Abortion is murder, there’s no other rational view.

I have the feeling that most people who are pro-choice would be horrified if some parent were to dismember a toddler and drop their body parts in the trash for pickup because they didn’t feel like providing it shelter and food anymore.

“Oh, but you can give the kid up for adoption then!” Sure, but that’s not an instant process. It takes… checks notes about a year. Nine months if you’re lucky.

None of the arguments that supposedly justify abortion are limited to the prenatal case: they all apply just as equally well to “being forced to care for” a child that is already born.

From what I can tell, it’s actually easier to be pregnant than to care for a newborn. Pregnancy, for the most part, just proceeds automatically; there is discomfort and morning sickness and a growing belly, but you don’t have to actually do anything to make it happen, nor does it impinge nearly as much on your choices in life. Caring for a small child requires far more positive intervention, where what you wanted to do is completely overridden by what you have to do so the child does not die.

Also weird to describe it as “having to let,” as if there was not action that people take that causes pregnancy. Just “fell pregnant,” so strange!
