  • Pro Life - Hardly

    The pro-life crowd has missed the bus again..Isn’t the financial strain of pregnancy and the health care costs associated with bearing and raising children a coercive factor that leads some women to have abortions? Won’t mothers with great affordable health care be more likely to choose to keep their babies? Isn’t this a good thing?

  • Re: something that is never mentioned

    I had no doubt that some of you would dismiss the first source. That's why I arbitrarily picked it - Chapter One, Footnote One. However, this claim may ALSO be verified through Gallop. But more importantly, there are multiple sources - some I'm sure you wouldn't dismiss. Unless of course, you've already to decided to dismiss information from ...

    Are you sure you were looking at an ultra sound and not a video? Was the machine probe pointed at her uterus? Fingers and toes are DEFINITELY visible during the late end of the first trimester when most abortions are performed. Yet, what you saw and describe doesn't surprise me. PP isn't really interested in presenting ''choices''. Choose any ...

  • Re: Catholic Hypocrisy

    HI Cassandra, Where I work, we have some large printing equipment. A woman who knew I was pro-life approached me and asked me to make her a sign that read ''I regret my abortion, ask me why'' She wanted the sign to use as she protested at an abortion mill. So when I made the sign for her, I asked her why. She said that she knows she killed ...

  • Re: So sick of this.

    Correction.... one point six million murders per year. Almost fifty million since Roe v. Wade. That's roughly 17% of our population. That's 1/6 of our population - young people who would be starting their own families now, paying taxes, buying houses and contributing to society that are missing. Yep, no issue is bigger than slaughtering 1.6 ...

  • Re: something that is never mentioned

    HA! You've fallen for the hype that ''It's just a blob of tissue.'' of ''A bunch of cells.'' But let's just assume (for a moment) that this is true (as you think) during the first trimester. Are you then in agreement that abortion is wrong in subsequent trimesters? Here's a link about fetal development ...

    Check your facts folks. PP does NOT encourage or promote adoption. IF they did ''Planned'' ''Parenthood'' would be a natural segway toward adoption and offer the services themselves. But they're not really planning parenthood for anybody. Interestingly enough, the Crisis Pregnancy Centers who DO promote adoption are on PP's target list. ...

  • If this happens there will be a lot more problems...

    I'm not an expert but I can speak from my own experience. I had my son at the age of 16. I am pro choice but I didn't want to have an abortion. I dropped out of high school, I eventually got a GED and started college but it was too overwhelming with a child to take care of. I am now 28 and live on welfare and take care of my special needs 11 ...

  • Re: Mongoloid Idiot

    I agree with you - there is way too much PC pussyfooting going on about this subject. In no way do I question a mother's right to continue, or not, a pregnancy. However, I do question the judgement of someone who might, due to a combination of voter aberration and accident of fate, become President of the United States, in knowingly allowing a ...
