Well? It is what it is. It's not fear mongering. You live in denial of what something really is. That seems really strange to me. To call it "women's rights".....shit that's just liberal language corruption.

It kind of IS fear mongering. "Dem Wimmenz be killing the little babies!" Sorry, but that's the uneducated voice I hear whenever I read or hear something like "killing fetuses". Your making the choice to not have a baby. No one (anymore) is putting a stake into a child's head upon birth. You're not killing a child, you're flushing out a collection of cells that haven't had time to develop into anything. LATE TERM ABORTIONS ARE ILLEGAL, in case you weren't aware.

Uh no. 5 months is not just a collection of cells. It's a fetus.

But again, I'm not for making all abortion illegal. I'm just pointing out that this is the litmus test for many hipsters. If a politician is for abortion they are OK. Just a terrible litmus metric, IMHO. Many (not all) are for banning all guns - for the children. It's not logical in my small mind.

The right uses guns as a similar litmus test. Abortion is heavily tied up with women's rights, so gets seen as part of a bigger picture. Same with guns.
