Is Abortion Murder? | Middle Ground

when none of the pro life people walked up for abortions to be accessible to victims of rape or incest, my jaw dropped to the floor.

When you say “I scientifically believe”…it’s not science it’s a belief.

when i was going through a miscarriage i had to go to a women's clinic, and there were a bunch of prolifers outside yelling and handing out little toy embryo babies trying to get me to "stop," when i wasn't even there for an abortion. i don't think prolifers realize that women's clinics aren't just for abortions, women go there for normal checkups, medicine, breast screenings, menstrual issues and more. even if a woman was going there for an abortion, that's her choice to make. but the last f*cking thing a woman who is miscarrying wants to see is a bunch of people calling her a monster and then trying to hand her tiny toy babies. it's so traumatizing. prolifers don't ever consider the lives of the people they're screaming at and trying to control, and it's almost laughable how much they contradict themselves.

I was a victim of rape too and I would have lost my mind if I had to talk with that girl omg

jubilee really has to understand that we wouldn’t mind watching 75minute videos of these discussions and stop editing so aggressively when the discussions become interesting update (2024) : jubilee has been incorporating 50-70min videos of these middle ground discussions & i'm addicted😭

“As a Christian” should never be in the conversation when it comes to legislation

Should've add "Should women give birth even at the cost of their lives?" as a question.

It's shameful of the anti abortion people to say abortion shouldn't be legalised for rape or incest survivors. Just coz the girl who was raped wanted to keep the child, doesn't mean everyone does. Some people will keep living with that trauma. Ending up with having a kid which will always remind u of that criminal, what if u never love that kid. Imagine the trauma that kid will go through.

Bro I lost my trust in society when they asked "abortion should be accessible for rape and incest survivor" and they said NO

Ain’t no way in hell I’m carrying a child that wasn’t made from consent

The hardest period of my life: I had a miscarriage where I would not stop bleeding. I wanted to go the natural route so I opted for the pill. When I went to pick up my prescription from the pharmacy, the pharmacist would not release my medicine because it was against his beliefs. I had to call the hospital to get in touch with my doctor who had just went on vacation. After two hours of crying, being in pain and sheer embarrassment, my medicine was released. I took the pills and continued to bleed for two months. After two months I was scheduled for D&C abortion. Abortions are now banned in my state. I can't even think of what I would've had to go through if I did not have the option to protect my health by having the proceedure.

I really wanted them to talk about the fostercare system in more depth because it is such a huge part of this conversation.

"That's why I'm pro life because many women are pressured to abort when they don't want to" So pressuring women to abort is bad but pressuring women to give birth when they don't want to is okay? It should go both ways.

If you can’t take a dead person’s organs without prior consent, you can’t force a woman to give birth. Body autonomy is crucial

it’s crazy because so many pro-life people want children in foster care to be able to have families but when it comes down to a person not being able to have an abortion , and not being financially stable to raise a child , that puts ANOTHER child in foster care or ending up on the streets. No child wants to suffer their entire life knowing they weren’t wanted in the first place

Taking away a resource for women ISN’T supporting women.

the guy in the orange shirt being so indecisive is so funny to me because thats totally how i would act if i was apart of one of these videos

Something that bothers me about people who are anti-abortion is when they say 'I know someone who was raped and became pregnant, and they love that child,' as if one woman's experience should or even could speak for all the others'.

I think the issue I have is that everyone is focused on the fetus and not the person this is actually happening too. Why are we focusing on something that hasn’t even entered this world opposed to someone who is currently living in it .If it is not your body it’s is not your choice.
