...And therein lies the problem. Many people don't consider male circumsicion genital mutilation, and many people don't consider abortion killing a human life. And many DO consider them those things. As an example, I would be ok with making a cake for a Jewish circumcision ceremony, but would be horrified at the thought of making one for a pro choice fundraiser.
Many people, yourself included, are wrong ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
This is hardly the venue to debate abortion.

It wouldn't really be fair for the government to arbitrarily deem one ok to be refused and not the other. It has to be more objective than that.
I honestly don't think the right to be a petty bastard is as important as you're making it out to be
"Every luxury has a deep price. Every indulgence, a cosmic cost. Each fiber of pleasure you experience causes equivalent pain somewhere else. This is the first law of emodynamics [sic]. Joy can be neither created nor destroyed. The balance of happiness is constant.
Fact: Every time you eat a bite of cake, someone gets horsewhipped.
Facter: Every time two people kiss, an orphanage collapses.
Factest: Every time a baby is born, an innocent animal is severely mocked for its physical appearance. Don't be a pleasure hog. Your every smile is a dagger. Happiness is murder.
Vote "yes" on Proposition 1321. Think of some kids. Some kids."
