What the fuck do you think they are? House planets? Inanimate objects? Women are human beings. Human beings are mammals. Mammals are animals. As in belonging to the Kingdom Animalia.
Furthermore, as all mammals have a common ancestor (mammals are descended from rodents), all mammalian embryos look very much alike. To the untrained eye, a whale, donkey or human being embryo looks pretty much the same. So a vet would know precisely what an embryo would look like if it was human.
Someone who doesn't have such an education, and gets butt hurt because they don't understand that all mammals have common ancestors in no way gets to have more say in MURDERING their unborn children.
You're welcome, moron.
...you completely ignore the real issues - womens healthcare, reproductive rights and comparing women to animals. The politician, Rep. Jack Nelsen, at least had the good sense to apologize. He issued an apology:
"The women in my life have taught me strength, resilience, integrity, hard work, joy, and love. I absolutely respect women, and the right to choose their own healthcare.
The way I phrased my statement about women and reproductive rights yesterday completely missed the mark. I'm embarrassed, and I offended others in the process. I am deeply sorry. I recognize the mistake and commit to doing better in the future.
I have always operated and will continue to operate under the standard that the government does not belong in the doctor's office.
I recognize how my words sounded derogatory and offensive. Frankly, I just completely blew it. I have embarrassed myself, my family, my constituents, and Idaho."
You, willy, just completely blew it. You have embarrassed yourself and your fellow righties. But I don't expect you to apologize. You don't have the class to apologize.
No, moron. Women ARE animals. Human beings ARE animals. We ain’t house plants. We’re not trees. We’re animals. If you look at several different species of embryos you find that mammalian embryos look very much alike in the early stages of development. Birds are descended from reptiles and you will see greater similarity between bird and reptile embryos than mammals. You can look at fish embryos and see they look vastly different from birds, reptiles and mammals. Any doctor or vet who is trained to know what is going on with mammalian embryos will know a great deal of what’s happening with human embryos. An idiot woman who doesn’t understand this and gets butt hurt over it should be no concern to anyone. And it certainly doesn’t give her the right to murder her children.
You owe me an apology for being such a moron. I’m waiting.
