Pro-religious liberty. Abortion should be legal and between a woman and God, if she believes.

Well, let's see. I've definitely killed some bugs in my time. I didn't *enjoy* it, but you know, sometimes it has to be done.

I had my beloved dog euthanized a few years ago, so I guess you can say I authorized "killing" him. I didn't enjoy that at all, it was brutally sad, but he was very sick and no longer enjoying his life.

Not sure I've ever killed anything else, except maybe a bottle of wine on a Saturday night.

No, it's definitely not funny. Just like the young woman I know who was very pro-life, got pregnant and the boyfriend said he would leave her if she didn't abort the baby, it was just a clump of cells. He took her to the clinic and was gone when she came out.

She regrets that decision, she was young and in love. She lost her boyfriend, her baby and now she miscarries every time she gets pregnant.

She's not the only one.

I do know many liberals with a working knowledge of basic biology, though. They can define a zygote, fetus, and infant correctly, even.
Late term abortions are infanticide, like it or NOT.

Late term, third trimester, abortions are not elective. They are done for medical reasons.

And infanticide has a legal definition, you aren't using the word correctly in your post.

How "very" pro-life was she if she had an abortion because someone told her to?


It also sounds like she would have miscarried that first pregnancy.

Late-term termination of non-viable fetuses happens. The accounts I've read of it sound painfully sad for the woman who makes that decision.

If it makes you happy to kick her when she's down and call her a baby killer, be my guest.

Now, go look up the meaning of facetious, but don't tell anyone. It's our little secret.
There are plenty of conservatives or women who aren't on either political side who get abortions, sounds like you're trying the "No True Scotsman Fallacy"
