    "Self governance" is allowing the states to decide these issues.

    Self governance? Do you mean like states rights?

    You lefties are no fan of that.

    I didn't say it was irrelevant. I said you need to find another excuse as rape is less than 1/2%.

    I didn't dodge anything. I didn't see there was anything to discuss. Pretty much like your comparison of an at fault wreck and injuring yourself to abortion. No relevance in the real world.

    You do what most on the left do. Take some extreme example that is less than 0.015% and want to make a law governing the world over it.

    Abortion is a responsible action for a person that knows they are unable or unwilling to care for a child.

    demanding someone carry an unwanted child to term and then offering zero aid to this mother or her child, or advocating that it be placed in a system that has completely failed and his rifle with abuse and neglect is immoral.

    Do you ever bother to look up definitions before you assert your opinion on them? You should try it

    But offering free baby killings for anyone who decides they want to have unprotected sex is moral? Having 9 or 15 abortions is just fine?
    When the amount of abortions in the black community alone are higher than actual births, abortion has become a tool of promiscuity.

    Abortion is not a right or a responsible action. Its a last ditch excuse for not being responsible.

    How often do condoms fail?
    Can all women take birth control?

    It doesn’t matter if it is once or 3000 times, a person should have the right of self governance.

    I like how some on the right whine about black people having too many babies, and in others whine about black people having too many abortions

    abortion are had by people that do not want to have a baby, right, left, Atheist, Theist, black, white, rich, poor

    in fact, in the USA, the majority of Abortions are had by Christians

    No, I mean like self governance. (Look up the word if you need to)

    If I meant states rights I would have said states rights.

    How about individual rights? You "states rights" righties are no fan of that. Self governance is better accomplished by INDIVIDUAL rights, not by states eliminating individual rights. You dig?

    many on the right do not support individual rights, they want their State government to control them

    Bingo. The "states rights" righties love to talk about the 10th Amendment . . . but they can never read the last four words of it.

    so are you saying Trump "needed" the Orange makeup?

    why, to cover up some embarrassing old age spots or something?

    I appreciate your taking the time to share that. And I can't say that I wasn't moved. But as a woman, I'm afraid I cannot get over the notion of a clump of cells trumping my rights to do as I wish with my body. Perhaps if there was a male equivalent, more pro life men could - at least - appreciate the pro choice view. We see a lot of arguments by people who don't want their rights to firearms being trampled. How would it feel if it was something so much more personal being trampled?

    While there’s certainly no direct male equivalent to women being forced incubators to the state, we can and do have some idea of how these men would react just looking at recent events. Look how they behaved when they were told they needed to use a mask for 10 minutes when they were in a store

    now extrapolate that out over almost a year

    It's easy to get over the notion: It's not scientifically coherent. No matter how much of an inconvenience pregnancy undoubtedly is, it is not a matter of 'your body' since a separate life form has taken root inside of the womb. Liberals need to drop this argument with Roe and Casey gone, it clearly isn't an accepted argument(nor should it be, its riddled with errors). So, what argument could and should Liberals make to maintain the status quo?

    Simple: Financial. Liberals can drop the pretenses and admit that abortion is a form of birth control, this is fine if Liberals make the argument for it and that argument is thusly:

    https://iwpr.org/iwpr-issues/reprod...-of-abortion-access-a-review-of-the-evidence/

    ": Abortion access reduced unintended births. Cohorts of children were more likely to be planned, and, as a result, had improved educational and economic outcomes, both during childhood and later in life."

    Conservatives always argue they're pro-family and yet nothing is more pro-family then family planning and financial viability, which in turn will lessen the burden on social programs. But this argument had never been advanced, despite being the wholly superior argument logically and otherwise.
