I don’t think you’re being too literal. That’s the avenue I’m exploring too.
Thats what I don’t understand the absolute nature of the OP picture/quote because it only refers to bodily autonomy is an “essential unconditional liberty”. Restrictions on being able to purchase drugs would be a condition to exercising that “essential unconditional liberty bodily autonomy” wouldn’t it?
If the avenue to consume the substance is illegal, then how is bodily autonomy unconditional? It isn’t. Further, the OP picture/quote cites the acceptance of this flawed premise as a precondition to discussion with them. These kind of topics are rarely compatible with absolutes like the OP picture/quote suggests. Life has more shades of gray rather than the easy absolutes of black and white.
Yes, there are problems. I was particularly focusing on those 3 you pointed out. But I also think abortions goes beyond bodily autonomy.
First there’s the level of being allowed to do it. It’s illegal in some states to abort if you find the means.
Then there’s the right for medically assisted safe abortion if you so desire. I see that as a human rights issue but not as a bodily autonomy issue.
But maybe I’m being too literal?
