Do you support the idea of removing the embryo or fetus alive, where child protective services can then try to keep it alive until it can be adopted?
Because that's what we do with born children when their parents don't want them.

- anonporridge 4y agoSo you're holding the well being of poor children (whom everyone agrees are people with rights) hostage for the sake of not yet viable or autonomous fetuses? That seems unbelievably evil.

- anonporridge 4y agoI don't believe non viable or non autonomous fetuses are people. But even if they are, nobody has the right to live if they must be parasitically attached to another person's body, including you or I. Someone can certainly volunteer themselves to save a person in that position, but they can't be legally forced into it. There's an argument to be made that I can agree with that more developed fetuses that are close to birth and can theoretically survive out of the womb should be extracted alive, but abortions of that kind are an extreme minority of all abortions.

- anonporridge 4y agoSo you believe that if the fetus is incapable of life outside the womb, the woman is legally obligated to keep it parasitically attached to her? That's a new right that no other person has, and you have to legally justify why a fetus has this special right. At what point in pregnancy do you believe a fetus becomes a person deserving of protection under the law that violates a woman's right to bodily autonomy and privacy?

That's a new right that no other person has, and you have to legally justify why a fetus has this special right. If you discover a stowaway on your airplane while you're in the air, you're legally obligated to keep him onboard until you land. This isn't a new right, though, it's just his right to life trumping your right to property. > At what point in pregnancy do you believe a fetus becomes a person deserving of protection under the law that violates a woman's right to bodily autonomy and privacy? Fertilization.
- randomhodler84 4y agoMagical thinking. You are dangerously misinformed on the medicine side and overloaded with medieval fantasy. Those of us that actually live in the 21st century just look at your belief structure as naive — however we are now in a different phase where your ignorance is causing real harm. I read today that Drs are too scared to prescribe potentially life saving but potentially teratogenic medicine in forced-birth states due to miscarriage risk. Absolutely unacceptable! Get your medieval bullshit out of our modern world.
