How about this:
“Rape is a CRIME. It is a personal, traumatic crime. Every resource should be made available to a person who is a victim of such a trauma. They alone get to decide how to move forward after experiencing such a horrible assault. It’s horrible beyond words. Abortion is not a crime. Rape is. Do you see the difference now? I will not exploit rape victims to make a political point or as an excuse to set policy. I think that would be cruel.” or something like that,,we could do our conservative reps a favor by having a debate thread,,why not? Where we poke holes in every possible issue so that the conservative side can think about a strategy and come up with a response. What do you say Jim? We can call it the “Devil’s Advocate” forum and throw slings/arrows at conservative positions in order to shore them up for prime time.
The flaw in your thinking is that abortion IS a crime.
Abortion IS a crime.
A crime against God.
A crime against the child.
A crime against the moral basis of American law and justice.
A crime against posterity.
A gross violation of every stated purpose of the U.S. Constitution and its explicit, imperative requirements.
"No person shall be deprived of life without due process of law."
"No State shall deprive any person of life without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws."
