Why are right wingers obsessed with abortion?

Most anti-abortion people do not see protecting life as irrational. If they see abortion as murder (morally) that does not make it any more irrational than murder laws after birth.

It is just a political decision whether government should have laws permitting or prohibiting abortion.

Abortion is not murder.

If they fear white people will be outnumbered it seems like they would favor abortion. Only 39% of abortions are white while over 60% are black, Hispanic, or other.

Yet it's the whites trying to deny reproductive freedom to *all* women. They're forced birthers. We both know their stance on lower-income ppl needing public assistance.

Abortion is not murder not matter how they try to spin it. It is a medical procedure. They might as well claim that cutting out a tumor is "murder," or removing a damaged, gangrenous limb. We do not base our laws on opinion or feelings.

Not legally but anti-abortion people think it is immoral and therefore oppose it. If they want to make laws against it that is their political choice (within the limits of Roe). It doesn't matter if their opposition is based strictly on religion as long as the law itself does not address religion.

US law does not define abortion as murder. Change the law if your religion orders you.

Maybe not, but if that is their opinion they are free to pursue those policies.

I think many of our laws are based on opinion or feelings. It is your opinion that Biden's spending proposals are good or bad.

Not murder. Opinion. At least you acknowledge that

I have many opinions too, but I don't seek to shove them down the throats of other people and deprive them of their own personal freedom. For instance, I think tats might be pretty art, but they are (IMO) grossly disfiguring to the human body. Ditto for body piercings. Yet somehow I manage not to go picket in front of tattoo parlors and harangue those who go in to get decorated or punctured. Abortion ppl need to worry about their own bodies and keep their opinions off of other ppl's.

Yeah I love tattoos on sexy women. But I would never get one, ever.

As to stretching the earlobes and lips? That is truly disturbing. I will never understand why they do that.

Agreed. But laws can prohibit abortion whether you call it murder or not. In some states shooting a pregnant woman and killing her child is a type of murder. The law can define murder however it chooses.

"The Unborn Victims of Violence Act of 2004 (Public Law 108-212) is a United States law which recognizes an embryo or fetus in utero as a legal victim, if they are injured or killed during the commission of any of over 60 listed federal crimes of violence. The law defines "child in utero" as "a member of the species Homo sapiens, at any stage of development, who is carried in the womb."
