Reply to comment by ericools in NH House passes abortion-rights protections by IBlazeMyOwnPath

People have to make all kinds of nuanced decisions. This is why this argument will go on forever and forever be used as an effective wedge issue.

Public policy should be to educate, provide contraception, and basically make abortion as unnecessary as possible, but it seems some want to have it both ways - don't educate, don't allow abortion, providing free contraception is condoning (or encouraging) "free sex."

The worst cases are the women who need D&C's due to ectopic pregnancies and the like and can no longer get them or have to go through hoops to get them, and then there are those whose babies have severe abnormalities and who will only live for a while after birth and women are being forced to carry to term.

This is "compassionate conservatism" I guess.

What people should do is mind their own business. There is no reason this should be something the government has anything to do with.

Even in cases like the recent lady in the news. Even after it affected her, she was still reticent. Conservatives just do not have the ability for compassion.
