"With their own bodies" That's the part I take issue with.

Everything points to the fetus being it's own body, not a part of the mother.

She has her own heartbeat, her own fingerprints, her own brain waves, her own DNA, her own response to pain.

The child is her own person who deserves life regardless of the mistakes of the mother or the feelings of the public.

It's he/his, not she/her. In English when the gender is unknown or irrelevant the pronouns to use are he/him.

Indeed. Telling a woman she can't get an abortion is equally as restrictive to "her own body" as telling that same woman she can't put a bullet in my brain.

Except your body doesn't depend every single second on that woman's body to survive.

  1. Doesn't matter, barring the (extremely rare) case of rape, the woman made the choice to take actions which lead to pregnancy, and it's a separate living human being, and thus should not be slaughtered. 2. Thanks to SCIENCE! this may not be true in the near future. We have long been pushing back when premature babies are viable, and there is significant work on artificial wombs which show great promise. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2019/03/190326105650.htm https://www.theatlantic.com/health/archive/2017/04/preemies-floating-in-fluid-filled-bags/524181/ https://www.techexplorist.com/worlds-first-artificial-womb-humans/27131/
