You have to hope that people really have no idea what they are talking about when it comes to abortion when they do something like this.
We envision a world where people can access abortions without barriers or stigma. Access to abortion helps communities thrive. pic.twitter.com/bwkI9bfhio

I get why people are mad and hurt about abortion.
I get why people err on the side of “choice” for the worst-case scenarios.
I don’t get celebrating abortion other than utter denial about the reality of abortion: pitting the mother against the child, brutally killing the child, leaving the mother knowing that what happened was a violence against her and her child.
There are all kinds of hard cases — a woman having to be a single parent is extremely courageous. Giving birth to a child for others to raise is at the heights of self-sacrifice. Doctors routinely make parents feel awful if they fight to bring a child to term who may have special needs.
America will not be healed from the scourge of abortion until we get back to a widespread consensus that abortion is not good. Polls suggest we still have that. But those in leadership have another thing in mind. It’s not the first time the Shout-Your-Abortion mindset brought its darkness to Christmas, but it will always be at the heart of darkness. Christianity, with a Child at the heart of the salvation offered, will always be a threat to the evil of abortion, whatever politicians and others choose to do or not to do for the most vulnerable unborn — and women, who deserve better than abortion.
