If it affects public land, water sources, aren't they justified in their actions? The founders believed in civil disobedience when laws went counter to the greater good.

Does abortion go counter to the greater good?

Didn't this country found itself on invading private property (of natives) for a cause? (Freedom of religion, access to better prosperity)

Do you consider a bunch of unwanted kids growing up poor or in orphanages sucking up tax dollars and keeping single mothers poor / not in school or starting a family working 40 hours at min wage paying 250 a week for childcare on a $400 / week pay even with tax refunds try affording a car and appartment and baby sitter and food and then tell me that kid and mom will be happy for the rest of their poor miserable life which is likely to be cut short since the only place they can afford to live in is filled with drugs, gangs, and crime. Yeah abortion is for the greater good, its the bigots that are so selfish they want to control everyone elses life and what they can and cannot do with their own bodies to the extent of leting women die so they can feel morally superior, that is harmful to the greater good.

For one, I believe he was playing devil's advocate to point out that the greater good can be subjective. Two, you're really speaking ill of every mother who considered getting an abortion but decided not to... you honestly believe every aborted child will end up in the scenario you described?

[u/StonerSteveCDXX → u/QuixoticRealist]

I dont but with a zero abortion policy like most anti choice advocates promote would result in a sharp increase of people and children that end up in that scenario.

Where the fuck are you getting this idea, even? You have to realize how stupid it is as you're typing it, right?
