I'm sorry for your incident, Scotty. I'm standing here with a 21 year old daughter because I refused the abortion he wanted to pay for.

It's a convoluted issue at best!

3. I think that doctors who perform abortions are cold-blooded murderers, but IF the government says something is legal, when it shouldn't be, then the government itself should be on trial--not the doctors who are not technically committing a criminal act.
Then it would fall back on the citizens for voting them into office.

I do not agree that passing laws against criminal acts is "messing with certain rights." Murder is a criminal act, and it is appalling to me that anyone would think that murdering an unborn child should fall outside the definition.

Furthermore, the laws are discriminatory against men, which is a minor issue, but an issue nonetheless. They are half of the parental set, and while their bodies aren't used to bring a child to fruition, if they are deemed fit, they should have an equal say-so in whether or not the child is aborted or not. If a mother can say "yes", the father should have the option of saying "no." Men's rights when it comes to abortion have been virtually wiped out.

The best way to reduce the number of abortions IMO is to allow them only for life & death situations, or in cases of rape, incest or molestation. I don't agree with it even then, but I think that if the law allowed for those extenuating circumstances, it might be passable.

We had some neighbors a few years ago, and the wife found out she was pregnant--didn't want to be--and aborted the baby. She informed her husband after the fact. HE never got over it. It was the beginning of the end of their relationship. He cheated on her and told her about it (his revenge I guess), she cheated back, and they ended up in a bitter divorce.

Men have been completely kicked out of the womb. It's the Women's Lib's greatest coup.

Re: Bill Clinton Loses Temper, Lashes Out at Pro-L

I find it hard to believe a Pentecostal preacher could be okay with abortion.

Unreal.

There are some sick freaks posting here!

To keep this comment in perspective, please know that I view the rights of a baby two months prior to delivery exactly as I do two months post delivery.

Why just two months prior?
