Seriously though, if “they might have cured cancer!” is an argument against abortion, is “they might have been a serial killer!” an argument in favor of it?

Pro-Lifers Really Don’t Get It

Or they just don’t care if you know they don’t care about what criminalizing abortion would mean for women.

On Monday, a pro-choice blogger called out “the worst marketing decision ever”: An Ohio dry cleaner who puts pro-life messages on wire coat hangers.

Springdale Cleaners, a dry cleaning chain with 10 locations in the Greater Cincinnati area, returns laundered clothing to customers on hangers that read “Choose Life” beside an image of the owner’s granddaughter.

“I think it’s the perfect place to advertise a pro-life message,” Springdale Cleaners owner Paul Dehler told HuffPost. The 66-year-old said he printed the images on the hangers to support his sister, who’s opposed to women’s right to choose an abortion.

“I don’t get into all that,” Dehler said of the abortion debate. “I’m just putting the message out there, and doing it for my sister.”

Wow.

Oh my god. What a maniac.

“Well unfortunately, and most of my employees are Hispanic — I’m not gonna go into what kind of company I have, but I have mostly Hispanic employees — well unfortunately we know what happened and I can’t wait around anymore, I have to be proactive. I had to lay off 22 people today to make sure that my business is gonna thrive and I’m gonna be around for years to come. I have to build up that nest egg now for the taxes and regulations that are coming my way. Elections do have consequences, but so do choices. A choice you make every day has consequences and you know what, I’ve always put my employees first, but unfortunately today I have to put me and my family first, and you watch what’s gonna happen.”

This hijacking of the trappings of the women’s movement to try and shape abortion as a feminist matter because XX fetuses are also aborted is absolutely infuriating and so transparent I can’t believe anyone would think this was a good tactic.

Although it has obvious flaws, I agree with Az’s new law

i-am-radscum:

prolifeproblems:

That bans abortions after twenty weeks, including cases of fetal abnormality.  Many Pro Choicers are focusing on the fact that this would force families to carry nonviable pregnancies to term, which I agree is rough for those (only non viable) cases.

However, this also means that a woman cannot decide that they want to kill her child after twenty weeks simply because one of his legs looks longer in an ultrasound.  Because that technically is a fetal abnormality. 

oh my god

no one has ever done that, and no one ever will

Has no problem with women having to carry non-viable fetuses to term/risking sepsis by having to wait until dead fetuses are expelled naturally/having to give birth to fetuses with horrible genetic defects like Tay Sachs.

Has a HUGE problem with an imaginary case in which a woman would abort a fetus because “one of their legs looks longer than the other” on a grainy ultrasound.

Pro-life, everyone. Pro-life, anti-choice, anti-logic.

It’s inside my body
it’s grown from my body
it feeds itself from my body, while depleting nutrients from my body 
it can ruin my body
it is the cause of possibly permanent hormonal and physical changes in my body
It cannot survive outside of my body (for a certain amount of time)
It would not exist if it were not for my body
I’m pretty sure it’s still my fucking body, and my choice what to do with it is still inside of my body.

Also: Backing a decision for a law with a scripture is poor debate skills. 

Pro-lifers are pathologically unable to represent fetuses at accurate stages of development for when abortion is legal and possible. If you had a legitimate argument, you wouldn’t have to rely on scripture and emotional manipulation to make it.

Yeah, that’s sort of close.

Or not.
Pro-lifers, if your argument had merit you wouldn’t have to lie, distort, and appeal to emotions to get people on your side. But you do, so…

We can’t clamp down on guns because they’d resort to illegal means to procure them

But that doesn’t keep them from trying to restrict abortion.

OH SHI —
