In Nutshell


Today [...] 28 states require a waiting period ranging from 24 to 72 hours to obtain an abortion. But only nine states require any waiting period at all to purchase a gun. There are 35 states that require so-called “abortion counseling” before a procedure, which may include misleading or outright false information dictated by the state legislature in a script that your doctor must read, whether they know it to be false or not. Some 24 states require an unnecessary ultrasound. But only six states require any form of training or certification courses to purchase a gun.

[...]

Potential life – with all its promise and power – means far more to these demagogues than the actual lives of people here on Earth, now.

For the personhood of embryos, they draft legislation. For the safety of living, playing, laughing children, they do nothing. The potential dreams of a not-yet-sentient organism are paramount – not because it is a human life, as demonstrated by their lack of commitment to actual living humans, but because it is inside of a woman.
