What did he say that was so bad WP? Sorry but I don’t have a herald Sun subscription.
Is he against abortion? I’m not trying to start a debate or anything I actually am interested in what he has said that is so bad in your opinion and the nature of the why he is getting booted from the libs.
[(caveat) I’m pro life too and I personally don’t think a baby should be terminated for any reason as that is because of my strong religious beliefs]
Yes he is very much anti-abortion which is his choice. He said he was looking forward to the US Supreme Court reversing "Roe -v- Wade", common sense he called it
But the comment that has angered people and will finally get him kicked out of his party and hopefully parliament in November related to rape victims
He was asked about abortion and rape victims and if he supported abortion for victims of rape. He said no because a child should not die because of the SINS of their parents
Nor sure how a woman being raped is a sin. Pro-life or Pro-abortion it was a disgraceful thing to say. But standard for Bernie
Tigeritis, if you read my posts about Bernie you will see I am not a fan. He is simply a vile person and it has nothing to do with his religious beliefs. Although the fact Bernie cannot or refuses to separate religion from his role as a politician is just another example of why I have zero respect for the man.
Thanks WP. I appreciate your reply.
I personally had no clue about Bernie at all and have not paid much attention to local politics for some time. I guess it’s time I made more effort on that front.
In terms of the offensive statement that you quoted
“a child should not die because of the SINS of their parents”
It would’ve been more appropriate or less offensive if he said
sins of the father.
It’s an extremely contentious subject for many.
If only that was the sole criteria for termination.
Unfortunately it caters for only a tiny minuscule percentage of overall cases. I can only thank God that someone very close to me didn’t fall victim of that emotionally difficult decision due to the heinous crimes of another.
Thanks again for your reply.
