| Date | 16:41:11, July 06, 2016 CET | From | The Conservative Party | To | Debating the Deny Abortion Act |
| Message | In ending an innocent human's life to save the mother is for the state to choose which life is more valuable. The state has always chosen the mother's life where it may have been appropriate not to do so. The government cannot make exceptions where it pleases. A life is a life is a sacred thing. The line must be drawn. |

| Message | The Conservative Party has a valid point. The state might not always make the correct decision during a medical emergency, as they are (usually) not medical professionals. Therefore, the state cannot make that decision without compromising their agenda, bias, or political views. The Conservative Party is right in stating that the line must be drawn. |
| Date | 17:22:58, July 06, 2016 CET | From | Nationalsozialistische Partei (NSPD) | To | Debating the Deny Abortion Act |
| Message | The state doesn't make the decision, medical professionals do. The state only gives them the means to do so. In what way would saving the mothers life be inappropriate? In the vast majority of cases, we either lose one life or two. I know which I prefer. |
