Notorious abortionist Leah Torres is at it again. After engaging in a debate online with the Dank Pro-Life Memes<\/a> account, Torres began discussing the concept of when human life begins and what exactly abortion encompasses — and admitted that not wanting to be pregnant anymore<\/em> counts as a “medical reason” for a woman to undergo an abortion<\/a>.<\/p>\n

At the beginning of the conversation, Torres seemed to acknowledge the humanity of the preborn, tweeting<\/a>, “Human beings are pregnant with human beings.” But then, when asked to describe how she would describe what happens during an abortion, she responded<\/a>, “Products of conception are removed from the uterine cavity.” She also tried to argue that being pro-life is meaningless<\/a>, as everyone is pro-life. But then the notion of opposing abortion unless it’s medically necessary was broached, to which Torres had a surprising response.<\/p>\n

While abortion advocates frequently claim abortion should be legal simply because a woman should be allowed to choose for herself, more hysterical arguments tend to resort to the arguments of rape, disability, or the mother’s health. The problem with arguing that abortion must be legal in case a woman’s life is at risk is that abortion is actually\u00a0never medically necessary<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In the case of a true medical emergency, doctors will deliver the baby right away, either through an induction or a c-section, which is faster and safer than an abortion at that late stage. A late-term abortion would take multiple days, as opposed to hours. And as former abortionist Dr. Anthony Levatino explains, abortion does not save women’s lives.<\/p>\n
