No one is forcing anyone to have an abortion. No one will force a woman to abort a fetus conceived by rape any more than forcing her to abort an accidental pregnancy or intentional one. The difference is the stigma: Does the woman want to live with the knowledge that somewhere (either in her own home or in a foster home) the product and reminder of her horrific violation is walking around and is it fair for that child to know and be known as the product of rape? Society is the problem there and given it's difficult to change society and the stigma it bestows, the option for aborting rape fetuses ought to be open. For incest and medical emergencies, obviously there are legitimate medical reasons for an abortion. And again, no one is forcing anyone to have an abortion for any reason. But the way you're screeching at me, it seems you're implying that I'm calling for mandatory abortions for everyone. Granted, the world would be a better place with fewer and fewer Humans, but that would kind of render this whole discussion rather moot. ;)
