The young Americans fighting to ban abortion

- Since the US supreme court's overturning of Roe v Wade, 16 states have enacted stringent bans on nearly all abortions. But that is not enough for a new generation of organised and passionate activists intent on pushing even stricter laws across the country. Carter Sherman spends time with students and organisers at the annual March for Life in Washington DC and meets the influential woman spearheading the national movement

"I don't think Christians should impose their beliefs on others, That's why we need Christian laws." Even if I agreed with this nonsense, that thinking makes no sense.
"Christian individuals should HAVE to impose their beliefs on others. That's what the government is for. They should do it for us."
It does make sense, for an authoritarian.
@@ems4884 The Government imposes beliefs onto others. It's actually the one and only thing the Government does. Name a Government policy and I will show you how it can be framed in view of "a belief, imposed onto someone".
I'm Christian and I disagree with that whole thing they said. Christian laws are already in place. We don't need laws saying "you can't divorce" "your head isn't covered" "watching corn? Jail" "unmarried and pregnant? We'll take the child" which that last part DID happen a lot. Many of our grandparents or great grandparents were adopted out and have NO idea where to find their biology family because there was no record or it was sealed and they can't get it.
It's a human value not just a Christian value.
Thou shall not steal.
Few things as gross as telling someone with a life threatening illness that the solution isnt medical intervention, its ~ to pray ~
The states that have no abortion laws do have clauses that say it’s ok in situations of rape, incest, and threat to the mother’s life. It’s never as bad as you think. People just don’t want others to be irresponsible with procreation. I kind of a serious thing too many take it so lightly.

@@raven4442 which incident are you referring to.
I know it's an old argument, but the guy at the start says he wants to 'fight for the defenceless' so I'd ask if he will continue to fight for these fetuses once they become children, to make sure they don't live in poverty, get health care - you know all this but just needed to say it once again.
People can fight for the “defenseless” all they want….but they aren’t going to use my organs to do so.

@@Skeletron1000 If you impose legislation that would legally _force_ my pregnant sister to remain pregnant and give birth against her will, what are you, _personally,_ Skeleton, going to ensure that my sister is safe and that her unwanted child are healthy and taken care of?
In the very least, certainly a portion of your tax dollars should go to help pay for the hospital bills and childcare for the children you're _forcing_ pregnant individuals to give birth to against you will?
Or do you not really care about the well-being of children _after_ birth?
The answer to your question is yes.
It's kind of terrifying when faced with the realities of the situation their response is, "just pray about it." If the mother and/or fetus ends up passing away, then it was a god's plan for that to happen. If the fetus manages to live but has life long complications, it was god's plan for that to happen. If the fetus survives but the mother dies, it was god's plan for that to happen. Meanwhile, apparently if the mother had alternative plans they are irrelevant.
I don't know ANYONE who's response is "just pray about it" and I've been involved in the pro-life movement for 2 decades. You're just straight up wrong, my guy.

Since Roe vs. Wade.
@@664theneighbor5 If you are against aborting babies, how many un-aborted babies have you adopted ? Let me tell you, ZERO ! America has always been feral because it is the homeplace of shallow moralists. If you want to stop people from doing abortions (on a non-sentient underdeveloped fetuses), then you should take care of the baby.
It's wild to me how few Americans have their facts straight about their founding fathers. They were progressive thinkers (for the time - I know, I know) who were didn't believe that religion had a place in government
"Progressive" in that context has no relation to what it means today, given they were yt supremacists fighting against the british

@@pitchblackawesomedoesn’t mean they’re wrong.
The right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness is based on religious morals. It’s not just religion, but also the US constitution which should protect the life of both a mother and a child.
the people who said that *praying* is gonna save those women's lives should never go to the hospital ever again, because with that logic they can cure themselves by praying.
Honestly, abortion to save the mother's life should be legal since it's either both the baby and the mother die or the baby dies and the mother doesn't. This is coming from someone who opposes abortion in most cases.
@@givemeurmoney1244In the hospital in most cases when such thing happens what tends to happen is that they try to save both lives is not one or the other it's very few such cases where one life needs to be saved. As a Christian all life matters and I'm against abortion.
Just beware every argument in this video is cherry picked to only show the worst arguments and they show zero of the rational arguments. They are hoping you'll watch this and view all pro-lifers as the silly people they've cherry picked in this video.
@@givemeurmoney1244 As a prolife medical student, the remedy for "life of the mother" cases does not require an abortion. Most people don't understand what types of cases people are talking about when they say "life of the mother". They are essentially presented with a trolley problem that is removed from the reality of the situation. People usually mean ectopic pregnancy, but you don't need to perform an abortion to treat an ectopic pregnancy.
Yes
How about these people put as much effort into laws and efforts to reduce the occurrence of rapes and acts where the unwanted pregnancy was created through violence?
Ah yes, and what percentage of abortions happen secondary to those circumstances you bring up? You realize it's less than 1% right? So how about you stop trying to base your entire argument on the miniscule and let's talk about the 99% that are convenience abortions.
@@carlosdominguez3108😬
I doubt that violence against women is a top concern for most of these guys.
There are already laws against rapes, Claussen
How about addressing the matter under discussion rather than engaging in whataboutery?
they really should fight to take care of all abandoned kids. instead of forcing their ideas on others.
I have a feeling they may strongly disagree with increased funding for social services that may help new moms and abandoned kids. They want a fetus to live but a kid can get shot up in school or live in poverty
They already do that.
You do realize some of us pro life people were adopted as children right?
@@dadaistaingegniere Evidence?
It's the Forced Birth Movement, not the Pro Life Movement.
So...if politically the country doesn't abide by your beliefs, political rallies, and marches, (actual physical and social actions) are necessary ways to change things. But if a woman is caught in a life-or-death situation...prayer's enough. Why is prayer (a supernatural action) selectively effective?
You're asking people with imaginary friends to argue from a place of reason.
When did anybody say that?
@@RyanRuark *fedora tipping intensifies *
The hypocrisy of pro abortionist unhinged me. you are using example of life threatening pregnancy to justify abortion that does not involve life threatening pregnancy. if what pro abortionist wants is to allow abortion any time in the pregnancy regardless if their is any medical reason then why use the life threatening case if you don't need it to justify abortion anyway? HYPOCRISY
You're throwing around red herrings to not discuss the 99% of abortions. Even pro-life advocates say medical intervention is allowed in a life-threatening situation.
I had an abortion at 18. I remember getting screamed at by pro-lifers as I walked into the clinic. It was awful. I didn't make my decision lightly.
I've always gotten the feeling that pro-lifers think that women are just thrilled to get an abortion, “Yes, an unplanned pregnancy! Can't wait to for my abortion.”
Pro-lifers are so obsessed with the fetus/embryo, that they- perhaps willingly- forget that there's a woman at the centre of this. A woman with responsibilities, dignity, and humanity.
If any pro-lifers want to have a cordial discussion, I’m happy to have it, but if you're just gonna call me a “murderer”, don't waste my time. I've heard if before.
Beautifully said.
Thanks for saving a child from this world.
Im really sorry about what happened to you, really I am. I hope youre in a better place now. I hate to hear about prolifers hurting women who are going to get an abortion. I dont believe that abortion is right and I believe it should be banned, I think we need better solutions for women who are in situations that make abortion look like the only choice. I have to say, that im glad prolifers are obsessed the little ones in question (fetus is latin for "little one") but of course we should be mindful of the mother. However the mother has a voice, and the child in her does not.
This looks like an American thing to me. This doesn't happen in my country (Canada). It doesn't happen in other Western countries, either, as far as I'm aware. It's a little bit suspicious that it's only illegal in the U.S., don't you think? 🤔
This seems to be more about control to me than "saving babies". Same vibe as all of these C-19 lockdowns.
@@theweepingwillow229That's because fetuses aren't sentient or fully formed. That's why they don't have a voice. Pro-lifers are doing the exact same thing that they're accusing women who choose to end a pregnancy are doing - speaking on behalf of a fetus.
How many of these people have ever had an extended conversation with someone who has terminated a pregnancy?

I bet none did. Or if they did, they only listened to those who didn't want to do it and had to. Nowadays, people just like to feel that their belief is right so they only focus on their view being validated..

Also the founding fathers were deeply anticlerical and set up a strong separation with state and religion
... and when Europeans were fleeing religious persecution!
The indigenous were not one people. We in a racist view see native Americans as one group. They saw each other as very different and fought wars, killed entire villages and conquered land just as every other human civilization has. They aren’t fairy tales. They are not innocent.
This country wasn’t created by the Native Americans. It was created by Anglo-American settlers.

@@loganleroy8622 the one where an ectopic pregnancy or other life threatening condition can be fixed by terminating the pregnancy. Unfortunately that's now criminalized in a few states.
@@shionyr As a prolife medical student there is more than one treatment for ectopic pregnancy. Abortion does not need to be included in that list. People in the pro choice movement say that to scare people because they know the general populace is afraid of something like that happening. 2% of women will experience an ectopic pregnancy at some point in their life, so odds are you know someone personally that has experienced one. They just say that to scare people.
So that’s not a valid reason to have an abortion either. The standard treatment option among prolife physicians is a unilateral salpingectomy.
Some people are also misinformed because any pregnancy that ends before 20 weeks for any reason is also termed an abortion of the pregnancy. That can be a spontaneous abortion, also called a miscarriage.
@@loganleroy8622 Hold up miscarriages aren't caused by the mother or doctors, right? Like I thought what made something a miscarriage are when the baby dies in spite of their best efforts?
@@samstromberg5593 Correct, but the medical term for a miscarriage that happens before 20 weeks is called a "spontaneous abortion". The developing fetus just stops growing on it's own.
So some pro-abortion advocates try to scare people by saying that if a prolife advocate wants to end abortions, then they're also going to throw a woman in jail if she has a miscarriage, because a miscarriage is also technically an abortion, in the medical sense. Just not an abortion is the sense that people mean when they say abortion.
I don’t see many minorities in bad areas harassing us in the streets like this about abortion…
That’s telling.
For America the demographics of pro- and anti-choice are similar. Gallup polling in 2023 found for Non-Hispanic Whites 51% pro-choice, 46% anti-choice, 4% undecided, and for People of color that was 54% pro-choice, 40% anti-choice, 6% undecided.

There's no such thing as a high-risk pregnancy where you need an abortion in order to "don't die". Ask any OB/GYN or any of the numerous abortionists who have stated this publicly.

They don’t wanna terminate the pregnancy but they don’t wanna do anything for raising the unwanted child. Kind of sad. These women don’t have health insurance so they can’t pay for prenatal care they can’t pay for delivery care they can’t pay to raise their child hypocrisy of these individuals is astounding 1:31
They donate 220% more to charity than pro-choicers. They adopt so many babies that in 2013 they created what CNN reported on as an "Orphan Shortage Crisis". They have 2700 PRCs giving free medical care, diapers, baby clothes, and more to hundreds of thousands of women in need.
That's about the size of it.
lol replies getting deleted in real time
Crisis pregnancy centers offer free prenatal care. On top of that for every child put up for adoption there are 30 families wanting to adopt. So I don't know what you mean when you say that prolifers don't want to do anything to help raise an unwanted child. Also in what world is it better for a child to be killed than raised in poverty?
false, nearly all of these people (like myself) support non-profits that aid women and babies. Door of Hope, Pregnancy Care Centers, etc. Curious what non-profits your support with time and money?

@@billwoods7578 But he started his comment with "nope" 😅🤣
The understanding is backward. Separation of church and state was intended to protect religion from the state, not the other way around.
I want to know if they will have the same response/reaction if their life or a loved one's life was at risk and needed an abortion.
The Church has always considered the case of non voluntarily abort on danger to the mother's life as in nature the mother's survival is the best choice because the child couldn't survive without her, and she has higher probability to survive to a surgeon and to give birth again, so is to the surgeon to decide, asking the mother.
Procuring a voluntary abortion is murdered.
A man wrote this.
cope more, majority of abortions occur due to lifestyle factors, not because the pregnant mother's life in question is in danger.
Do not even talk about life saving abortions if you first don't agree that voluntary abortions for girls who spread their legs too much are bad.

@@mnmmnm925 You're missing the plot. If there is no access to abortion then the irresponsible will think twice before f@cking without contraception. The reason abortions are so high in the countries you mentioned IS PRECISELY because there is a plan B.

It is her right to decide what to do with her own body. And saying that abolishing abortion is giving freedom to people simply doesn’t make sense, you’re diminishing their freedom.

Do people change their opinions when presented with counter arguments? Do people ever change their opinions and what causes it to happen?
Rarely
Yes. Most of my life I was pro-choice. It was only a few years ago that my opinion was changed on the topic. I was also an atheist for almost my entire life. That also changed in the last few years, and actually changed after my opinion changed on abortion. I was also a socialist for some years in young adulthood, and then was a somewhat left-leaning libertarian for almost a decade, followed by a short stint as a more right-leaning libertarian before becoming an Orthodox Christian and being disillusioned with politics in general. I don't think that there's necessarily an outside force that can "cause it to happen." It's much more internal than that. I think almost everyone is driven by feeling rather than by accepting solid arguments, and that really even goes for a lot of people who think they hold their beliefs because they've accepted what they think are solid arguments, but are rather arguments that rely on faulty premises that they grant due to some gut feeling they have on that premise.
Yes, that's how I became staunchly pro life from pro choice. I simply looked at all of the facts. Much of my pro choice time was rooted in the many issues they advocate for: it's my body. It's better for me financially. The world is a scary place. R*pe as well.
My view changed when I found out a close friend of mine was born of r*pe. How on earth can I be okay with the idea that she didn't have the right to exist just because of the circumstances of her conception? How can I say her life was worth less than mine? For any reason too. Born into a poorer family. That's not the end of the world. People have overcome much more with way less. The world is scary too. But it can be a beautiful place as well. It's not for me to decide who lives and dies.

For every abortion they stop they should be made to adopt or pay to care for that child OR pay because that woman is suffering bad mental health or is unalive do to her legally not being able to get one and then was bleeding out ( for example)❗
Also all these peopeo are of one shade of people and could be very well off. ❗
I promise you. No amount of government support is gonna give a kid a father or their mother back. Kids are not always a blessing in some situations. They could be born very sick and suffer.
A woman said she would not abort a couple's child as a surrogate because she vould feel them kick. She even asked for more money when they offered to pay 5k-10k. She left the state. Gave birth. Dumped the poor kid with someone who was blind, deaf, couldnt speak, smile, or react to any stimulus. They child lived until 8. Literally a vegetable.
A mom wanted her kid born even though he had NO brain or little to NO brain!!!! Like maybe 1-9 percent. He did nothing for almost 2 years.
Pro life doesnt care about those here other wise they would take prisoners off death row, kids would have nutritional foods to eat, single parents would be HEAVILY supported and not wait up to 5 years to have a housing, a choice of any daycare of theie choice paid for, education for rhe child is paid for as well as her cause they "care about moms" and MORE ❗❗❗
One must wonder..if there were no such things as adoption or foster care,and the only 2 choices were:a)have an abortion, or b)keep the kid..would the anti abortion people change their tune about abortion then?or,would they just force a woman or girl to keep a kid that she doesn't want and/or can't afford to raise!?

The founding father made sure this was not a Christian nation,pure ignorance behind that statement.
The founding fathers were absolutely Christian. John Adams said, "Our constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." They intended for religion to be practiced at a state level, that why they only wrote "Congress shall not establish a religion."
When you know nothing about the US, you think it's a Christian nation. When you know a little about the US, you think it's a secular nation. But when you learn a lot about the US, you come back around to realizing it actually was a Christian nation all along.

It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.” Morality and
virtue are the foundation of our republic and necessary for a society to
be free.
"When there is socitial injustice you cant care what people think, so long as you fight for the right cause"
Genuinely a terrifying logic in my opinion.... I just find all these people's logic baffling, who are these people to say what people can do in a supposedly free country. They dont have to have an abortion but why should they deny others?
It’s not so baffling if you look at it from their perspective: if pro-life people are right about what abortion is (the unjust killing of a living human who deserves human rights), then it makes sense that they would fight so hard against it.
If you thought people were killing tiny humans, even if you weren’t a parent, you would want to go stop those people too.
It’s a pretty noble thing to want to stop an injustice even when it doesn’t directly affect you.
That logic is what has progressed every single social justice issue into being solved or resolved. Look at the civil rights movement, or slavery, or women voting. Every civil rights battle had that logic at its core. The logic isn’t flawed you just think the cause they’re fighting for is.
I understand their logic and I think the young people are trying to do the right thing, but have been manipulated into these views. They stop caring once a baby is born and are not passionate about actually helping people who are alive and facing hardships (unless they happen to also belong to their organization). This is why it should be called the Forced Birth movement instead of the Pro Life movement.
Because these people sincerely believe that abortion is infanticide. You don't have to agree with their viewpoint, but I don't see how you can't at least grasp their argument. In the pro life view, aborting babies is no different than the practice of killing infants and toddlers, directly (like the Phoenicians did as sacrifice) or indirectly (like the Spartans and Romans did to burdensome or lame infants).
what happen to the child in abortion? Some countries commit genocide so why not let all commit genocide ?
I'm LGBT, and sometimes, when I see Republicans and successful straight people so happy, I think, am I doing it wrong? What if they are right and their way of life is the best, all of us have strayed, and unconsciously, we're fighting for the right to live lives that are unhappy in the long run. Ugh, but I don't want to marry or have kids ughhh
With no disrespect to you but I think the conservatives in this country really are trying to lead people and society as a whole to just live more fulfilling and happier lives. I just don't see how a lifestyle with no kids, a loving marriage and family can ever lead to happiness.

The role of government is to protect the vulnerable. Abortion is so controversial because there's two vulnerable populations: the unborn and their mother.
Both sides try to downplay the other, but really a college mom is just as vulnerable as the baby she carries.

As a pro choice person what I am taking from this is that we on the left maybe need to rethink our “the younger generation is overwhelmingly progressive “ narrative. We have been making this assumption and while it is has validity we cannot ignore that there is a conservative undertow.

@@opinionbrewing7468 those things are not human, not any more than any other seed.
True. The religious, patriarchal indoctrination is strong. Plus, there are cycles. Every time some progress is fought for and made, there is a backlash, and some of the progress is reversed.
I'm sure the unborn plumps of cells that lack any ability for conscious thought are really thankful for their efforts.
You don't actually know at what point the fetus develops consciousness and the ability to feel pain so there is a non-zero chance of hurting a feeling being, and even if the fetus isn't conscious during the very early stages of pregnancy, you're still artificially ending the natural process, which, if it were simply allowed to take place, would result in the birth of a thinking and feeling human being. Any way you look at it, it seems a bad act.
I wonder when exactly did you turn from a clump of cells into a conscious being??? Is there before or after for you?
You're describing an infant. Humans don't magically receive consciousness or self-awareness when they are born, it takes months after birth for that to begin to develop. If lack of consciousness/intellect is what justifies abortion, we should expand the aborting period to a few months after the child is born.
The born plump of cells that comes out after birth and lacks a substantive consciousness or awareness wouldn't appreciate anyone's efforts for it, either.
@@obligatoryusername7239 Sure. But at least it wouldn't appreciate being terminated, as opposed to the plump of cells.
Everyone is pro choice. When you choose to take care of your own children but not other children, that’s pro choice. When you choose which child to adopt, that’s pro choice. If the government mandated every open pro life individual or organisation to contribute significantly to raising abandoned children, they’d drop the pro life label in a minute.
There's no need. Babies given in adoption are very few compared with foster fathers that wait for it.
You're using the word choice here in several different contexts, and each circumstance you mentioned carries with it a different set of moral concerns - and they're not relevant to the issue of ab0rti0n, who's sole focus is on the fact that the act involves the killing of a living being. That's the unavoidable crux of the issue - anything else is whataboutism.
There are tons and tons of children in foster care and many more kids waiting to be adopted.I would like to think and hope that those already BORN children need parents more than an unborn fetus!?
No, because "prochoice" refers specifically to whether woman can have their unborn child killed or not. This is a really silly argument you're making.

When there are some situations where there is a 0% chance of the babies survival and all it is doing is threatening the mother’s life, and the mother can’t legally get an abortion. That is no longer pro-life. All that is doing is making the death of the mother more likely.
As a prolife medical student, that is not the prolife position of the people that are closely involved with trying to create policies, recommendations, and procedures for medical practitioners. Just like with any hot button political issue, there are people on both sides that have not thought about these ideas well enough or solutions to resolving various edge cases. I'm curious what you mean by 0% chance of the baby's survival. Do you mean they only live for 5 years after birth? 2 years? 4 months? Do you mean there is no longer any growth of the child in the fetal state? Do you mean in the case of an ectopic pregnancy? At what point in the pregnancy? Past the point of viability? These are all different indications that one should consider. At the heart of it, the point is to try not to harm the child. If the child still doesn't make it while trying to care for the mother, then it's a tragedy, but it's acceptable. It's all about your intentions.
A man fighting for a choice he will never have to make is ridiculous
its still the man and womans child though
i am pro choice but the kid is sort of half his so it is not that ridiculous. funny that everyone is white though
Excuse you pal, but that's our future child.
To say that I (the father) has no say in the life of my child) is asinine.
Why would you even marry a women that wouldn't agree to carry your child after pregnancy? That's a low level woman if you ask me.
People need to stop playing the (threat to the mother's life card). Very few abortions are actually medically necessary. I and my wife had two ectopic pregnancies which were obviously of medical necessity to remove.
@@vladimirofsvalbard9477
Married people have accidental pregnancies too. You can't force a woman to have a child. It's her choice. What are you going to do lock up a woman till she give's birth? My sister's dr said she had a 50/50 chance survival of her last pregancy. She had 3 young children. So between you and I we know 2 people who had MEDICAL reason for an abortion. It happen more than you know. And did YOU carry the child and your body change? No your wife did. No uterus? No choice
He is fighting for taking away women’s choices.
These young women haven't faced a terrifying medical emergency yet. They may change their tune. Ultimately this question should rest with the individual. Each woman may choose. I would not agree with late term elective abortion (not medically indicated), because she had enough time to think about it. If the pregnancy is quite advanced, the fetus could survive.
So you base your ideas of who should live or die based on technology? Now days a 22 week old child can survive out side but a few years ago only 30 weeks and above. And in the future maybe a 15 week old would survive out side. But according to you they aren't humans to who deserve not to be killed until technology catches up
I dunno...its a tricky one. Under certain cirumstances, i would want my future daughter to have a choice
It's not tricky at all. Let people make their own decisions. They know their own situations best.

Praying doesn’t heal wounds medicine does‼️✔️💯
This is misrepresenting the pro-life community. The majority would agree that if the mother was in a life or death situation, then we have the moral responsibility to try out best to save both. That would include considering a premature birth if possible. Immediately jumping to abortion for the means of convenience is what most people fight against.
Guardian would never publish that. They will even refuse to acknowledge that many pro-lifers use a different definition of abortion as they.
A really interesting debate for me as I cannot for the life of me see why it shouldn't be used as a means of convenience
You do realize some people are not mentally, financially and physically right to have children right? You anti choicers see things in the most ridiculous way because you don't try to understand the other side of the equation. There's a reason a lot of people end up mistreating or killing their children. They weren't mature and ready for that important part of life. You might say to yourself "I wasn't ready but I adapted", but that doesn't mean everyone thinks and matures like you do.

The treatment is antibiotics for the mother and monitoring of the baby with potential use of Corticosteroids for fetal lung maturity >23 to 24 weeks of pregnancy and possibly delivery but that is generally recommended against.
Prenatal maternal sepsis is not "teated" with abortion. If the baby tragically dies due to a septic infection, then either delivery is induced or a D&C procedure is used to remove the child's remains before it can cause medical harm to the mother. Removal of an already dead child is NOT an abortion, even if the same procedure is used.

The abortion issue isn’t a religious question, as much as people like to spin it that way. The only thing that matters to its legality in a free country like our own are what facts can be established through science and philosophy about the procedure. It just so happens that the pro-life position is the only one consistent with those things, which is why there are atheistic pro-lifers.
their reproduction? their child, A baby can be cut into pieces and killed at 23 weeks within the mother and yet to harm a premature birthed 23 week old baby is considered completely inhumane.

Slavery is a moral-based argument. You cannot prove that any particular person is of equal value to anyone else except by application of morals. And how would you prove except by morals that women should be equal to men under the law, and thus should have the right to vote?
