The US is not a democracy.

But women aren't too close to the issue of pregnancy? They shouldn't get to decide what to do with their bodies because it is needed to keep a fetus alive?

Do you not see the hypocrisy in your position?

A cat embryo developing in the womb of a cat is not a parasite.

If you think that all animal reproduction (aka survival) is parasitism, I can’t help you.

Again, I am very glad that *you* have access to legal abortion. I can’t imagine how you’d treat any children you might have.

Basic civil rights like the right to decide what medical decisions they can make for themselves?

Those quotes were the actual definition of the word parasite.

Again I have never had an abortion and have children who are productive citizens. That was my CHOICE. Every woman should have the CHOICE to decide for herself.

It's just another white supremacists tactic. It is a measure to counter whites declining birth rates. This is not our cause really. Blk women don’t stand with these women, just sit back and chill.

White supremacists feminists have never Cared about us or Me Too! Blk women ( regardless of wealth, status,education) die 70% more than white women due to giving birth! Blk women are pressured to get abortions and sterilized by Mass Planned Parenthood Centers in Blk neighborhoods!

Maybe white men's soldiers ain't marching strong enough to impregnate their women ?
Are you being serious? I don't recall this law making an exception for black women. And Alabama has a relatively high black population.

You have *parasites* who are productive citizens. Get it right.

Wow! You were one special fetus! Didn’t need a thing from mom. Did you use Uber Eats or Door Dash to order “in” your Taco Bell?? One question: Did you have trouble with cell service? Mine isn’t always great and I’m not floating in a sea of amniotic fluid.

Hard to equate killing babies with basic civil rights like self defense.

Our descriptive language can be subjective, parasite or not, clump of cells or otherwise. As a woman I have the absolute right to control my body anyway I want just as a man has.
