Surely, ... pro-choicers should likewise be willing to object loudly to forced abortions – and agree (at the very least) that the “doctors” who perform third-trimester abortions, murder newborn babies, and maim their mothers are monsters.

I object to the use of the term "mothers" for these females.

I understand why pro-lifers created the myth that these women are "just another victim of abortion." And no doubt this is somewhat true of some of them.

But it doesn't change the fact that if abortion is murder, then all involved are at minimum accessories to that murder.

And don't call me Shirley.

I'm not so sure that's all on the shoulders of pro-lifers. I think that many women who get abortions fall into the victimhood role because it's easier on the conscience to say "I was forced/coerced into having an abortion" than to say "I chose of my own free will to have an abortion," when they are trying to come to terms with the guilt they feel afterwards.

I think it is more true of more of them than most folks realize.

OTOH, nobody is more aware of the enormity and hideousness of abortion than a repentant post-abortive woman.
