Likewise, I’m pro dental care but I don’t like root canals. From a moral standpoint, abortion and root canals are equal: they are invasive and unpleasant but necessary medical procedures. When you need one, you need one. Limiting access, let alone banning or criminalIzing either procedure, is needlessly cruel, helps no one and contributes to human suffering.
