  • Just to be clear:

    A. If abortion really were such an awful emotional experience, it would seem women would take the tiniest precautions to avoid it in the first place. Literally millions don't care.

    B. It's an easy and highly profitable procedure.

    C. Doctors risk their lives?

    How many have been killed?

    Now how many convenient store clerks have been killed because they chose to serve poor communities?

    D. While we whine about "rights" keep in mind that there is no federal law that prohibits abortion in the last week for any reason.

    The reasons can include choice of sex, hair color , convenience or just to piss off the spouse.

    A. Part of society is solely involved in self centered existence. In that, caring for the ending of an unborn infant's life goes out the window a lot.

    B. Some dr.'s make millions. It's a disgrace. Reminds me of the "Silence of the Lambs" movie. Abortion doctors should be imprisoned.

    C. It isn't easy on the victims - the unborn child and the mother. All too often, a young woman makes that decision, and it causes serious emotional

    problems for life. It's a tragedy most women don't think about until it's too late.

    D. There should be. Responsibility has also gone out the window in a pretty sizeable subculture of liberalism in our country.

    A: the abortion is only emotional for girls who want their baby or really have mixed feelings about it, in which case I would advise against it. Unfortunately I know two different girls that have had at least three abortions apiece. It's worth noting both those girls are attractive and from decent families, To me, that sort of behaviour is reprehensible and completely lazy and irresponsible. But its happening. And apparently neither thought twice of it. Birth control pills are your friend.

    B: yes. Yes it is.

    😄 I've heard of attacks on abortionists but can't confirm

    😧 No you're correct there is no law against it at this time. There is, however, nothing granting it as a right. There is , as I recall, an inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Does not an abortion infringe upon a tiny American's right to life?

    A. I've had a friend who had an abortion. It was a tough decision, but I don't think it had a traumatic effect on her. The most difficult part of it for her was hiding it from her family. My sample size is only one, so here's something more meaningful.

    http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/21486261

    If you read the abstract, it says that when all relevant risk factors were considered, there was not a significant difference in the mental health between women who had abortions and women who didn't. It's only one paper, but if you search for abortion depression on that site, you'll see that most of the data shows that there isn't a correlation between abortion and mental illness. The reason that so many people say it's awful for the woman is because of entities who demonize abortion, like the Catholic Church, who willfully misinterpret scientific results. If you read the abstract, you can see how easy it would be to pick and choose.

    B. Agreed.

    C. Steve, I will concede that it's unlikely that if you are an abortion doctor, then you're unlikely to be killed by an extremist. That being said, the fear of being killed remains. It's actually much like a 7/11 cashier because while they know that they may be specifically targeted for a robbery, abortion doctors know that they may be specifically targeted for a murder, arson or harassment. The difference between them is that 7/11 cashiers don't have to fear these robbers harassing their families and homes.

    D. Not sure what point you're trying to make here.

    There is , as I recall, an inalienable right to life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness. Does not an abortion infringe upon a tiny American's right to life?

    The Declaration of Independence doesn't hold the force of law in this country.

  • As to C, sure I believe there have been attacks.

    I just don't know how many abortions doctors have actually been killed.

    Very few, two? One?

    Hundreds of convenience store clerks.

    Conversely hundreds of priests.

    Yeah, priests get killed in Central America in the 80's. Please, do tell, where priests in the U.S. have to fear their lives?

    http://www.prochoice.org/about_abortion/violence/history_violence.html

    In the early 1990s, anti-abortion extremists concluded that murdering providers was the only way to stop abortion. The first provider was murdered in 1993. Since then, there have been seven subsequent murders and numerous attempted murders of clinic staff and physicians, several of which occurred in their own homes. In 2009, NAF member Dr. George Tiller was shot and killed in his church in Wichita, Kansas.

    You can't seem to differentiate between a clerk getting killed during a robbery and a doctor being killed because of extremism.

  • Lol.

    I think some of you are just talking out of your ass about what women think and feel

    lol

    Sure I can.

    I'm talking to pure numbers.

    1 or 2 doctors does not make an epidemic.

    No more than 1 or 2 priests killed by atheists such as yourself.

    😮

    Bottom line: the clerks job is infinitely more dangerous.

    Why??

    Face it, most abortions are performed because the woman doesn't want the kid for any number of reasons, health being the least likely.

    Men can be as unprepared to be a parent for the same reasons.

    You don't believe in equal rights??

    Yes, I believe in equal rights. This isn't that though. I believe in equal rights where they apply and there are actual discrepancies.

    Its not your pregnancy and it is not your body. You aren't suffering through all the symptoms for 9 months and you aren't the one possibly risking your life (rarely) at the end. Sure, you provided some DNA, and because of that you should have a say. But not as much as the female.

    I wouldn't expect a female to have as much say as the man in regards to the guy getting a vasectomy either.

    But see Woody, you miss the point. I am not advocating the woman has to have the abortion. I am simply saying the man is able to abort his rights as parent of the child and won't be required to pay for the child's upbringing. It's the woman's choice as what to do at that point.

    If a woman can abandon her responsibility, a man should as well.

  • That's not the same thing...

  • Steve, in any of your articles where does it say the priest was killed for being a priest? Also, where do any of them say he was killed by an atheist?

    Also, why do we get to have pages of arguments about abortion but none about religion.... Bummer

    No idea woody, I didn't read em either.

    Just saying that there are crazy bastards out there.

    Of course if you actually believe that a late term abortion for nothing but convenience is killing a child.....

    you might think killing a doctor that has done that thousands of times, well you understand.

    Lol, this has got to be one of the worst arguments I've ever seen by him. He talks about how priests are being killed because they're priests, and being killed by atheists (like me), then his evidence is a bunch of articles that he didn't read about priests being murdered. haha, I mean sure, abortion doctors have it bad, but let me see how many unemployed have been murdered. I bet the numbers are bigger there.
