What kills more children: Abortion or Poverty?

[OddBeMe]

Seems hypocritical to focus on one and not the other.

Abortion

Poverty

[Cubus]

WHO says there are 73 000 000 abortions each year (and it doesn't include early-abortion pills, so it's actually a lot more)

Again according to WHO - sth like 6 300 000 children die yeach year, from birth to 15 years old (and "poverty only" is less than that).

So it turns out a lot more die from abortion.

[NorthwestRider]

Poverty duh

Also abortions cut down poverty

[Kelsey07]

worldwide id think poverty, but i have no facts to back that up so i very well can be wrong!

[joeldalton]

Poverty is horrible. I certainly would never want to do something to exacerbate it like shutting down businesses, printing money to give to billionaires and making it worthless, giving 40 billion to Ukraine, and creating historical levels of inflation.

[OddBeMe]

oh you trumpers use every post to push your pro-Putin agenda.

[joeldalton]

Awe, you and Hillary love lying about Russia. So cute.

[Slingblade1126]

OddBeMe, obviously you don't need to answer this but do you see abortion as taking a human life? I'm not being argumentative, I'm just not clear about your stance.

[BayTiger]

Abortion has a fatality rate of 100% for the baby. Impoverished countries tend to have higher birth rates and population growth. Statistically abortion kills more and it’s not even close.

[OddBeMe]

Sure but so masturabtion for sperm cells.

[BayTiger]

Sperm cells don’t have heartbeats like unborn babies.

[OddBeMe]

so a heartbeat is your only factor for determining who's a person?

[BayTiger]

It’s a reasonable time period to restrict abortions in my opinion. If anything that’s too generous. We’re not talking about sperm though. We’re talking about kicking and screaming babies that you want to rip out of the womb via late term abortion. That’s barbaric.

[OddBeMe]

When do fetuses start kicking and screaming?

[BayTiger]

It’s a figure of speech. Babies can kick and cry sometime during the second trimester of a pregnancy. Hundreds of thousands of babies have been aborted during this time period. Do you support limits on late term abortion, or do you think it should be legal to rip the baby out the womb at any point during the pregnancy?

Abortion itself is a result of a certain type of poverty.

[Anonymous]

I thought you said Trump killed more people than both combined?

I mean he is worse than Hitler, isn’t he?

[OddBeMe]

don't think I ever said that. He did exacerbate the covid pandemic but so did every republican in congress. And all you anti vaxxers. But what else is new...

[exitseven]

I say abortion. Poverty really is not a cause of death.

[Aurora1010]

It is in some countries where kids starve or face health problems from malnutrition or other conditions and where the family doesn't have the money to get them the right medical attention.

[888theGreat]

@Aurora1010 because thugs rule their countries and keep all aid

[Aurora1010]

@888theGreat yeah

[888theGreat]

60 million babies killed from abortion since 1973 . 150,000 a day. Poverty doesn't kill , it is a living condition.

[msc545]

Probably abortion but it is impossible to tell for sure and it also does not matter. a dead child is a dead child and even one is too many.

[Shamalien]

In developed countries like Canada and America? Gotta be abortion

[Dargil]

Here? Abortion. Elsewhere, poverty.

[NathanDavis]

Malaria

[TheAfrikan]

This is all about poverty

[josephinelcajon]

Child abuse is #1
