Why are conservatives and left wingers who want more democrats to vote, perfectly OK letting child rape victims be forced to give birth?

I honestly don't understand it either. I mean not only does it just seem generally inhumane but from a medical perspective it also seems very unwise. Someone on another forum posted this story in response to the story about the child rape victim in Ohio.

https://www.batimes.com.ar/news/argentina/baby-of-raped-11-year-old-girl-who-had-undergone-a-c-section-in-tucuman-died.phtml

So basically this story is from 2019, an 11 year old child rape victim was denied an abortion and as result had to have a cesarean section at 23 weeks to try and save both both lives. The baby born at 23 weeks died. In any case it seems like such an unnecessary risk to take with a child, its as it female lives aren't included in the whole "prolife" view once they can bear children.

Some Americans couldn't care less about children.

I don't even like kids. But even I have a limit. Like I told another user, if you're able to out casual cruelty me, then you need some soul searching

[lightbulb27]

Good question. I dont.


I've met these people and they are only thinking about the life lost.

No rape victim should be forced to give birth, white, black, brown, red, yellow, pink.

Not a conservative but from the ones I talked to (argued with about this, let's be real) they mainly bring up either one of both of these two points: 1) Its not the baby's fault they are there and don't deserve to be "punishment" and 2) Pregnancy from rape rarely happens therefore is completely irrelevant and should not be taken seriously as the people who it DOES happen to don't need any sort of support because they're not enough of them. Makes sense... totally.

They say that life begins at conception. So although a huge assault has already happened they say that adding a murder to that isn’t reasonable

[Agape93]

Personally anyone who'd force a kid through that, is just as bad and deserves to be put against the wall.

[BarryLiverstone]

Right, it’s horrible. Yet that’s what they believe

[Agape93]

I despise kids. I don't like being around them. They're gross, annoying, destructive and entitled. But even im. not that cruel, and when you out cruel me, you need to do some soul searching

[Hannajenky]

Pro life is a toxic stance even for republicans, and they are losing seats because of this issue

[worldscolide]

Dunno, us republicans where I live voted to keep abortion legal..

[Agape93]

Exactly. Actual Republicans did, but most conservatives and teabaggers didn't.

[TallAnon]

No idea, sounds like an American thing

[jamesgoldman]

Because they want to farm more democrats
