    Abortion should be legal at any trimester, for any reason. No one has the right to use your body without your consent (unless Republicans succeed). Pretty sure that’s how it is in Canada.

      Some people do it even years after birth, so there are always someone pushing it.

      Point is that “tour right To swing your fist ends just where my nose begins”

      At some point those cells become person wether that is after three months, nine months or nine years is up to debate. I think medical professionals are best equipment to advice us.

      I don’t believe you will find many doctors willing to do abortion in 7th month.

        You are arguing in favor of abortion when you say “your right to swing your fist ends where my nose begins” I can’t believe you don’t see that. The principle says that we are generally free, but we don’t have the right to harm or infringe upon someone else. But, that’s exactly what’s happening when a woman is forced to give from her body to support a child. You are giving the child the right to swing their fist wherever, regardless of who it harms.

        The cells are a person from the very beginning. They are a person, and it is not wrong to abort them. It’s the most compassionate way to interpret our autonomy rights. The alternative is forced incubation.

      I disagree, but once again, almost any western nation disagrees with you.

      No one has the right to use your body without your consent

      There’s a decent argument bringing a life into this world by choice is consent.

      Pretty sure that’s how it is in Canada.

      Canada is one of the very few nations to decriminalize abortions totally.

        Great, so Canada got it right, and you’re obviously swinging the weight of “western nations” as if it has any relevance. What matters is what can be argued to be correct, and I’ve argued that using bodily autonomy. You’ve argued… You’re right because most western nations agree. Totally barbaric and ignorant of my argument, but that’s obvious. You completely misunderstand consent, but that’s not surprising. I was taught that consent can be withdrawn, but you imply like she has to sit there and take it if she consented originally. Bizarre view of consent you have.

          No, they enacted a policy that you agree with. That doesn’t make it ‘right.’

          and you’re obviously swinging the weight of “western nations” as if it has any relevance.

          It does, we’re most comparable with other first world countries and specifically western countries. Pretty much in every comparable metric where we want to see how we’re doing, we compare it to first world european nations.

          What matters is what can be argued to be correct

          There is no ‘correct’ - just because you agree with it, doesn’t mean every single country needs to listen to you and enact policies you agree with. You have mad main character syndrome.

          Believe it or, people disagree with some of your opinions, and that doesn’t make them ‘wrong’

        Where is your evidence that “almost every western nation disagrees with you”? Because I’ve seen many polls that say otherwise.

              The country as a whole has laws that disagree with it.

              The U.S. doesn’t permit honor killings, as a country we’re against it.

              In Iran, it’s legal, the country agrees with it.

              It’s not that hard to understand.

            None of these countries would permit an abortion at 28 weeks, let alone let her keep the babies remains.

            The article sheds no light on why she needed a late-term abortion. If something is permissible and publicly funded, chances are a person gets it done early, in a clinic, without hesitation. In case of wanting an abortion, delay is harmful, having to travel, smuggle something or fear something (or gather money) is harmful. Also note: those countries have a separate schedule for normal and exceptional conditions. Which is generally not possible in a political environment that has banned abortion (some cities in Nebraska - yes, in the US, cities can regulate abortion, very strange for me). Some examples that I know of:

            Estonia:

            • under normal conditions, 12 weeks
            • under exceptional conditions, 22 weeks (risk to health, severe foetal disease, raising the child is prevented by health or sanity, the pregnant is under 15 or over 45)

            Finland:

            • under normal conditions, 12 weeks
            • under exceptional conditions, 20…24 weeks (foetal abnormality gives a limit of 24 weeks)

            Latvia:

            • under normal conditions, 12 weeks
            • for medical reasons, 22 weeks
