Sure, all good methods, if you are in a relationship or having consensual sex, but what about rape victims, young girls and when the mother's life is in danger?
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura

I say let them have abortions, mainly from a stance of practicality. If we can get it down to this portion of cases that's a big step in the right direction.

They certainly can be. A joke can be funny regardless of subject matter. It is all to do with how it is done.

And who reads it. That's important too. Very important to not make black jokes at a black convention... unless their response is your punch line

In this case I'm all for the life that has developed into an (hopefully!) adult individual and so not care much for the cell clump that has the potential to become a human being. Rape is bad enough as it is, a woman should not need to be reminded of it for the next nine months what happened, and carry a rapist genetic material to the next generation. If she wants to keep it I don't mind, it's her choice, but I can never judge a woman who wants to abort a rape pregnancy.
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human.

Continue to fuck over the victim...some system of ethics you have there Chad.
Immediately terminating an unwanted pregnancy after rape could hardly be described as "shredding an unborn child's body".
