re: #108 Charles

What “issue” is that?

This story is nothing but deceptive red meat for the anti-abortion crowd — and it has nothing to do with abortion.

The story - however it turns out - has the potential to offer the opportunity for discussing the issue of when human “tissue” becomes life. That’s the “issue”. You have your opinion about that; I have mine. And even where our opinions do not differ on that issue, there is the “issue” of balancing interests - mother, fetus, society. All that.

Look, you strike a balance at one point. I at another. I just got into this because there was part of the statute that could be relevant that wasn’t part of the discussion until I mentioned it.

That’s all.
