Topic	Why don't most pro-life people act like an atrocity is happening?

Because that side of the political spectrum generally prefers to do things through the proper, legal, channels? I'm not advocating for illegal actions, I'm asking for an explanation of why people who think there's a holocaust going on don't take to the streets in protest, incessantly call their legislators, advocate any measure that reduces the number of abortions, push for a constitutional amendment banning abortion, push for science proving that fetuses have the features of person-hood, etc. It should be an issue that causes moral outrage even greater than what slavery caused, but instead it's merely a wedge issue that again seems to be driven far more by sexual conservatism than a desire to save lives. Taking to the streets in protest and incessantly calling their legislators (as opposed to doing it on occasion) is much harder when you actually work to support yourself and your family instead of depending on parent / government handouts. The rest... they, y'kno, kinda do do those things? This is basically email chain letter level conservatism. Har har, libs don't have jobs so they protest, while conservatives pay taxes and raise families. Conservatives had time to go to Tea Party rallies and Trump rallies (the biggest of all time, right?), but not enough to call their legislators more than a few times a year or protest about millions of babies being killed? They have time to live normal lives with fun, but they don't care about that? And they see that whatever "civil" approach they're taking isn't working and is leading to more death, but they don't change? That reflects very poorly on them at best. But you might be right considering this same group of people's reaction to other horrible things. I've worked for legislators in conservative states dealing with healthcare related stuff and we never got a call related to abortion, even when healthcare was by far the biggest issue a few years ago. But people definitely call their school and complain about sex ed. Again, this should be significantly worse than slavery in their minds and yet most spend what little energy they spend on shaming and telling women to keep their legs closed. --- https://imgur.com/0Bi86cp <cite>legendary_zell posted [p:904212042] in Why don't ...
