Except while a fetus, but the concept is the same, isn't it?

That line of argument was already discussed. Come back when you find something new

Btw-there is a separate abortion discussion. This one is more about protests

somebody explain what the protesters wanted and what they got?

You could you know.. read the thread?

But generally the protests are against making the abortion law stricter and banning abortion due to fetal abnormalities

Food / Is Społem popular in Poland [8]

In my hometown we still have a few including one in the square.

Plus:
-usually good/great localized
-local produce 99%. I even once saw.a farmer just delivering some leeks,lettuce etc in a small hand held wagon
-usually pretty good selection of goods considering space.

Cons:
-awful, and I mean AWFUL customer service. That takes like first 10 places
-no promotions etc. Flat, not so low, prices.
-outdated, not nice interior. unaesthetic

Love / WHAT TRAITS DO POLISH MEN LOOK FOR IN A FEMALE? [34]

Wow, that's quite a list you've got there.

1. I hope you understand that most people don't give a damn about nobility? It doesn't cross their mind at all.

2. Are you willing to stay at home to look after the kids for few years? And how many is 'several' (I believe the word comes from the number 7... :) )

3. Will the age threshold increase with you getting older?

4. I hope you take into account the changes all those kids will do to her body...

6. Yeah, it is important to have similar worldviews/outlook on life. However judging by your posts your faith is the very center and 99.9% of people I know are not like that.

7. What is an intellectual show off?

11. What does 'pushy about sex' mean?

Generally I don't believe in lists like that. We meet someone and either we 'buy' the whole package or not. But good luck in sesrching

are not de facto lethal

And yet even if they are lethal a women will have to carry the baby and give birth.

but I guess some people organize demonstrations now so as to ride the wave of emotions

People are angry. They have every right to be. A delicate balance of many years was broken. If the government thought they will get away with it scot free they were dreaming

Konfederacja saying that german anarchists are pouring over the border and joining the protests.

Oh yeah, if Konfederacja said so it must be true...

There is no legal abortions happening now anyway due to the pandemic. It's stupid to protest now.

Tell that to the government who decided to do it now.Why couldn't they just wait to the end of pandemic?

And who told you there is no abortions now?

that would be a reasonable and responsible thing to do

No, it would be stupid to do so. It would be way overdue, everybody would be like 'why now suddenly' and it would force many families to deal with the current change .

Why the government doesn't say ok, it seems there is a lot of social unrest, we will keep the old rules till the end of pandemic? Wouldn't that be responsible?

you see a problem with that?

If that is what they want - no. But the choice should be theirs. Especially if it's the case of the lethal diseases.

over 40 per cent of legal abortions in Poland were cases of suspected Down syndrome

And the remaining over 50%?

there is no censorship introduced - there are no opposition media outlets closed

Yes, but we have the fate of many families at stake. Not for a year or two but for many years to come.

What ppl should do in your opinion? Do you think protests in a year time would make any sense? And how many women would be affected in that time?

thinking reasoning people who chose to endanger their families

So they should accept anything government does? Seriously? If it was banning Catolicism would you sit nicely and quietly at home?

If people can go to churches and could attend political meetings they can definitely protest in an open air.

strange kind of logic

What is strange about it?
Either PiS did it now because they hoped ppl won't protest or they did it to distract ppl from Covid. Either way it's on them.

Protesting half a year or a year would be pointless

These police officers possibly risked their job but I love seeing it.

I think they really underestimated how strongly people think about it.

(if such doesn't exist already

They do. If pregnancy is early they simply order the drugs online. If it's later they help you organise everything. In an article I read the women said it was 500 euro for abortion in Berlin

Forcing a women to carry and give birth to a baby that won't survive the birth or die soon after is awful in my opinion.

I think it will backfire. Women will be even less eager to get pregnant. And if they will find out the baby is sick they will be more likely to abort. Instead of going home and discussing with the father, maybe parents and siblings she will run home to google 'abortion Czech' and keep her mouth shut. More fear will work against keeping the baby
