Isn't it ironic that "pro-choice" individuals yell about the "right to choose" but they take away............

I agree.\n\nIt's also ironic because they want to kill innocent babies, but they don't want to execute deserving killers and rapists.\n\nI'm not sure how their minds work.

Do you really want to see back street abortions? My God what if your sister (God forbid) was raped and fell pregnant, what if the baby was so badly deformed it would spend the rest of it's life in and out of hospital having painful treatment.\n\nI have a friend who tried for years to get pregnant and when she found out she was she decided she didn't want it after all and had an abortion. People like that make me sick, she was just selfish and wanted a new toy.\n\nYou have to look at each case, everyone is different. I'd give the world to have a baby but I can't and it makes me sick when someone casually says "the baby, oh I changed my mind and got rid of it." I just think FFS why didn't you give it to me.

How about just "Hypocrites" for both? The "pro-life" people think life is sacred, and abortion should be banned, but then they turn around and sentence people to die for heinous crimes. But then your "pro-choice" people think it is OK for a woman to kill an unborn child, but don't you dare kill someone who raped and killed an 8-year girl.\n\nBoth sides make no sense to me at all.

A human fetus is a human baby. And the pro-choicers are killers who simply don't want any kind of responsibility. They want to horse around, have sex and get pregnant. Then they want to run and get an abortion, saying they want the right to do what they want with their bodies. But they made the choice to have unprotected sex. Perhaps they need lessons on taking responsibility for their actions.

Good question.  They say they're pro life but then again they're pro death.... seems two faced to me...

Actually, this is one of the oldest arguments they use to support abortion. They think kids are better off dead than imperfect.

Because some people want it and some people don't.  And none of the politicians who make laws want to get involved.  Too many factors involved.\n\nI'm anti abortion, but have no urge to blow anything up to make my point.

Get them to stop the hate... Jesus spent 98% percent of the time talking about the least among us....Conservatives have seemingly abandoned the least among us...Example: Pro Life: Great idea but instead of being prolife they should be called pro-fetus...Once the baby is born..they abandon it and it's poor mother...Now is that really prolife...

Ain't that the truth\n\n They will kill their own baby and fight for the right to have abortions done later on in the pregnancy. \n\nBut they are against the death penalty and they fight for a killers rights.

Of course they would if they got in a position where they didn't want a child.  When a lot of those pro-lifers do get in that situation they will try to say something like "Oh I'm not like to the other females, because this or that happen, so this is why I'm having an abortion".  It's usually okay for them, but their anti-abortion when it's someone else.

A woman has the right over her own body, regardless of whether there is a zygote, embryo, or fetus present.  It is not a "baby," regardless of the necessity of that word for emotional appeal.\n\nLook, here's my take on things: if you are so opposed to abortions, then stop trying to make them illegal and make them unnecessary.  Work to provide better free or at least affordable health care.  Work to improve sex education for our youth.  Make birth control easily accessible and cheap.  Establish better support for women who wish to give up a child for adoption.  Provide better assistance to people of low incomes who have children.\n\nTHOSE are the major contributing factors to abortion procedures, and if you and all other anti-choice protestors are so caught up in fixing things, then FIX THOSE THINGS.  \n\nI'm pro-choice, because in our society women need to have that option.  I'd love for elective abortions to be completely unnecessary--and so I am trying to fix the problems that lead to them, rather than trying to punish women already in difficult situations by removing their rights.

You have logic in your argument, and it makes complete sense.  People just want a reason to justify not having to deal with a baby, because they wanted to have sex more.  People need to speak up for, and fight for those that cannot fight for their own lives.  Unborn humans, which if left alone, will grow to become like you and I, did not ask to be made or born, but have the right to life like you and I.  I will always fight for them, and speak up.  There are little souls in there, and people don't realize how totally serious it is to stop a beating heart.

I know I do agree with you.I don't get how they don't want you to have a baby out of wedlock and if you do they look down at you and if you have an abortion they look down at you. But their is a lot of people out their who want baby's and can not have their own.But I think that it should be up to the woman.If she wants to have an abortion.It is her body and she has to make that choice for herself.No one should tell someone else what to do with their life's.That is one thing that is wrong with the world now.Everyone in everyone Else's business and everyone trying to tell everyone how to live their life's.

You raise a perfectly valid point, and one with which I happen to agree. That's why I tend to avoid answering abortion questions. When I do weigh in, however, it is always on the side of choice, simply because the alternative contradicts my fundamental philosophy regarding the rights of the individual in society. It makes not one iota of difference what I personally think of abortion, unless I am directly involved in some way (i.e., I'm the potential father). \n\nMore to the point, however, I don't believe this issue is ANYONE else's business but those parties directly involved. In other words, it NEVER should have become a political or moral issue in the first place. It is an entirely personal and (very) private issue. So, when male politicians and religious leaders jump in with both feet, that's when I get really angry. It could not be any LESS their business, and no amount of sanctimonious moralizing is ever going to change that fact.\n\nOne final point. I think every abortion is a tragedy, but not for the reasons the pro-life zealots say it is. The tragedy is that a young woman is going through personal hell and is making a choice that may well haunt her for the rest of her life. She may be having the abortion for any number of reasons (rape, incest, health dangers, personal choice, whatever) and she will doubtless suffer for whatever decision she makes. That sad fate is plenty bad enough without having perfect bloody strangers blundering in to voice their disapproval on top of all else. \n\nThe bottom line is that this is rightly her decision to make in the end. Sure, if there is a father present who actually wants this child, he should have a say in the outcome. And doctors clearly have some role to play here, too. But how did such a deeply painful and personal choice ever become fodder for hypocritical politicians and pious religious leaders (whose primary responsibility is to preach tolerance, surely)? It is madness, pure madness...

I believe that's taking it a bit too far. I consider myself to be anti-abortion but at the same time, I realize there are certain cases when abortions should be a choice for the woman just like how the death penalty and divorces should only be reserved for extreme situations. Those cases include rape, incest, performing the operation to save the woman's life, or finding out that the baby will be born so deformed that it'll die in less than a year.\n\nOn the other hand, I don't believe a woman should simply choose to have her own baby killed just because she decided to get drink just a little too much at last night's party or willingly gave in to her boyfriend because "[she] thought he loved [me]." When that happens, I'll have absolutely no respect for her if she chooses to go to one of those alley-way abortion clinics.

more sore loser crying from the right.trying to equate the legal act of abortion with the war in Iraq that was started on a lie is ridiculous.your own self righteousness is your undoing.to put this in your terms,its o.k. to kill men, women and children for oil and the financial advancement of your friends at haliburton.But aborting a non-being by legal means in order to not fill the orphanages with unwanted children that the likes of you would never adopt is wrong.brilliant.

No I don't, and you missed one; abortions.  I can't figure out why they are so opposed to abortion.  It has been their friend for over 30 years, ridding the USA of over 45 million potential libs and socialists.  About 25 million of these "cradle to grave" dependence who think they are entitled to free stuff would be of voting age today.  The dems would not have to send out those buses in their "get out ta' vote" campaigns if these mal-contents were allow to be born.  I think the dems aught to demand that aborted fetuses be given social security numbers so they can send in absentee votes....NOT !!!
