Discussing abortion in a political forum without knowing what Guttmacher is is ignorant. You do know what ignorant means, right?

I think having sex when you can’t 100% take responsibility for a baby on your own is irresponsible. You know what irresponsible means, right? And then justifying getting rid of said baby because it was an inconvenience, well — we know what kind of person you are.

We know what kind of person you are, too.

I’m not the one who got rid of a baby.

And yet you think that makes you a good person.

These new laws all ignore contemporary society and what has changed since the 60s and Roe v Wade became law. Its laughable really. Don't have sex until you can support a child? LOL. I guess 80% of men better give up all hope of ever having sex they don't have to pay for then....

Come on, now. We all know you are referring to women. You think that WOMEN shouldn’t be having sex unless they are 100% ready to have a child. Because this reasoning will never deter men from having sex. Ever.

Well yeah the woman has the baby inside her and can only change that with medical intervention. A man - while he shouldn’t - can walk away and no one is the wiser. Might be unfair but it’s pragmstic that the person carrying the baby needs to carry greater responsibility bc there’s always a chance she’ll end up the solo parent. Is your problem that it’s unfair that the woman must carry the child? Bc I think God has something to do with that.

What does God have to do with US law? Confused here. Certainly you are against Sharia law because it brings religion in.

Masturbation is the answer! Moms- but your daughters vibrators. They’ll never want to be near a man again.

What makes you think abortions are the product of sex with strangers? 45% of the women having abortions are married or living with a partner.

They’re fine marrying him or living with him and sleeping with him until there’s a baby and then it’s — oh I don’t want a kid with him. Read the hashtag — it really isn’t about medical problems or rape for the majority talking about it. Is it no longer taught that you can pregnant EVERY time you have sex no matter how many BC methods you’re using, so if you don’t want a baby or child support, don’t do it?!

I’m sorry, are you trying to imply that the HASHTAG YOU’RE READING has better information about who the women are who get abortions and why they get them than The Guttmacher Institute?

Don’t know who Guttmacher is but it’s in line with what I’m reading. Sex is all well and good until it’s — ew I don’t want a baby with HIM?!

Shut your ignorant mouth.

The Guttmacher Institute is the foremost authority on research into the topics of women’s health and reproductive rights.

25 years ago I had an accidental pregnancy, while on the pill, with someone I had been dating for more than a year. When I told him I was pregnant was the first time he punched me in the face - because I was ruining his future.

So no, I didn’t want to have a baby with him.

Notice how PP never came back to respond to this. Because she has nothing she can say in response to a real life situation.

No, you are much much worse. You are trying to take away bodily autonomy from millions of women. And force women to back alley abortions. And force unwanted and sick children into the world.

YOU ARE A MONSTER.

Alabama ranks 50th (DEAD LAST) in education. And we're supposed to believe this bill is really about the children, and not their hatred of women?

[Anonymous]

$50 will get you to another state, a hotel room AND an expensive medical procedure?

I don’t think so.

20 years ago in DC, an abortion cost $250.

+1. From a political standpoint, I am not sure how this is a 'winning" issue. Over 65% of American favor the pro-choice side and even if you are pro-life, there is almost unanimity aroun rape and incest. Even folks who might be on the fence can see what kind of power grab this is from the right. Add to it the tariffs and foreign policy fiascos and it just become untenable to see how Trump can win/keep the Senate without Russian intervention.

I suppose that is what they are counting on, which is why we need to get away from electronic voting immediately.

And so what? If you don't want a baby with him and don't want to have sex with him, then don't. But don't tell me who I can have sex with or how to manage my body.

For some people, $50 is prohibitive. Get it? Or maybe your life is so priviledged that you don't.

Then for you, don't have sex. But don't impose your standards on to someone else.

Even Pat Robertson thinks it’s too extreme.

“Longtime televangelist Pat Robertson decried Alabama’s new abortion ban as “extreme,” saying on his show on Wednesday that the state legislature has “gone too far.””
