I agree it should be on the ballot in EVERY state. Simple question should abortion be legal?
Yes -legal no restrictions
No - illegal no exceptions
As much as I'm pro abortion: no restrictions is bullshit too. Wouldn't allow aborting in the 9th month if not the life of the mother is at stake.
Why are people pretending doctors would sign off on 9 month abortions to anyone who wants one?
If you pay enough you find one and if it is not restricted in any way it is also legal. I'm not against abortions, but I think there need to be at least some regulations.
Sounds like a privatized healthcare problem. Most people getting abortions are not able to pay for expensive doctors anyway.
This was extremely rare during Roe and will continue to be extremely rare, that shit doesn't happen unless it's a risk of harm to the carrier. All that law would do is put women at risk.
Let the medical experts write the regulations, like they do for every other medical procedure.
So many holes in this argument.
Shit in the ninth month it's not an abortion unless the fetus itself is nonviable. Otherwise it's a C-Section birth. Nobody is killing the fetus unless it's absolutely necessary or before viability.
