Anti-choice propaganda about parenting

WCH said:
Being a parent is a selfless act.

Aborting your child is a selfish act.

Keep this in mind.

That's a ridiculous generalization. Lots of people are selfish by having more kids than they can properly raise. And many people who get abortions do so because they know they cannot properly raise another child or even their first, especially if they are 13.

The same could be said for the term 'pro abortion' used by anti choicers.

Yes it can. The abortion debate devolves pretty much immediately into its propaganda terms.

And that's the baby's fault, how?

No you objectively do not, since you support abortion.



:roll:

You're not even just pro-abortion, fam. You want an expanded death penalty, to include even property crimes, and for physicians to be allowed to kill their patients too.

It's not like fetus killing is encouraged. It's more or less simply tolerated. There's a lot of social stigma attached, which is why the number of abortions goes down year after year.

What does fault have to do with terminating a fetus?

We used to believe that terminating a human was only justified domestically, if that human had fault to answer for.

Well, the rules on killing first trimester fetuses do not apply.

Not really. Most often they are pregnant, because they took the chance.

So what? They can remedy the situation by hiring a doctor to kill the fetus. Problem solved.

By local law. That is normally the case, where masses of humans are killed. Most societies cannot deal with that truth. So, they declare it legal using this or that fishy justification.

That is part of the problem that our society is having.

I suppose we could remedy lots of situations by hiring someone to kill those we just want dead. Whether they did anything wrong, of course, is immaterial to the blatantly immoral.

Self defense killing is also allowed. Given the effects pregnancy has and can have on a woman's body, abortion can be considered self defense.

Nope. Only fetuses.
