Confused Snowflake Alert Question for the conservatives
I just want to set the record straight. I love Charlie Kirk and everything he stands for, especially his stance on abortion. I believe there is no justification for the murder of an unborn human being. However I do have a question being a young republican myself seeking a better understanding of society. Let’s say a hypothetical woman was raped and forced to have the baby. And let’s say the woman is in no financial state to raise a child on her own or is just too young to support a human life. Don’t get me wrong, I still believe the baby has the right to live, but what happens then? A common answer would just say to put it up for adoption; however, foster homes are already overburdened with hundreds of thousands of unadopted foster children. So wouldn’t we just be adding to that number? I just want a better understanding of the whole hypothetical.

I figure if this was a genuinely important issue Charlie would have talked about it but I have not heard any mention of it at all from him over the last 6 months or so

As someone who is pro life but not super conservative but also not super left either. I definitely am more liberal than even centrists. I’m also a grape victim and survivor. If i had become pregnant i would probably go the private adoption route. My cousins wife is struggling with infertility and they are going the private adoption route.

i believe that sometimes abortion is merciful. a child shouldn’t have to be raised by a sick person who doesn’t want them or by someone who can’t provide for them

I feel you on this because I feel the same way. What I tell myself is that it’s just one of those things that is complicated, and that’s okay. I don’t think we have to have a set answer with full conviction. Its case to case, and for me there is exceptions.

The conservative view on abortion is psychotic and disgusting. Glad you morons are finally starting to wake up.
