They are not pro-life.
They have zero concern, as is evidenced in their policies and attitudes, for life after it leaves the womb.
Utter horsecrap, and you know it.
A good deal of the "quality of life" any child experiences, however, depends on the personal responsibility of the parents, for that will determine a great deal of the happiness level of a child. People seem to think a child can have a great life with enough money, even when there parents are irresponsible dipsticks, and that just isn't the case.
Children born below the poverty level in America will be on Medicaid; they, and their mother. That's a fact. I know of people who could afford to get married, but didn't because the guy got his girlfriend pregnant and didn't get married to ensure that the child and the baby's mother had Medicaid. And there is also the CHIP programs, which have been approved with bi-partisan support. And that's not even mentioning the large number of crisis pregnancy centers that are, to a disproportionate degree, funded by Evangelicals.
This child died because of parents' decision to crash our border, a decision that can have devastating effects on the health of a child with health issues making that journey. The care he received in an American hospital may well have prolonged his life.
Our safety-net policies have nothing to do with the morality abortion; these are separate conversations. Abortion affects the question of whether an unborn child is a human life (and I believe, unequivocally, that it is). This situation is due to a person making a bad decision to attempt to crash our border with a child who, apparently, had health problems. The child's death is not the fault of Americans, period. And that issue has nothing to do with abortion.
