From | | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | Wishful thinking, fact of the matter is abortions will happen whether or not they are allowed by the state. It would be better to promote alternatives, such as adoption, contraceptives and abstinence. |

From | Dorvish Popular Front | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | Of course there is always the option of adoption, contraceptives and abstinance whether people choose to use them is their decision. Murder still happens, maybe that should be legalised? |
| Date | not recorded |
From | Dorvik Conservative Party | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | How about we come to a compromise. Say, abortion is legal only under certain circumstances. What do you think? |
| Date | not recorded |
From | | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | My main concern is that abortions are carried out in a humane manner. Forbidding third trimester abortions has already helped immensely, in my opinion. I would consider restricting it to only first trimester abortions, but it is ridiculous to force someone to bear a child that may put their life at risk or if they were raped. |

From | Dorvish Popular Front | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | Why humane? If you think they must be humane you are admitting the embryo is alive, which makes it murder. I think the baby should have rights and abortions should only be allowed if the mothers life is in danger. |

From | | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | I am saying that even animals get humane deaths (well, I suppose you are in favor of changing that...) |

From | Noordelijk Bevrijding Front | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | This is an invasion of the mothers rights, this will simply increase backstreet abortions and lead to a breakdown of the family unit the NDU so love |
| Date | not recorded |
From | Noordelijk Bevrijding Front | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | After being absent i can say with some disdain the rise of the right has been unchecked. When i called the NDU fascist i was ignored but yet we are seeing there true colours. I TOLD YOU SO. |

From | Dorvish Popular Front | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | So you say even animals get humane deaths...animals are alive!! Do you believe the embryo is alive? If so, a humane death is still murder. If not, why do you think humanity matters? |
| Date | not recorded |
From | | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | It will be alive, yes, but the rights of the infant to live and the rights of women must be balanced. My compromise is that abortions are discouraged and that they are carried out early on and as humanely as possible. |
| Date | not recorded |
From | Dorvish Popular Front | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | Abortion isnt a form of contraception, it is a human life being murdered. If you allow abortions, careless people will have unprotected sex, saying 'we can just abort it'. Although we support a full ban, medical emergencies is a fair compromise. |
| Date | not recorded |
From | | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | Is rape considered a medical emergency? |
| Date | not recorded |
From | | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | In that case, I will vote yes. |

From | Dorvish Popular Front | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | Good to have you on board. Dont listen to the propaganda calling us Nazis, we are just a party with the best interests of Dorvik at heart. |
| Date | not recorded |
From | | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | I believe I was one of the ones calling you nazis. Furthermore, your own platform is nationalism, religious values and socialism - National Socialism... :) |
| Date | not recorded |
From | Dorvish Popular Front | To | Debating the Abortion Act | | Message | Not religion per se, you dont have to be religous to recognise the rights of an unborn human, you dont have to be religous to think prostitution is an offence against human dignity, you dont have to be religous to see the havoc gambling can cause on peoples lives. Anyway, we dont believe this bill is far enough we shall continue our fight until abortion is illegal! |
