    I don’t care what spin you put on it pal. No one should be allowed to kill a human being on a whim.

    Now if there’s something medically wrong with the fetus or the pregnancy is too taxing to be safely brought to term, that’s different.

    But the fact that you’re being upvoted and I’m being downvoted shows that the wackos from Reddit have finally discovered Lemmy

      No, it shows that most people are reasonable and understand that a woman who decides for whatever reason that she isn’t ready for the commitment of parenthood, that is her business.

      Wacko spin, eh? Thank you for so clearly identifying yourself as a reproductive authoritarian for all the women on Lemmy. If you think many women get an abortion “on a whim,” then you have bought into the right-wing propaganda.

      BTW, saying that the decision to abort should be made between a woman and her doctor means that medical ethics becomes the guiding framework, as opposed to criminal law. The state has no business criminalizing reproductive health.

      Canada has the best abortion law, which is to say it has no law on abortion. And yet, Canadian doctors are somehow not killing babies at 36 weeks “on a whim.” Hmmm, what could possibly explain that?

      Gee-wiz, Cletus, maybe we don’t have to criminalize abortion in order to get “common sense” behavior.
