On Abortion

The abortion "rights" issue has cropped up lately as Alabama banned abortions.  Celebrities have thrown their worthless opinions out there, and folks of all persuasions have chimed in.  Make no mistake, abortion is the abomination of our time. 

Among my favorite pro-murder "comebacks" are:

1. What about cases of rape/incest/mother's life in jeopardy?
- Rape is listed as the reason for abortion 0.085% of the time.  Since there is no measure as to whether it was  legitimately rape, this statistic is likely to be much higher than reality. 
- Incest is listed as the reason 0.001% of the time.  Like "rape," the legitimacy is not verified, so the actual number is almost guaranteed to be orders of magnitude lower.  

- Mother's life in jeopardy is listed as the reason 0.065% of the time.  Doctors can be wrong, so again the actual number is likely lower - but probably not as much lower as the prior two. 

So these categories combine for a whopping 0.151% of all abortions. 

This is certainly a case of the exception proves the rule.  Abortion is performed for the "convenience" of escaping consequences of poor decisions the vast majority of the time.  This is the rule.  Your imagined exceptions prove the rule. 

Also - for rape, specifically - why murder a baby for the crimes of the baby's father?

2. Planned Parenthood does so much more than just abortions. 
Planned Parenthood's 3% claim is false - this from the Washington Post... not exactly a Pro-Life outfit!

No matter which source you find, abortion services constitute 20%-25% of Planned Parenthood's revenues annually.  Considering they get roughly 50% of their revenue from government funding and another 20%-23% of their funding from charitable contributions, virtually all of their service revenues come from abortions. 

And remember, your tax dollars fund those abortions.

3. Abortion is a Constitutional right.
Yep... and the same dolts will tell you that ownership of firearms is not a Constitutional right. 

4. You are just pro-birth, not pro-life. Because you don't want to provide [insert free shit here] for the child once it's born.
Distraction.  You are clearly trying to steer away from a pro-murder position. 

Ironically, this argument actually proves the convenience argument from the Pro-Life side. 

5. It can be a hard decision for a young woman. 
Yes. Deciding not to murder someone can be a difficult choice. 

6. Men are responsible for 100% of unwanted pregnancies.
And women are responsible for 100% of abortion infant murders.  Two wrongs never make a right. 

Final thoughts
Alabama didn't restrict women's rights.  They became a sanctuary state for unborn babies.
