The only question is whether or not a mother could choose to end the pregnancy due to her not wanting the baby. Any other discussion is a waste of time and serves only to create tangents.
    Im not using any failed argument. If a bill is proposed that doesn't put those situations at risk, then it doesn't. Thats fine. Whoop-de-doo. But I'm not opposed to letting a woman choose what she wants to do in any other situation either. And I wouldn't support anything that removes that choice from her in any situation.

    I am opposed to the "name" of the bill, as with a lot of bills, it uses politically and emotionally charged nomenclature (it probably wouldn't have been voted on if it were the "Intact Dilation and Extraction" act) to receive support.

    As far as from a personal moral standpoint, abortion in any situation would probably be the last option I would consider if I were a woman faced with that decision, dependent upon the circumstances, but I will NEVER be in that situation, so I can't necessarily be sure of what I would do. Judging abortion solely by its gruesomeness or obscenity falls short of judging it dispassionately, and I'll never judge something or base my opinion on something based on emotions alone.

    Ok, so you support women having the choice no matter what. Why do you not support the average American in having a choice as to whether they want to own an assault style weapon or not?

    I agree on this. Politics plays a role in these naming conventions.

    If the majority of women getting abortions had the same outlook as you on the above bolded part, this discussion would not even be in the public eye.
