I’ve noticed that everybody that is for abortion has already been born. (During the Anderson-Reagan Presidential Debate in Baltimore on September 21, 1980, https://www.thoughtco.com/ronald-reagan-quotes-you-should-know-1779926, accessed 9-27-2024)

People applauded heartily when two famous abortion supporters spoke recently about what an important influence their mothers had on their lives. Many people took issue with a famous abortion opponent when he talked about how the most important role a woman can have is as a mother. What a strange would we live in.

I’m assuming that the abortion supporters who praised their mothers would have been just fine with their mothers if they had chosen to abort them. The above quote from Ronald Reagan simply points out that those who support a woman’s right to abort her child forget about the fact that their mothers chose not to abort them but to gave them the gift of life.
