Abortion is only for cool people who want to have unsafe sex and not feel guilty about it after. Abortion is also popular with politicians who want to have sex with teens. And sluts who are having a busy day.
It's about right and wrong. A given wrong doesn't have to personally affect you, to have compassion for others where it does. Then again, I'm not a Rightist.
Brandy Bottone was driving in the HOV lane meant for at least two people per vehicle in Dallas, Texas, two weeks ago when she was pulled over by police. The officer noted there didn’t seem to be anyone else in the car, but Bottone had a retort – she was 34 weeks pregnant.
“He said, ‘Is there somebody else in the car?’ And, looking around, I said, ‘Yes there is,’ and he said ‘Well, where?’ I pointed at my stomach and I was like, ‘Right here,’” she told CNN on Sunday.
“He said, ‘Well, it’s two bodies outside of the body, so that doesn’t count.’ I was kind of in shock, and I was like, ‘Well, in light of everything that’s happened, and I’m not trying to make a huge political stance here, but do you understand that this is a baby?’” -snip
Good on her, but I suspect she will lose the argument because Rightist love being shameless hypocrites.
when I'm 60-something and get stabbed in the subway by one of the unwanted "miracles" that are being force-birthed, I'll take comfort looking back on your wise words

That'll be a glorious world to live in. Especially all the over crowding and extra pollution. Conservative utopia... until Jesus comes back, of course.
TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) — Kansas voters on Tuesday sent a resounding message about their desire to protect abortion rights, rejecting a ballot measure in a conservative state with deep ties to the anti-abortion movement that would have allowed the Republican-controlled Legislature to tighten restrictions or ban the procedure outright.
It was the first test of voter sentiment after the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision in June that overturned the constitutional right to abortion, providing an unexpected result with potential implications for the coming midterm elections.
While it was just one state, the heavy turnout for an August primary that typically favors Republicans was a major victory for abortion rights advocates. -snip
Kansas Democrats, Independents and a few moderate Republicans came out in force to protect women's rights to govern their own bodies. While this is just one state (for now), Kansas is a deep Red Rightist shithole, so this really says something about how the majority of Americans feel about the SC's decision to overturn Roe V Wade.
A grand jury is set to decide whether an Ohio woman who miscarried a nonviable fetus should face criminal consequences. Brittany Watts, who was reportedly turned into the police after her September miscarriage, has been charged with the fifth-degree felony abuse of a corpse in Trumbull County, Ohio.
Her case has been held up as evidence of how easily pregnant people can find themselves in law enforcement's crosshairs, especially since the overturning of Roe v Wade and amid tightening abortion restrictions in the U.S. If convicted, Watts could spend up to a year behind bars.
