I wonder what will happen if a woman in a state where abortion is banned but guns are readily available demands an abortion at gunpoint and then cites self-defense laws afterwards. I'm certainly not advocating that in any way, but it seems like the logical result of telling a woman she has to die through a birth she can't possibly survive but she can also buy as many guns as she wants without restriction.
it would be like that Bojack episode; when a woman became a shooter suddenly gun control laws were implemented. "I can't believe this country hates women more than it loves guns"
@@ryant2568yes, we can. maternal morbidity and mortality has risen in every state where abortion bans have become law. Abortion bans are taking the lives of women, and maiming them. It’s also driven away doctors from these states, creating women’s healthcare deserts, which affects ALL women in obtaining timely and competent care.
@@jjrockjaw To your point, if women don't have safe healthcare, things like that can happen when they attempt self care. I remember back reading about the 50's, when women would use coat hangers. Roe vs Wade prevented that and as of 2024, is supported by 79% of the US population.
If women are punished for abortion, than guys who ran away from the girl leaving her pregnant should be punished too. Why all the responsibility is only on women and they still don't have a choice to care for their own body? Why a piece of bloody jellyfish is a human being with rights that an adult woman has to fight for ?
A woman had sepsis twice because hospitals refused to remove a dead fetus. It was confirmed it was dead but they wouldnt take it out. She lost her uterus as a result and nearly died twice.
In Texas cows have more rights than women do. Cows can receive reproductive care that human women cannot. Let that sink in. It’s not about babies or life, it’s about control.
@@RedGreen-Blue then don't. Go live in Poland and leave the people who want to have choices alone. Getting an abortion is taking responsibility. It's more irresponsible to bring an unwanted child into the world
My neighbor was left alone screaming in pain, panicking and bleeding out in an ER room. They were ignoring her. They had to call the sheriff on her husband when he grabbed a doctor by the lapels telling him to help his wife! Just being a woman is a criminal act in Texas. 🙄🤬
I hope she ended up ok. Texas has been off my list to visit for awhile, now. Though if all the women turn out to vote things may change dramatically. Also, these conservative christian women need to realize that this can happen to anyone, and that your thoughts are much different when you're facing the harsh reality yourself. May we all put a stop to this cruelty.
Sadly a lot of Republican voting men won't care unless it is their wife bleeding out from an incomplete miscarriage and the Doctors are too scared to give her the life-saving extraction of the dead fetus, because they fear being arrested.
@erinmac4750 THIS! I was blindly anti-abortion as a teen, also. Until as a 20 yo I had a missed period pregnancy scare, despite being on birth control, and the terrifying reality of my entire life being derailed was instantly brought home. If we suddenly held men 100% financially responsible for every pregnancy & child they created, with mandatory paternity tests, every single anti-abortion law would disappear overnight!
If anybody says why I don’t have kids I’m going to respond that Trump made maternal health care worse. I don’t want to have kids because now I don’t want to die from childbirth.
I wasn't planning on kids anyway but it's Definitely not worth the health risk anymore. I figure that there is about to be plenty of orphans out there to potentially adopt if I ever do decide I want children.
Heck I've been abstaining completely since the laws went into effect. And before you man children speak my boyfriend understands why. I would be a high risk and there is a good chance of me dying due to heart problems. Boyfriend has failing health too we both have no parents. Doing the deed is now impractical! Absolutely ridiculous that we have to live like we're nuns in 2024 but here it is!
@@RedGreen-Blueif you wanna be a spamming troll at least be good at it. Not all these pregnancies that need abortion are UNWANTED. Some of them are pregnancy gone wrong and the woman will need to terminate it. But of course nothing is more important than a fetus's life even at the cost of its mother's, right? How many children have you adopted btw you pro-lifer?
What do people even expect at this point when child marriage is still legal in 37 states??? You can force a child into a marriage, have it so that child CANNOT legally leave that marriage, and then you ban her right to healthcare as well???? America is so backwards I just dont understand how any of this is happening

@bodonga9306 you have no idea what being a single or poor mother is. Having a job makes it so she can care for her children, you are so out of touch with real life. I would feel bad for you but you don't deserve it
By denying women health care for a miscarriage could result in further complications which included the inability to become pregnant in the future. Makes you wonder if that is the point? Scary H.M. tale in real time.
Money and power. That is the point. They don't care about anything, they are not religious. They are just using everything and everyone to make themselves feel like they are gods.
More like control. The Radical Right DOES NOT recognize women as human beings with agency and autonomy. And they want to collectively punish women for claiming their agency and autonomy from patriarchy.
What if the government decided that all men should have mandatory vasectomies to prevent an unwanted pregnancy? AND be jailed if they refused? OR, even better, the government required mandatory DNA samples from every man & required child support for every child produced? If the government wants to be in our bedrooms, they should hold BOTH parties responsible.... Not just the woman.
Shoot, I'm a guy and I agree with this. If they're going to push so hard to take reproductive rights away from women, they should push just as hard to take them away from us men too. I bet they would change their minds REAL fast if that ended up being the case.
The number of tube tyings has skyrocketed since Dobbs. And the women are dropping out of the dating pool so fast that Bumble has been putting up offensive ads trying to get women to come back. Women aren’t dumb. Loads of us have sworn off marriage, motherhood and dating completely until the environment is safe again. We’re done
Wait so a single childfree woman can get her tubes tied? Cuz i heard its impossible unless u had kids before. Another thing to look out for is the Trad Wife content. They are influencing-or trying to influence-women that feminism is out of style and being at home solely dependent on a man is the better life. Be VERY careful bc these influencers are planted everywhere and in disguise
Imagine: Women get the same care for their born children as today UNBORN children get from the GOP!!! No more poor, exhausted mothers, enough food, clothes, shoes and places outside in the fresh air for her and the children, state-paid kindergartens so that mothers can go on working ouside their houses. Imagine! It were possible if men were adults and without any hate against women. VOTE BLUE up and down the ballot!!!
You give the GOP way too much credit. The don't care for unborn children at all. When has a gop politician ever argued in favor of prenatal care. You would be extremely lucky to find even one. There are quite a lot of gop members who have openly said that prenatal care should not be half the responsibility for the man who was half involved in creating the pregnancy. Other gop members have said that prenatal care is a luxury that women should pay for on their own and not burden health insurance companies. The gop doesn't care about women, children, babies, or the unborn. They only care about money and power.
Ha ha ha , if all women were this stupid mankind would have ceased to exist long ago. Socialistic countries are working their women to death. They are not good mothers and their children are neglected by the system. Socialism has been tested and it has failed miserably.
The gop doesn’t care for the unborn. They give pregnant women nothing. Pregnancy is very expensive but there is no help for women from republicans. Because they don’t care. They never have
Give me one good reason why I should listen to irresponsible women? If the world was always this selfish there would be no humans left to show how lost this world has become. Stupidity becomes abundant before the big crash.
@@RedGreen-Blue How about irresponsible men? It takes two to make a baby. Seems to me that dead women can't have babies, nor can those who have lost their fertility because they have been denied healthcare. I think you're a bot.
@@RedGreen-BlueAh yes those terribly irresponsible women who.... wanted to have children and had a miscarriage that will impact the rest of their lives.
@wtfisthishandIebuIlshit only a tiny percentage of abortions are performed because the mothers life is in danger. Most are performed simply because the women has chosen not to be a parent.
"Forced-Birther"...rather than Pro-Birther. These people want the government to metaphorically hold down your mom or sister or aunt and FORCE her to go through the agony of birth like they force cows and goats to give birth. Period.
They already did that 😂 WOMEN fought for the right to vote. I mean the inception of feminism was JUST to prevent men from legally beating, r4 ping and lobotomizing their wife... before being legally allowed to vote and own a credit card *edit typo
Exactly, but its more than just wanting control over women's bodies, it's about wanting control of the universe that Republicans want. Vote blue 💙🇺🇸🇺🇸💙
Women want the right to opt out of being a mother but if the man decides he does not want to be a father he is still financially responsible for that child for 18 years????
@wtfisthishandIebuIlshit what ever happened to equality? if a women can't keep her legs shut then she should have to deal with the consequences just like a man that can't keep it in his trousers has to.
@wtfisthishandIebuIlshit what ever happened to gender equality? It's ok to tell a man to keep it in his trousers? maybe the women should keep her legs closed if she does not want the consequences?
I’ve personally met a woman who was forced to carry the body of her d3ad baby inside her for 10 days. She had PTSD from the government making her act as a human coffin for her own baby. That is UNFORGIVABLE! Vote for Kamala Harris in November. For the sake of mercy and everything that makes us human
Biden is a democrat and has been the president since this Roe vs Wade got overturned, what makes you think that goon squad is going to do anything different if she wins? Think for yourself and realize these politicians only rub each others backs and their pockets are full of lobbyist money. They arent going to save you. Protest for your beliefs not in the echo chamber of the internet.
Here in New Zealand 50 years ago I would be dead with out emergency care with 2 units of cold blood hand pumped into me to save my life never been so cold then an emergency DandC after an incomplete miscarriage a week before. Another woman in the ward noticed I was in trouble bleeding out and unable to access my buzzer. Without healthcare I would have died leaving my husband and first daughter alone.. it is disgusting what is happening in USA
Nothing is happening in the US, abortion is a states rights issue, the people of the state will make the choice in the end. As our Constitution is written.
@wtfisthishandIebuIlshit every state has the ability to redress griences, it may take more but it can happen. The people must solve this at the state level.
@wtfisthishandIebuIlshit States Like Wisconsin and Arizona have preexisting laws from the 19th century. However every state allows ballot measures to be added, that's how change occurs. However people of the states in question need to push their state congressional representatives to put bills on their floors for votes.
My mother miscarried a number of times… if she was pregnant today with these issues she would have died ! This is so disgusting !!!! Everything can go wrong during pregnancy !! I had two hard pregnancies and I needed a d&c after both of my live births!!! I’d be dead too and my daughters would be parent less !!! I’m worried about my daughters !!!!! ALL of our daughters !!!!!! I’m scared but I refuse to let them reduce us to broodmares !!!!!! Please vote ! 💙
Miscarriage and abortion are completely different medical codes. Please research more. I am on your side, but please be educated about what policies will be in place for this. How will Harris ensure the provided care will be there after an abortion, both mental and physical? How will she get it past congress That is a completely different policy than legalizing abortion. If you vote blue, please press for more than the legalization, there needs to be more.
@@kurono122probably how it was before. An absolute fight against crazy religious zralots and republicans to get any scraps of care for women and children.
@@kurono122 Codification. It is being discussed. But there is a HUGE grey area, and that's when it should be between the woman and her physician, and leave the politicians out of it. Some lawmaker in Idaho thought that the reproductive system and the digestive system were connected. Like you could swallow a pill with a camera on it and be able to see what was going on in the womb. And yeah, he was against this reproductive healthcare. Politicians should not be practicing medicine. Especially when they don't know basic biology.
IF it was planned pregnancies then why would you try to get pregnant when you already have kids? Clearly you rather terminate a pregnancy/ fetus as it means less to you so that you could be there for your kids so there’s no pregnant in the first place. You already have kids if you want to be there for them then don’t bring in more children and focus on your daughters.
Many of us men support women on this issue because a loss of rights and freedoms for any of us is a loss for all of us. As a straight white man, the same goes for my support of LBGTQ and minority rights. We're all in this together!
What about the "freedom" of the life that has zero choice in the matter? I don't care if you are a purple hermaphrodite.....what does any of it matter, if we refuse to protect our most vulnerable lives? Real men don't stand back and do nothing. Sack up and error on the side of life, not death. 9 months is definitely a true sacrifice, but taking away a life is forever. Be a real man.
I live in New Zealand and it horrifies me to see what is happening to women/girls in America. It's truly horrific and I hope that these abortion bans are lifted asap, before more women suffer, and families potentially lose a loved one.
These pseudo-moral fundamentalist Christian laws harm so many. If they cared about lives of women or children, they'd act to improve care when maternal and infant mortality goes up after these bans are passed instead of lying and stone-walling. Texas and Arkansas already had terrible death rates for both, and they've increased dramatically. They know. They don't care. "God's will" or something. They're usually the same folk that stock up on ammo after yet another mass shooting. They're a weird death cult that speak the opposite of what their actions say. Then they follow Trump who has broken almost all ten commandments. It makes no sense. Thank you for caring.
Have you seen Project 2025? If Trump wins they want to force every country to do this by denying foreign aide. 'Legal Eagle' did a video on this. That bit is within the first 4 minutes. Go take a look, it's scary!
I'm waiting for the AMA or the OB/GYN associations to start suing these states. I'm waiting for healthcare providers to start suing on the grounds of 'restraint of performance". OB/GYNS and ER personnel cannot do their jobs because of these laws.
The real issue is that OB/GYNs have just been leaving those states to practice in states without bans. It's been causing maternity wards to close and creating OB/GYN care deserts. People are having to travel over a hundred miles just to get to a hospital with a maternity ward to have their babies.
That is really scary to think under the new laws they would of just made her continue to carry the dead baby while it killed her in the process. Maybe saving her once she was on the brink of death and developed a number of new issues.
@@jengsci8268They mean that Doctors are human too. Perhaps they have a family, so they are scared because they don't wanna leave them alone and without an income. Sure they SHOULDN'T fear legal repercussions but they aren't wrong if they do. It is like being held to the end of a weapon everyday.
Genuinely, yeah. I don't live in the USA but my country aways copies y'all's politics and now there's some crazy people in here too, hopefully I'll never get pregnant, the future isn't looking very bright.
There is NO STATE where you can LEGALLY walk into a Doctor's office even one day after 5 months and have an ELECTIVE abortion. Only MEDICAL abortions deemed necessary by an Obstetrician are performed after the 5 month mark. Everyone needs to learn the difference between a *MEDICAL ABORTION AND AN ELECTIVE ABORTION. THEY'RE TWO VERY DIFFERENT THINGS!!!!*
Heartless man. Go out and find her? We are everywhere. I have heard miscarriage horror stories from so many friends and family and strangers. I have PCOS and am terrified of getting pregnant because of something goes wrong, I could die and the hospitals might decide not to help me.
It's exactly the point. Its so bizarre that that there are even women who are in support of them. We went form hypotheticals to actual occurrences of women being in danger of losing their life when they were denied care for nonviable pregnancies. It is wild. Draconian for sure. You don't feel proud as a medical professional, letting a patient deteriorate because you are likely to be jailed or worse for doing your job as a medical clinician.
@allisonsanders3384 I have a similar story. Ectopic pregnancy in 1975, alive today because my doctor performed an abortion the following day after the diagnosis.
Roe passing saved many women's lives. The mortality rate actually dropped for pregnant women when procedures became legal. over 15% of (documented) pregnancies end in miscarriages. That's about one in six. And about 8% of pregnancies have some kind of complication that will extremely adversely affect the health of the mother or the baby . That's huge.
40 years ago, this would have been my mother. Her fetus died at 18 weeks, but thankfully, she lived in Canada and was able to receive the medical care she needed. Not only did she preserve her fertility, but she was treated with dignity and kindness. My sister also needed medication to evacuate a dead fetus. She, too, received healthcare because she lives in Canada. I live in the US and I wonder why my daughter and her friends can't receive this basic level of care.
@Annie-ed1hmExcept for the fact that abortion bans are starting to make doctors refuse to perform such procedures even to the detriment of the mother.
@Annie-ed1hmIt's not a lie. You can look it up if you aren't a coward like literally all forced birthers. Or if you deny it again I'll bring you the names so you can confront the dead women you're claiming don't exist
I live in Europe, I had a normal birth just until my placenta came out and some part was missing. They had to do something about that and in the end had to do a D&C to make sure all was out and I didn't get an infection or would hemorrhage. It was necessary and I cannot wait for a second child. If I lived in the US, I wouldn't have been that lucky to get such post-natal care. So vote blue if you want women to be able to have the best healthcare possible (because procedures such as these save lives and enable women to get pregnant (again) in the future instead of dying or becoming sterile). Note: This is the arguement to give to pro-birthers, maybe they'll listen to that, thought I doubt it.
I would never want to even visit the US anymore. It has become a nightmare for people, women in particular and if the people who still has some community sense does not msnage to stop it, it will be the scariest country in the world. 😱
Honestly I wouldn't recommend visiting here. There are a lot of wonderful things here and wonderful people but it's just not safe. If things ever change for the better, definitely come for a visit! We've got everything from the big city attractions in New York to national parks to the best barbecue you'll ever eat in some tiny restaurant in the middle of nowhere, TN. But for now, unfortunately this country isn't safe to visit. And as a person who actually loves this country, that's heartbreaking to admit.

Crazy people that would rather have hundreds of woman bleeding out for the sake of their half-assed morality about life instead of getting rid of a bunch of cells. Can't stand them.
This is so disgusting to me. I simply do not understand the right-wing desire to completely control another person's behavior or choices when it does not affect them in any way. Not to mention that there is an abortion ritual in the Old Testament, and that a miscarriage caused by injury is not considered a murder in the Old Testament, but the death of the pregnant woman IS considered a murder. They cannot use the Bible to make their arguments. Then they have no desire to help the women once their babies are born. It's really just a form of punishment against women, because deep-seated misogyny has existed in our culture for thousands of years.
They think is wrong/sinful and therefore it needs to be banned, don't mind the fact that someone getting pregnant and making their own choice in how to proceed doesn't involve them in anyway because god forbid they mind their own business for once 🙄
You can't just go around stabbing ur babies because that's what you're really doing. Abortions are evil and I'm an atheist it's kinda sick how twisted y'all are.
ONLY BAN here should be to ban men from making any laws about what they know nothing about or that doesn’t affect their body! ONLY the Doctors & the women should decide what’s BEST to do!!
And now women have died and are injured. I was hemmorrhaging twice at three months pregnant with much wanted pregnancies. I was saved by a curratage in the ER. This was 35 years ago. I went on to have two wonderful babies.
I would have died w/o a D&C. I was well on my way to bleeding out from something non-pregnancy-related and thankfully was able to receive care, pre-Dobbs. It saved my life and it's crazy to me that that option is only available to women living in certain zip codes.
I’m from a “third world country” and even here we have solid reproduction and women’s healthcare rights. Abortion is legal. What’s happening in the US is frightening. I hope human rights and women’s rights win in your coming election. 💙
@Polka-Dot-ohokay sorry, as a 16 yrs old boy, who got SA from a woman. Still, people say man doesn't get SA from a woman. Most women would hit me if i say this, my big sister molest me, and her friend SA me, got pregnant, did abortion and did SA me again like 5 time and abortion 3 times. Do you call this humanity to you? Or should i say humanity is cruel to itself?
People need to stop treating abortion as if it's a black and white moral issue. It's not. Just because you're against it doesn't make you pro-life. And if you can't see the negative consequences of these abortion bans, what does that say about you?
"Men don't live in a world where their reproductive organs are treated as state property. I have greater rights over my body today than the segment producer who wrote this script." I really wish more people, women included, would understand this. My family and I have thought this for a long time: it's not about unborn babies. It's about control. But so many ignorant people who don't understand anything about pregnancy react angrily if you tell them abortion means killing babies, so that's what the sadistic individuals in power do... so they can retain power. If you keep the masses angry and divided, they'll be too busy fighting each other to turn and fight you. Our world is so messed up.
My 12 yo daughter found me unconscious and bleeding out in my bathtub after hemorrhaging from a miscarriage in 2021. Because we live in California, she was able to call 911 and have an ambulance get me to the ER in time to save my life. VOTE BLUE EVERYONE!!
@deborah. Appalling use of the English language there debs. I'm from a nation where abortion is legal, a human-rights issue. You're not a medical practitioner, you're writing garbage.
? Are you talking about the doctors? They have no choice they must abide by the laws, they are innocent in this it is the Government that needs to be sued.
America, wake up and aware of this division. Vote for the right reason! Remember, your wives, yourself, your daughter, your nieces, your granddaughters, your friends, your neighbours and your generation etc might go through this one day if the abortion banned continues. Fight for your country and rights!
I remember reading a news article ages ago in high school where a young single woman had tor resort to running into a brick wall repeatedly because that's the only way she could have an abortion. I'd say that's a way worse fate for both mother and fetus than just letting people get an abortion!
I would have been one of those women had Roe v. Wade not been in effect! I carried until 4.5 months, and then the baby's heart just stopped, and my body would not expelled the dead tissues. This is NOT something where politics is welcome. LEAVE OUR BODIES ALONE!!!
I want to know how many women have been killed by their partner due to being pregnant before and after this decision. Because we know that medical reasons are not the only reason women get abortions
Thank you, Ali, for speaking out on behalft of all women. One of your best segments I've ever watched - and that says a lot since I really like your shows. For me as a german woman it is nearly unbearable to see the pain these SCOTUS has brought over american women and I can only hope and do my small part online to get Kamala Harris elected.
Yeah "No prostate cancer care, no urethral infection care, no removing bladder stones". Gotta love those potential babies, can't mess them up with medicine!
I love the conviction he spoke with- so many people talk about it calmly as if the consequences are negligible. This is not something we should be calm about.
The replacement rate is low. Reducing women's rights is a shortcut to population growth. It's a financial policy dressed as a moral one. If it was a moral issue, women and children would be better supported.
The guy who doesn't believe women are bleeding out in parking lots could be confronted with mountains of evidence and still wouldn't change his mind. The truth is he doesn't care if women are dying or that their lives are being put at risk.
There's a little irony for Christians who never understand Jesus, the Son of God at all. He had a huge respect for all women, any race. There is a reason why He never talked about Abortion nor "Killing infant inside the womb" in the Bible. That is why Abortion is not counted as one of the Sins He listed. Not to mention LGBTQIA+ or "a sense of identity" is not counted as one of the Sins either, according to Jesus himself in the Bible. I would be glad to challenge any religious person to find it in the Bible. 😐
Well sorry not sorry actually no one is above God so yes he can tell us what do becuase He made u and I . Dont like it thats how it is. Rasicm and holocost were permitted in the law that didnt make it moraly correct. In your situation , ur a non believer so yes i guess nobody can tell u what to do . Dossent make it right thou.

@@paloma_lopez - Actually, God gave us a Will so we can decide what is right and what is wrong. He only gave humans His Laws, yet humans tend to break it many times through each generations because they don't like to obey His Laws. They likes to judge other people based on their own beliefs rather than God's. Jesus taught us how to treat our neighbors with kindness and love, yet humans don't like to play nice with neighbors. That's why many Christians don't follow Jesus' Parables nor walking on His path. That is why you see many different types of the Bible-carrying religious people with many different beliefs. I'm an open-minded Christian whose accepted all neighbors that including LGBTQIA+ people and supported Abortion because I studied Biology enough to understand pregnancy. 😐
It's so sad to see that this is the direction America is going. We are going backwards! What made us great was the rights we have and the freedoms and Now we are fighting to KEEP THEM. This is not the America I want. We had people march for these rights and fight hard for it to just have a Power hungry man just take it all away?
I am going to comment again about the fact that the vast majority of people who are pro-life came to those beliefs due to religion. Doctors and scientists know the point at which an abortion would be cruelty to a fetus/baby. Therefore, saying that all abortion is murder is based upon religious idealologies. So, when the government intervenes, they are not only interfering in an individuals right to have control over their own health. These government officials are also proclaiming they know at least as much about healthcare as any doctor, yet last time I checked it is illegal to diagnose and treat a medical disorder if one is not a doctor. So, saying that no woman ever NEEDS to terminate a pregnacy (blatant misinformation that now too many people think is fact) and legislate to make sure no woman can have these procedures, they are in a sense giving out medical advice and that is wrong on so many levels. Now enter our first amendment rights. I have the right to believe and practice any religious (or non religious) philosophy I want to... as an individual who does not worship an Abrahamic/mainstream religion, the first amendment is one of my chief concerns. I know too many people that think religious persecution in America could never happen again. 🤦🏼♀️ And this is why history repeats itself over and over. They really don't think Trump making a statement like 'if you're not a Christian, you aren't an American is something to find concerning. Most also refuse to even consider the fact that their opinions on Abortion are based in which type of faith and religion is dominant in their lives. And, what really blows my mind is them saying a fetus has a soul from the moment of conception and yet not accepting that idea is based in religious belief. Point is that the government intruding into health and reproduction is beyond control over health, it is imposing one's beliefs onto someone else ignoring the first amendment and the fa
How exactly are you determining whether or not it's murder? It doesn't have to be "cruelty" to be murder. The fact remains that every single abortion is the deliberate killing of an innocent human being. And yes, of course the government should intervene to stop this and uphold the human right to life.
@@travisjohnson7065 you just made my point. How are you determining that every case is the murder of an innocent human being instead of a 4 week old clump of cells? My point of cruelty is that there are limits. Aside from the most dire mortality risks, there's no one that would think allowing abortions of a 7 month old fetus is acceptable. It would be CRUEL. THAT is what I mean by cruelty, but i think anyone who actually read my comment without the predetermined bias you actually came into it with understood my point. On the other hand, any biologist knows that a zygote isn't even formed until three to four weeks, so literally a clump of cells, not an innocent human being. I will also make another point... I always knew that I would never be comfortable having an abortion and knew that for ME, it would feel wrong. BUT I would never force my viewpoint or feelings about something so personal onto other women. In general, a reasonable man would step back from this issue except for in the case of a man who would want the child to care for himself in which case something would have to be worked out between the two people involved. Other than that, until men can carry a baby for nine months and personally experience all the adjustments, hardships, and changes women must endure, as well as being in a situation where it effects employment opportunities and standard of living to such a drastic degree, men just don't have a right to weigh in on this, nor to judge women put in the position of having to chose. Women don't WANT to have abortions. They don't think it's a substitute for contraception. And with the exceptions of indigenous populations, it is not going to lead to some genocide. Fact is, there are already too many people on this planet. There is no reason to bring a child into this world unless that child is wanted, and the parents are willing to make the sacrifices necessary for a child. And for all those people that seem to think people willing to adopt are a dime a dozen, it is not true. We still have orphanages and children's homes because there are too many people that can not or will not care for a child. Add to that the fact that it is not easy to get help financially to help with a child. If a woman needs to work, they do not get an adequate maternity leave in America, their health care is not magically paid for just because the woman is pregnant. The bunch of conservative Christians out there protesting outside of clinics are the same people that are not even willing to pay higher taxes for ensure a good education is available, good and comprehensive healthcare, nutritious meals, and worthwhile childcare for that mother that needs to work two or three jobs because even subsidized, childcare is too expensive for most single women or men. There is so much that has to go into deciding how to make the best future for themselves, and eventually, a child but I know, you don't care... you only care about a clump of cells than can not even react to stimuli yet. 😒

I wonder what will happen if a woman in a state where abortion is banned but guns are readily available demands an abortion at gunpoint and then cites self-defense laws afterwards. I'm certainly not advocating that in any way, but it seems like the logical result of telling a woman she has to die through a birth she can't possibly survive but she can also buy as many guns as she wants without restriction.

I was blindly anti-abortion as a teen, also. Until as a 20 yo I had a missed period pregnancy scare, despite being on birth control, and the terrifying reality of my entire life being derailed was instantly brought home.
If we suddenly held men 100% financially responsible for every pregnancy & child they created, with mandatory paternity tests, every single anti-abortion law would disappear overnight!
If anybody says why I don’t have kids I’m going to respond that Trump made maternal health care worse. I don’t want to have kids because now I don’t want to die from childbirth.
I wasn't planning on kids anyway but it's Definitely not worth the health risk anymore. I figure that there is about to be plenty of orphans out there to potentially adopt if I ever do decide I want children.
Heck I've been abstaining completely since the laws went into effect. And before you man children speak my boyfriend understands why. I would be a high risk and there is a good chance of me dying due to heart problems. Boyfriend has failing health too we both have no parents. Doing the deed is now impractical! Absolutely ridiculous that we have to live like we're nuns in 2024 but here it is!

Roe passing saved many women's lives. The mortality rate actually dropped for pregnant women when procedures became legal. over 15% of (documented) pregnancies end in miscarriages. That's about one in six. And about 8% of pregnancies have some kind of complication that will extremely adversely affect the health of the mother or the baby . That's huge.

I live in Europe, I had a normal birth just until my placenta came out and some part was missing. They had to do something about that and in the end had to do a D&C to make sure all was out and I didn't get an infection or would hemorrhage. It was necessary and I cannot wait for a second child. If I lived in the US, I wouldn't have been that lucky to get such post-natal care. So vote blue if you want women to be able to have the best healthcare possible (because procedures such as these save lives and enable women to get pregnant (again) in the future instead of dying or becoming sterile).
Note: This is the arguement to give to pro-birthers, maybe they'll listen to that, thought I doubt it.
Look up Brittany Watts in Warren, Ohio. She was arrested after miscarrying at home when she was denied care at the hospital.
I would never want to even visit the US anymore. It has become a nightmare for people, women in particular and if the people who still has some community sense does not msnage to stop it, it will be the scariest country in the world. 😱
There's always Afghanistan, where women are no longer permitted to speak in public. And it gets worse from there.
@janetkriegl6720 the USA seems to be trying to get there fast
Honestly I wouldn't recommend visiting here. There are a lot of wonderful things here and wonderful people but it's just not safe. If things ever change for the better, definitely come for a visit! We've got everything from the big city attractions in New York to national parks to the best barbecue you'll ever eat in some tiny restaurant in the middle of nowhere, TN. But for now, unfortunately this country isn't safe to visit. And as a person who actually loves this country, that's heartbreaking to admit.
@@janetkriegl6720so because Afghanistan is bad means you can do what you want as long as they are worse? Thats weird dude.
@@janetkriegl6720 if you read Project 2025, it's not far off!
If you watch interviews with some of the main instigators of Project 2025, they talk about god, and in the same sentence, say that America should absolutely bring back public executions!!!!
Project 2025 is a Theocratic, Fascist Dictatorship!!
It will start on day one of trump's presidency!!
It is totally heart wrenching that this actually is happening in a world leading country in 2024.
And him being PROUD and BRAGGING about being the one to make it happen, is utterly disturbing!!
Crazy people that would rather have hundreds of woman bleeding out for the sake of their half-assed morality about life instead of getting rid of a bunch of cells. Can't stand them.
This is so disgusting to me. I simply do not understand the right-wing desire to completely control another person's behavior or choices when it does not affect them in any way. Not to mention that there is an abortion ritual in the Old Testament, and that a miscarriage caused by injury is not considered a murder in the Old Testament, but the death of the pregnant woman IS considered a murder. They cannot use the Bible to make their arguments. Then they have no desire to help the women once their babies are born. It's really just a form of punishment against women, because deep-seated misogyny has existed in our culture for thousands of years.
They think is wrong/sinful and therefore it needs to be banned, don't mind the fact that someone getting pregnant and making their own choice in how to proceed doesn't involve them in anyway because god forbid they mind their own business for once 🙄
No wonder people keep leaving... I walked away from the gop permanently.
If women have a criminal record or they are dead, they can't vote. Simple as that.
You can't just go around stabbing ur babies because that's what you're really doing. Abortions are evil and I'm an atheist it's kinda sick how twisted y'all are.
ONLY BAN here should be to ban men from making any laws about what they know nothing about or that doesn’t affect their body!
ONLY the Doctors & the women should decide what’s BEST to do!!
Control of women, put us back in our place.. barefoot in the kitchen...
Yep
We are NOT going back. We are a different breed of women. We are educated, have resources and will whoop ahhz
@@Mamatebear sorry to break it to you but you ain't going back, government needs your taxes one way or the other.
exactly
And now women have died and are injured. I was hemmorrhaging twice at three months pregnant with much wanted pregnancies. I was saved by a curratage in the ER. This was 35 years ago. I went on to have two wonderful babies.
This is exactly why we need Roe back!! Abortions help bring more children into the world!!!
VOTE BLUE ALL DOWN BALLOT
HARRIS/WALZ 2024🌊🇺🇸💙
I would have died w/o a D&C. I was well on my way to bleeding out from something non-pregnancy-related and thankfully was able to receive care, pre-Dobbs. It saved my life and it's crazy to me that that option is only available to women living in certain zip codes.
I’m from a “third world country” and even here we have solid reproduction and women’s healthcare rights. Abortion is legal. What’s happening in the US is frightening. I hope human rights and women’s rights win in your coming election. 💙

@Polka-Dot-ohokay sorry, as a 16 yrs old boy, who got SA from a woman. Still, people say man doesn't get SA from a woman. Most women would hit me if i say this, my big sister molest me, and her friend SA me, got pregnant, did abortion and did SA me again like 5 time and abortion 3 times. Do you call this humanity to you? Or should i say humanity is cruel to itself?
Absolutely and hey! She didn’t get pregnant on her own. Punish one, punish both. You got dna to prove who.
Yup - and if anything happens to that woman, the man's family pays her family for 10 generations. We need to stop fn around with men.
I imagine a man saying, “but I wanted to keep the baby!”
@@carlynsykes6053 hey he was just a donor...
She should sue her state for her now permanent health issues.
People need to stop treating abortion as if it's a black and white moral issue. It's not. Just because you're against it doesn't make you pro-life. And if you can't see the negative consequences of these abortion bans, what does that say about you?
"Men don't live in a world where their reproductive organs are treated as state property. I have greater rights over my body today than the segment producer who wrote this script."
I really wish more people, women included, would understand this. My family and I have thought this for a long time: it's not about unborn babies. It's about control. But so many ignorant people who don't understand anything about pregnancy react angrily if you tell them abortion means killing babies, so that's what the sadistic individuals in power do... so they can retain power. If you keep the masses angry and divided, they'll be too busy fighting each other to turn and fight you.
Our world is so messed up.
My 12 yo daughter found me unconscious and bleeding out in my bathtub after hemorrhaging from a miscarriage in 2021. Because we live in California, she was able to call 911 and have an ambulance get me to the ER in time to save my life.
VOTE BLUE EVERYONE!!
Howdy, fellow Californian! Where common sense is common!
Why are any of these "men" who are practicing medicine haven't been arrested?
Because they are men.
@deborah. Appalling use of the English language there debs. I'm from a nation where abortion is legal, a human-rights issue. You're not a medical practitioner, you're writing garbage.
? Are you talking about the doctors? They have no choice they must abide by the laws, they are innocent in this it is the Government that needs to be sued.
@@b_northof5369 no they are referring to the politicians making medical decisions on behalf of women when they have no medical expertise or experience
America, wake up and aware of this division. Vote for the right reason! Remember, your wives, yourself, your daughter, your nieces, your granddaughters, your friends, your neighbours and your generation etc might go through this one day if the abortion banned continues. Fight for your country and rights!
And then people wonder why women don't want to have kids anymore. 😂😂😂😂
It’s a mystery 😂😔
Why would I vote against my own rights? I’m voting blue!
So women that miscarry will no longer seek medical care for fear of being punished for the “abortion”.
Donnie had no idea or principle when asked if women should be punished.
I remember reading a news article ages ago in high school where a young single woman had tor resort to running into a brick wall repeatedly because that's the only way she could have an abortion. I'd say that's a way worse fate for both mother and fetus than just letting people get an abortion!
Thank you Ari and the team for keeping focus on this issue!
I would have been one of those women had Roe v. Wade not been in effect! I carried until 4.5 months, and then the baby's heart just stopped, and my body would not expelled the dead tissues.
This is NOT something where politics is welcome. LEAVE OUR BODIES ALONE!!!
I want to know how many women have been killed by their partner due to being pregnant before and after this decision.
Because we know that medical reasons are not the only reason women get abortions
Thank you, Ali, for speaking out on behalft of all women. One of your best segments I've ever watched - and that says a lot since I really like your shows. For me as a german woman it is nearly unbearable to see the pain these SCOTUS has brought over american women and I can only hope and do my small part online to get Kamala Harris elected.
The government should NEVER be involved in one's body, it's their body, THEIR choice!!!
What do you expect? We couldnt even pass the Equal Rights Ammendment.
Its a shame WE WOMEN CAN'T MAKE MEN ALSO HAVE BANDS OF ANY MEDICAL HELP TO MEN
Yeah "No prostate cancer care, no urethral infection care, no removing bladder stones". Gotta love those potential babies, can't mess them up with medicine!
Say it louder for the people in the back
I love the conviction he spoke with- so many people talk about it calmly as if the consequences are negligible. This is not something we should be calm about.
The replacement rate is low. Reducing women's rights is a shortcut to population growth. It's a financial policy dressed as a moral one. If it was a moral issue, women and children would be better supported.
Yup! This why the legal age got dropped for kids in the workplace.
It has nothing to do with morals.
Just make international dating easier.
Import housewives from poor countries where people are naturally willing to give up careers.
Problem solved.
I got sterilized at this year at 25 because I wouldn’t risk dying bc it’s illegal to get healthcare !!
The guy who doesn't believe women are bleeding out in parking lots could be confronted with mountains of evidence and still wouldn't change his mind. The truth is he doesn't care if women are dying or that their lives are being put at risk.
Anyone over 25 who didn't vote for Hillary has no right to complain, especially in the swing states. Her emails were just so important (eyeroll)...

Ladies get out there and VOTE ! 💙🇺🇸
NO GODS NO RELEGIONS ON THIS WORLD/UNIVERSE CAN TELL WOMEN WHAT TO DO WITH THEIR BODY.
Literally the entire issue revolves around the fact that it's not their body abortion is killing. Pay attention.
There's a little irony for Christians who never understand Jesus, the Son of God at all. He had a huge respect for all women, any race. There is a reason why He never talked about Abortion nor "Killing infant inside the womb" in the Bible. That is why Abortion is not counted as one of the Sins He listed. Not to mention LGBTQIA+ or "a sense of identity" is not counted as one of the Sins either, according to Jesus himself in the Bible. I would be glad to challenge any religious person to find it in the Bible. 😐
Correct
Well sorry not sorry actually no one is above God so yes he can tell us what do becuase He made u and I . Dont like it thats how it is. Rasicm and holocost were permitted in the law that didnt make it moraly correct.
In your situation , ur a non believer so yes i guess nobody can tell u what to do . Dossent make it right thou. But yes nobody tells u what to do (satan whispers) i dont mean the red guy i mean what he represents is liberty to serve yourself since u are your own god. ... good day.
@@paloma_lopez - Actually, God gave us a Will so we can decide what is right and what is wrong. He only gave humans His Laws, yet humans tend to break it many times through each generations because they don't like to obey His Laws. They likes to judge other people based on their own beliefs rather than God's. Jesus taught us how to treat our neighbors with kindness and love, yet humans don't like to play nice with neighbors. That's why many Christians don't follow Jesus' Parables nor walking on His path. That is why you see many different types of the Bible-carrying religious people with many different beliefs. I'm an open-minded Christian whose accepted all neighbors that including LGBTQIA+ people and supported Abortion because I studied Biology enough to understand pregnancy. 😐
If a man had to carry and birth children, there'd be paid family leave, paid childcare.
It's so sad to see that this is the direction America is going. We are going backwards! What made us great was the rights we have and the freedoms and Now we are fighting to KEEP THEM. This is not the America I want. We had people march for these rights and fight hard for it to just have a Power hungry man just take it all away?
I think it's time to cross the ocean again...
Thank god I am too old to have kids...
… and that is not healthcare. Thank you Mr. Velshi… normally I would argue that you can’t drive the point home, but you did! Well done!❤️
VOTE BLUE 💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙💙
I am going to comment again about the fact that the vast majority of people who are pro-life came to those beliefs due to religion. Doctors and scientists know the point at which an abortion would be cruelty to a fetus/baby. Therefore, saying that all abortion is murder is based upon religious idealologies. So, when the government intervenes, they are not only interfering in an individuals right to have control over their own health. These government officials are also proclaiming they know at least as much about healthcare as any doctor, yet last time I checked it is illegal to diagnose and treat a medical disorder if one is not a doctor. So, saying that no woman ever NEEDS to terminate a pregnacy (blatant misinformation that now too many people think is fact) and legislate to make sure no woman can have these procedures, they are in a sense giving out medical advice and that is wrong on so many levels.
Now enter our first amendment rights. I have the right to believe and practice any religious (or non religious) philosophy I want to... as an individual who does not worship an Abrahamic/mainstream religion, the first amendment is one of my chief concerns. I know too many people that think religious persecution in America could never happen again. 🤦🏼♀️ And this is why history repeats itself over and over. They really don't think Trump making a statement like 'if you're not a Christian, you aren't an American is something to find concerning. Most also refuse to even consider the fact that their opinions on Abortion are based in which type of faith and religion is dominant in their lives. And, what really blows my mind is them saying a fetus has a soul from the moment of conception and yet not accepting that idea is based in religious belief. Point is that the government intruding into health and reproduction is beyond control over health, it is imposing one's beliefs onto someone else ignoring the first amendment and the fa
How exactly are you determining whether or not it's murder? It doesn't have to be "cruelty" to be murder. The fact remains that every single abortion is the deliberate killing of an innocent human being. And yes, of course the government should intervene to stop this and uphold the human right to life.
@@travisjohnson7065 you just made my point. How are you determining that every case is the murder of an innocent human being instead of a 4 week old clump of cells? My point of cruelty is that there are limits. Aside from the most dire mortality risks, there's no one that would think allowing abortions of a 7 month old fetus is acceptable. It would be CRUEL. THAT is what I mean by cruelty, but i think anyone who actually read my comment without the predetermined bias you actually came into it with understood my point.
On the other hand, any biologist knows that a zygote isn't even formed until three to four weeks, so literally a clump of cells, not an innocent human being.
I will also make another point... I always knew that I would never be comfortable having an abortion and knew that for ME, it would feel wrong. BUT I would never force my viewpoint or feelings about something so personal onto other women. In general, a reasonable man would step back from this issue except for in the case of a man who would want the child to care for himself in which case something would have to be worked out between the two people involved.
Other than that, until men can carry a baby for nine months and personally experience all the adjustments, hardships, and changes women must endure, as well as being in a situation where it effects employment opportunities and standard of living to such a drastic degree, men just don't have a right to weigh in on this, nor to judge women put in the position of having to chose. Women don't WANT to have abortions. They don't think it's a substitute for contraception. And with the exceptions of indigenous populations, it is not going to lead to some genocide. Fact is, there are already too many people on this planet. There is no reason to bring a child into this world unless that child is wanted, and the parents are willing to make the sacrifices necessary for a child. And for all those people that seem to think people willing to adopt are a dime a dozen, it is not true. We still have orphanages and children's homes because there are too many people that can not or will not care for a child. Add to that the fact that it is not easy to get help financially to help with a child. If a woman needs to work, they do not get an adequate maternity leave in America, their health care is not magically paid for just because the woman is pregnant. The bunch of conservative Christians out there protesting outside of clinics are the same people that are not even willing to pay higher taxes for ensure a good education is available, good and comprehensive healthcare, nutritious meals, and worthwhile childcare for that mother that needs to work two or three jobs because even subsidized, childcare is too expensive for most single women or men.
There is so much that has to go into deciding how to make the best future for themselves, and eventually, a child but I know, you don't care... you only care about a clump of cells than can not even react to stimuli yet. 😒
@@thescarletgraywitch8052 So what are you saying, that no abortions are ever murder, or that some can be? And if so, what is the metric you're using?
It's an innocent human being regardless of when they are killed. A human being as evidenced by basic biology, and innocent until proven guilty of anything.
Yes, all human beings are literally clumps of cells. Name one who isn't. Or for that matter, cite one biologist on earth who denies that the unborn are human beings. Go ahead, find a single one, take all the time you need.
@travisjohnson7065 at this point you cannot be convinced of anything, so why don’t you do yourself and everyone on this planet a favor and remove yourself from the census please?
