You can make excuses all you want. All "pro-lifers" can go fuck themselves.

If this experience didn't change the patient's mind about identifying as and voting "pro-life", I might agree with you.

Where does it say her mind was changed, or is it implied?

[–] [email protected] 3 points 4 days ago

I didn't mean to imply her mind was or wasn't changed. I meant that if it was, I'm unwilling to condemn her. If I knew it wasn't I might be willing to condemn her. Not knowing whether she changed her mind after, I wouldn't be willing to condemn her without equivocation.

Just because I think we should have legal and safe abortion access doesn't mean we should root for people to die when it happens to them.

I'm perfectly fine with people facing the consequences for their beliefs.

I think the lack of empathy is part of the problem.

[–] [email protected] 5 points 4 days ago

I don't have empathy for people who support inflicting pain and suffering on others through legislation.
