Look up what "Genocide" means before using that word.
Anti-Choicers started claiming that abortion is genocide and that we (pro-choicers) should be called pro-genocide instead.
First of all: what the actual hell?
Second of all: let's have a look what genocide actually means, why don't we?
"the deliberate killing of a large number of people from a particular nation or ethnic group with the aim of destroying that nation or group." (Oxford Dictionary)
Neither of those criteria fit abortions. What a surprise. So before throwing around with words, look up what they actually mean. It's actually disgusting to compare a medical procedure to a crime like that.
Last time I checked, abortions aren't being performed with the intend to destroy fetuses of a particular nation or ethnic group.
This is what "abortion" means, for those who aren't sure:
"the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy." (Oxford Dictionary)
I don't quite see how this definiton and the defition of genocide match. So again, stop mixing things up.
That's all.
