Dem. Rep. Kathleen Rice: The Word ‘Abortion’ Is Used by Pro-Lifers to ‘Raise Emotions,’ so ‘Stop’ Using It

The word “abortion” has been “weaponized” by pro-lifers to “raise the emotions” of others, Rep. Kathleen Rice (D-NY) suggested, calling for an end to the use of the word in favor of one less “negative” in order to “have a real conversation” on the issue.

Speaking in response to Dr. Christina Francis, an Indiana-based OB/GYN and chairman of the board of the American Association of Pro-Life Obstetricians and Gynecologists (AAPLOG), during a House Energy and Commerce Committee hearing on Tuesday, New York Democrat Congresswoman Kathleen Rice complained of constantly hearing the term “abortion” being used in a “negative” light when referencing the killing of a fetus, also known as feticide.

“All I hear is a bunch of conversations where the word ‘abortion, abortion, abortion’ is meant as a negative term,” Rice said.

It was an abortion; an abortion,[ . . . ] something unholy and evil. I don't want your son; I wouldn't bring another of your sons into this world. An abortion, Michael... it was a son, and I had it killed

I don’t use the word abortion, murder works just fine and is more accurate.

Everything lefties say is meant to “raise emotions.”

Division and fear is all they’ve got.

I agree with her. Unborn Baby Murderer is far more accurately descriptive. Abortion is far too generic.

Gee the 'net has been awash in proud liberals since the SCOTUS ruling, claiming they had abortions without guilt or shame.
That didn't last long, did it?

May I suggest infanticide or dismemberment as an alternative?

You know, all I hear is a bunch of conversations where the word “rape” is used as a negative term...

You know, all I hear is a bunch of conversations where the word “patriarchy” is used as a negative term...

You know, all I hear is a bunch of conversations where the word “conservative” is used as a negative term...

LOL! “it was a son”...Wow I remember that scene. Once she said it was a son you could see Michaels head almost explode. Damn, I gotta watch that movie again, greatest movie ever.

Slavery, murder, torture, abortion, cruelty, tyranny, injustice...so many words that Hell would like replaced by euphemisms to deaden the moral sensitivities mortals.

We should be accurate when we describe or name the procedure.

Chop-n-suck.

No more ‘abortion’.

Let’s use the more meaningful term: killing humans in the womb; killing babies; murdering those about to be born; killing the ‘oops’ or mistakes.
