I sense a strong conflict within the progressive thought Borg about the cosmetic notion of human rights and the cold reality of the liberal joy of killing human fetuses.

I suppose I'll never get an answer from the progressive "movement" as long as this internal conflict exists.
Ectopic pregnancy.

Should a woman go to prison because the embryo she is carrying implants outside her uterus resulting in hysterectomy and de facto abortion? Implantation outside of the uterus occurs in about 1% of pregnancies, and half of those pregnancies will require medical intervention (i.e., abortion) to preserve the mother's life.

But you ARE the one who has no problem with dead young humans for the sake of feminist idealism.

I could have sworn that the left was a bastion of human rights?

Please provide the quote where I said that was ok, because you cannot.
I'll wait.

Of course not! You are grasping at straws now.

You have yet to explain your love of dead fetuses.

I've tried over and over to get the educated progressive answer to why it is o.k. to fill up dumpsters outside of Abortionist clinics with environmental scientists and fighters for the oppressed that will never be because they were cut out of the wombs of women who didn't want to be inconvenienced with motherhood right now but I have been unable to secure that answer.

So you go ahead and explain yourself and I'll be happy to quote it for you...

Not grasping at straws at all. Happened to me. Nearly died from the resulting hemorrhage. I am alive today because my doctor performed a therapeutic termination --which is, make no mistake, an abortion-- and hysterectomy. I lost nearly half my total blood volume. My husband can be brought to tears by even mentioning it. He thought he'd lost me.

The grasping at straws was by a pro-abortionist trying to dig up unusual circumstances to justify all abortions IMO.

If someone doesn't want to be pregnant there is nothing you can do about it. Go about your life and stop stressing. Instead, be appalled by the conditions the folks who are born live in and put your energies there.

Oh dear God, I am not a pro-abortionist! I am a woman who has had an abortion and has an opinion to share. Wasn't it just a couple of pages ago that two of you were asking to hear from someone who has had an abortion? Here I am, but as I suspected it appears nobody is the least bit interested in what I might have to offer the discussion.

A prior post posed the following challenge...

...and I responded with a circumstance the I believe justifies abortion, one that I personally experienced.

Ectopic pregnancy is far from uncommon. It happens in about 1 in 100 births and half of those will require medical intervention (i.e., abortion). By contrast, Down's Syndrome (trisomy 21) has a rate of 4.6 in 10,000 births. Every obstetrician in practice today has seen or will see a patient with ectopic pregnancy, probably within his first few years after obtaining his license.

This is exactly why I usually don't participate in these discussions. You only want to hear what bolsters the position you already hold. You refuse to confront the very reality that good people have abortions for good reasons because you might have to open yourself to the possibility that you're wrong.
