While a fetus dies during an abortion, women also die when they don’t have access to proper reproductive services. People died in concentration camps and during civil rights protests. However, I would never compare reproductive issues to those historical events. . . . Regardless of which side we stand on in this debate, let’s not do an injustice to those who endured so much in WWII and in the United States during the 1950s and 1960s to allow us to have the freedom to have this debate. . . . Doing no harm may be impossible. Doing the lesser of harms is more achievable.
