I wonder if it was more an assumption that the rules only applied to viable pregnancies.

I mean I'm pro-choice but I'd assume anyone pushing to ban abortion is aiming to prevent viable pregnancies from being terminated while still allowing medically necessary or unviable pregnancies to be terminated.

How do they justify that? I mean I can see why people would be against aborting viable fetuses, but a fetus that will never live seems absurd.

I guess we also force dying people to wait it out, so maybe it's on trend.

Nah. The point of this is to punish women for having sex.

If they die, the harlot shouldn’t have spread her legs.

If she was raped - no she wasn’t.

The whole point is to punish women for taking control of our bodies and then becoming full citizens. Cis white men HATE women.
