Pro abortion activists holding up signs basically saying if abortion is outlawed then more woman will be hurt going back to using coat hangers and back-alley abortionists.

But that doesn't say anything to me other than the extent your willing to go to get away with murder. They are basically asking you to show sympathy to the woman, but I see the event in the same light as a home invasion where the intruder kills the homeowner, but the homeowner's wife shoots and kills the intruder. I see only justice.

Of course, this is only if the mother willingly wanted the abortion. I know sex trafficking and porn hubs force woman to abort children.

Why’s women choosing not to let a child live? I think it’s a question of maturity on her part and of maturity of her surroundings. We should never condemn a pregnant woman. We should be celebrating the new life. Regardless of how she got pregnant. Until then we’re all a part of the ongoing baby killing.
It is sin

If anyone could take the time to read the following transcript and comment it would be very helpful. All I need to know is if the speaker is advocating pro-Life, pro-Choice, or neutral? I am trying to be a peace maker among people who disagree about how to interpret it.

When reading these verses [Isaiah 58:6-7] we see that the people with power were inclined to treat others like beast of burden. They were inclined to victimize their own people and they were inclined to use the situation to gain for themselves cheap land and cheap labor as they allow the poor to forfeit their lands and their homes and their freedom.
Today the powerful are serving their own interests under the disguise of God’s righteousness. Serving self-interests is about what works for me and what resonates with my own experiences. So to protect what works for me, and what resonates with my own experiences, systems and structures are established to insure that my rights, my privileges, and my beliefs are protected. But this is often done at the expense of what works for others and what resonates with other people’s experiences.
We see this in the arguments surrounding the topic of abortion, and also, the topic of being angry. You see those who claim to be “Pro-Life” say I think abortion rights should be outlawed. But this claim is normally at the expense of interfering with other’s rights. And the Pro-Lifers use scriptures to support their claim.
Now let me preface this. I am a man, I am a person, I am a believer of God that believes in life. I don’t believe, personally, in abortion. But I am too also a biblical theologian. And the bible shows me that God gives everybody free will. And if I interfere with other’s free will then I am acting as God, instead of acting for God. You see, the failure of the argument is God gives free will.
I don't know the commenter's position, but this is a pro-choice statement.
Is abortion wrong? Consider this: Jer 1:5: “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you, And before you were born I consecrated you; I have appointed you as a prophet to the nations.”
Fact: This is not a special case. God knows where every "speck" of the vast creation is, including it's destiny.
