    Refusing medical treatment for a woman with a life-threatening pregnancy emergency is legal.

    Abortion is criminalized.

    (In select backwards states).

      Abortion is legal and killing babies is celebrated.

      Being in favor of infants right to life and women’s choice to make decisions about their body until they make the choose to share their body with another human is criminalized.*

      Ftfy. Imagine being in favor of killing babies and thinking the side that wanted to kill infants because “women’s rights to kill babies even after birth in California” somehow trumps babies right to life isn’t an atrocity comparable to slavery.

        Ok, I’ll bite. How many months after conception should abortion be legal?

          That’s a very difficult question tbh my initial thoughts are less than 1 month. Abortion should not be used as birth control and obviously abortions that are necessary for either mothers safety or under dire circumstances like rape/underage etc… or severe instances of fetal health should all be legal much later as anatomy scans for babies health are needed to identify many serious deformities.

            I’m glad I asked. You have a more nuanced answer than I expected.

            Your reply made me curious. You’re supposed to abortions for birth control. But you say less than one month. Why not at conception and keep your exemptions for rape or medical emergencies?
