How would you respond to this wonderful little girl's concerns?


 
Does that 12 year old have parents that condoned her getting pregnant at 12? If so, I bet they were liberals.

Im pro choice but why is she asking this question? Is she planning to get pregnant real soon?
 
Who knew there were people who have a Handmaids tale mindset….

It was at a public hearing in West Virginia yesterday in which lawmakers heard from about 90 people, including activists, concerned citizens on both sides of the argument as well as several women who shared personal stories of sexual assault or their own abortions. The ban passed as expected however an amendment also passed that would include exceptions for rape and incest up until about 14 weeks of gestation and if a report was made to a "qualified law enforcement officer"
 
This is so stupid what if they didnt make a police report? so many times rape happens thats not reported.
 
Well...no...you arent supposed to carry and birth a child.. Because at 12 years old you arent supposed to be contemplating having sex of ANY type. Because...well...you are 12. And if someone does unspeakable things to you then you should have a right to kill the baby you are carrying...because you had your choice to conceive taken.

But lets stop pretending the vast majority of the 800,000 babies leftists support killing are the product of rapes and not the irresponsible choices of people who then seek to kill the babies in the name of convenience.

Im sure if you get raped it wasnt them purposly wanting to have sex.
 
They dont care if you get raped thats the whole point of people speaking about this.
do you care about the deaths of the millions of people that got covid? what about the school shootings?

Well...her initial question was in regard to the possibility that some man might do unspeakable things to her...implying rape...without consent.
The reality is...that is a minuscule part of the rape totals and leftists are using the emotional ploy to imply THAT is the problem...that there is all this raping going around and making women pregnant.

I dont downplay rape...there are some 240,000 reported rapes annually. It is under-reported, under-arrested, and under prosecuted. It is also under-sentenced.

But rape is not the primary source of abortions. Reports show that 1% of the 800,000 rapes that occur are a product of rape. leftists use rape to justify the killing of the remaining 99%.

what do you mean possibility rape does happen.

doesnt matter what you say is the main reasons people have abortions not allowing exceptions for rape and incest is horrible
so your not answering what people do in that situation pro life organizations are saying they want 10 year old pregnant girls to carry the baby to term.
 
 
Does that 12 year old have parents that condoned her getting pregnant at 12? If so, I bet they were liberals.

If you look at actual facts it's the Southern "bible" states that have alarmingly high teen pregnancy rates.


If those states were not condoning it, the rates wouldn't be so high.

Im sure any parent of a 12 year old would be upset that their daughter was raped.
 
No babies are killed.

Stick to facts.
 
I still haven't seen any of our anti-choice brethren explain how this is even supposed to work. Does there need to be an investigation? Does someone need to be charged? Does there need to be a trial? How long is this supposed to take?

If there's an abortion there needs to be punishment against someone, obviously. Whether against someone charged for all the reported rapes (surely with no demographics being particularly susceptible), or against the ladies for their crime of having been forced into the position of filing a false report. Abortion without punishment simply cannot be allowed.

Shouldn't take any longer than 15 weeks...
