Description
Why do pro-lifers truly care about human lives?
Round 1
Forfeited
Just waiting for him to forfeit this round too
Round 2
I believe pro lifers aren't actually pro life, because banning abortions doesn't consider the safety of the mother.
-if abortions are banned that only stops safe abortions. it doesn't stop them from happening (not considering the safety of the mother)
-abortions carry fewer medical risks than a full term pregnancy for most people
-doctors having to turn women away from the care they need until they are finally considered "sick enough" and nearly dead to have that healthcare. (atleast from what i can gather this happens in the US)
(i wanted to keep this one short to start off, and i apologise im not chronically online. but i would like a respectful debate if thats not too much to ask)

Camt do the debate, but this would be interesting to read, esp because gun control is a tag, and because of pro's pfp
I make that argument regarding their leadership, but when applied to the broad category it doesn't hold water.
That being said, this largely depends on definitions.
I am pro abortion, really. I hold strong belief that abortion is morally mandatory if person is pregnant.
