    If somehow a one year old got pregnant I would totally expect her to be able to get an abortion. This just seems like common sense, no?

    Tell me you don’t understand the basic anatomy and physiology you are regulating without telling me…

    Infant pregnancy is one of our country’s greatest issues and this guy doesn’t even want to do anything about it!

    Abortion should be compulsory for anyone pregnant under 13. That’s the age we set for protecting children from the dangers of social media, and pregnancy is a heck of a lot more dangerous than that

    … 1 year olds kids.
    Nevermind the fact that 1y.o. aren’t fertile, normal people go their entire lives without ever thinking about impregnating 1 year olds.
    And yea, if you somehow magically got a 1 y.o. pregnant, I sure as fuck hope they’d be able abort.

      I literally started screaming in my head (though, to be fair, most of my internal dialogue is just screams these days) , “WELL IF SOMEONE SOMEHOW GETS A ONE YEAR OLD PREGNANT, OBVIOUSLY THEY SHOULD HAVE AN ABORTION!” And then this guy’s mom should have a really, really late post-term abortion. What the fuck is wrong with with conservatives?

    Hmmm… Show me a pregnant 1 year old and I will show you a little girl in desperate need of an abortion and a new home with people who actually will love her as one should a 1 year old.

    Seriously, how fucking stupid do you need to be to actually utter something like this. I don’t care if it is supposed rhetorical hyperbole, it just oozes with /r/NotHowGirlsWork energy.

    Dude, you wouldn’t fucking believe it. I was at the clinic, killing my baby, and there was this fucking toddler doing the same thing. I mean, I’m a fucking grown man and I paid for my partner to scramble the brains of our unborn child, as is our right. But this little kid was there, doing the same thing. Couldn’t have been more than 4yo.

    STOP TINY CHILDREN FROM KILLING TINIER CHILDREN.

    I mean, at some point, you just gotta have a limit.

    The left has lost their minds! One year olds should carry their pregnancies to term, think about the children!!
