Wow, people who don't know the difference between the words "baby" & "fetus!" A fetus is only a potential person
This is why people need to pay more attention in their biology class
The word you’re looking for is “embryo.” An embryo is not the same as a fetus. A fetus is nearing the point where it can survive independently outside of the womb, to the point where from about 24-25 weeks in, it is very likely to survive with modern medicine.
An embryo is what is what happens after a fertilized ovum (zygote) begins to rapidly multiply over and over again. At this point it would be accurate to say it is a cluster of cells. A fetus will begun to have formed all of its vital organs already, and goes threw the process of developing them further and growing them.
If you’re going to draw the line between infanticide and abortion, fetal viability is probably where you should be looking.
Also there is a difference because haploid cells like sperm and a fully fertilized egg, I would wager.
If men could get pregnant there would be a government funded abortion clinic on every block.
If we discount the fact that mammals are known for internal gestation, and that we define male and female based on who has the sperm and eggs respectively, (meaning aside from Transgender men, men would never be physically possible of getting pregnant) I would still say you’re full of shit.
It’s very evident that men lack the reproductive rights women have. For instance, if we were in the business of gender equality under, men should have the option to surrender their parental rights in favor of not paying child support in cases where the child has not been born yet. (Ie Financial Abortion) Hell, custody battles alone heavily skew against men, so this idea men are so privileged by society that they’d be given abortion rights is laughable to anyone who’s not a radical feminist.
But you won't say that because the "pro-life" movement (which doesn't care how many women have died for difficulty in obtaining abortions when needed) has nothing to do with morality; it's an excuse to control women's bodies
Even as someone who’s pro choice, this argumentation is a clear strawman. The pro-life position is generally that they are against abortion in cases that is not rape, incest, or life threatening. Also to discount their moral reasoning when, in their minds, they believe generally that it would have been women’s choices that allowed them to get pregnant in the first place and that having a child is the natural consequences of it, viewing the baby as being innocent and therefore not deserving of death. It’s not solely for controlling women.
I think it’s a necessary evil because people will naturally want abortions where legal or not, hence why the old Soviet Bloc, where abortion was illegal, saw women using coathangers to try and abort their children. It’s better for it to be legal, accessible and rare rather than potentially dangerous for all parties involved.
You do know that some people buy guns with the specific purpose of killing their own family or shooting up a school, right?
Trying to make the moral comparison from someone obtaining what is most likely an illegal firearm (minors can’t purchase legal firearms, which would be who is most likely to attend schools or to shoot them up) to commit a crime and abortion is probably not the best argument in favor of pro-choice, my dude.
Not to mention the many who bought for honest reasons then mistook their child for an intruder or had other accidents
Which is very, very rare and is no way accountable for the vast majority of gun deaths, which tend to be suicides.
On thing I know--from growing up around them--white supremacists love their guns.
You keep using that word, I do not think it means what you think it means.
It’s amazing how the Left cried wolf with “racism” and calling everyone they don’t like a Nazi that they had to jump to “white supremacist” as a buzzword instead. When will they learn their lesson?
Also the article linked is “ Young Black men and teens are killed by guns 20 times more than their white counterparts, CDC data shows.”
Should we tell her that’s because the majority of those is black on black crime caused by poverty and not hate crimes like she is insinuating?
Isn't it funny some conservatives go back & forth between pretending racism doesn't exist & calling people on the left racist?
That would be because it is a Strawman. Even then considering how common critical race theory is becoming in modern society, it would be fair to call the left racist at this point

Not really. Comedy is designed to ridicule and mock things in order to provide a new perspective on them. Even then, George Carlin is known for his satire and generally anti politically correct ways of expressing ideas.
I was basically taught everything that’s man made is more or less making some kind of point or argument, so that basically applies to comedy as well
