1) Elizabeth was released from the hospital. Off they go to another nearby state that allowed abortion. She was not in dire straits. She just wanted one.
2) Amanda could have driven with her husband the 8 hours to another state. They chose not to.
3) Marlena was giving the pill. She chose not to go that route.
4) Tara could have gone to another state. She tried Michigan. Go to CO or CA. She had time.
5) Don’t hand me planned parenthood stories and expect they won’t be biased.
Republicans: so you have to travel out of state for a procedure, and spend one or two nights, take off extra days of work, find someone to babysit overnight. No biggie.
Showing themselves to be the elitists that they are.
All were given in-state choices. They just didn’t like them
Watching you work so hard to try to be OK with abortion rights being taken away is fascinating. And sad.
It is what it is. Just own it. You voted for the forced birthers. You must be OK with that. Too late now.
I think we should think long and hard at the ease in which we terminate a life. Notice how none of these stories start with “Sarah is 22, has multiple partners by choice, and sometimes skips her birth control. She’s found out she’s pregnant and is not ready to have a child….” Reason? Because that would bring up very uncomfortable questions. And that is the majority reason why someone seeks out abortion.
Ok. Let’s look “long and hard” at 22 year old Sara with multiple partners and an inconsistent use of birth control. Is it in the best interests of Sara to have a child? If she’s not great at taking birth control why do you think she’s going to be great at taking prenatals?
Basically does your argument boil down to Sara should be legally required to give birth…because she didn’t take a pill every day? Does that make any kind of sense to you? That a child should be raised by a 22 year old (guessing single mother because of your multiple partners comment) in adverse economic conditions because that will show her?
Whose interests do you serve here? It’s not Sara’s. It’s not the child’s. It’s not the states because they’ll be paying for the healthcare and the education and the early intervention. It’s just the interest of…controlling women?
Sara created another life. There are responsibilities that go with behavior. I knew at least a few Saras when I was in college who had multiple abortions. I’d like to see the Saras of this world not be considered victims.
DP. There’s nothing objectionable about Sara having an abortion if she doesn’t want to be a mother, whether she “created a life” or not. It’s her body that will have to incubate it, and it’s her choice to do it or not to do it. At the time she’d have the abortion, it’s a fetus, not a person.
That’s your opinion. Sara is not a victim.
Sara needs to have the right to an abortion even if she decides to carry the pregnancy and wants to give birth, there are many things that can go wrong with a pregnancy. This nonsense that a women gets a positive pregnancy test and then that's that a perfectly developed baby just pops out 9 months later needs to stop.
Stop making Sara a victim and people will be more open to legal and rare.

When will the pro-life team come up with their plan for ending workplace discrimination against pregnant women, ensuring access to high quality childcare so women can continue to work, improving our healthcare system so women aren’t literally risking their lives to have babies, providing health care for all so that women whose children have birth defects aren’t faced with bankruptcy if they choose to deliver, etc?
There is not much you can do at the workplace if women are going to end up having a lot of kids and not being able to control family size.

Watching you work so hard to try to be OK with abortion rights being taken away is fascinating. And sad.
It is what it is. Just own it. You voted for the forced birthers. You must be OK with that. Too late now.
I think we should think long and hard at the ease in which we terminate a life. Notice how none of these stories start with “Sarah is 22, has multiple partners by choice, and sometimes skips her birth control. She’s found out she’s pregnant and is not ready to have a child….” Reason? Because that would bring up very uncomfortable questions. And that is the majority reason why someone seeks out abortion.
Ok. Let’s look “long and hard” at 22 year old Sara with multiple partners and an inconsistent use of birth control. Is it in the best interests of Sara to have a child? If she’s not great at taking birth control why do you think she’s going to be great at taking prenatals?
Basically does your argument boil down to Sara should be legally required to give birth…because she didn’t take a pill every day? Does that make any kind of sense to you? That a child should be raised by a 22 year old (guessing single mother because of your multiple partners comment) in adverse economic conditions because that will show her?
Whose interests do you serve here? It’s not Sara’s. It’s not the child’s. It’s not the states because they’ll be paying for the healthcare and the education and the early intervention. It’s just the interest of…controlling women?
Sara created another life. There are responsibilities that go with behavior. I knew at least a few Saras when I was in college who had multiple abortions. I’d like to see the Saras of this world not be considered victims.
DP. There’s nothing objectionable about Sara having an abortion if she doesn’t want to be a mother, whether she “created a life” or not. It’s her body that will have to incubate it, and it’s her choice to do it or not to do it. At the time she’d have the abortion, it’s a fetus, not a person.
