Are you Pro-Life or Pro-Choice?

[musclebrains]

EXACTLY.

Someone has to speak for them.

If prolifers put nearly as much energy into advocating for America's unbelievably abused children, they'd do us all a favor.

But in my experience the same people who claim they want to speak for the entire class of the "unborn," inevitably say the rest of us shouldn't interfere in the upbringing of other people's children. It's an almost predictable contradiction.

 

[the nature boy]

well then the pro life people can keep the fetuses and they'll be adopted. problem solved.

yeah right. tell that to all the kids an orphanages. oh where, I ask you, are the pro-lifers to help these poor children???

exactly....

well, I'm late for lunch, as much as I'd like to work myself into a frothing rage over abortion.

I'm pro-choice, pro-privacy rights....I'm certainly not anti-choice and anti-privacy.

It's really a simple issue: Does a woman have the constitutionally protected right to privacy? Thus far the Supreme Court, under Justice Blackmun, has said---YES!!! Abortion is protected by the United States Constitution under the substantive due process clause/right to privacy principle, has been for about 30 years. But, with the Bush v. Gore extremist court, there might be an upcoming battle to protect our nation's health and a woman's fundamental right to privacy. Surely, the women in our great nation will prevail.

good point.

 

[the nature boy]

good point.

it would seem to me, and this maybe a generalization so I don't want to cause an uproar.... but the pro-lifers only care about fetuses, they don't seem to care about babies once they're born. What happens to the black kid that nobody wants to adopt? Or the kid with AIDS? OR the kid with downs syndrome? Oh where are you pro-lifers?!?!?!

Also, lets pretend we live in a fantasy world where there are no abortions. WHO'S GOING TO TAKE CARE OF THOSE FUCKING KIDS THAT DON'T GET ADOPTED!?!?!??! Oh no, not us. We don't want to spend money on social programs to take care of those damn kids.

We should export them as food to the Koreans, in order to discourage the consumption of dogs.

no shit. the unwanted kids who dont' get adopted are basically treated like unwanted dogs. And unwanted dogs can bite when they are allowed to run free in society. A child without loving parents and love in it;s life is a walking time bomb.

 

[the nature boy]

oh where are the pro-lifers? oh, they must be taking care of kids that are unadopted. how nice.

I wouldnt' want to have an abortion- but I believe that should be every woman's choice.
