I'm sure youre not saying donating organs to someone outside your body is being pregnant?
The same way I'm obviously not saying my example is someone being pregnant.
Its not a comment on the biology of pregnancy, it's the principle of holding a baby you're looking after while getting into an aggressive physical confrontation.
No, first fetus is not a baby, and even if you consider it a baby due to bigoted laws, falling from ones arms, and getting shot by someone else are totally different things.
I'm not in favour of laws against abortion but I'd consider a fetus to be a synonym for unborn baby.
I need to clarify what I thought was fairly simple. I'm not saying a man holding a baby is pregnant with a baby.
I'm not saying I think being dropped out of someone's arms is being shot by someone.
I was drawing a similarity where the principle is the same.
In both instances someone is holding a baby they plan to care for, I'm sure no one would suggest the woman did this as a method of abortion. So she's planning to care for the baby but got into a violent altercation and the claim is she was the aggressor.
So the principle is that they're holding a baby they're caring for while acting violently.
Really a comparison situation isn't necessary. It's simple enough to say, don't chase people and engage in a fight with them while you're pregnant. The baby you're caring for might get hurt.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.
