I am a republican. It’s because they’re stupid.
It’s obvious the majority want access to abortion. It’s their job to make sure the people get what they want.
I’m pro choice. I feel most the arguments against abortion are religious in nature. As such it’s a false argument. Not everyone shares your religion.

Cue the religious person who will astroturf and say, “Well I’m an atheist and I think abortion is wrong because scientifically it’s a human life and should have the same rights as other human life.”
Bullshit, they had their position already and invented a road to it. They got there because of their literal interpretation of the poetic, “Surely I was sinful from birth, sinful from the time my mother conceived me” and others, and also a misunderstanding of the story of Onan (which also explains their misplaced hatred of masturbation).

Believe it or not, there actually are some of us that don’t believe in god and think abortion is wrong. Actually, I hate religious arguments against abortion, they muddy the water and aren’t necessary.

I’ll admit I support some restrictions. Otherwise it’ll never pass. I just don’t think your “generic your” religion should be forced on me. Roe vs wade was bad law and looking to be overturned. I get that. I’m most disappointed in congress not acting and how quickly the republicans went nuts on abortion.
Polls and just talking to people show people want access to abortion. Kansas which is very red even said they want access to abortion.
While I want republicans to win. I won’t vote republican until they change their stance. I find their stance extreme and I am not an extreme person. I strongly believe it’s your body and your choice.
