Fathers can sue women that murder their child. This is a matter of perspective of course, either pro-life or not. And in the instance of abortion the victim is the child.

This, and to expand to our resident lefties who are feigning outrage....

If abortion is wrong because of the killing of a foetus provided you see right to life stuff in that way. It doesn't suddenly become right if it was conceieved due to force.

I don't understand the left.

On the one hand they demand political correctness for unfathomable reasons but on the other are happy for a child's conception to have different values depending on how it was conceived.

So are you politically correct or not? You can't mix and match when it comes to law and governing of the masses. Or you can, but then your stance on being politically correct will never be respected by anyone except your mobile echo chamber passenger buddies. Because you will break whenever it suits you and apply the rule of law from your own perspective and never take opposing views into account.

I guess you don't understand the left, since the point of view you seem to attribute to them is so far off the mark it's rather unbelievable.

People on the left who are pro-choice tend to think that what happens to the fetus should be left to the mother, regardless of the situation.  If it is indeed a matter of perspective, then the most important perspective is that of the woman with the baby in her body.  They don't believe that a woman should only be able to choose in cases of rape or incest or whatever else.

Ideally it would be a woman's choice in pretty much any circumstance.  In situations where there is a republican controlled government that is determined to do anything they can to stop abortions, then they at the very least want to have an exception made for the most extreme cases where the childbirth is likely to be most physically or mentally damaging to the mother.  It's not about valueing life differently, it's about trying to do the best possible in a bad situation.

How you managed to turn this into an issue of political correctness is a truly impressive display of mental gymnastics.
