      What does “once it’s born” have to do with this conversation? And why are you dodging my question:

      If you can end the pregnancy without killing the fetus, but you kill the fetus, should that be illegal?

      Do you know how loudly dodging this question speaks? You’re basically admitting it.

        I think you’re not thinking through the complications of the question. If you had to kill the fetus to save the life of the mother rather than allow it to be born, should that be legal? If the fetus is discovered to have a fatal flaw that will allow it to live only a few days in severe agony if it isn’t put out of its misery immediately, should that be legal?

        Or should we allow all pregnancies that are viable in terms of a successful birth happen that way regardless of circumstance?

          So what you’re saying is that it depends? Yeah, I agree. And we both therefore disagree “States Shouldn’t Be Able To Put Any Limits On Abortion”. We also therefore agree it’s fine for the government to have some control over your body.

          What is you think we disagree on, and why?

            Where did I say I disagreed with that? Are you putting words in my mouth? Otherwise, please quote me.

                Ah, so you are putting words in my mouth. If you wish to have a discussion with someone you imagine you’re talking to, I will be happy to leave you two to it.

                  How is asking you what you think putting words in your mouth? If there’s some point you want to make, just make it. If there’s some point you have made you think I have wrong, just clarify it.

                    You didn’t ask me what I thought. You declared that we both disagreed with something. Please, again, quote me. Because otherwise, it’s a lie.
