Abortion and Women's Rights

[Losty]

[Since you asked though. I guess I will say this. I don't think a fetus' right to live should ever trump a woman's right to ownership and control over her own body. That being said, if a fetus is viable and there are no medical issues causing a threat to the woman's life, then that fetus has a right to live. Doesn't mean it has a right to live inside her body but it does have a right to live.]
I put brackets around so I can say, I will not debate the contents of those brackets. That is my personal opinion and it is not up for debate. I will gladly debate what is before the brackets as it is my political opinion.

Seems fair enough. I find it strange though that I've said pretty much the same thing, yet you kudo posts by DP saying that I have the burden of proof to prove my opinion (despite that being an oxymoron).

You do not have the burden of proof to prove your opinion. You only have the burden of proof to prove why your opinion should affect the law.

If I am somehow mistaken in believing that you think abortion should be illegal, then I will apologize. (Even though I technically never said anything to you about it, I have come to the realization that many people take kudos very seriously on this forum and I must be more careful and selective in what I give Kudos to)

You see the the reason I have no burden of proof on the section within the brackets is because it is nothing more than my personal opinion. I shared with you a little glimpse of what goes on within my head. Just because I feel that way doesn't mean I think anyone's rights should be restricted based on my personal opinion.

The part before the brackets, that is my political opinion. What I mean by that is that it's the point I will argue when discussing what the laws should be.

If you hold these personal opinions about DNA determining personhood, but you don't believe anyone rights should be restricted based on that opinion then you have no burden of proof. You are either pro choice and in support of laws that allow abortion, or you have some other reason with evidence and facts to tell why a woman's rights should be restricted.

Hopefully that made sense.
