[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can the government force me to give a blood transfusion to save someone else? Nope. And that's a real live born person. Then the government cannot force me to incubate a pregnancy. "But the fetus is there because of your irresponsible choices!" Doesn't matter. If the government can't force me to give up my bodily autonomy to save another, then that's sacrosanct. When you bring in "but your choices!" at that point you are legislating pregnancy and childbirth as punishment for having sex that you don't want me to have. It has zero to do with saving a life, or you'd be pushing for laws to require people to donate organs or blood.[/quote] An analogy even more fitting since it adds in a culpability element, if you drive drunk and smash into a person and they require multiple blood transfusions and you are a match would you like the government to forcibly take your blood? Even if doing so risks your own life because you suffered injuries as well? How about if you're not drunk you just got distracted and its the same scenario? Of course the answer is no, because we don't ask one human to risk their life unwillingly to save another human. It just isn't how the world works. [/quote]
