how is that story on-topic in any way
- abortion is not infanticide
- abortion is not murder
- abortion is not some scary thing that should be the topic of creepypastas
- only 0.08% of abortions are late-term abortions like the one's shown in buze's video
- producing offspring is a function of a woman's body and as long as we all live in non-totalitarian nations, the government will never and should never have control over the functions of your body.
also, the fact that you bring the will of god into this astounds me.
if you went into the military and lost your legs after stepping on an IED, why should we give you a wheelchair? it must be the will of god that you should crawl on your hands for the rest of your life. hell, wheelchairs should be illegal. prosthetics too. they defy the will of our lord and savior.
and that's exactly the way abortion is. for some people, pregnancy is a handicap and abortion is their wheelchair. it allows them to continue leading the life they want to lead, and, surely, they have a right to that.
on top of that, it seems like most of you associate abortion with "drunk 16 year old" girls. however, more than half of abortions are performed on married women and nearly 60% have already had at least one live birth.
abortion is not running away from responsibility. it's choosing responsibility over motherhood.

now let's take a look at this quote and turn it around. let's use madame curie as an example.
madame curie is 20 and her abusive boyfriend has just gotten her pregnant. she's in college, studying chemistry and physics. her boyfriend finds out she's pregnant, and, fearing fatherhood, leaves her. madame curie is now alone with a choice between motherhood and a career.
madame curie was undoubtedly one of the finest scientific minds of the 19th and 20th centuries, and if it would have been illegal for her to have an abortion, we would have been well into the 21st century before we understood anything about radioactivity.
assuming that her and her unborn child have equal potential in life (a stretch, to say the least), why the hell would you choose the rights of an unborn, insentient fetus over the rights of a living human being with a will of her own? riddle me this, batman.
