I would never vote for an anti-choice politician. They aren't "pro-life". They're anti-choice,and anti-abortion.
Gotta just love the use of the word *choice*. So IF rape were to become legal, would you then begin calling all of those who would STILL speak out against it as *anti-choice*?
What a stupid stupid word that pro-aborts have stolen to soft coat the atrociousness of what abortion actually is:
the intentional killing of an unborn, still developing baby.
If I and other people are pro-choice it's not because we like abortion and want abortions to happen. It's because making abortion illegal will only make a bad situation far worse.
How much worse can it get than massacring the most innocent of beings? Seriously ... you act as if the ONLY way to deal with an unplanned pregnancy is to kill the unborn baby.
How about not getting pregnant? How about adoption? How about taking responsibility and giving the child the love and protection that EVERY child, both born and pre-born, deserve?
I would never vote for a candidate who is stupid or naive enough to believe that making abortion illegal will ever stop women from seeking and obtaining abortions. Or stupid enough to believe that women will not go to back-alley abortions and risk their lives and health this way.
Who said anything about believing that abortion will stop ALL abortions? Criminalizing rape, murder and child molestation has never stopped those crimes either. So what's your point?
Or one stupid enough to believe that the poorest women will not try to abort themselves,with the inevitable disastrous results.
So you believe that poor people should be allowed to kill their children because ... they are poor?
And even worse,many of these anti-choice are idiots who are not only opposed to abortion rights but actually want to make contraceptives illegal. What would this do? It would only create a black market in contraceptives and drive the abortion rate much higher.
Well, I am not myself against contraception ... HOWEVER ... as you know, MANY teens and women are multiple aborters or don't use protection because abortion IS their contraception of choice.
When a country makes abortion illegal it invariably increases the number of abortions greatly as well as the number of women who die from botched illegal abortions.
So like should we make murder, rape, theft, etc. legal, do you suppose that less people would die because they wouldn't have to sneak around to do the deed?
Also,when a candidate is anti-choice,he or she almost always wants to greatly reduce or eliminate government help to poor pregnant women and the poor in general,which only keeps the abortion rate high. If we are to do anything about the problem of abortion,we must make sure that the government proivides much more help to poor pregnant women,married or single,so that they will be much less likely to seek and obtain abortions.
I have no problem whatsoever with government helping pregnant woman with medical costs for their pregnancy, aftercare and newborn care. However, like everything else in life, just because a circumstance makes life difficult or causes a hardship, there is still no reason to do harm to others to make our own life easier.
My life would have been MUCH easier if I could have robbed numerous banks and never worried about my childcare, rent, my children's school tuition, etc.
However, the easy way isn't always the moral way. Being a parent, like anything else, is a struggle and not easy. However, the rewards of bringing up and caring for another helpless human being who we are personally responsible for bringing into this world outweighs the struggle.
Anti-choicers disingenuosly and self-servingly claim that there is already plenty of help for poor pregnant women available from the private sector for pregnant women in difficult situations.
This is a blatant lie. There isn't even remotely close to enough help to see to it that poor pregnant women can provide decent food,shelter,clothing,education and medical care for their children,born or unborn. It this were the case as anti-choicers claim,there would be far fewer abortion sin America.
I AGREE and would love to see more help go towards aiding mother's and their unborn babies. However, why do you believe a hardship makes it okay to kill the unborn baby? The unborn baby did NOT ask to be brought into this world. There is no pregnancy fairy. The PARENTS, by their own actions, are responsible for the existence of the unborn baby.
This is why the Catholic church,which blindly opposes abortion,contraception, medical research, and all that is the REAL culture of death. What they advocate for society would be catastrophic,because they are so out of touch with reality.
Also,I would never vote for a candidate who shows hostility toward homosexuals,even though I am heterosexual.
I'm also a Jew. Homophobia is no better than anti-semitism.
Hey, I also wouldn't vote for a candidate who is infested with homophobia or anti-semitism ... however, that has nothing to do with being against abortion.
