On Wednesday, Dr. Phil held a discussion on abortion during his show and pro-life Democrat Katrina Jackson did not hold back. Jackson, a state senator from Louisiana, was part of a panel that included a wide variety of views on the issue of abortion. During her appearance and audience member compared becoming pregnant with getting lung cancer from smoking cigarettes. They argued, “If that’s what we’re going to say, is that ‘you have to face the consequence,’ then someone who develops lung cancer from smoking, knowing there’s a risk, should not be treated. Though, that is medical treatment. Abortion is health care.”
Jackson did not take this view lightly, responding, “When I hear people saying, to the point of nine months, a healthy baby can be aborted—and then let me tell you what’s most offensive to me, Dr. Phil, is when I hear people say that for Black and Brown women, the remedy to them living in poverty is abortion. Then, to me, we perpetuate the racism that we faced for years.”
“I keep hearing as a Black or Brown woman, when I’m sitting in poverty, the answer to my poverty is not to expand my family,” she added.
Stupid, you can’t get cancer from sex! A baby is a miracle, not a disease.
I agree about a baby is a miracle. But some people do get cancer from sex.
This is ridiclous! A baby is a miracle! If you don’t want to have a child you can use birth control not abortion.
Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parent(?)hood, was a racist and eugenicist who courted the KKK and wanted to get rid of “human weeds;” AKA blacks, browns, and Christians! Her plan was to co-opt black “pastors” to spread her doctrine and with the likes of Warnock, Jesse Jackson, and Al Sharpton, has succeeded.
Awesome anymore like her in the Dem Party?
To compare the concept of abortion as a “treatment” for pregnancy, to a treatment for lung cancer, we would have to say it’s ok for the cancer patient to kill somebody and take their good lungs. That audience member was correct about both people being responsible for their own condition because of their own behavior, but murdering someone else is not a valid remedy for either situation.
Also, being pregnant is never something that needs a solution, because it is not a problem. The problem is someone having sex who does not want to be pregnant. The solution to that problem is giving birth to a healthy child. If you don’t want to win the lottery, stop buying lottery tickets.
It’s amazing how many brainless democrats have never heard of contraception.
