That's a sticky subject. Setting aside the moral issue, what if she sees no future with the guy?
What if a realistic appraisal shows that if she does have the child, he's not going to be much help with financial support?
What if he's a total loser? It's something to think about. We have a family member who had a kid (didn't believe in abortions, good for her) and never did tell him. It was decided it just wasn't worth the hassle to have him in the picture.

Rapists' too?

BTW - Lots of entitlement being displayed around here, in particular when folks casually suggest women should just travel elsewhere to have the procedure. Guess what? If you're struggling to make ends meet, a trip to New York or California in place of something that should be available locally is akin to saying to those with means "Hey, your local Japanese restaurant was just closed, but you can fly to Tokyo if you really require a bowl of ramen"

Some people have to travel elsewhere to legally carry a firearm. And that's actually in the Constitution.
New York and Chicago were all in with respect to their sanctuary status — until they were hit with the challenge of actually providing sanctuary. In other words, typical liberal hypocrisy.

I am not pro-abortion by any means, but for Audiophile specifically, abortion clinics are a business, shouldn't they have a right to exist? You've argued against smoking bans, so I'm wondering why abortion is different.

I never said they don't have the right to exist. If the baby dies in the womb, or mother life's is in severe jeopardy, you'll need to go to a clinic.
Psalm 139:13 ~ For you formed my inward parts; you knitted me together in my mother's womb.

Jeremiah 1:5 ~ "Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, and before you were born I consecrated you;

Exodus 20:13 ~ “You shall not murder."

It’s the inside of a woman’s body. One which contains many things that appear on an ultrasound depending on where you place it. Give it up LL.

You’ve only experienced it on a screen, just without the vagina.
Running out of insults are we? 4 go arounds will do that.
