The person in need of the kidney has a right to life and your refusal infringes on it. If you’re willing to tell women they must risk their health for a potential child, you should approve of the government forcing you to risk your health for a person who needs it. It’s just a balance of rights, is it not?
I would disagree here. Their right to life cannot infringe upon my rights. In my opinion that is a different scenario. I can understand if you disagree.
You are saying that a woman in full control of her facilities and in no danger of medical complications one day before her due date should be able to abort the fetus? What about giving birth half way babies head is out of the mother, can abort the baby? What about still connected before they cut the umbilical cord? Still able to abort?
I would disagree here. Their right to life cannot infringe upon my rights.
How do you not get that this is exactly what you’re demanding of pregnant women?? The fetus’s right to life cannot infringe on the prospective mother. And that’s just a fetus, the transplant recipient is a full unquestionable person with a myriad of relationships, obligations, and contributions to society.

This is not a situation that ever exists. Birthing is a traumatic process that incurs risk of death and long-term damage to the body, even when everything is going well right up until it starts. You don’t seem to know much about pregnancy.
I’m ignoring your other questions because they’re stupid.
I get that, i believe i asked or infered the question earlier about when the fetus becomes a “person” is basically what this whole discussion revolves around.
You didn’t want to answer the questions because while they are stupid, much like forced organ donation, they are awkward to answer and they go against “100% her body, her choice” there is a line out their that at some point aborting the fetus is “murder” what that line is? I have no idea but we have laws for things like that. Much like we have laws that can force you to do things you don’t want to do for the health of others and yourself, go to jail if you are a violent criminal, go to the psych ward, court mandated therapy etc. At some point you shouldn’t be able to abort a child. You want to you want to abort a child for the first, second, third, up to the fifth month? Sure no questions six and seven? Kinda pushing it in my mind eighth or ninth? Kinda seems rediculous to me.
You are right i don’t know a lot about pregnancy I’m not a doctor, I’ve never given birth. Just what i read and have seen from friends/ family and being their for them during their recoveries.
At this point i think we are going in circles in the discussion, I’d be happy to continue but i don’t see the point. I hope you have a great week and thanks for taking the time to have a semi civil conversation with me about a very charged subject.
Jumping in here. Would you accept forced blood donation? If someone desperately needed a blood transfusion and no volunteer donors come forward, would you accept a government finding an eligible person and drawing blood by force if necessary? Why or why not?
That's hard to answer. It would depend on the greater good that the forced blood donation would be for. If it is because joe billionaire needs it for some elective surgery, no. If it is for some sort of pandemic and my blood will help sure. Especially if it is like a system that incenivises the donation in some way. "Hey patient A needs blood if you donate you'll be higher up on the list for xyz" or something
The logical followup is where is that line to decide if it's "enough of a greater good" and who gets to decide? My answer to that would be people that are smarter than me and people we put in office to help make laws. Regardless of what they decide i will have an opinion about it and look to discuss it.
I also give blood quarterly anyway. Getting out of forced blood draw would be easy, recent tattoos, rusty knife of unknown origin cut your skin while you were walking, or participated in an orgy with people of questionable virtue will all get you politely asked to leave. They don't mess around with potential blood contaminants.
