For those who think abortion is wrong, where do they draw the line?

32. Most don't

Donald Trump found this out when asked during the campaign. He said of course, if abortion were illegal, women procuring them would face some punishment. But in the Republican anti-choice world, this was a faux pas. He got pushback from his own party, and had to modify his position. They do not want to punish the women who get abortions, because they view them as victims. They want to punish the "abortionist" doctors.

And this exposes the whole "abortion is murder" argument as complete and total bullshit. For if abortion is murder, then a woman seeking an abortion is no different than a woman seeking a hitman to kill her husband. By their proposed policies, clearly they do not view abortion as murder. They view it as a vice, like society at large views heroin use. We do punish heroin users, but we punish the dealers and traffickers much more severely, because we view them as victimizing the users and society at large.

Abortion, to them, is not murder. It's a last resort form of birth control that they do not want to be available, except for the rich who can have it done quietly. Once they prohibit abortion, they will seek to demonize other forms of birth control. Their goal is to prohibit most birth control, as it was in the olden days. That way, sex will more often carry the consequence of unwanted pregnancy carried to term, which is the goal.
