but the laws basically state (at least in our state) that you can drop off a baby at the local police station or fire station. So, I can only assume that those stations will at some point start to provide day care.

I think of the extreme pro-lifers or rather anti-choice people that voted for Trump - because of abortion. And I have to wonder if the trade off is going to be worth it. They may end up outlawing legal abortions, but promote illegal unsafe abortions. Even worse, their trade off in electing Trump may end up with us having a full blown war with Iran and her allies. And, I guess if that happens, then I can only assume that they are willing to sacrifice their young adult children in a war to protect the right of a fetus. I hope the trade off is worth to them....

I do know if we end up in a war, and I encounter a Republican protesting - I will ask them wasn't this the trade off you wanted, protection of the fetus at the cost of your children.
