Why would women over 50 and any man care about abortion?

Indiana.

I just don't get how people care about things that don't affect them. I live in a blue state (one of the bluest in the country) and I saw a ton of female high school classmates of mine going to protests over Roe. I've also seen the biggest pro-abortion advocates be people that'll never need an abortion anyway - obese women and gays.

Indiana law outlines three narrow exceptions: rape or incest, lethal fetal anomalies, and saving a mother’s life or preventing serious health risks. Doctors must write a report about the patient’s case and include supporting facts or reasoning in their medical record.
Abortions can now only be legally performed in the state’s hospitals or surgical centers owned by hospitals — and the vast majority are happening in Marion County, according to state data.

Explaining what’s legal and illegal under Indiana’s abortion law

Michaela Springer

Since it went into effect nearly a year ago, Indiana’s near-total ban on abortion has shuttered clinics and thrown the issue to the courts.

Liar

"Indiana's law will bar abortions except in cases of lethal fetal anomaly, rape or incest, or when the woman's life or health are seriously jeopardized"

That is absolutely NOT true.

Currently there are 13 states with a total ban on abortion (with some exceptions...all of them allow if there's a threat to the patient's life, some for rape or incest):

Idaho

Indiana

West Virginia

South Dakota

Missouri

Kentucky

Tennessee

Arkansas

Oklahoma

Texas

Alabama

Mississippi

Louisiana

Then, there are 5 other states with 6 weeks bans.

Having access to an abortion should not be dependent on what state you live in. This needs to be back to a national policy.

Why do you care so much about what people making more than $400,000 a year get taxed? You don't make that much. Why do you care so much about lowering their tax bill for them?

I was talking about a unilateral Federal ban on abortion, which is different and obviously farther reaching than what you mentioned. Yes, some people have to cross state lines to get one, but that's not because of a Federal nationwide ban.

If you don't have abortion, why do you care that other people do?

It's not like anyone is forcing you, or anyone you know, to have abortion.

Does it personally affect you? So why do you let it affect your vote?

A lot of Trumpers seem to be motivated by retribution for perceived wrongs which makes less sense than acting in an entirely self-interested manner.

Their lives will still be disappointing, but people they don't like will be miserable too, so it's okay.

When you criminalize abortion, you are criminalizing sex. That's why people protest. That's why red states like NB vote for abortion rights.

The article in the NYT states that abortions are happening at the same rate as before the overturning of Roe, so the abortion panic seems to be severely over blown.

BTW I am VERY prochoice, it just seems like a case challenging restrictions based on equal protection vs privacy should be what decides it. Also most states have restrictions that are pretty much on par with most of Europe.

In what way? Explain.

I have daughters.

And if I had sons, I’d still like options available.

<sarc>Exactly right. And if you don't like slavery, don't own a slave. Slavery won't affect you.*</sarc>

Yes. There should be a human life amendment that protects all innocent human beings from deliberate slaughter, including from direct abortion.

^ Cool with killing the grandkids.

Child sacrifice is a core tenet of the demons in society and always has been. The Democrat Party worships themselves and not God, one of the greatest ways to show loyalty to their party is to kill unborn babies. If they don't kill them before they are born, so many look to destroy children by many other devious means later in their lives.

Interesting. In the US, about 85-86% of direct abortions are procured by single women. Of the remaining 14-15%, some are procured by women impregnated by someone other than the husband. Direct abortion in the US is overwhelmingly a consequence of sex between people unmarried to each other. The playas are the slayas.

The icon of playboys, Hugh Hefner, was a big advocate for direct abortion. It was one of the few times when he and so-called feminists (girls are disproportionately selected for direct abortion) got into the same political bed.

Poor black women get more abortions than any group and the last thing they need is another kid.
