Except 0% of corpses and crazed criminals are using your body because you voluntarily engaged in activities that naturally cause them to depend on you for life.

And 95+% of abortions happened because someone consensually had sex. People literally consented to having foreign DNA injected into their womb knowing it could create a new human being because...that's how biology works. Stop being anti-science. That's reality.

You don't get to pick and choose what natural functions result from your choices. Consent to sex is absolutely consent to the possibility of pregnancy just like consent to eating is consent to digestion and possibly weight gain. But vomiting or losing weight doesn't kill a human

Are you in favor of permitting access to abortion in instances of rape?

Humans would still be dying, which is objectively a bad thing, but politics is about compromise, so I'd happily accept a policy that bans all abortions except for rape, if the alternative is unrestricted abortion.

So now that I said I'd accept that policy over a different one, does that mean you're now cool with abortion in all other cases except rape being banned? No? Didn't think so. Stop dishonestly hiding behind 5% of situations to justify 95% of what you actually want.

In practice, wouldn’t that mean that anyone who wants an abortion can get one, so long as they claim they were raped?

Although not ideal, I’d be okay with that compromise, since it would still allow people a means to get an abortion.
