I couldnt have said it better myself!!

too lazy to use a condom? they're only effective 99% of the time, and only if applied properly. And again, the child gets born because it serves the girl right? Or are you saying that a 16 year old is going to get MORE responsible when they have a child than when they had a fling?

K, let me point out the sadly obvious... abortion isn't just a woman's choice anymore when another life is inside of her... it's brutal, disgusting murder. A fetus starts feeling at nine weeks... which means they can feel when their guts are sucked out and their neck is snapped in partial birth abortion, and other forms... sorry that were too sloppy to use a condom, but abortion is disgusting and sadistic and it isn't just the abortion doctors, it's the self-centered mothers who are only concerned about themselves and not the child inside of them... people who agree with abortion are just trying to hard to be liberal. If you want to be liberal, let's talk about gay marriage! AMEN!!!!!

"Having an abortion is the woman's decision. End of story. I wouldn't ever get one, but it's not homicide - it's not a CRIME"

uh excuse me but if it isn't a crime then why, in the laci peterson case which i'm assuming most of you are familiar with, are they taking the death of her unborn son into account against scott? it might not be homicide but it certainly isn't just a la-dee-da no big deal thing.

Having an abortion is the woman's decision. End of story. I wouldn't ever get one, but it's not homicide - it's not a CRIME. Yes, it's ending a possible life, but if a girl can't physically or emotionally handle having a baby, I don't see how you or anyone else can admonish her for it. Have you ever gotten pregnant? Yes, abstinence is a sure-fire way never to get pregnant (unless you get raped), but does that mean every girl who has protected or unprotected sex is capable of raising the child? Some would say that it's their own fault, and that they should have thought of that before they slept with a guy...but no child deserves to be born as a "fitting punishment" to a troubled, irresponsible teenage girl. And furthermore, there are schools in the country whose sex education doesn't even cover exactly what can get you pregnant or give you an STD - they just say "don't have sex, or you'll get pregnant." and leave it at that. It's not fair to blatantly disregard that some teenagers WILL be sexually active, just because they shouldn't. So, regardless of whether a girl thought about what she was doing or not, her having an abortion isn't for someone else to criticize.

I would rather my mother had gotten an abortion as opposed to her beating everytime I made a mistake. I am against abortions-if and only if- the girl was RAPED.

So you're saying you're a rape baby?

You said that "the government should have no say to what the woman does to her body/child" are you saying that if the mothers choice is nto to get an abortion because she thinks she can handle it, that its okay for her to beat her child and the government cant do anything about it ? Because honestly I would rather my mother had gotten an abortion as opposed to her beating everytime I made a mistake. I am against abortions-if and only if- the girl was RAPED. If it wasn't rape then I would consider it MURDER. But think about what I said earlier "the child" what would the child NEED ? Dont be selfish most teenagers cant handle it and those that can give up their childhood for adulthood out of love.

I personally don't agree with abortion and would never commit the act myself and unless I felt I had absolutely no other choice.

HOWEVER, I am pro-choice. I think that in America, we are (supposedly) allowed freedoms and choices. And I think this is one of them. I think that whether or not to have an abortion is the woman's choice and it should remain that way. The government should have no say in what a woman does with her body/child. There is an exception to everything and I am sure there are exceptional circumstances in which I would consider it okay to have an abortion. I think that there are just specific situations in which that would be okay. So basically, I wouldn't, but I think other women should have a choice and a say in the matter. The government should mind it's damn business and stay the hell out of it.

you know, if i had the chance to chain myself to an abortion clinic, i would, and i would proudly be arrested. it is murder, plain and simple.

to me, abortions are wrong. i know alot about it and because of everything that i know, i wouldn't be able to ever have one. if it is in the 1st trimester, it's still a fetus, but it quickly turns to human. during the 2nd trimester it grows appendages and things like that. the thing that really gets me though is how they abort a child. in the late 2nd trimester and the 3rd trimester they put the mother in labor and when the baby's head comes out, they stab it in the back of the neck with blunt scissors to drain the spinal fluid. that kills the baby. then they throw it away like it's a piece of garbage. i've seen pictures of abortion clinics with garbage bags of babies thrown in dumpsters. to me that's just messed up.

It can't feel, and it can't think. Technically it's not murder, unless the fetus is completely formed

it is STILL a human!! and for those of you who are gonna say "its not a human yet" then what the hell is it????? yea its a fetus...but its not like its some alien thats gonna blow up the world or something i mean dayum people its a freakin human being.

No, he's saying that homosexuals aren't adding more members to the population. They're helping control it. It's a good thing.

okay, lemme get this straight. your example of overpopulation is too many homosexuals?? Not many gay people are having babies. And Anyway, What the He11 does that have to do with abortions??

okay, 1st you've compared humans to ants, could you have picked any 2 species further apart? And 2nd, how do you know what animals/species have emotions and which ones don't?? Just cuz they're the size of a pin. And u know what, I personally, would rather be an ant: being that they work together on everything they do. Humans? We bicker, nag, fight, we don't get along unless something really bad happens (such as 9/11/01). As a matter of fact, I'd rather be any species than my own, becuz then I wouldn't ever have to make a choice as the ones I thought we were discussing here. "Animals" don't get the luxury of a choice; they get in hest, they get laid, they get pregnant, & they have babies. Point: You people are all sick for comp[aring yourselves to ANTS!

To say it is ok to murder, because there will always be murder, is to say its ok to rape because there will always be rape.

You said it, Hermy! (I like Hermy better than Mike. Just tell me if you hate it.)

la la la..these abortion posts are getting old, theres no point in it, you cant change the views of others very easily, especially on this topic, i'm pro-choice, i dont care if a fetus will run from a vacuum, lots of things run from vacuums, the fetus has the instinct to survive, ooh big deal, you ban abortion, you will have an increase in illegal and un-safe abortion practices, its just a fetus...but like i said, thers no use trying to convince people, im not arguing, im saying, this is my opinion, dont bother arguing with me because im living my life how ever the hell i want to live it, ITS JUST A FETUS! the world is over populating anyways, homosexualls, abortions, murderers, and any other thing that results in death is just lowering the population for you so be happy!

Not really. My dog bit me the other day. That didn't show affection. Ants are actually quite smart. Their communication skills are astounding compared to other animals. Ants are real neat. (I did a report on them a while ago.)
