (funded compulsorily, with no choice, by all fellow students, whether they wish to or not) wanted to censor truthful abortion images from being brought to the public.
Defund USI pro aborts now. Get their hand off their fellow students wallets.

You’re welcome!
@Mick Rick Jones: “pro-aborts”.
Hhhm, good to see you’re sticking with the handbook sanctioned vocabulary
There were 91,000, approx, post first trimester abortions in the US in 2015. About 10% of the almost 1m abortions were after the first trimester. It’s a pretty shocking statistic. Let’s not pretend that it’s very rare or doesn’t happen just because it makes you feel better about the process and end result. 91,000 in the US alone that year.
The abortion figures coming from America,have been extremely encouraging.Lets hope that Trump doesn’t make them rise,again..Oh,and there would be a lot more terminations in the first trimester and less in the second,if the anti choice folks(legislatures) stop putting obstacles in the way..Bigly population in the US,,
91,000 post first trimester terminations is hardly something to be positive about. 96% of terminations for non-FFA, health and rape reasons. Astonishing figures by any measure.
What figures would make you happy,Sean? Give us a laugh.
Death is no laughing matter Francis. Bizarre that you should think it so. But sure look it’s not termination of life sure it’s not? Whatever makes you sleep better at night Francis. Keep putting your fingers in your ears and closing your eyes.
“Keep putting your fingers in your ears and closing your eyes.” <- And that is exactly what the anti choice people keep on doing..You lot are never bloody happy,even when abortion figures have gone away down.Just wait until Trump defunds Planned Parenthood and you will start to see those figures going back up.But hey,I'll be saying -'nah nah I told you so' – whilst I have my "fingers in my ears & my eyes closed.' Bye bye!
I’m not one of the anti-choice ‘lot’ Francis. That’s the problem with pro abortion extremists they have to label and slur those who don’t share the same opinions as them. They are either ‘religious nuts’, members of a ‘cult’, an ‘anti choice lot’. Debate the matter but don’t resort to name calling just because you cannot articulate your position. You just look foolish.
@Sean @114: Says the lad who calls people “pro abortionist extremists” LOL..
Ok Sean-what figure of first trimester abortions would be acceptable to you in America ?
*pro abortion extremist*
Yes I would most certainly put you in that category Francis. Mad as a box of frogs. Guilty as charged. Over 900,000 first trimester abortions in the US in 2015 Francis. Almost 1m. Over 91,000 after first trimester. Incredible figures really. 96%+ abortions for ‘convenience’ reasons. Is this what you want Francis, really? Surely there comes a point where you’re humane side kicks in and says that this is wrong. No?
“Mad as a box of frogs ” Thanks for the compliment :)
Over 10% of “convenience” abortions are due to domestic violence related concerns.
Rape is also under reported hugely
Contraceptives fail.Why were women using them?Because they didn’t want to be pregnant.That is where abortion comes in
61% of women who procure an abortion are already mothers.Surely it’s they that know what is best for them,yes?
Abortion also eliminates the stress, physical risks, and psychological risks of continuing an unwanted pregnancy.
Personally speaking,I would never advocate for forcing someone to go through 9+ months of that torture,with the added knowledge of knowing, that giving childbirth is 14 times more fatal to a woman- than her having a first trimester abortion..
Illegal abortions accounts for over 78,000 lives every year
I will always put my wife & daughter above an embryo or foetus
PS: Texas State legislatures put in obstacles to women accessing abortions & second trimester abortions rose by 27%
Now…what figures would be acceptable to you ?
@Sean @114: You do realise the hypocrisy of what you;’re saying, yes?
There are no pro-abortion extremists and it’s the height of ignorance to say so when the extremists are the ones bombing, shooting up and protesting clinics.
Pro-choice people just want their rights enshrined in law, they don’t want to murder anyone, or maim anyone, or traumatise anyone, or judge anyone for their choices. That’s all your lot.
@Tricia Golden: Oh right, u say kill the baby, just as long as he/she is under 12 weeks ?
Just kill his/hers beating heart , brain, — and life – under 12 weeks.
That life is still aborted dead, thanks to you and yours likes.
