Argentina Legalizes Abortion; A Milestone In A Very Conservative Region

BUENOS AIRES — Argentina on Wednesday became the largest nation in Latin America to legalize abortion, a landmark vote in a conservative region and a victory for a grass-roots movement that turned years of rallies into political power.

The high-stakes vote, during 12 hours of often dramatic debate in the Senate, gripped the nation and exposed the tensions between a conservative society long influenced by the Roman Catholic Church, and a more secular generation that is fired up by a growing feminist movement.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

I don't see how we humans cannot stop the occurrence of unwelcome pregnancies. We have the technology. Now comes the education and the availability in the people's hands.

Do some people eat fetuses for breakfast? This adoration for Hoovering a living thing out of a body. So sick and barbaric.

Good news. Government and politicians should never be involved in such a personal decision.

The anti-abortion movement always was phony, anyway.

In this world, humans are in danger all of the time in many situations, and nobody cares. How many people live in war zones or just plain poverty? Just in this country alone, this week, one of the "pro-lifes" on USMB responded to a story about a woman trying to feed three kids on no income with a smirky "where's her husband" rather than figuring out how to feed these kids. The "pro-lifes," even in the times before Covid, never put out any plan about where unwanted babies go once they are born. Nothing. Now the ranks of foster kids are swelling, and they aren't finding homes.

We have the technology to greatly lessen the instance of unwanted pregnancy, and all society needs to do is get it in the right hands, but this is opposed by the "pro-lifes," who apparently would prefer abortion. What do they want? What is their motive? They have something up their sleeves but don't want to talk about it. We know that humans have had sex since the beginning of time and that most of the time the men and women who do it don't want an offspring. Saying that I heard as a child about parents of seven or eight: "Catholic or careless?"

With this sort of bizarre and sly behavior, there is no reason to allow these people to dictate public policy for the entire nation.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 10:28)(10:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.

I focus on what I would love. And what I would love is for this team to have success."

ChristinaIt is time for a full evaluation and accountability to the people of this region for the disastrous batting performance of the West Indies Cricket Team. We cannot disregard what all of us witnessed and endured in the last three test matches. This is not about our players, administrators, or any individual; it is an entire system that is failing, and together, all of us must fix it now. This cannot continue into another series; we must not allow it to.(15.07.2025, 15:52)(15:52)0
