You know Trump faked being religious, right?

The people running and in office lately tend to be an extreme version of what their constituents really are. That's why so many have left.

Anyway, I don't think you can compromise on abortion bc if a person truly believes it's murder, how do you compromise on that?

So there is no compromise to be had. It simply is not your place to try and play God. The quicker Republicans grasp that and realize that protesting a woman's choice doesn't get them a free pass into heaven, the better.

Oh and I'm a libertarian, not a Democrat.
There is no heart emoticon??

You believe in choice until you choose to have the kid and then you want a man to pay for that choice.

Republicans/Conservatives are much more diverse in their religious and ideological beliefs than the stereotype that Liberals attempt to paint them with.

Abortion already appears to be a Democrat form of Birth Control. No need to make it legal for only them.

An African-American woman is almost five times likelier to have an abortion than a white woman, and a Latina more than twice as likely, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

I am speaking as a Libertarian about Republicans. Republicans are not very open on issues such as these, which is why I am not one. They want big government in your personal life, usually due to their religious convictions. They don't truly support the First Amendment.

I believe you're wrong. I and most Republicans I know are for the freedom to choose. We may not be for Abortions but realize they're going to happen whether they are legal or not.

I'd also like to see free Birth Control centers in every Middle and High school.

It's his kid as much as hers.
