Texas bans abortion

A lesser objection.

Which would be the person performing an abortion.

Again- if you believe this is killing- then how would the potential mother not be culpable? She is contracting with someone for the “killing” but somehow she isn’t liable?

[FlameHeart]

Many women do not know the consequences that abortion may have.

It isn’t exactly something that is taught in sex ed.

See above post.

With the “clinics going bankrupt” issue, I don’t see how that would be possible if abortions are a small fraction of the services they provide, as people here have said in the past.

They would get a loss in revenue, but it wouldn’t be that big of a loss, right?

It would be the cost of lawyers to defend against the new civil litigation where anyone can sue.

Women…are…dumb? They don’t know what they are doing but an abortion doctor does? Come on…

How do you believe it is not “killing”?

[FlameHeart]

If you don’t want a lawsuit, don’t break the law.

Civil disobedience is, admittedly, a bit different issue.

For the same reason most Americans support a reasonable framework for when abortion can be performed.

Convenience?

What does science say?

@WuWei

Convenience?

Do you believe taking the morning after pill is murder?

[FlameHeart]

No. I said they may not know of the consequences because while abortion is being promoted, the whole story is. Pro-choice should also be, pro-informed choice.

I never said they were stupid. That is a blanket statement.

I believe it’s none of my business unless I am the father.

Ah ok. So you’re for allowing for convenience there.

[Hexenbiest]

There is a fine line that separates the far far right and those that support abortions. If one goes and looks at what they discuss it’s not hard to find, they are all 100% on board with full abortions up until the day the child comes out for one reason only it keeps the minority population down as 37% of all abortions are done by black ladies who make up roughly 6% of the population.\

Might have different goals, same procedure to get them.

[FlameHeart]

Also, I think clinics would do well in assisting women in other ways than just abortion.

@FlameHeart

. I said they may not know of the consequences

What consequences?

@WuWei

Who actually kills the child?

If you hire someone to kill your child, you’re not culpable?

Also, keep in mind this law also allows private citizens to sue people they suspect of helping the woman getting an abortion, such as giving them a ride. That person isn’t performing the abortion, either.

[FlameHeart]

Laceration to the uterus, increased risk of breast cancer, effects on future pregnancies, risk of infection, risk of depression and suicide. And maternal death.

Plus, no comfortably middle class or affluent people need to be troubled: they’ll always be able to get their own—and their family’s—abortions taken care of.
