Abortion is indeed 'medical care'
Nope. No matter how many times you say it, it isn't.
And in order to prevent women from having legal abortions, you are willing to deny medical service to them by Planned Parenthood.
Nope. I am not trying to deny medical service to women. I am trying to deny abortions.
All PP has to do is stop performing abortions, and no one will have a problem with them.
They don't even do mammograms.
So you literally are for throwing the baby out with the bath water.
You are willing to put women's health in danger in order to deny them safe and legal abortions.
Abortion is indeed 'medical care'- child birth is dangerous for a woman- more dangerous than an abortion
