Why is abortion for life developed through a rape not murder while life developed by a 14 year old child murder worthy of a prison sentence?
People like me? When did I say a kid should be punished by law for sexual activity? I said if they have a kid they should deal with it. Choices have consequences no matter what age you are.
The boys did - often almost “blackmailing” girls into it. So, how many of those boys were taken to the principles office?
Children are not typically punished the same as adults because they lack the facilities and awareness to make those decisions. I am just glad you are acknowledging this life you care for so deeply is actually just a punishment in your eyes. Which is even more disturbing
The “heartbeat state” is an arbitrary date being set my you. You really cannot answer such a simple question yet you feel you are informed enough to force others to lose control of their body? Fascinating And again, not all rapes are reported quickly — or at all.
I never called it a punishment if you start putting words in my mouth like the previous magic reader I won’t discuss this with you either. they have options like adoption if they don’t want to raise the baby. It’s better than murder
Consequence and punishment are synonymous with one another. What did you mean by “Choices have consequences” in the discussion about statutory rape in minors?

You mean “young” that look like this? Because this is when the vast majority of abortions occur - at week eight yes it has a “heart” but it is not inside the chest neither have all four chambers formed https://embryology.med.unsw.edu.au/embryology/index.php/Carnegie_stage_16 Does this look like a “baby”?
You are the one "crying a river" - over the "baby zygote" - or the pulsating lump of cells that comes after - fallaciously infering that a child exists - when you have no ability to support that claim - yet on this basis wanting to force your personal beliefs (likely religious) on others through physical violence.
And if a high school student gets pregnant you think she should be forced to give birth? You really think she is mature enough for motherhood? Why should she sacrifice her entire youth and future for something she does not want?
Do you really think that saying the trite and bloody obvious, "She and he shouldn’t have done the deed"" does anything? Solves anything? CHANGES anything? MEANS anyting? The answer is NO. WHEN are you going to prove abortion is murder....repeating it mindlessly doesn't change a thing and why haven't you reported these "murders" to the cops???
If you truly believe that then you would also believe in ending all wars and all forms of capital punishment.
No, wars and capital punishment are justifiable. Defense from an aggressor is completely acceptable. And I won’t advocate for the end of capital punishment either. Those are reactions to an action. Abortion is murder to the child without it have ever doing anything wrong other than existing. It’s wrong plain and simple
Abortion is not murder. In fact, it is not even anything close to murder. Abortion simply terminates a pregnancy, it ends the life of a potential human being. Furthermore, the ZEF has actually done something wrong which is threatening the unwillingly pregnant woman's values -- She does not want to be a mother and having it live inside and of her interferes and conflicts with this value.
Joe - your claim that a zygote is a child is assumed premise fallacy. You projeting your fantasy about what might happen in the future into the present.
It seems, by and large, the same folks who want to outlaw abortion are the same folks that don't want companies to have to include birth control in their insurance plans or have comprehensive sex education at school. They're also the same people who call mothers on social assistance 'welfare queens'. And also the ones who want Planned Parenthood clinics to close - the very ones who provide free contraception to women who cannot afford it. Instead of focusing their considerable attention on the end result, why not support all those who want women to have access to all those things that can prevent abortion in the first place? And, how many of those folks who are screaming to prevent abortions have adopted or fostered all the hundreds of thousands of children needing homes across our country? I could support the pro lifers who are desperately against abortion if they would only be consistent with the care for the lives of the born.
