And I've been having sex regularly for nearing a decade now and haven't gotten pregnant, thankfully, but who knows?

I was a birth control baby. My best friend got pregnant while using birth control AND condoms.

Mistakes happen.

Wait...whatever happened to you hating 'nanny states'? Isn't the state forcing a woman to have a child the very definition of a nanny state?

If they weren't raped, then there are consequences for actions, are they not, or should everyone be able to kill things that are not convient to them?

You enable irresponsibility. I'm not one of those people who thinks abortion shouldn't be allowed for rape or the life of the mother. I have a problem with it being used as a form of birth contorl, which just enables irresponsible behavior.

If you knew the option wasn't there, you would be much less likely to engage in the risky behavior, would you not?

Then liberals cry "don't tell me what to do! I should be able to do everything I want!"
No, because I don't engage in 'risky' behavior in the first place. But if abortion were illegal, I can guarantee you women will still find a way to do it.

Wrong, you act like the state is forcing a woman to have sex against her will and have a child, like in the handmaid's tale.. The state is PREVENTING her from unnaturally terminating a natural process.

easy-peasy!


Interpretation:

We should kill unwanted children so there won't be any unwanted children…

Oh, so women are beyond being expected to obey laws? Should rape and murder be legalized becuase they'll just do it anyways?

Oh good, more unwanted children for sanctimonious reactionaries to adopt. I wonder who will be first.
