Also, that they have free speech rights.

IIRC the majority of rapes go unreported, so that still leaves the majority of victims without the option of abortion. But that's probably the "best" option, yeah.

Corporate personhood has nothing whatsoever to do with the moral notion of personhood. Corporate personhood is nothing more than saying "the corporation can enter into contracts as one entity, rather than forcing each individual shareholder to sign his name on every contract".
QFMFT. The liberal objection over "corporate personhood" is insane.

Claiming the right to free speech is violated if corporate "people" can't donate unlimited amounts of money to politicians is insane.

From a pro-life perspective, how can one morally support an exception on any grounds other than life of the mother? Agreed. I don't understand this either. A child is a child. How the child was conceived doesn't change the status of the child.

How could we possibly know that, if they are unreported?

(genuinely curious here)
IIUC, they don't report it to the police, but will talk about it to studies/surveys/polls which promise confidentiality.

The right to free speech is violated when the government can literally ban books.

From the perspective of a medical exam, a woman who was raped typically looks no different from any other woman.
I was going to say that you could look for trauma around the throat, but then I remembered Cheryl.

Sorry for the poorly worded digression, boys. I accept my beating.
Carry on.
Take this man to the infinite labyrinth of eternal ice.

If corporations are people then they should pay the same tax rates as people.

If they want to admit they're not people then they can continue essentially paying zero net taxes.

Idiot. What do you called pubic hair, mental trauma, strangulation, hickeys, semen, bruises, torn vaginas? It's not lupus that's for god damn sure. It's RAPE.

The law concerning the Citizens United decision was used to prevent the promotion of a film which was critical of a sitting senator (Hillary Clinton). How's that for insanity?
I genuinely don't get why people here think Citizens United was a good thing. Is it just because it'll lead to more money being spent on Republican campaigning than Democrat? Is it really worth selling your souls for a few more attack ads?

Citizens United also prevented large scale damage to the democracy by prohibiting Congress from suppressing political speech in media --- including the blogs, websites, newspapers, and magazines that you jerk off to --- but let's not get bogged down in logic or reality and just scream partisanship and corruption. You are so stupid it is hard to imagine.

Some of us are rather big fans of the First Amendment.

Our democracy wouldn't have suffered large scale damage from shadowy millionaires not being able to run attack ads against candidates they oppose during election campaigns.
