I personally know two, my daughter and niece have balanced translocations. I do as well but too old to worry about that anymore. Trisomy 18, look it up.
So, unlike you, who clearly didn’t make good choices, my loved ones could be harassed by these bounty assholes for nothing more than their genes. Yay!

Sometimes contraception doesn’t work.

What about those carrying severely handicapped fetuses. They’ll have no choice now - how is that good?
Or, are they lazy, negligent and stupid?

If it was really considered "murder" the state would be enforcing the law and prosecuting violators, instead of enticing citizens to civilly sue, with a $10,000 prize if they can successfully prove someone gave aid to a woman seeking an abortion.
The people against abortion consider it murder. Those ar ethe people you are online arguing with.
But, they're okay with "murder" before a heart beat can be detected. Or, is this 6 week line supposed to be some kind of temporary gracious compromise?

How can you say that a young teen, maybe even preteen that ends up pregnant because of sexual abuse is stupid, or laxy,, irresponsible, or anything else? How is the mother of that child irresponsible for seeking medical help for the child, and after listening to the doctors advice decided the abortion should be terminated?
There is no exception in the law!!! The state has made it open season to harass that little girl and her family just as they have any irresponsible, lazy, stupid, whatever people..
If they don't have the heart to make an exception for children, they have no heart.

Just responding to you in kind after your "good choices" comments.
Typical of folks like you though....can dish but can't take it. Get to your safe space fast!
And yes, I do feel much better.
Had abortion been kept as a rarity, instead of a culture war that has celebrities telling how proud they are to have had an abortion, you likely wouldn't have seen this happen.

And they don't pay for on demand abortions. But, on demand abortions can be, and are performed by many OB/GYNs that do accept those reimbursements for covered services, but like Planned Parenthood, are not reimbursed for abortions, and so they accept other methods of payment.
