dunt dunt duuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuun
So, those folks that are pro-choice...I get that they believe a woman can do what she wants with her body...does that mean those folks don't consider a fetus to be a living thing? Even if a fetus isn't viable on its on, is it not a life?
I'm just curious more than anything. I've been pro-choice for most of my life. Legs is very much pro-life.
I think there is a fundamental difference in how people view a fetus before viability and that distinction makes a big difference about how people fall on this topic.

I'm glad I wasn't aborted.

I personally think at conception you have a developing human being.
I think that abortion as a medical procedure or social necessity has been going on forever. I also think that if we do jot provide safe and judgment free abortions, back alley abortions will be had by our mothers, sisters, daughters etc.
And that's it.

Rationalize murder by redfining it.

I find myself becoming more pro-life as time goes on. Maybe Legs is wearing me down.
I was pro-choice because I don't like the idea of making the rules for someone else.
I feel more strongly than I ever did that a fetus is a living thing the second it's created and that ending it is tantamount to murder.
I believe in women's rights but I don't believe that a woman has the right to end a life (beside her own, but that's another topic altogether).

I'm still not sure where I fall on abortions due to rape/incest/etc. I can sympathize with the victim, but I still think the unborn has a right to life.

Personally I don't give a fuck about a woman's choice
I can choose to put a bullet in your head as well and I'll call it pro choice.
Even if you get raped, it's a fucked up thing to do. Try and convince ppl it's somehow right due to circumstances?

I also think Pro-Life people protestors tend to be awful fucking people. I remember seeing a bunch of them protest near the mall by my house. Their signs were terrible and I will never see them as the reasonable people after that.

If this thread turns into a venk vs. tater flame war I'm going to be disappointed. I fully expected the thread to go off the rails but I was hoping we could have a real, adult conversation about abortion before it does.

So that child gets to come out and be unwanted/have all that baggage on them before they have even begun to live a life? Are you going to care for that child if it put up for adoption? How great is that life in that system? Those are also questions to deal with.

Please expand on how pro-lifers are awful people. You think yelling at young women about to get abortions is classy? It's basically like protesting a funeral. Their signs had the most heinous graphic shit I've ever seen on them. Why do they get to show that shit because of "god"?

Awwwww.. those poor fucking women getting yelled at and having their feeling potentially hurt while getting a baby ducked out of them What you should expect is to live with your actions. The "system" breaks human life down into values and numbers , which makes abortion a business.

There's plenty of people that are pro life that have never been in front of an abortion clinic in their lives. Don't paint with a broad brush. I think you can make the argument (dependent on your POV) that any militant protesters are awful people.

treetophigh - Part of my reasoning for being pro choice in the past was just what you described regarding the back alley abortions.
