Its an interesting one isnt it...

A woman's right to kill a fetus is her right to choose, and her body her choice, but if she takes drugs that could damage or kill the fetus she can be criminalised.

Im not sure why the article seems to go to bat for the mother, THC ingestion in utero can be problematic, not just short term but longer term in learning difficulties and behaviours.

There is a lack of concensus in long term studies, and some of the studies with regard to cannabis is outdated is probably the best way to look at it.

I found the phrase: 'The idea that fetuses should be treated as people is the foundation of pregnancy criminalization' super interesting.

Where the article really loses me, is when discussing drug use during pregnancy 'these statutes surveil and criminalize women like Rossow, making pregnant people second-class citizens to the very fetuses they carry.'

Pregnant people (lol) should be classed 2nd class when they actively choose to do harm to the baby inside of them, in that scenario safeguarding a baby is more important than the mothers want to get high.

It's inadequate to use marijuana as anti-nausea during pregnancy though... I'd also doubt to leave a baby with such a mom tbh

CPI numbers stable. Cities getting cleaned up. Border closings at all time lows. Big beautiful bill helping my tax bill. Ukraine war seems near a conclusion. Vance warning UK to straighten up or face his wrath in 3 years. Football about to start. Fall is nearly here.

Historically good first 8 months.

Not really prices are edging upwards increasing inflation, try again in about 3 months when the tariffs have kicked in and current warehouse stock is exhausted.

A dramedy in the making? Someone's probably working on a script right now, while she awaits sentencing.

Our favourite debate getting cut off by right wing

With this DC crime yarn Trump is trying his best to divert attention away from the Epstein Files. Every week or two he comes up with another diversion. And it's ironic that members of the far right won't let it go. I never thought I'd say this...thank you Marjorie Taylor Greene.

The left thought they had Russiagate 2.0. And of course the sheep around here gobbled it up.

I told you there was nothing here and no one cared. But the political expertise of this board was adamant!

"People aren't googling Epstein therefore he's innocent" is a crazy take, even for someone with brainworms

Hysteria has died down, but I dont think the will of most has gone to learn the truth.

I say release everything and let the chips fall as they may, that seems to be the MAGA position thay has slowed recently, and wasnt the Anti MAGA until recently...

Amazing how voters propensity to know the truth is largely dependant on whether or not their side is effected or benefits from that truth.

Thats when you know you cant trust opinion!!!!
