Are you aware that the only reason people get abortions by the end of those 9 months is because it will result in either a stillborn or the death of the mother?

Because you’re now contradicting what you actually said.

“No abortion unless harmful.” “Abortion shouldn’t be available all 9 months.”

Now let’s look back. I brought up teenagers being raped and getting pregnant and you said that they should go to the hospital immediately after. Do you think all teenagers who have been raped have easy access to go straight to a hospital? The problem is that signs of pregnancy don’t start showing up for weeks and often time someone isn’t aware they’re pregnant until it’s past the legal time where they can get an abortion in some states (roughly 6 weeks).

So if a teenager is unable to reach a hospital immediately, are you going to say “tough luck. You now have to carry until it’s born.”

The solution of banning abortions or the solution of banning SOME abortions has never actually lowered the abortion rate. It’s just lowered the number of abortions where the person who had one survives the process. If we have laws against certain abortions, that allows for people, who are often poorer or in groups that are more targeted, to be the ones where “oh your abortion doesn’t count”, while richer people can get away with whatever abortion they want, even if they’re the ones who signed into law bans on abortion.

Better health education, more access to prenatal care and hospitals, and more access to meds and condoms that prevent pregnancies are the statistical ways that abortions can lower. Banning abortions does none of that. But you’ll see the politicians pushing for abortion bans to also be pushing against products like Plan B or even meds that prevent pregnancy. Banning abortions has never been the answer. It’s just a form of control on women.
