I know you think you're cute, but.... the carpool lane should be specifically for two adults. Your five-year-old shouldn't count either.[/quote]
unfortunately for you, that "cute" 5 yr old does count in the carpool lane, and now so should an embryo.  Government shouldn't interfere with medical decisions, either, but here we are.[/quote]

The question is whether terminating an unwanted pregnancy is a medical procedure, or infanticide. This is something that cannot be made definitive, as it is a matter of opinion. Hence why states rights is the solution here. One set of rules for Texas, one set of rules for CA, everyone is happy. [/quote]
*everyone* is not happy.  There are many in TX and OH who are not happy that a 10 yr old girl who was raped would've been forced to carry and give birth to her rapist's baby. There are many pregnant women, and their partners, who are not happy that if she should miscarry, that she would be forced to wait till there is no heartbeat, possibly putting the mother's life at risk, to get the medical treatment she needs.

I know you like to think that we live in lalaland where all pregnancies are only a result of consensual sex or that mother's never miscarry such that their lives are put at risk, but this is not lalaland.

As someone who used to be very prolife (grew up religious), as I got older, and wiser, I realized that life is not black and white. Life can be ugly and have shades of gray. Even my pastor acknowledged that he would choose to abort if the mother's life was in danger.

I also realized that the "Prolifers" weren't about saving the life of a baby at all, but rather about punishing women for having sex.

Also, I keep hearing that incels who are violent towards women do so because women won't have sex with them.  But, here are probirthers stating that women shouldn't have sex.

Oh, and did you know that many women who seek abortions are actually married, and that they seek  abortion because they cannot afford another mouth to feed?  Yep.. my parents went through that. They had four kids, lower income; she was 48, dad was 55.  OH, I know.. they should use birth control. Did you know that birth control is not 100% effective.  Oh, that's right, they shouldn't have sex, then, right?

IMO, the perfect solution to all of this is to force men to have vasectomies.  If the government can force women to carry babies, why can't they force men to have vasectomies?

Also, a fetus may have a heartbeat, but that life cannot exist outside the womb.  You seem more concerned with a clump of cells than you do actual live children.[/quote]
