Writing in the New York Times, Mary Ziegler frets that abortion restrictions will end up “pitting the interests of fetuses and women against each other.”
If one concedes, as Ziegler here does, that the unborn have interests, then it is abortion that must pit the interests of the unborn against their mothers in the most fundamental and intolerable way.
If our pro-abortion friends are now conceding that the unborn have interests, they are halfway home in spite of themselves.
