First, you have no way of proving whether their actions were deliberate. Any attempt to do so would require a massive massive privacy violation of every single woman in the country, not just the ones who want to abort.
ABORTION OPPONENTS MAKE. While there are indeed some terrible arguments made by pro-choicers, the one you focused on, that I'm referencing by quoting you, is not one of them.
"YOU" DO NO SUCH THING. You are not your body! You are a mind, and you body is quite capable of doing various things that you don't control.
ONE OF YOUR STANDARD STUPID **LIES**. An unborn human is not helpless. Every ectopic pregnancy just adds to the proof it doesn't need a womb to start developing. Plus, it infuses oxytocin into its host's body to make its host its defender. If it was truly helpless, in accordance with your Stupid **Lie**, it would not be able to do either of those things!
ONE OF THE VERY FEW THINGS YOU GET RIGHT. Good show!
ANOTHER STUPID **LIE** FROM YOU. The more you fail to offer even the slightest bit of Objective Evidence that an unborn human qualifies as a "being", in the same way that an intelligent extraterrestrial could qualify as a "being", the more it is obvious that you are spouting a Stupid **Lie**.
ANOTHER STUPID **LIE**. Sex does not force sperm and egg to merge. They are independently-acting entities. Therefore some folks are quite capable of deliberately having lots of sex while constantly failing to have any offspring. You are not your body! You can control various gross actions of your body, but that doesn't mean you can control whether or not a pregnancy happens --entirely because other independently-acting entities are involved, besides just you.
ANOTHER STUPID **LIE**. You are not your body! You do not create offspring, nor do you put them anywhere. Often enough they completely exit the womb all by themselves, without bothering to implant.
ANOTHER STUPID **LIE**. There is no "will", when about 50% of zygotes Naturally fail to yield confirmed pregnancies, and about another 1/6 of confirmed pregnancies Naturally fail to yield live births.
IT IS A VALID DESCRIPTION OF WHAT AN INDEPENDENTLY-ACTING ENTITY CAN DO. Sex does not force a blastocyst to implant into a womb, after all!
IS NOT WHAT ABORTION IS INTENDED TO DO. Repeating your Stupid **LIE** about unborn humans will never make them qualify as "beings".
ANOTHER STUPID **LIE**. You haven't offered the slightest bit of evidence that an unwanted unborn human is associated with "parental responsibility". DO remember that in Nature, when the environment is not suitable for raising offspring, a pregnant female can do "fetal resorption", her womb directly sucking the life and body-mass of an unborn mammal out of existence. Humans can sometimes do that, too, but more often, when the environment is not suitable for raising offspring , a pregnant woman can seek abortion. It is a different way to kill the offspring, the the net effect is the same --there is no "must" that a pregnancy be carried to term, when the environment is unsuitable!
ABORTION IS FAR MORE RESPONSIBLE THAN LETTING THE BORN STARVE TO DEATH.
Except it just begs the question. You're assuming prior to the argument that abortion is not criminally wrong and then using that assumption to argue against people who believ
Why is this a bad argument? You can support someone's right to make a choice and still think that choice is wrong. Anyone who's spent...any time interacting with other people knows that there are incredibly ****ty and terrible things that people can do that are or should be legal. As far as bad arguments go, I find the "I aborted and I'm proud" sort of attitude to be not only distasteful but also ill-advised, since people who aren't already in agreement with pro-choice and/or feminist discourse are likely to be turned off by it.
This is a good point. The corollary is that anti-abortion people should not slut-shame. I don't want my dislike of abortion to be polluted by right-wing hand-wringing about irrelevant sexual morality.
DOES THAT MEAN YOU FAVOR ARRANGED MARRIAGES? Instead of letting folks choose their own mates? OR, are you in favor of Authoritarianism instead of Democracy? OR, are you in favor of banning every Religion except your own, so that no one has any reason to switch? As usual, the abortion opponent blathers idiocy instead of sense --there are lots of choices in the world that are not directly related to economics. Sex is good exercise; so is jogging; so are doing cartwheels and jumping jacks. Yet according to your idiotic blathering, no one needs choice in that matter....
THAT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH YOUR SIDE'S LIES, claiming personhood exists where it Objectively, Verifiably, doesn't. Like a cuticle cell, or a hydatidiform mole, or a brain-dead adult on life-support, or an unborn human. Denying personhood can only be done after it is proved some entity possesses personhood. Just like Denying Fact can only be done after getting exposed to a Fact (like, say, the Fact that unborn humans commit assault, worse than any ordinary parasite). Yet neither you nor any other abortion opponent has ever offered the slightest bit of Objectively Verfiable data supporting the claim that an unborn human qualifies as a person, similar to how, say, a dolphin might qualify as a person. You apparently can't even explain why, when Objective tests exists to detect personhood in some entity, non-humans should be tested but human entities (like hydatidiform moles, brain-dead adults on life-support, and the unborn) need not be tested. Tsk, tsk!
SEE ABOVE. And this. The Law assigns personhood to a limited set of entities; it does not explicitly deny personhood from any entity. AGAIN, denying personhood to unborn humans can only be done after they have been assigned personhood! Which has never happened in accordance with the US Constitution, despite your Stupid **LIES**.
MORE WORTHLESS BLATHER, HAVING ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH ABORTION. Tsk, tsk!
THEY DIDN'T. Abortion was widely legal before the 1800s, and even when anti-abortion laws began getting written, exceptions were always included.
WORTHLESS BLATHER, UNSUPPORTED BY ANY OBJECTIVE EVIDENCE WHATSOEVER. Why should a mere unsupported claim be believed, just because you (and others) blather it like idiots?
TRUE. That doesn't mean there is a problem with abortion, though!
THEN YOU COULD BE SUFFERING FROM STUPID PREJUDICE. Besides simply blathering nonsense. See Msg #271 and #107 of this Thread.
