      Miwojedk If I were to say that I value the life of the fetus equally as a person, how would I not be infringing on the bodily autonomy of the fetus by aborting it? The fetus is dependant on the mother in a similar manner a baby is dependant on the mother, no?

    yeah thats a good point actually. I suppose it just goes to show the various ways people fundamentally see it.


    personally think that it wouldnt be infringing if, let's say, the pregnancy would result in either the mother or the child's health being severely affected

    I think what some of us here is missing is the fact that we're not seeing the problem for what it is, but rather, just a number on some graph. It's definitely much more than that, imo.


    It doesn't matter whether the percentages show that only 20% of the cases is because of this, or if 5% of the cases is because of that. It doesn't change the fact that by overturning this precedent, we're removing the choice and the basic rights of a person to bodily autonomy.


    Because now when you look at it, what would happen to those who DID and will fall under that "small percentage" of cases?
