If a 1 year old got pregnant, I think you should be more concerned about arresting whoever TF impregnated a 1 year old, rather than whether it's a crime for the 1 year old to have an abortion.
Do these people even remotely understand that the younger a pregnant person is, actually makes an abortion more necessary? Beyond the health demands of pregnancy and childbirth on a young person, do they really want 10 and 12 year olds, or even younger, being mothers? (Don't bother answering; I can guess.)
Yes. Don't forget we have had congressmen say that a 10 year old rape victim not only should have been forced to give birth, but to raise the rapist's child too so she can understand the "blessing" she received. I believe it was a West Virginia congressman that classified 12 year olds being married as "just a way of life", while another said something along the lines of "i know people who got married at 12. They're still married."
So yes, they have gone on record saying exactly that.
I'd forgotten that quote. 🤮
