Do you agree that abortion is essential healthcare? (Page 5)

[AdithyaR]

Of course it's part of healthcare

[kinkyoldman]

No, killing babies is not a right.

[Reaper1985]

only if getting sterilized is also healthcare.

[Smashingdoozy]

Of course.

[IsoUser]

It's inherently a woman's right!

[Agape93]

Yeap 100%

[skeetskeetskeet]

I think religion should be kept out of health care

[msc545]

Abortion is not healthy for babies

[EnglishEuropean]

No, because pregnancy isn't a disease.

[UCrayCray]

@englisheuropean
Healthcare is only used to treat diseases?

[anon1903]

But if she wants to abort the kid, it should still be legal. I know you think you're saving a life but you'd be surprised how many parents in the world are neglectful and abusive, because the kid ruin their lives.

[EnglishEuropean]

@anon1903 I'm pro-choice but let's not call it healthcare when a woman wants to terminate her pregnancy for a non-medical reason.

[EnglishEuropean]

@UCrayCray To treat or prevent them, yes. Or failing that, for palliative care.

[UCrayCray]

And that’s it?
You don’t think things like personal injury require healthcare?

[EnglishEuropean]

@UCrayCray Yes I forgot that. It's funny because I've had treatment for injuries myself.

[UCrayCray]

Okay. That’s fine.
But you understand how that negates your initial comment, yes?
Abortion doesn’t have to be a disease to be considered essential healthcare.

[EnglishEuropean]

@UCrayCray Pregnancy isn't an injury either so I think my position remains valid.

[UCrayCray]

Hmmm…. it can cause some serious injuries.
Yes it can

[EnglishEuropean]

@UCrayCray You're addressing a rare case where pregnancy would endanger the health of the mother. That's different to a woman just not being arsed to bring up a child.

[Abinav021]

Yes only if necessary

[BCRanger10]

No, it is not.

[Anonymous]

It is for some people, that's for sure.

[Anonymous]

Abortion is not healthcare.

[Anonymous]

No, I am against abortion IN ALL CASES.

[WhitneySnow]

I agree that it is

[Dkc123]

My ass

[DARKCLOUD1945X]

Not for the fetus!

[MountAverage]

It should be.

[MrJMM]

Yeah.

[LimitedBenefits101]

Abortion= MURDER
