That's a rather facile analogy. Let me ask you this, a man murders a woman who is 8 months pregnant. Do you really think he didn't take two lives with his actions?
Quote:I realize I'm probably wrong is saying this, but I'm pressing X to doubt that anyone is okay with abortions up to delivery (outside of the scope of a stillborn birth). I don't care if they say woman or birthing person, however. I've got a buddy who changes his name every 3-4 years, so people's choices on adjectives really mean nothing to me at the end of the day.
Sadly, it's not. I listen to Senate and House hearings in the background at work. The standard abortion tactic from the GOP is to ask the person appearing before the committee whether they support elective abortion in the last trimester. The response they get, every single time, is that's a discussion to be had between a woman and her doctor/medical professional. Of course, it's a clear dodge, as for ideologues they cannot allow any crack in the armor. If you won't say you oppose elective abortion in the last trimester then you are saying you support it.
Quote:I mean I'm fine with it, too. If it's done to literally save the life of the mother. Aside from that - nah, fam.
We feel the same way. Sadly, there are some, on both extremes, who don't. Albeit in differing ways.
