Say you have an individual who holds the following view.
During the first trimester, abortion should be legal for any reason. However, after the first trimester it will be illegal save for instances where the woman's physical health is severely in danger OR in the case of rape and incest where an investigation provides reason to believe they were prevented from seeking the abortion earlier by the perpetrator (which essentially would require the occurence to be reported to the police or child services, and thus verifiable).
Would you refer to this person "Pro-Life" or "Pro-Choice?
That's pretty much where I stand on abortion. Legal in all cases in the first trimester. Exceptions after that include threat to mother's health, fetal abnormality, rape and/or incest. I call myself pro-choice.
