So, you are OK with pregnant girls who are desperate to not have a baby dying when they get an abortion from some fake doctor using a knitting needle or coathanger?
When Roe was decided, our doctor where we lived in North Texas closed his family practice, and started performing abortions. He said "I never want to see another teenage girl bleeding to death from a butcher job by an unqualified person".
For most teenagers who have a baby, their life is over until their mid-30's. No college, just an endless string of menial jobs that barely pay enough to live on, unable to properly care for the child, and the baby's father is nowhere to be found.
Pre-viability fetuses are little more than a clump of cells. No pain receptors, no heart, none of that stuff. Feel free to not have an abortion of your own, but don't you dare get all high and mighty and self righteous and tell some other woman she has to follow your dictates. It's none of your business. Period.
We are past the days of coat hangers and knitting needles back alley or not. Nice drama though!
I’m tired of children being run over at Christmas parades because we put no value on human life.
If the baby stayed 2 inches long they wouldn’t have to abort it, would they?
And the ugly truth is that many women are traumatized by their choice. They feel guilt and remorse and shame. Some women become unable to carry a child to term later.
The idea that women breeze in and out of an abortion like it’s getting their hair done is a terrible lie.
And just as many think they made the right decision. But if these women are traumatized by their choice then that's on them. No one forced them to have an abortion.
It’s time to get rid of Roe v. Wade. An awful decision that resulted in the murder of 60 million innocent defenseless children.
And who is going to take care of them once they are born. We can't even take care of the ones already here in foster care. And you want to add more to the system. If they are special needs they will need lifelong care which takes money. If families can't afford them then they will go on welfare. Who's going to pay for the medical bills if they have no insurance. We all will. If you want them born then you need to have a plan with how we are going to pay for them. I guess our taxes will have to be raised.

Studies “estimate that there are about 2 million couples currently waiting to adopt in the United States — which means there are as many as 36 waiting families for every one child who is placed for adoption. Based on this couples waiting to adopt statistic, many couples are waiting to adopt.”
“Consider this: about 10 percent of women in the United States — 6.1 million — have difficulty getting or staying pregnant. While not all women facing infertility will pursue adoption, a 2002 study by the Centers for Disease Control shows that more than half (57 percent) of women who use infertility services do consider adoption.”

“...according to one study covering families looking to adopt statistics, about 81.5 million Americans have considered adopting a child at one time in their lives. That’s about 40 percent of all U.S. adults, up from 36 percent in 1997...”

Since the Biden administration can find billions to pay illegal aliens I’m sure we can do the same for American citizens.

We encourage adoption of cats and dogs to avoid them being put down...why don’t we encourage human adoption?
I know at least 10 couples who have adopted outside the US, because the process to adopt in the US is too long and too expensive.
Well that's just great isn't it. So let's just add more kids to the system then, who will never be adopted. We already have hundreds of thousands kids waiting to be adopted. I can't imagine adding more. It must be a pretty sad existence for many of them never feeling the love of a family.

Well then don't complain about our tax dollars paying for welfare or food stamps. But honestly, why don't we take care of the children who are already here and need a family.
As others have explained, if someone else were to kill the baby, that person would rightfully be charged with murder.
When a woman has an abortion, it is a soul that is extinguished, a life that never gets lived. Make no mistake that it is a person—those body parts are salvaged and are valuable.
Look at it this way: the reason women want abortions is because that “thing” growing inside them is a person. It’s not a kitten or a robot or a doll. It is a human being, and they don’t want it.
Do you think a woman should be forced to birth what would be her rapist's offspring ?
