Is it really that tough to process? You don't have a right to abortion for its own sake. The reason we defend peoples' ability to get one is because of basic rights and principles that apply to everyone: the right to self-determination and that their bodies should be inviolable.

This is like an object lesson on Mill's warning about dead dogmas.
Your going to make a great politician.
