I really prefer your way of framing it, and I wish it was how all pro-choice arguments were made. This debate cannot be won by arguing over when life begins (whatever that even means, given that sperm and egg cells are alive before fertilization occurs). The crux of the matter is bodily autonomy, which means that even…

Doncha just love how women like this who take advantage of the hard work of feminists (like getting to vote, much less hold public office) instead of staying home and taking care of all the babies they can push out and then volunteering in the neo-natal unit for the rest of their lives. Somebody needs to remind her…

But remember: there’s no war on women. And much of this is being done to protect women’s health, obvs.

This makes me sick. Maybe pro-life organizations should help this woman with her medical bills and any care that rape baby is going to need. Unless their concern is only for the fetus.

Gross. But honestly, I respect people who hold this view slightlymore than the anti-choicers who abortion is okay in the case of rape or incest. The fetus in those situations are the same as ones conceived through other scenarios. At least these people have a more consistent ideology, as abhorrent as it is.

I have no words for this “woman.” None.

Party of small government. So small they feel free to ram it up our vaginas. Party of fiscal responsibility. Continuously spends massive amounts on investigations into Planned Parenthood and pushing through Personhood laws instead of infrastructure strengthening, jobs growth or anything actually government related.

Sent her a nice email.

Irrelevant. A person doesn’t have a right to someone else’s body. We can’t require a woman to carry a baby just like we can't require someone to give blood or donate a kidney.

How can people think this way? Oh, hey, God’s ultimate plan for me was to be violated in the worst way possible by some violent sick bastard and then carry his child to term. Who cares if I had other plans for my life or I was 16 years old? God knew that I needed to drop everything and be a star parent while ignoring…

If they were really worried about finding and punishing the rapists, they might want to get started on the backlog of rape kits. This time last year, Kansas City alone had over 1300 untested rape kits and I would not be surprised if that number has gone up.

I usually add: a seed is not a tree, an egg is not a chicken, a fetus is not a person.

“You’re a hateful, controlling, abusive, misogynistic group that has constantly tried to shove your religion INTO everyone else.”

So you Republicans

Mike Moon went for an old standby, likening it to the Holocaust: “The silence of those who want to protect the unborn is similar to the silence of Germans who stood by and allowed Jewish people to be slaughtered by the Nazis.”

She probably is a hypocrite, but I just don’t understand how these people say they believe a fetus is a fully developed human, and then say there can be exceptions. I think it is just proof that they don’t actually believe what they are saying and they just want to control and punish women.

Why is this woman talking? Her place is at home with her kids.

“I do not believe in America it is right to punish innocent people for someone else’s crime; that is not our system of justice,”

It’s not a baby til it’s outside the womb, moron. For much of the gestational period, it’s a fetus. A goddamn parasite that can’t survive without its host. But, hey, that’s sciency stuff, and who needs that when you’re doing The Lord’s Work (TM)?
