These babies when aborted are killed when they need their mother the most, but she’s just not there for them. Sad days.
If you're not the father, then it's none of your business. Where are the fathers? Are they too busy screwing other women to act like fathers?

So you want all abortion banned. The woman who refuses to give birth is charged with murder. If found guilty, should she be subject to up to life in prison or death?

Abortion should be renamed "the issue that neither side budges on and is a gigantic waste of time to address when there are other issues in society that could be addressed."

(I was pregnant with my child when I accompanied one friend who was having an abortion. It was a painful experience for me to sit in that clinic, to be honest. But I supported her because it was her decision and I was her friend.)

Hi, C-D posters. It strikes me, as it usually does when the conversation turns to abortion, that rarely does anybody offer up their personal experience. There are many assumptions about who we are and why we abort a pregnancy, which may or may not be true, so I thought I'd offer you the opportunity to ask me any question you see fit to ask, and I'll answer as truthfully as possible for the next hour or so, while I have the time to participate in the conversation. What do you want to know? In the meantime, here are the basics of my story...


When? Twenty-one weeks gestation
Where? University Hospital, Ohio (no longer possible)
Why? Congenital defect
Method? Induction

I have called elderly gentlemen "young man" but they weren't.

Petition the courts/states/POTUS to grant personhood, with all the rights and responsibilities granted to persons, to embryos and fetuses then I will consider your suggestion.
If you kill a pregnant woman, do you think you'll only be charged with a single murder?

In other words, to you, the unborn baby's rights must always rule over the pregnant woman's rights and needs.

women do in fact sometimes die due to pregnancy or childbirth.

but that's not the point.

You're free to believe that an embryo is a person but your belief doesn't mean that you can force that opinion on others.

Don't like abortion? Don't have one. That is your only option, not to compel everyone to do what you happen to believe.

I think the fetal homicides laws drawn up by state legislators have nothing to do with abortion or fetal development. They are politically based and specifically exempt abortion.
