the left sort of thinks human beings have what the constitution would put in the language of "inalienable rights"


rights granted to human being simple by definition


the right thinks that humans must "earn" those rights....a sort of twisted application of capitalism were everything is earned..lol...and guess which "side" continuously blabbers on about the constitution and of course capitalism

After a baby exits the womb, it is the parents' responsibility to provide for and take care of it.

Correct?

Correct?
What if the child has severe birth defects that require extensive medical and home care throughout the child's life thereby making employment impossible for those parents and thus they lose health insurance? Then who should pay for the medical bills and living expenses for the entire family?

Pro life and doing God's will until it comes to the death penalty where holier than you Christians think mortals can make and dish out final judgment
Can’t feed them, don’t breed them.

A bit crudely put but yes, this is why abortion is a safe, legal medical procedure.

Because it isn't about and never has been about life or the babies. It's about controlling women and enforcing patriarchy.

If the GOP were truly pro-life, they would be fighting and legislating to help save the lives of these people:

-immigrants fleeing violence

-those who cannot afford health insurance

-those who cannot afford life saving medications

-those killed in the US by gun violence
I would like to add one:

-those who could be saved with a transplant from a living donor.

You will not see the majority of pro-lifers signing up to donate a piece of their liver or some bone marrow and you will never see any pro-life organizations urging them to do so.

Life isn't THAT sacred.
