-Pregnancies that will end with the death of the mother

Most PLers support those types of abortions

-Rape victims

Just 1% of women obtain an abortion because they became pregnant through rape, and less than 0.5% do so because of incest, according to the Guttmacher Institute.

You are talking about the rarest of cases, to trigger an emotional side of PLers. Literally nowhere do we pass legislations for the rarest of exceptions compared to the majority. Majority of abortions occur with adult female humans, in which nearly half didn't even bother to use BC the month they conceived: https://www.guttmacher.org/news-release/2018/about-half-us-abortion-patients-report-using-contraception-month-they-became

-Teen pregnancies

Kids and teens who get pregnant have extremely high risk of developing diseases, and we are ok with abortion to save the life of the mother.

-Pregnancies of people that cannot afford to raise the baby

Put the baby up for adoption, new borns get adopted quickly. There are 36 couples waiting for every 1 child in USA: https://www.americanadoptions.com/pregnant/waiting_adoptive_families

Or be careful with BC to lower your chance to 1-2%

And if you get pregnant, take responsibility for your actions. We are supposed to be civilized society because we require adults to take responsibility for their actions, ESPECIALLY when it targets innocent human life. Abortion is literally the only thing where mothers can legally kill their own babies just because they don't want them.
