What is your stance on abortion?
I'm conflicted. I agree but at the same time things can happen: rape, sexual abuse/assault, incest,…
In cases of rape, sexual abuse/assault, incest, and unaffordability the child is just as human as he/she would otherwise have been. D-mn the circumstances, it's a human being, do not murder it.

Children that are products of incest do not have a good quality of life. They have increased genetic disorders, fluctuating facial asymmetry, lower birth weight, and higher infant mortality and child mortality rates. Not to mention, 95-97% of children that were conceived because of incest report to being sexually abused as small children. I will and would always abort a child if I was raped by my father or brother. You have absolutely no say in what I do with my body, as a man.
So you're arguing that it's justified to kill people who do not have or will not have a good quality of life? Might as well gun down homeless people and people with physical or mental impairments. The implications are unthinkably horrible.

It is not your right to murder babies because you don't view their life as worthwile. I don't care if you don't want an ugly baby, ugly babies are human just as pretty ones. Eugenics is an affront to human dignity and those who support it should not be respected as participants in our political system. Even if they are sexually abused, you do not get to make the decision that their life is not worth living. We actually do have a say in your baby killing because we live in a society in which the rule of law protects the life of our citizens (or perhaps I should say it SHOULD do that). Your "freedom" is worthless and invalid if it means justifying a slaughter.
