How many pro life people here think 6 weeks is “too harsh”?

Also care to link any prominent groups of the pro life movement saying so?


The absolute only controversy I know of as being “harsh” is rape/incest.


I’m just concerned about gaslighting from the left has started to set in.

I am not really pro-life or pro-choice, its not an issue I care that deeply about, so I guess I'm not the target audience.

I think 15 weeks is about right, 6 is a little harsh.

HOWEVER: It is up to the voting public of that State to decide what is right for them, to a certain degree. I think anything after the 2nd trimester should never be up to anyone and should be a nationwide ban outside of extreme exigent circumstances.

If you think 6 weeks is too harsh you’re not pro life.

6 weeks too long. It is not the right of man or society to control God's creation.

If you're wearing condoms or on birth control or have a vasectomy, you may as well have an abortion in the eyes of the church as it's all sinful.

Remember the Florida law also has exceptions for Rape and Incest and Life of the Mother was never on the table as an issue, the Mother's Life always comes first.

The real problem for Trump here is he is absolutely going to alienate a lot of GOP voters on this but I don't know who he actually gains. Folks that are in the "I would rather it was 15 weeks instead of 6 weeks" or similar think of abortion as a secondary issue. You have some folks that get squeamish about banning all abortion or the exceptions but not many people get worked up on 6 vs 15.

At the same time there is absolutely a solid group of folks who want all abortion banned and if you include exceptions that's a significant block. They are virtually all Republicans and for many it is a Primary issue above any others. Trump just threw those votes away unless he can come up with a way to fix this, even so some serious damage was done here and he just gave Desantis the high ground on abortion in the GOP Primary.

I don't care so much about "harsh". But 6-weeks makes no sense.

It is a reasonable expectation the baby will continue developing and be delivered.....

What reasonable explanation exist do disrupt the process by murdering an innocent baby?

How are we supposed to know our deeply held convictions on when abortion is ok? Trump hasn't told us what we believe yet.

If it's a life at conception then 6 weeks is still murder.

I'm against abortion in all cases, period.

However, I recognize that I'm in a group of about 10% of the US population, at large, and even among a pretty small minority amongst people who describe themselves as "pro-life."

I’ve heard the heartbeat of a baby at 6 weeks. A baby is a baby even at 6 weeks. Either you recognize the person, or you don’t. No need for 1st trimester vs. 2nd trimester vs. 3rd trimester.

Or the health of the mother. That would be the only reason to have an abortion. If whores don’t want to get pregnant, just close your legs

I used to be pro life, but now I think abortion should be legal up to 80 years after birth.

Wait, how old is Biden now? OK maybe 85 years after birth.

The only abortions should be in cases of rape/incest,nonviable pregnancies,severe genetic defects, or if the life of the mother is threatened. But, using it as general birth control? No...way too many contraceptives available to justify the procedure there.
