    Your second paragraph is spot on and something I hadn't considered.

    We're now referring to 6 week old embryos as children? I'm sympathetic to some pro-life arguments, but this is pretty extreme. Many women wouldn't even recognize they are pregnant at that point. We have no right to force them to continue their pregnancy.

    Abbott's really been on a roll the last month, with the anti-vaccine stuff and now this.

    I guess when you lose the constitutionality argument, and you can't defend the insane lack of fairness of the law, you need to resort to false moral outrage...

    The danger of such a radical activist court arose during the trump presidency. Perhaps the question of increasing the number of Supreme Court seats should be reconsidered in light of this?

    And why do some matter to y’all in say a teen mom with no resources while others grown in a fertility clinic, where most will be tossed or failed implantation attempts, don’t get a mention?

    I’m not being snotty; it’s a genuine question if conception is your answer to the age-old “when” issue.

    I don't object to you referring to embryos as "human". More relevant is when do they become persons. There is no hard answer to the question, as it is a philosophical one, but development at least to the stage of viability seems a reasonable requirement to me.

    "If a fetus is a person at 6 weeks pregnant, is that when child support starts? Is that also when you can't deport a mother because she is carrying a U.S. citizen? Can I insure a 6 week fetus and collect if I miscarry? Just figuring if we're going there, we should go all in."
