A lot of pro-abortion people seem to think that if you're pro life it means you hate women or are anti human rights. What about the life of the baby though? It's debatable whether human rights is something that should be granted to the unborn but believing so doesn't automatically mean you have bad feelings about women.
It depends on what one means by "pro-life". If it means that you are saddened by capital punishment and work as hard to promote its ending as much as any other issue, then that's one thing - an honorable perspective where human life is venerated with integrity. If instead it means that you believe that other people should necessarily have to live in accordance with your personal beliefs and values, instead of those they themselves subscribe to, and you choose to make a point of your offense specifically with regard to the matter of abortion, then that is indeed the practice of misogyny, a form of hate.
In the end, everyone interested in this issue is "pro-life". They just defined life differently. Therefore, those who try to label their misogynistic perspective as "pro-life" are just committing a deception to try to rationalize their offense. They're anti-woman's choice - nothing other.
A fetus is not a human. A fetus is not a baby. It's a fetus. Which is a blob of goo the size of a quarter that cannot live outside a woman's body. No different than a booger. Therefore, a woman should have full, unconditional control over it's fate. It's her body. Her choice. She can take the fetus out and cook it, serve it with toast and orange juice with a side of bacon, and eat it for breakfast, if she so chooses to. Just like there are people out there who eat their own boogers.
I advise that you march down to your local junior college and take Biology 101, so you can learn the basic differences between a human being and a fetus.

I think you should take a biology course first. I get your point but you way of communicating that point is not going to be effective. If you believe in a human "soul", abortion is very much akin to killing. A fetus is certainly not similar to a booger.
If men got pregnant instead of women, not only would there be federally-funded abortion clinics on every street corner, but a right to an abortion would be guaranteed in the Constitution.

Repeat after me, "pro-choice". It is a woman's right to chose whether she will abort or deliver. To say that one is "pro-abortion" would be implying that a person is for the destruction of every fetus. I doubt this is the case.

Personally I'm against the death penalty and abortion and I find it highly unfortunate neither practice will ever end democratically since the majority of the populace supports both.

Since you start your thread with "pro-abortion people", a group that exists only in the minds of those incapable of understanding the word choice, shouldn't there be a poll choice that this is a troll thread and nothing else?

Irrelevant. Men haven't evolved the form to give birth so it doesn't matter.
