the facts are abortion is used as birth control for the lazy, stupid and the "oops" group (save the rape and incest numbers to justify allowing it to yourself) and is legal murder of an innocent life - for now


sounds like an effective social and fiscal policy.

You see... the moment someone starts talking about legislating abortion rights away, they immediately start talking about exceptions and exclusions.

Here is my angle on it.

If the law protects the life of fetus as a life in one case and killing it is murder, then it has to protect the life in all cases regardless.

It's either a legally defined life to be protected, or it is not. That needs to be the first thing straightened out. Which is it, one way or the other....not both.

So yes, if I believed that it is a human life and protected as such under law, then in no instance should anyone be allowed to kill it, unless the woman's life is in danger due to the pregnancy and not aborting would cause the mother and, as a result, the fetus die.

Basically, it's either a human life with full protection, or it is not.

Well... It's my take that it's life if the mother chooses it to be so. Otherwise, it's just tissue.

But that's not how it's defined in  law. The law is defining it as a life in the case of someone killing a womans fetus.....a life that is to be protected.

The woman can't just tell the prosecuter: "it's okay, my boyfriend hit me and killed my fetus, but I didn't want it to live anyway, so you don't need to go any further in the case"

Its a law the woman has no say in. They will go after a murder case.

Let me rephrase... it's life unless the mother chooses it not to be.

^^^^

Agree with Sandy 100%

I'm just being lazy.

Here's a question:
Would all the guys here still be anti abortion if they were the ones getting pregnant?
To have another have a say in what you do with your life/body?
Men fear thought as they fear nothing else on earth -- more than ruin -- more even than death.... Thought is subversive and revolutionary, destructive and terrible, thought is merciless to privilege, established institutions, and comfortable habit. ... Bertrand Russell
