Do you think that there would be fewer unintended pregnancies if it were harder to obtain an abortion?

No.

Well when you tell me that I was right please use the word “correct” since I’m left. 

Right about what?

He ran on punishing women for having abortions. This is what his evangelical base wants. 

This is an unfair characterization of their views though. It would be like saying “Hillary ran on women having the right to slaughter and rip babies limb from limb into a bloody mess. This is what her feminist base wants.”

Would that sound like an accurate assessment of the pro-choice position to you?

As a child of an unwanted pregnancy in the late 60's I thank God for Catholic Charities.

Cant speak for New Orleans live 45 mins East of........However, here where Katrina hit.....the majority flat out refused to leave. 

I know. I was part of a group that took several trailers of donations down. (Not bragging. Ultimately, my motivations were selfish.) We talked to a guy in Waveland who stayed home with his two little girls. They had to escape the house by swimming from a second floor window to a tree. During the storm. Smdh. Still felt sorry for the guy. He was worried FEMA would leave before they bulldozed his house. 

Hope you and your family pulled through ok.

Yes, if I’m following where he is going with the question - in light of views he’s expressed before. Is that ok Alex or did I jump the gun?

Worked logistics for 30 days post Katrina in multiple roles, but one was providing food, shelter and clothing. One of life's most rewarding experiences, helping others.

Kind of like when it’s said the Trump admin rips/tears/claws infant children out of the arms of their mothers, picks them up, and throws them through the air into cages. 

Spot on, Titan.

Indeed.......some areas of Pass Christian and Waveland took much longer but rebuilt none the less.

How in hell is defunding planned parenthood a positive, regardless of what happens to Roe v. Wade?  That's just irrational.

 

They are the leading purveyor of abortions...if we are going to fund actually having and raising children, what need is there for Planned Parenthood?  Kind of obvious Homey

I stopped counting how many times I’ve been referred to as a baby killer because I’m a Democrat. So we are characterized that way. And Trump did say women should be punished for having an abortion. Evangelicals, you, me and a few others excluded,  got behind that. Their goal is to abolish Roe v Wade and that’s why they cast their lot with Trump.

Ironic. I’ve stopped counting how many times I’ve been called a white privileged bigot racist.
