Embryos and fetuses aren't people you weirdo.
Yes they are. Alabama is protecting them. Sorry.

I feel strongly pro choice, but I think we could pursue a general compromise and have it be at least better than it is today.
Make abortion and birth control and sex education widely accessible and affordable until 16 weeks and then ban abortions after that time except if fetal anomalies are identified or risk to the mother's health is identified. No listing out of what qualifies or not, after 16 weeks it is between a woman and the doctor.

A fetus who cannot live outside the mother is not a life. We can debate when life begins. But those are religious arguments. And we don’t live in a society of theocracy rule by a repressive minority.
Or, we didn’t use to.

"convenience"? No changing your mind with a perspective like that.
look at the chart earlier. Rarely is it ever for medical reasons - mostly it's for convenience.
You dismiss women as not being fully human.
ad hominem attacks are usually the lowest form of debate tactics.
The chart clearly shows that medical reasons for abortion are rare.

It is not taking away birth control and contraception options, it is getting people to use them. Abortions could the bevrare.
The Alabama law makes IUDs illegal. They are one of the most effective, cheapest, easiest options. (Although LD nurse, I had one fail and the pregnancy was ectopic. Exceptions happen). They are taking away contraception.

Anti-abortion folks, you call yourself pro-life so are you with me? I would assume you will agree with both these proposals
Red Herring and nothing to do with the Abortion debate. One is talking about saving innocent babies from being killed for convenience, the other is your futile attempt to be an authoritarian.
^^^Would let an innocent child die rather than take a body part from a corpse that didn’t sign a donation form. Shame on you for not caring about babies. Friends of mine lost their baby while waiting too long on a transplant list. She could have been saved by such a law.
Adults die waiting for transplants too. This has nothing to do with abortion and your attempts at comparison is intellectually dishonest at best.
And I call BS. There is no way a young child would be able to have an adult organ transplanted into them. It's just not going to be possible.

So not only are you an idiot - you're a liar as well.

It’s not “the death of another body.” Sorry, but most of us don’t agree with your weird ass interpretation of thousand year-old scripture. It’s not a legitimate basis for rational government and policy making, especially in a country where separation of church and state is supposed to be paramount.

So is the death of someone who could be saved by your bone marrow.

Too bad the body control only occurs after the pregnancy.
Abortion is the only way women can seemingly control their bodies.
I like how you let men off the hook so easily.
Unfortunately, I didn’t create humankind. I made no personal decision to build a woman’s body to carry unborn babies, and gift a man with a penis.
I also don’t force women to have sex with men who will not support them in case pregnancy occurs. Women choose who they have sex with. If they have sex with a man who won’t help support a possible pregnancy I can’t prevent that.
However, a man can be forced to take a paternity test and the government will even take money out of his check for child support should he prove to be the father and refuse financial responsibility.
What if the man who impregnated the woman does not work. Suppose, for the next several years the man decides to continue his studies (say complete high school, undergrad, and grad studies). How will the govt. force him to pay child support when he doesn't have any earnings?
Men who are ordered to pay child support are jailed if they do not comply.
Men aren’t going to be able to get their education from jail. Pay up dad.
My bff got pregnant and college and the dad was an exceptional athlete who went on to play in the NFL.
They hammered out an agreement where she supported their child until he finished college and got an NFL contract- which he did. He then repaid her and paid generous child support.
I don’t know why men should get a free pass to continue their education if pregnancy occurs.
