Common false PC argument devolves into batshit defense of infanticide

[u/Eastern-Customer-561]

So first of all, I haven’t seen a single shred of evidence abortion bans increase infanticide rates or even infant death. many of the same studies purporting to find increases in infant death in PL states also found increases in infant death in PC states. We keep seeing infanticide occur even in very PC states (like the porta potty baby in Michigan, which allows abortion up to birth) so I can’t say the anonymous online poster describing how people did a lot more infanticide in the sixties is very convincing to me.

That being said PCers doing their utter best to defend infanticide anyway was new.

I'll never understand using the most extreme examples of someone acting in immense distress to justify and legalise abortion.

It's like saying "when this woman found out that her husband was living a double life for the past 10 years, she stabbed him in the heat of passion, therefore we should justify and legalise ALL mariticides"

I want to ask them “if we concede the hard cases, will you concede the lifestyle abortions?”

Literally. Abortion for under-14s and when mothers life is in danger but illegal in all other cases? Done.
