  1. I'd like to make the point that we should never use the exception to create the rule.
    It's an important part of the argument for sure, but it's ultimately only a small part.

  2. Abortion rights are NOT human rights. For gods sake. Roe V Wade was overreach and it was overturned as it should be. If you want to protect that right get an amendment.
