Reply to comment by chadan1008 in Court: Abortion doctors can’t be charged under Arizona law by Freexscsa

We tried they argument. As well as other arguments over the years to help them to see that abortion can be necessary, like to save the mother’s life or rape or a 10 year old, etc. in EVERY case, that resulted in them becoming more extreme, not less, and now there are those pressing for abortion to be punished by the death penalty.

Yep. There is no reasoning with them. We must show up at the polls and vote for only those politicians in a political party that supports reproductive rights/body autonomy. This means voting strictly for Democrats, as the Republican Party wants to not only control reproductive rights but also wants control of body autonomy.

I've tried talking to people that say they support abortion "when it makes sense" like with rape cases and ectopic pregnancies, but they still seem to be OK with those things because they support anti-abortion bills at large. They want abortion to be illegal but with some exceptions, that simply isn't possible in today's climate, it's all or nothing, no nuance. I feel that even if I personally was pro-life I would much rather be on the side that provides options.
I've heard people say that they need to force the 10 year old rape victim to have a baby because the "baby was innocent". They say extremely cruel shit and think they are morally superior.
