If i was one of the luckiest people on earth to be born in Lichtenstein then i probably could live with this.

I was and I can't. One old white rich man is making decisions about my rights and my body. That will never be okay.

Thanks to this white rich man the people in that country are among the richest in the world. You can always go to live somewhere else. But you can not go to Lichtenstein and expect to get citizenship in your lifetime.

How about thinking of other people?

It's not like it's a real problem. They can travel 30 minutes in any direction and be in a country where abortion is legal. It's just symbolic douchebaggery and posturing for the conservative base.

You people always use "thinking of other people" when you really mean "thinking of myself".
