Food for thought...not going to debate that this has or hasn't anything to do with abortion, but it has been used successfully in some states where a pregnant woman has lost her child during a criminal act caused by another.
Please don't start in that it's only a Republican or religious thing.
Just read and think about it as it gives a different aspect about the unborn. I would hope that no matter what your abortion thoughts may be, you can have some compassion over the loss that the parents in these circumstances have gone through. Yes I said parents. IMHO, the father has rights too when it comes to his child.
It appears that more and more that no one gives a damn about anyone but themselves and/or their own ideas. No one wishes to have a civil conversation and just decide to agree to disagree. Is this what we really want to teach future generations is that you don't need to work things out, that you only need to take what ever action you deem necessary to get your way? It's my way or the highway? Mob rule and/or violence is no way to go which is what we have all seen over the past several years too many times.
Between the misinformation and the play on emotions stating slavery will return, women will be chattel w/o rights, women won't have medical care and et al. When this happens, I believe you start to loose support and validity on any issue you have, not just this one.
Just my reflection.
