Would someone PLEASE check and see if Hell froze over because The New York Times put out an opinion piece we actually agree with … on abortion:
Perfect summary of how the abortion industry marginalizes women & ignores the underlying issues that drive abortionhttps://t.co/SCoPQ4BEOS

From The New York Times:
Activists see a lot of appeal in this argument, a way to bridge the gap between liberal women and economic populists. But it comes with enormous baggage.
Above all, it’s a profoundly dehumanizing argument. It reduces mothers and their children to mere economic objects, and amounts to saying we are justified in killing those who impede our economic progress. Parenting presents undeniable challenges, but no one argues that those challenges give parents the right to kill their children.
SO MUCH BOOM.
And of course, with that much boom, the pro-aborts, feminists and SJWs came out of the woodwork totally FREAKED OUT about the piece … especially Jill Filipovic who wrote a whole DIATRIBE on her timeline:
For most women I know who have had abortions, even perfect economic prospects wouldn't have meant having a baby. https://t.co/RTBV39c1x6

Here we go.
Yes, abortion is an economic issue: Women who seek abortions and can't get them find themselves worse off economically.
— Jill Filipovic (@JillFilipovic) May 9, 2017
You mean it costs money to raise children? No kidding.
It's also an issue of women's safety. Women refused abortions are more likely to be stuck in abusive relationships than women who terminate.

Because women are TOTALLY weak and victims of their circumstances and situations.
It's beyond me how humans survived for centuries without government programs. https://t.co/SknQ0vc4W6

How any true feminist can buy this crap is beyond us … seriously?
But for many of us, it's a fundamental question of freedom, independence & building the lives we want. It's not gnawing off our own leg(!).
— Jill Filipovic (@JillFilipovic) May 9, 2017
But for many of them it’s ignoring their own responsibilities and not being accountable for the choices they make.
Fixed it for her.
And having a baby is akin to being chained up and having to gnaw a leg off to escape?
@JillFilipovic I find this op-ed eerily anti-choice. "Killing children"? This writer sounds like she works at a bait and switch clinic.
— Casey Cipriani (@CaseyCip) May 9, 2017
Eerily anti-choice. If we rolled our eyes any harder we’d have to go to the ER and have them checked.
These people.
And yes, abortion kills children. What part of that confused her?
@JillFilipovic The bottom line on abortion is this: Even *if* a fetus is considered a full "person", you cannot be be forced by law to keep another 1/

If a fetus is a person … you cannot be forced to keep another person alive.
What do they think a fetus is? A bag of hammers?
@JillFilipovic person alive. You can't be forced to donate a kidney for eample, even if it wld save another's life, even your own *born* child's life. 2/x
— Sharon M (@ssminore) May 9, 2017
*sigh*
The fact they think wanting to preserve life is a forced action says so much about them and their gross movement.
