so, if your sister or daughter, girlfriend, etc, was raped and that 2% chance of pregnancy materialized, you'd just think, well,shucks. But a life is a life?

One concession, and they are no-longer TRULY "pro-Life."

It's the "best argument" because it's the truth.

Making someone who was raped carry a baby is effectively saying “some women will be forced to have babies against their will and I am ok with that”
