    Nah, you don’t really believe that.

    You already know that in an abortion, no one is typically killing the fetus (which btw is less of a human than a chicken egg is human), they’re just removing it from the body it’s parasiting off of. Not the mother’s fault it can’t survive, and I’m pretty sure you’re for curing cancer or tape worm which also contain more human dna than a fetus does.

    Besides, in many cases the fetus is already dead or terminal anyway.

    And even if this was codified under law as murder, it wouldn’t be the mother doing it, but a licensed professional, much like police, soldiers or wardens.

    Thats’s a lot of mental gymnastics to insert yourself into someone’s health care and sex life. That’s kind of weird…

      Republicans have spread this myth that women use abortion like birth control. Just like the myth of the black welfare Queen, spitting out kids just to draw a check. It’s all bullshit and they know it, they just hate poor people.

      tape worm which also contain more human dna than a fetus does.

      Not that im disagreeing with your overall argument, but a fetus has 100% human dna… otherwise it wouldnt develop into a human lol

        A fetus does indeed have 100% human DNA, but a tape worm has about 70% human DNA.

        An 8 week fetus is about 20 g, an 8 week tape worm can become up to 30 ft, weighing several pounds. 70 % of a pound is more than 20 g.

        And with the new slave mother laws, the fetus isn’t more than a handful of grams at the cut off date, making it all the more poignant.
