Abortion is simply the powerful killing the weakest among us.

Between 1970 and 2015, CDC reports nearly 45.7 million legal induced abortions. That's killing more than the population of Canada......by supposedly educated Doctors.....

Well apparently we want to be the Christian version of the Islamic world. Is Saudi Arabia and Iran first world or third world? There’s your answer.

Pre Roe v Wade, abortion was not illegal all over. It was a states rights issue.

It is a bold-faced LIE that full or near full term babies are born (note the word) and then killed by doctors as some kind of "abortion." Doesn't happen. Literally does.not.happen. That is homicide and doing so would be a crime punishable by life in prison or in some states the death penalty. No doctor has ever been convicted of such a thing in this country.

Time to put that lie to rest once and for all.

"Late term" abortions are those that occur between 21 and 24 weeks. They account for 1% to 1.3% of all abortions and are done for specific reasons, not because someone feels like it on a whim. The law already limits those procedures.

The number of people who are misinformed not only about reproduction, how it happens, when it happens, how birth control hormones work and how they don't work is staggering. The primary senatorial writers of the OH ban and GA bans have no idea about reproduction.

- One falsely says the pill (birth control pill) is a form of abortion. It isn't, not even close.

- Another claims that immediately after sex a man can take the woman to a clinic and the clinic can find out if she's pregnant. Nope, the most sensitive test medically available can only determine such a thing after 8 days *at the earliest*. A woman will often have no idea she is or could be pregnant for several weeks.

- The senator who sponsored the OH bill/ban says the state will cover the cost of taking an embryo from a ectopic pregnancy and implanting it into the woman's uterus and that's not considered an 'abortion.' No such procedure exists. It can't be done. An ectopic pregnancy cannot be saved and it can be a life threatening condition for the woman. How do they not know this?

Donald needs to disassociate himself from Holyroller issues like Abortion, and stick to the issues that got him elected (trade, and immigration).
I don’t know about throwing the election, but I can’t see how abortion as an issue helps Trump in the general election. It’s hard to see how he could squeeze many more votes out of the Christian conservatives. He’s had them all along. But as unpopular as Trump is with young women already, the net effect could be boosting turnout by young women.

thoroughly modern Millie cant be bothered with a baby, its offensive to her
It's not just the pregnancy, it's the 18 year commitment after that as well. It's not the trivial issue you make it out to be, especially for the poor

Kind of hope it will be overturned just for the ha-ha's and inevitable blaming of Trump.

While overturn is doubtful, I could see the heartbeat bills being upheld, as the issue reaches the SC.

2016 was the election that mattered for SC, from then, until the decade of the 2040s, at least.

Gorsuch & Kavanaugh, such youthful voices for the Strict Constitutionalists, conservative Americans.

Majority of abortion clinics target folks of minirity.

Eugenics in action.

I don't understand why folks can't agree to compromise on rape victims, health of mother etc. Not so sure about using abortion for financial issues, but hey, there could be a state for that.
