Things that made you Facepalm today (Political Version)

[Tgo01]

PS - I actually agree that there should be circumstances for abortion... anytime before the 1st trimester, rape, incest and that .0003% chance the mother could die.

This used to be my stance but Democrats have gone from "it's a rare medical procedure that is a discussion between a woman and her doctor" to "LOL! Abortions for all! Baby about to be born? Not too late for an abortion!"

They have made a complete mockery of this.

The Democrats have pushed me so far in the other direction with their ghoulishness. Now I just believe abortions if the mother's life is in danger, I'm still on the fence about rape and incest but it's not as clear cut for me as it was. And Democrats love the danger one because they think it's a good excuse for abortions after the second trimester, but I have yet to hear a single Democrat explain to me how the mother's life can be in danger after the second trimester where abortion is the only answer as opposed to a C-section or inducing labor.

Romania’s prohibition of the procedure was disproportionately felt by low-income women and disadvantaged groups, which abortion-rights advocates in the United States fear would happen if the Alabama law came into force. As a last resort, many Romanian women turned to home and back-alley abortions, and by 1989, an estimated 10,000 women had died as a result of unsafe procedures. The real number of deaths might have been much higher, as women who sought abortions and those who helped them faced years of imprisonment if caught. Maternal mortality skyrocketed, doubling between 1965 and 1989

1965 Romania is no comparison to 2019 US. Birth control is more readily available, as are condoms, not to mention social safety nets and families willing to adopt. There are some bad mothers out there popping out 8 and 9 kids and they get by via government assistance.

Americans will do what they always do, if you make it illegal, they will find it in a back alley...

No. I'm literally using your retarded "logic" and illustrating why you are a raging hypocrite.
