    I am not obsessed with black and brown people, am not homophobic, don't tell women what they can and can't do with their bodies and pregnancies and participate in my own threads instead of playing hit and run with hot button topics.

    YMMV.

    Why and how should they be encouraged and incentivised to carry, birth and raise/give up for adoption?

    What is in it for a woman who does not want neither pregnancy nor motherhood/surrogacy?

    Do you really wish to turn women into stock-farm animals?

    It is ONE reason why termination of pregnancy may be considered. Peripartum depression is not “the baby blues” but a very real life threatening mental illness

    I have seen that when a person who is not wanted becomes President. People get so upset, they talk about blowing up the white house.

    I am and have been talking from an international point of view. In fact the first two scenarios should have been recognised by you as they have been the point of discussions on this board

    Can you give us a personal story supporting that claim?
    This poll polls on a legal issue. Why bother?

    You asked about lawful reasons to get an abortion.

    I wonder why?

    No, and this is my comment again.
    I have seen that when a person who is not wanted becomes President. People get so upset, they talk about blowing up the white house.

    She was loud and in public and wanted to blow up the White House and listen to her crowd of women cheering her on.

    Because surprise surprise other countries have abortion laws too and guess what? The abortion rates are much the same as in those countries where it is legal but the maternal mortality rate is not something anyone wants to know about

    That is truly a strange form of argument given you replied to a poster who did not mention animals.

    I have no idea what you are talking about or how you even drew racist conclusions from my four word post.

    Abortion is good because it is moral -- It ensures women can be free to live their lives the way they prefer and helps them break free from the chains of nature.

    Not wanting to be a mother and doing what one can to live one's life that way is moral. Not wanting kids, but having kids anyways is immoral.

    Abortion is good because the standard of value is the only life involved in the decision, the woman.

    Now you tell me why abortion is bad without mentioning God, moral duties/obligations or equating an embryo to a toddler.

    Actually there has been studies on why abortion is good. I tried to give you an example of the findings.
    Why do you believe it was racist?
    This is strange to read Abortion is good for moral reasons.

    My main thinking on the bad of abortion is the loss of life in our country due to this. I wonder how many future presidents we got rid of?

    Demographics do not interest me one bit. I do not even believe "race" is a valid concept and what skin tone, height or weight a woman happens to be of is completely irrelevant to my position on abortion. I do not even think it matters one bit how she got pregnant.
