> [@LavenderBlue](#): > > There’s nothing fair or just about punishing women for getting abortions in the name of your morality. Men do not get pregnant. They also don’t get gestational diabetes, pre-eclampsia or dead from childbearing. They should not get to tell women to take such health risk they are not forced to take. > > You can go on ignoring my comments, Hector. You cannot silence my voice or my vote. Which might suggest why it’s a bad idea to give everyone a voice and a vote. I entirely disagree with you about what fairness and justice are, and continue to be amused that you think this is about ‘men’ and ‘women’. You’re aware, right, that women are pro-life in about equal numbers as men? The real division here is between people who think about themselves first and foremost, and people who think about their duties to the common good. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/abortion-clinic-buffer-zones-in-massachusetts-not-legal-says-unanimous-scotus/691698)._
