      1. A modest proposal: if you think abortion is murder, you should support mandatory vasectomies for every boy that hits puberty. That vasectomy would be (temporarily) reversed when man & partner want to have a child. Result: zero abortions.https://twitter.com/everywhereist/status/1126647518161448960 …

      You know what? Vasectomies are reversible. Why not just make all men get them? And then if they're truly ready to be a father, they can undo them. What's that? You have problems with this? Yes, you're right, it's wrong to regulate men's bodies like that.

      Babies don't die when people have sex. Nor when women get pregnant.

      You do know that nearly a third of pregnancies end in miscarriage?

      And? 100% of people end in death. Doesn't make it okay to kill someone.

      Most post-womb deaths take place at the end of a long life. If you believe every embryo is a person, then the fact that most pregnancies end in abortion or miscarriage should disturb you enough to accept a radical solution. Get a vasectomy.

          I don't understand how that follows. I'm willing to keep and raise the kids I'm producing. In a year or two, we might be finished and indeed a vascectomy is on the table. What do miscarriages have to do with it? I shouldn't have kids b/c they might die?

          Because these laws will make women who miscarry, which happens often & not a single medical professional knows why they happen, guilty of having an abortion. Doctors who remove a still born child or the cells that failed to develope, ectopic pregnancies will be criminally libel.
