Pro-choice in all cases.

It's extremely unlikely that a woman is going to have an elective abortion if she's eight months pregnant - and putting in health requirements are often too vague and can place unnecessary restrictions to allow states to restrict it for no good reason.

Some people murder their children who are already born, so why do people act like no one would murder a third trimester unborn baby?

Because nobody has a child for the express purpose of murdering them. That evil act is rationalized later. This is sort of a disingenuous comparison.

What if someone wanted a child and then changes their mind?

That is a ridiculous question. Medical ethics dictate the available courses of action.

There’s an alternative to abortion. Adoption is that alternative. Also, the perspective father should have a choice in the matter and most would choose life instead of murder.



Men should not control women's bodies. They're not the ones getting pregnant.

In most circumstances, it would be bad for a woman in a stable relationship to hide their pregnancy or abortion from their partner, and I believe the father has a right to know and express their opinion, but the final decision can only be the mother's, and if her decisions are upsetting to her partner, that is a marital issue for them to resolve and not for the state.
