Current Mood: | Re: Debate #1 discussion korimyr vs talloulou First argument was presented, and so were "facts" and "statistics" yet no source was cited to back up the claims. Hope to see better. |

Extremity is so self-serving.

Extremity is so self-serving.  | Couldnt agree more.....these two have a chance in the thread to really clarify parts of this issue for the rest of us.....hope they can do it. |

Topic: Legal/social ramifications of the removal of Roe vs. Wade
| First, I would like to compliment both korimyr and talloulou for the quality of the debate they presented us. I felt their positions were well communicated and their discourse was always respectful.
I wish that a tie vote were an option, because I found it very difficult to discern a clear winner between the two. I also believe that the subject matter proved to be difficult because it required them to predict a future outcome. In the end, korimyr tipped my vote by his prediction that the poor or least able to raise a child would bear a greater burden if Roe v. Wade were overturned.
Excellent job to you both.  |
