One can be in favor of abortions for medical necessity or when the choice to get pregnant was not consensual while still being wildly opposed to abortions for convenience reasons.
- powerhour 4y agoHow big must the government be to investigate every miscarriage to see whether or not it was deliberate and for medical necessity, or done because the pregnancy was the result of rape? We're talking about hiring a lot of medical professionals and expanding our already large tracking apparatuses. If we're not talking about expanding government along these lines then maybe we should just leave the choice to the people immediately involved.
- EddieDante 4y agoI've known women who have had miscarriages, and I've known women who for various reasons have had to terminate their pregnancies. Abortion is only "convenient" compared to being stuck raising a kid you aren't ready and willing to raise, giving birth to a kid that's going to have special needs because of genetic defects, or trying to carry a pregnancy to term that's likely to kill you.
