I feel like they're both missing the point. Obviously Captain Pedo is totally down with pregnant tweens, but Hofstetter got whooshed by the fact that the father is probably also a 12 year old, and that the possible involvement of rape should have zero bearing on whether or not she should have safe access to abortions. Hell, at 12 they should be mandatory.

Why is the pregnant child traveling away from where he's standing specifically?

Not that it changes anything in the women’s right to abortion, but a 14 or even a 12 years old boyfriend can get a 12 years old pregnant.

Yes, but his consternation is not about a "baby" dying, but that a woman or girl could make a choice behind the back of her husband, father, or boyfriend. That's why he frames it the way he does.

I agree. OP is greatly over generalizing the situation here. But as the other commenter said (even if the evidence is on the older less reliable side): the majority of cases are of older adults raping 12 year olds.

The composition fallacy doesn't necessarily make the statement invalid, as considering the aim of the first person, that aim directly corresponds to the conclusion of second person and has a link with the supplied evidence.

As I say in every thread:

Blue Checkmark Lunatics.

In my eyes, these posters mind as well be bots. I do not get why still use Twitter.

Is he saying they should have to Uber after he gets them pregnant?
