Abortion? Which side do you fall on?

[mrveggieman]

wow...smh

So what should we do? Tell people that we are going to deny them access to avoid unwanted pregnancies then when they have the baby tell them tough luck?

I'm pro choice with a limit a some point within the pregnancy. I'm not sure of that limit as I haven't ever had to decide if this was a viable option for me nor do I know the exact stages of development.

If a pregnant lady is murdered, should it be considered a double murder?

Oh and to answer this question. Yes. it should be. Just because the woman would have the right to choose abortion for herself doesn't mean the murderer does.

Just as bad because if someone would have had access to contraception/education they probably would not have to kill their unborn child. Also since a lot of anti abortion people are also anti sex education, anti contraception and against social programs to help children what are you going to do with all the unwanted children when they are born? I'm would never encourage anyone to have an abortion but remember the old saying an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure.

Im all for sex-ed, etc, but there is a difference between a pill and a child, right? Please clarify.

and veggie- did you really just say killing an unborn child is not as bad as denying contraceptives?

KEEP IT ON TOPIC PLEASE. A debate about sex-ed is already on-going in another thread.

Yes it is a difference but all of us would agree weather we are for or against abortion that it is better for a woman not have an unwanted pregnancy in the first place than to chose weather to have an abortion or not. Some of our more conservative friends would like to deny a woman (or man) for that matter the right to protect themselves from unwanted pregnancies and stds. SMH.

while I don't agree that it's the same thing wouldn't the handing out condoms also reduce the rate of abortions. I think it has the potential to. just a thought.

Sorry if I veered off topic but I am against abortion and want people to have access to prevent unwanted pregnancies.

If you are a sexually active female there will be times when you will become pregnant and your body through various reasons will naturally abort the fetus most times without the person ever notice. That being said you would have to hold most all females in the same contempt?
