[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]Let's assume, for a sec, that a fetus is a baby. Fine. In effect, these laws are forcing women to donate their bodies to keep their babies alive. Why, then, does that end at birth? Where are all the laws that will force biological parents to give their body parts to their kids if needed to keep them alive? Where is the law that forces dads to give up blood, pieces of their liver, their kidneys, their lungs, their bone marrow, if their kids need a transplant?[/quote]

I asked this back on page 33 and never got a response.  Pro-forced-birthers, would you support such laws?[/quote]

Ok, I don’t agree with the AL law, but regarding the above:  maybe. 
However, pro-abortion folks always argue that it’s ok to kill a fetus but not a born child because only one individual (the mother) can keep the fetus alive, whereas others could take care of a newborn. Likewise, more than one individual could conceivably donate an organ or blood to a child. Can’t have it both ways. [/quote]

Right - that's always been my issue with abortion: that it forces one person to donate their body to another.  And I'd argue that this kind of law is the opposite of having it both ways - it's consistent.

So you're ok with taking someone who doesn't want to donate their kidney to their child and using the power of the state to remove their kidney against their will?

Also: not pro-abortion.  I don't have an opinion on someone else's abortion (or, more accurately, my opinion on someone else's abortion is irrelevant).  I want them to have the choice.  Whether they have the abortion is up to them.[/quote]
