29. I Am Furious With Everyone Who Voted For The Ban
but Biden in particular, because he has promoted himself as a pro-woman, pro-choice Senator.

So, you agree with the ban. Since you aren't a woman, and you'd never have to personally deal with making this decision, I guess it's easy for you to tell other people that their doctor's medical advice is wrong. Are you a doctor? If so, do you practice obstetrics? If not, what is the informed basis on which you have formed this opinion?

The decision to terminate a pregnancy, and the procedure by which it is done should only be made by a woman, her doctor, and her partner, provided he's willing to participate in the decision and he is not forcing the woman to abide by his sole decision.

The government has no business dictating this kind of private decision. It is painful enough for the women to make without some holier-than-thou ignorant-of-the-facts Senator, or any other outside person, putting his own political interest before her own life interest.
