The problem is that you’re blending up rights, laws, and morals and acting like they should be perfectly consistent with each other. They never are. Just because someone states abortion is morally wrong after 26 weeks doesn’t mean they believe the government should make it illegal after 26 weeks.

The government should place no restrictions on abortion. Choice should be the woman’s, and any restrictions should come from the medical side, based on knowledge, technology, and ethics. Any problem with that?

People keep raising points (or hypotheticals!) and you keep leaping into “oh so you agree with/believe/think THIS other thing then??” Just stop. Take a lap. It’s not contributing anything. If you actually care about abortion-rights, which I’m not sure if you do or not, you’re going to have to embrace people who don’t like abortion but are on the same side.
