If men could get pregnant there would be an abortion clinic in every Walmart.

You would be able to buy the pill at every convenient store. There would be no abortion debate.

I am SICK of the hypocrisy! The only comfort I take is that I don't have to look these slimeball politicians in the eye.

exclusively black and brown women seeking abortions, my guess is that big-money RW forces (i.e., Koch brothers, etc.) would ensure that there were more clinics in every town than Starbucks locations.

Because there is a very definite racial component to the abortion debate, which one may ignore at their own peril. Think Chump's "Make America White Again" mindset he consistently drives home to his base, in particular by going back to the immigration debate again and again and again.
