Is it a crime to eat good you find on the street? Is it a crime to eat something someone drops?

They should be pursued in order of importance, because it all costs time and money. Detaining someone takes the officers off the streets. Paperwork. Space in the cell becomes occupied. All of that...for a bag of chips. I'm sure the shop didn't even press charges because of it, but they too had to waste time to react. This is incompetence. Stealing is a crime, but not every theft requires the full process.

Imagine feeling 'victimised' by people your country is actively oppressing

Eat off of a rug then.

> It has not been deprived of a single experience

Interesting way to put it. Would you say this also applies in the case of abortion?

It is no more locked up than the mother is locking it up.

It has not been deprived of a single experience, nor deprived of a single right that is not outweighed by the fact it is alive.

Man, there’s a lot more to be offended by geez

Friends last words to his Father:

You won't shoot! You don't have the guts!"

He had the guts.

Sadly a true story.

I now need a muffled audio recording of Krang's voice emitting from her in the courtroom.

Oppressors always feel victimized

If you haven’t been banned from r/politics then you weren’t saying anything interesting

Boo wha! It’s artwork by children. Grow the fuck up.

He is a cop and his ego got bruised

Either way, they're already "imprisoned" for ~9 months in the womb - does it really matter whether the mother is imprisoned?

Of course, that assumes that mom gets all required medical care in prison, which seems to not be the case here, so either way something needs to change.

Headline is misleading. This isn’t a scenario where they let the thief skate because of some “cruel and unusual” stipulation. The cop didn’t follow legal protocol for a number of other reasons, so the ag didn’t have enough credible evidence to move forward

> If a mother was lost on a deserted island

Let's be specific to the topic of this post. If a pregnant mother is jailed and her fetus is considered to be a living person. Does the fetus deserve to be locked up if it didn't commit any crimes?

No, it's just you're an obvious liar, and the more you come back to whining about being called out as an obvious liar the more obvious it is that you're a liar.

>That’s exactly how it works.

Except it's not.

>A fetus is a person, or it is not.

There are plenty of "people" who aren't granted rights under the US Constitution

>The law needs to be clear in this.

It is.

That’s exactly how it works. A fetus is a person, or it is not. The law needs to be clear in this.

Not really how it works, but ok.

Then they have to get rid of the anti-abortion laws. Can’t have it both ways.

Then this lawsuit has no merit
