DanG 1 #26 January 27, 2009 QuoteThe Democrats/liberals on the other hand, are 80% (12 to 3) in favor of infanticide. Man, I tell you, ain't nuttin' so fun as killin' me some babies. The younger the better, is what I say! Yeah, who needs some babies killed? Find your nearest bleeding heart liberal, we love killin' babies. Wooo! Get over yourself. Everyone who has responded "in favor of infanticide" has said that they wish there were no abortions, but they're glad that women have the right to choose. If you can't understand that, I can't explain it any clearer. - Dan G Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SpeedRacer 1 #27 January 27, 2009 There are better ways to deal with the abortion problem than government aggression. The church I used to go to had a big sign on its front lawn advertising free counseling for pregnant women. They wanted to educate women on what their options are besides abortion, and if necessary, show them where to go for adoption agencies, etc. THAT is the way to stop abortion. Not just ban it by law & then walk away. Speed Racer -------------------------------------------------- Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnRich 4 #28 January 27, 2009 QuoteSpeedRacer: The gag rule actually causes more deaths through abortion than it prevents. Please explain. Quotebillvon: You're showing your prejudices again. Yes, I admit it - I'm prejudiced in favor of saving babies. QuoteDanG: they wish there were no abortions, but they're glad that women have the right to choose. Sounds contradictory to me. If someone said; "I wish there were no drunk driving deaths, but I'm in favor of allowing people to choose to drive drunk if they wish," would that make sense to you?

billvon 2,994 #29 January 27, 2009 >I'm prejudiced in favor of saving babies. Of course. And when liberals support reproductive rights, they support infanticide. When conservatives support the exact same rights, they are supporting a women's right to choose. No double standard there! Perhaps we can do the same with gun rights. When liberals support gun rights, they are supporting every american's second amendment rights. When conservatives support gun rights, they are doing it to support the rights of murderers to kill innocents again and again. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wmw999 2,447 #30 January 27, 2009 Quote Sounds contradictory to me. Not the least. Let's take guns as an analogy. You are glad we have the right to own guns, right? One of the important reasons to own a gun is to fight off attackers, right? Does that mean that you're in favor of attacks? Probably not. Just that a gun is a good way if you find yourself in the situation where you need it. Even if you're in that situation because you a. built your house where someone could get in b. were walking around a part of town where there were assailants c. work at the post office any of which could be considered high-risk behavior by some. The fact that a tool exists doesn't mean it has to be used. And if it's overused, you try to find better ways to address the real problem. After all, taking away my channel lock pliers doesn't mean I will always have the right size socket. It just means that if I don't, I'll use something else to round off that nut, or just leave the item unfixed. Sometimes those are both worse options. I think the right to choose abortion should be bolstered with as much information as possible to make sure that it remains a big powerful tool, rather than the tool of choice for most. And the vast majority of abortions are done when a miscarriage would be barely noticed. We don't hold funerals for 8-week miscarriages. Wendy W.There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence.

Laszloimage 0 #32 January 28, 2009 Not all of Gitmo inmates are terrorist. Because they were captured in a conflict on THEIR own land fighting U.S. and coalition forces doesn't necesarry qualifies them as a terrorist. Actually just a very few of them are there because of 9/11. They should be on trial just like any other enemy solders. Yes, that would be patriotic because those trials would comply with the laws of the US and everything else this country suppose to stand for. Unborn babies are unborn. That means they are a possibilty of life but they just not quiet there yet. That should be the pregnant woman and doctor's decision when to perform abortion. No one ever (including Obama) tried to encurage such a teribble procedure and spend millions of Dollors on abortion anyway... But sometimes it's just a "better choice" to stop pregnancy in its EARLY stage, even if it's a very sad one. . And ultimately the religious "freaks" should be out of politics and legislation anyway. They didn't do too much good for humanity, just look at history. Stopping wars actually is a lot better idea to save lives... right??? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Laszloimage 0 #33 January 28, 2009 Why is that important to force a 15yrs old girl to keep her baby after she was raped while she was drunk at the party????? Why is that important to force that 15yrs old to give birth and maybe give up her child for adoption??? So she could live with that for the rest of her life? Why is that important, that adopted child one day has to find out he/she is actually a result of a drunken rape??? Is that really supports true life???
