There needs to be punishment for taking a life. Both the mother and the father should be held responsible for the baby's demise but 1st Degree murder is excessive. Manslaughter with guaranteed jail time seems more fair to me.

I depends on the circumstances. When the pregnancy is harmful to the woman and maybe the baby the answer is no. If its an oops or one night stand then yes.

About half of all conceptions do not end in a birth, mostly due to miscarriages...God's abortions. Are we going to investigate all women who conceive and have a miscarriage. That is going too far...as is Democrat support for abortions up until birth and beyond.

Because it's not the government right to regulate women's healthcare.

The government should have no say concerning a woman's right to care for her body. If the issue were concerning men's health care, say- outlawing Viagara, the comments would have a much different tone.

This is a choice between a female and her doctor. Politics must not be involved. This is about control.

It's bad enough that they're having their rights taken without adding a criminal element to it. Not everyone that gets an abortion is doing it for the reasons protesters scream. It's often one of the hardest decisions a woman has to make.

We never won against the ranked teams. Now we made our head coach one the highest paid in the college.

Mizzou football fans and boosters need to make a decision. Are we as content as fans with the job Drinkwitz is doing. If winning 8, 9, or 10 wins a season is good enough, the keep giving Drinkwitz and his staff contract extensions.

Trump and his goons in every state in every department are running it into the ground acting like it's the best thing ever and it's not. People are suffering now more then his first term or even during Biden term

> "Trump and his goons" Goons? It's 2025. Trump is a lot of things, but comparing he and his team continued success to a childish name, you need better sources of your insults. For example, stop using The Rolling Stone as a primary news source.

Then, you prefer the 9% inflation for 4 straight years, instead of 2.9%. Where did you get your economics degree?

That was during a period of worldwide inflation ... and we were actually doing better than most other advanced countries. Inflation is higher now than when Biden left office.

Compare November 2025 to November 2026 ... roughly same and 2026 figure was held down by the government shutdown. Let's check back at this time next year and you try to explain away the recession.

Inflation is less than 1/3rd of when Biden was in office. Fix your calculator.

Biden tactics were destroying the world's economies.

The U.S. dollar dominates the world economy due to its role as the primary reserve currency, backed by the massive U.S. economy, unmatched financial market liquidity, and historical inertia since the 1944 Bretton Woods system. It facilitates 88% of global exchange transactions, 54% of trade
