Hi, I know this is a big order for a rando anon to ask for in your inbox, but… do you have or know of a master-post of the statistics of abortion health issues/risks and the way the abortions are more risky than just giving birth/c-section? I’ve always seen yours and prolifeproliberty’s posts floating around that DO address it, but I never thought to save those sources… and now I find I need them due to an argument with family on the matter. If you’re able to, I truly would appreciate it.
Hello!
So this is a post I have saved where I compiled a bunch of sources on the matter (and the posts I link to link to their own sources within where the information comes from).
Here's one on the risks of chemical abortions.
This one tacks on a lot of additional useful sources to the post in the first link.
Another one.
A post about the mental health risks of abortion during adolescence.
This is a smaller post where I shared some sources on the risks of abortion.
I hope this was helpful and can at least give you a starting point.
Good luck!!

Justice for Laken Riley and fuck Black Lives Matter and all the evil racists who don’t care about her death because of her skin color.
Tumblr media
And for some reason, some white women will still protest and be anti-white to please these people. Wake up. They don't care about you and never will.

There is no definition of genocide that describes what Palestinians in Gaza are currently suffering, unless you believe Ukraine was committing a genocide of Russians in Donbas or that World War II was a genocide against Germans.
The word you’re looking for is “war”.
As it stands, there is only one motivation, besides emotional manipulation through hyperbole, that explains this misuse of “genocide”: that is, to minimize cynically what Jews have experienced repeatedly in our history. Holocaust inversion is Holocaust minimization. Genocide inversion is genocide minimization. If you have be referring to this conflict as a “genocide”, I can only conclude it is because you finally have the opportunity you’ve always waited for to engage safely in Holocaust denial.

@rants88 I don’t mean to be condescending but sorry it if came across that way.
But how typical to bow out the second you’re asked to support any of the very serious claims you’re making.
I know I’m not going to change your mind but you are saying some things that are objectively incorrect and I’m just trying to provide some information for you so you can see I’m not making up the things I say unlike the girl who posted that video.
I was just hoping you might actually care about the truth and look at things with a good faith effort to understand the other side.
You should always be open to changing your mind when you are exposed to new information.
I sincerely hope you learn more about this issue and that the more you learn the more pro-life you become :)

So your argument is that the person chose sex and thus chose the responsibility of a possible pregnancy…but what about rape??? You can get pregnant from that too, and it’s not a choice.
Less than 1% of abortions are due to rape so yeah in almost 100% of abortion cases the woman chose to have sex.
However, in cases of rape I still don't think getting an abortion is a good thing to do. You have to understand that the foundation of my pro-life position is that the unborn child is a living human being from the moment of conception. I hold a very firm view that killing children is a bad thing to do. I'm not ok with it under any circumstances. I am against killing children even if they were conceived through rape. If you wouldn't kill a three year old for being conceived through rape you shouldn't be ok with killing that same girl just because she's still in her mother's womb.
Killing a child is not ok. Period.
Rape is a very serious crime that needs to be dealt with but you don't deal with crime by killing an innocent child. We don't need to continue the cycle of violence. The baby is just as innocent as the mother. We don't even kill the rapist, but you want to give the death penalty to the baby?
No, the woman did not choose to have sex in this situation and she has been the victim of a brutal crime and she needs a lot of help and support. She needs counseling, medical care, emotional and even financial support. All of those things help rape victims more than abortion does.
Abortion doesn't help rape victims at all, honestly. It doesn't erase the trauma of rape and in many cases it just adds more. It's not safe for women and it doesn't become safe just because a woman was raped.
There is no benefit to a rape victim getting an abortion other than the emotional appeal.
But for the sake of argument, I'm ok with abortion being legal for rape victims if we can agree all other abortions should be illegal.
So is the rape victim really your concern here or are you just using them to argue for all abortions?

I admire, deeply, the way you stand your ground against the pro-aborts and always post such solid responses to even the most vicious attacks.
I was pro-choice until recently. Your arguing points, among others, made me want to learn more about a practice I had just mindlessly going along with, and I thank you for that.
I suppose my intention here is just to say that you make a world of difference by speaking the truth and not backing down. Even though I likely would not agree with you on some core world values, I always appreciate your thoughts.
In a culture that has drastically been divided, I like to think we can still find common ground and stand together.
Thank you for being who you are.
Thank you so much! I am so glad that I could be a little part of your journey away from the pro-choice camp.
Finding common ground feels like it's becoming a lost art these days and I so admire you for making that effort.
I appreciate you taking the time to send this as these encouraging messages mean so much to me!

@rants88 so you're basically ignoring everything I said, huh? Yes I have researched abortion bans restricting miscarriage care and unlike some people I read past the sensationalized headlines and discover that what the problem is is not actually the abortion restrictions.
Like I said, find me a single state that prevents a woman from getting care after experiencing a miscarriage or show me the headline you saw and I'll read the article and explain what you're not understanding.
Or at least provide some actual data I can evaluate. You literally just ignored everything I showed you to say "nah, it's a real problem. Haven't you seen any stories?"
That's not an argument. Abortion bans don't kill women. They don't prevent treatment of a miscarriage. The stories you've seen are playing the issues up because they are all abortion activists so it's going to take a little bit of investigating to determine what the truth is.
Again, give me an example of where you think abortion laws prevent treating a miscarriage and I'll explain whatever it is you don't understand.

@rants88 Do you know none of that is even a little bit true?
Miscarriage is not the same thing as an abortion. Even though the procedure is similar or sometimes the same the thing that sets it apart is intent. Abortion is actively and intentionally killing the baby. In a miscarriage the baby is already dead.
I challenge to find a single state that prohibits women from getting treatment for a miscarriage. They are not forced to be close to death because pretty much every single state allows abortion when the mothers life is at risk even though it's not necessary because abortion is not a life saving procedure and not the treatment for a single issue that can be life threatening.
No abortion bans harm miscarriage care because every abortion law distinctly separates miscarriage and abortion so pro-choicers can't try to conflate them like ya'll do anyway.
So I assume this alleviates one of your biggest fears with abortion bans now that you understand it's completely false and no state, regardless of how anti-abortion they are, prevents a woman getting the proper treatment and care for a miscarriage.
And abortion bans do not kill women.
The year before Roe v Wade was passed the CDC started collecting data on abortion mortality and they found that there were 39 deaths from illegal abortions and 24 deaths from legal abortions. This information makes it quite clear that there is not a bunch of women going out and dying from illegal abortions, or even attempting them, like you pro-choicers claim is inevitable and will happen on a large scale if it abortion is illegal.
But here is something interesting to note: The National Abortion Federation has asserted that between 1970 and 1980, legal abortions may have prevented around 1500 pregnancy related deaths in the US. So let's just give them the benefit of the doubt here and assume they are right. During that same time period, 15 million people were killed by abortion. The lives "saved" by abortion account for 0.0001% of the total amount of lives that it took. So if you want to talk about the lives at stake with the legality or illegality of abortion the numbers are incomparable. There is no question that the amount of lives arguably saved by abortion is virtually nonexistent when you compare it to the number of human lives abortion kills.
What this chart shows us is that the maternal mortality rate in childbirth is nearly 0% in most of the developed countries around the world. This shows us pregnancy and childbirth isn't killing women and abortion isn't saving lives.
Tumblr media
The claim that abortion restrictions directly correlate to a higher maternal death rate is unfounded doesn't stand up to scrutiny. If abortion restrictions contribute to higher maternal mortality rates how do you explain Poland? Abortion is almost entirely restricted there (it only has one or two exceptions) and it has one of the lowest maternal mortality rates in the world.
So implying that some states have a high maternal mortality rate because they have strict abortion laws is completely unfounded. Many things can contribute to maternal mortality but so far there is no evidence that directly connects abortion restrictions to those factors. And fyi maternal mortality rates included deaths that happen because of abortions. Abortion isn't safe for the woman either.

@rants88 even though they are enlarged, you can read what they look like and more about how they appear more in detail on the website I linked. A poppy seed is small but it’s not invisible to the naked eye and a whole human body, even one that small, is not going to look like a sliver of egg whites after an abortion. That’s just common sense.
There is a lot of misinformation out there you’re right, which is why you need to be careful about just uncritically accepting posts like the TikTok one. Just because there is misinformation doesn’t mean there is no way to vet the source and determine whether it’s credible or accurate. It’s not an excuse to just believe whatever you see and if you’re uncertain I would not suggest going with TikTok sources. She is obviously lying. Even if others can be incorrect as well it doesn’t excuse her lie. She is intentionally misleading people. If you can’t see the body of the aborted baby that means it’s not in the picture or the video. Even if you don’t know exactly what it would like you can know that you would at least be able to see them.
Again, saying the only ones who know are medical professionals is not true. Whoever is telling you that only doctors know what abortions look like is giving you misinformation. Just because you don’t know yourself does not mean only doctors know. Anyone can know and lots of people do you just have to be willing to research it and do your due diligence. But I do not accept or agree with your statement that only medical professionals know what an abortion looks like. That is objectively wrong. Is the girl who posted the video a medical professional?
It is wrong to think some people are inherently more important than others, which is what you are saying. That kind of thinking always leads to the very worst things in human history.
I believe all people are equal and that no human being comes before another one. Everyone has rights and everyone’s rights need to be considered. I think the living unborn baby and the living woman are equally as important and that we should not kill either of them. Both people have rights. Both people can live.
You (wrongly) believing one person is inherently more important than another is not any sort of argument for killing the person you deem worthless and disposable.

My opinion on the IDF
(Because, yes, despite me being Pro-Israel, I still have ✨thoughts✨)
People need to stop comparing the I/P conflict to the Holocaust. It is nothing like the Holocaust and Israel is nothing like Germany. And you making that comparison really shows how little you actually know about WW2. Read any history book. Read Anne Frank, or Night. In fact, the closest thing to the Holocaust that is happening in this war is what is happening to the Israeli hostages. They are under way more of those conditions. 
No. If we are to ever compare this to any other war, it is more similar to the Vietnam War. 
The IDF is very similar to US soldiers in Vietnam.
Look. We can all agree that US was on the right side of Vietnam. They were helping the Southern Vietnamese from the Northern Vietnamese. So when you hear “They were on the right side/good side” you automatically think they were the good guys. Wonderful heroes. And, yes, Vietnam veterans were heroes. But they did some fucked up shit. 
For example, according to one veteran, one time when one of his friends had been murdered, out of anger, they all burned an entire town down. US soldiers took out a lot of their frustrations and anger onto the Vietnamese. So while we all agree that they are on the right side and are the good guys, they did some fucked up shit. Stuff that cannot be excused at all. 
Another example is in WW2! We all think of the allies as the good guys! They fought against the terrible Nazis and yadada. America was on the good side, they were one of the main sides that took down Germany! So while we acknowledge that America was the right side the be on, we cannot forget the horrible things they did. For example..
They had Japanese concentration camps. 
Bet you didn’t know that. 
The reason for this was because the amount of violence they saw and experienced was involved with Japan. They were traumatized but it is no excuse to do something like that!
America was the right side, but they weren’t the perfect military. 
No military is perfect!!!!!!!!!!!
That includes the IDF. 
But here’s the thing, on the side of the ‘good guys’, usually when there’s extremely violent people in the military, there are usually two reasons for this. 
They have experienced horrors beyond comprehension while fighting on the battlefield, causing them to become jaded and bitter
Or 
2. They were always a violent person and they joined the war to take that out onto others. 
It is the tragic reality that every single military has people like this. It is history. The historical ‘good guys’ did horrible things as well. 
That brings me back to the Vietnam War. 
The soldiers saw so many horrible things that could actually compare very well to what the IDF has seen. 
US soldiers had no way to tell if a citizen was Northern Vietnamese or Southern Vietnamese. 
Usually by the time they learned, it was too late. 
There are stories of US soldiers having a Vietnamese child come up to them, holding something. About to give them a gift! But when they opened their hand, they were holding a grenade. 
That is so similar to what Hamas is doing. They use suicide bombers and child soldiers. Things like that will create an idea of they can’t trust anyone. Anyone could be out to hurt them and there’s the idea of almost animalistic fighting for survival. How can you trust when Hamas could literally send a child out to kill you?!
So, really, if you think about it, the US soldiers of the Vietnam War are very similar to the IDF. 
That sense of they can’t trust anyone, violence due to the trauma and being surrounded by enemies trying to do the same fucking thing (hell, Hamas has been committing terrorist attacks on Israel for years now). Even what the two sides fight for are somewhat similar! 
The US fought to help the Southern Vietnamese and gain freedom from their Northern neighbors. Israel is fighting for freedom from their neighbors who are constantly attacking them and freeing Palestinians from their oppressive government. 
It starts out virtuous and those ideas do carry on for the most part, but it also dissolves into animalistic violence and anger because of the shit they have seen.
Also, the way US Vietnam soldiers were treated in America is actually really similar to how Americans treat the IDF. 
Nowadays when we meet a Vietnam veteran, we comment on how brave they are and how they’re a hero. Back then, though? Ohhhhh boy. Americans hated them. When soldiers would come home, Americans would yell at them, spit on them, etc. Now, doesn’t that sound familiar?
So, TLDR;
I support Israel and I support the IDF in the same way I support America in WW2 and the Vietnam War. They’re on the right side and have virtuous intent, but they sure as hell aren’t perfect and have done some fucked up shit. Yknow. Like every other military in the world. The sad reality we live in. Not everything is black and white.

So no argument for the rape thing. Of course
If you look at my blog and the multiple posts I have about abortion, you can see I've responded to "the rape thing" several times. I do have an argument and I've thoroughly been over it more times than I can count.
Believe it or not you're not the first person to bring it up to me because it's like the only argument you guys have.
But if you can just be a little patient I will respond to your "but what about rape" message. If you can't wait and you want to know my position on "the rape thing" then feel free to check out the several other posts I have answering that question.
