It's not that I'm avoiding it, I just don't care. That's a famous right wing contingency that doesn't make sense. The fallacy being that if you think that the fetus is a person that is constitutionally protected then you can't abort it under any circumstance. I personally think the fallacy comes from the fact that the right realizes that they are pushing their religious/moral beliefs on people and when faced with something as abominable as rape or incest your religious/moral convections knows no solution.

Which again is why it's better to base these arguments on clear logic instead of emotional theological beliefs.

If you're going to hold me to it though, I stand by what I said. With the number of rape and incest estimated being almost 1 in 4 there's no way that number is 1%. You're looking at reported numbers...most of this stuff goes unreported. It's not like girls are excited about announcing that daddy knocked them up.
