The saddest part is that their twisted logic leads them towards behavior that further harms themselves and others. They seek happiness, but run towards more suffering. 💕 For compassionate people, it’s a challenge to try to help them all, but what else to do?

Though, there are individuals who follow anti-social and narcissistic logic and cause massive harm to themselves and others. They become worthy of the label “evil”. Still, it’s good to maintain compassion for them along with their victims and use wisdom to try to disempower them.

The problem occurring in the U.S. is that men without input from women or medical professionals are making up some of these ridiculously rigid and punitive laws in some of the red states. We need more wisdom and less extremism here.

This is not just hypothetical, these are the types of dilemmas that are occurring in states with the most rigid anti-abortion laws. Thus the increase in infant and maternal mortality in those states.

Suppose the doctor says that the only option to save her life is to terminate the pregnancy, but he cannot perform the procedure due to state law?

How about a twelve year old victim of rape facing life threatening medical complications due to the ensuing pregnancy? Should the father be consulted? Such situations are not common, but they happen. As a woman and a mother, what would you advise?

The problem is that overly rigid laws lead to preventable deaths because they tie the doctors’ hands as well as parental choices.

“Maternal Mortality: Data indicate that states with the strictest abortion bans have maternal death rates nearly twice as high as states with abortion access.”

Also, rigid laws contribute to infant mortality: “Following the passage of strict gestational bans (such as Texas's SB8), there was an increase in infant mortality (about 13%), driven primarily by fatal congenital birth defects and mothers are forced to carry doomed pregnancies to term.”

(2) As a man, I don’t have a womb nor ovaries so I am not forced into carrying an unwanted child. I see so many exploited and abandoned children in the world. So now, I think women should have a choice and government should not impose such rigid laws on women and their doctors.

I used to like laws against abortion because I am opposed to killing in any form. However, I can see how men exploit women’s bodies forcing unwanted pregnancies, how pregnancies often have complications needing medical intervention, and how the women I know are quite discerning in their choices.

(2) Then, decent ICE officers with good records and training could be rehired with better policies in place to stop abuses in power. The agency should be renamed, and Stephen Miller/others currently in power should be replaced with more humane/effective leaders. It should be a bipartisan approach.

Thus far, Americans have been remarkably nonviolent in their approach to opposing ICE atrocities. I hope that approach continues because it is the only way that will work without escalating the violence. Defunding ICE is the simplest temporary, nonviolent solution. (1)

The other thing that the majority of Americans want is an end to the thug like behavior of ICE agents attacking people on the streets and warehousing them in inhumane conditions. We want to defund ICE and find a more reasonable approach to managing immigration.

Yes, many of the world leaders are currently playing a dangerous game of brinkmanship with Putin and Russia. It’s understandable given his murderous destruction of Ukraine, but we all must proceed cautiously to deescalate while protecting Ukraine, Gaza, and other vulnerable populations.

I think the majority of US citizens want Trump and MAGAts out of office. We want corruption and big money interests out of politics. We want peace internationally. We want environmentally sound policies, healthcare, and a reasonable cost of living. That’s why Trump is trying to undermine elections.
