What torques me is that so many of the abortion fans don't give a hoot about the kid(s) after birth.

I see it and read about it every day. Last week a pit bull totally mauled a 3-year-old's face. A few years back another 3-year-old was killed by her dad's pet python. Every year a few kids are left in 150-degree cars while the parents are shopping. The clincher was a couple weeks ago: A young woman stepped forward to tell how the seven children she's given birth to are all her father's. He started abusing her when she was 14.

Priorities need to focus on the children after they're born.

I think you misworded your title. 'Fans?' CurtEastPoint Jun 2022 #1
"Fans" is merely the shortened form of "fanatics." n/t allegorical oracle Jun 2022 #5
But it usually means "fanatics in support of", doesn't it? N/T Foolacious Jun 2022 #6
That is my point. Fans means ME LIKEY. The 'fans of NO abortion' are what you describe. CurtEastPoint Jun 2022 #7
You mean what the OP described. I agree with you. N/T Foolacious Jun 2022 #9
I guess we are all "post-born" now. We don't count for anything Walleye Jun 2022 #2

They don't really care about the kids, they mostly want to control women.

These are the same people who complain bitterly about their taxes going toward food stamps, housing vouchers, etc.

Life is sacred in the womb, but once it's born, it's on its own.

Has no business interfering on a matter with such an unquantified and personal burden.
