"And how should I presume?"

some facts:

• childbirth is 14 times more deadly than legal abortion so do not try to use the argument that abortion is unsafe oh my god
• things that lower abortion rates: contraception, free childcare, affordable healthcare, education
• 87% of counties lack an abortion provider and 35% of women live in those counties
• in 2012 alone, 43 abortion restrictions were enacted in 19 states
• education increases employment rate which increases income which increases access to health care 
• federal medicaid funds cover abortion only in cases of rape, incest, and life endangerment 
• lacking insurance coverage, poor and low-income women often need considerable time to come up with the money to pay for an abortion
• one in five people who are pregnant will witness domestic violence in pregnancy
• pregnancy is a common tool used to keep people in abusive relationships
• abortion does not cause breast cancer. (here’s another source as well)
• people often feel relief and happiness after an abortion
• only 2% of the american population adopts
• in 2010 approximately 408,425 kids were in the US foster system
• there are 68,000 to 70,000 people who die of illegal abortions per year
• VERY VERY IMPORTANT: The inclusivity of trans* people is important and necessary in the abortion debate!!!!!!!

and to talk about morality:

• dont make martyrs out of aborted fetuses
• respect the right, reduce the need
• no matter what a person’s reasons for getting an abortion are it against a person’s bodily rights to force them to remain pregnant
• there’s no such thing as equal rights for the unborn considering if a pregnant person did not want to be pregnant with said unborn child, said unborn child would have to violate the rights of the pregnant person to stay and grow inside of that unwilling pregnant person’s body against that unwilling pregnant person’s wishes
• “the decision whether or not to bear a child is central to a woman’s life, to her well-being and dignity. when the government controls that decision for her, she is being treated as less than a full adult human responsible for her own choices.” - justice ruth bader ginsburg
• “Forcing a woman to wait three days and consult with some asshole trying to convince her not to abort will not change the fact that that woman does not want to have a child. Even if it changes her mind about terminating the pregnancy, it doesn’t change whatever circumstances brought her to an abortion clinic in the first place. She’ll still walk out just as devoid of choices, just as un- or underemployed, just as broke, just as in debt, just as uninsured, just as lacking daycare, just as unable to care for herself and/or her existing children, just as in need of medication that she can’t take while pregnant, just as enmeshed in an unhealthy or abusive relationship, just the same as she was when she walked in. She’ll just have been guilted into making sacrifices she doesn’t want to make, to honor someone else’s mistaken perceptions about her morality.”
• it confuses me as to how a fetus is supposed to have all these rights to grow and be born while a fully grown pregnant person’s bodily rights/ownership seemingly disappear with ejaculation

totally a clump of cells right. I thought that was hunk of deer meat, but no, that’s the lost life of an innocent baby. Who would have ever guessed? :O

never heard of photoshop

or the fact that THE VAST MAJORITY OF ABORTIONS OCCUR BEFORE WEEK 13

THAT IS A CLUMP OF CELLS IN WEEK 13

get your appropriative antisemitic white goyish ass off of our history

THAT FUCKING PICTURE

THAT

FUCKING

PICTURE

gospelfuzzy I’m guessing you don’t know what it’s like to lose a wanted child but I do and I am in tears right now because of that picture

how DARE you use someone’s pain to score political points while you lie, you slavering bastard?

I’m sorry I did not know how to make it an option to click on it to view it. This most likely was not a “wanted child”, somebody chose to have it aborted. This picture would not exist if abortion was illegal. Sorry.

Did you just miss literally everything people have been telling you?

1. You have no idea where that picture came from, and the advancement of development means that it’s actually more likely for it to have been wanted than if it was just an abortion, because by the time things get that far, it’s either to save the mother’s life or a miscarriage, not an elective abortion.

2. Even if that was an abortion, you still cannot compare it to the Holocaust, because the Holocaust is so vastly different that you simply cannot compare the two. The Holocaust involved more than murder.

3. Abortions would still happen illegally, like they did before Roe v. Wade, if it were outlawed. The only difference would be that rape survivors, teenagers, and people who cannot bear children for health reasons would die, either from the stress of the pregnancy or from botched back-alley abortions. Are you seriously advocating for those people to die? Because that’s what your ban on abortion would cause.

tl;dr: Do not talk shit if you don’t know what you’re talking about. And don’t say sorry when you clearly are not.

There is no difference in the lack ok justice from a Jew killed in a gas chamber, or a baby killed in the womb. Murder is murder, and those who support it are just as evil as the ones who carry out the disgusting and satanic act.

how dare you

HOW FUCKING DARE YOU

compare the systematic and brutal murder of breathing, thinking people to a fetus (not a child by the way)

by the way, many holocaust survivors (maybe you’ve heard of elie wiesel?) have been outspoken advocates of reproductive freedom— please, please go find one, look them in the eye, and tell them they are the same as the nazis who put them in death camps. do it. 

and then find one of the many women who helped women in concentration camps who had been raped and become pregnant by the guards to abort so they wouldn’t bring a child into that world and tell them they are just as bad as nazis. do it.

can you? 

Starting a sentence with “I understand [horrible thing], but” proves that you don’t, in fact, understand that horrible thing. I could go into the myriad things that Holocaust survivors have experienced that fetuses cannot (rape, starvation, disease, medical experimentation on live subjects without anesthesia), but somehow I doubt that you are capable of understanding just how unlike the Holocaust abortion actually is, or you wouldn’t make the comparison in the first place.

The Holocaust involved more than just murder. Regardless of your position on abortion, you cannot compare the two.
