The argument for nuance is a veiled argument for abortion.

Don't kill other living beings/humans. Pretty straightforward stuff.

It's murder. I want to see these "mothers" prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and receive lengthy custodial sentences.

I can see how that is sometimes true, but in my case I'm coming from a fully pro life perspective. The nuance isn't about whether it's ok to kill the unborn sometimes, the nuance is about different ways of handling the issue from a strategic standpoint.

Throwing a bunch of people in prison isn't the answer. That would contribute to the further degradation of society, on the taxpayers dime no less. These women have been brainwashed by the state - they're not all "shout your abortion!" A lot of them are desperate and confused. Many already have children, and locking them up would just cause more harm.

I'm guessing you will say something along the lines of, "I don't care, they're murderers, lock them up," which is fine. You're entitled to your opinion. But the fact is that it would help no one, and hurt more people.

Strong general deterrence is required in this case. These people have a grotesque sense of entitlement.
