“Have you or have you not been advocating for women who have been raped to have abortions?”

I have not. I have been arguing for rape victims to not be forced to become pregnant. This means that I support them being given a choice under a rape exception to any law banning abortion.

You are either ignorant of the difference or you are a liar.

That is a distinction without a difference.

Rape victims are either pregnant or they aren't, if they ARE pregnant the only way to keep them from having the baby is for the baby to die.

You are either ignorant of the difference or you are a liar.

I'm not ignorant of anything or lying.

If a woman is pregnant, there are ONLY TWO outcomes:
1. The baby is born alive.
2. The baby dies before birth. This can happen on it's own, or the death can be caused intentionally.

You may not be pro-abortion, but every post you have made on this thread is pro-choice on the matter.

Do you realize that impregnation from rape occurs at the time of the rape, not later? So there's nothing you can do after the rape to prevent impregnation from the rape which already occurred. If you intend to prevent rapes from resulting in impregnation, you must arrange for that in advance. You must identify either the rapist or the victim in advance, and apply pregnancy preventive measures on them before the rape occurs. Why would you do that, and not try to prevent the rape?

Of course I realize you didn't really mean what you said. I'm sure what you really want is to terminate [abort] the pregnancy once it has begun.
