abortion is murder...justify it however you want...abortion is the murder of a baby period
So I guess you demand a law be passed requiring all pregnant women to give birth or else face murder charges. Right?

I agree with this.

I myself would not touch this subject with a ten foot pole. In my opinion, NOTHING good comes out of abortion debate.

All these being said, one woman shared her life experience and I am sure she is not alone. I am not sure what this would prove though. Does it prove that all women should not go through it? probably not.

It is a tough decision I am sure and I dare to say not many women are truly "proud" of the decision. I guess they had to do what they had to do. Maybe many feel a sense of "relief?"

I don't think women who had abortion should be demonized. It is really an individual choice and decision. I don't judge either way. If you feel abortion is necessary and this is the good decision you make with the knowledge you have at the time, fine. Just know that there is no turning back, you really have to live with it. It is YOUR decision, not mine.

Agree. I'm sure, as well, that there are women that regretted their decision and some that felt relief.

An abortion clinic is likely not where anyone wants to find themselves.

Then once again, do you pretty strongly THINK that a law should be passed requiring all pregnant women to give birth. Women breaking that law must be charged with murder?

There is not a thing wrong with caring. There is everything wrong with trying to legislate everyone to believe in the same things.
Personally I am no fan of abortions. I am even less a fan of supporting unwanted children that I didn't sire. Abortion is a deeply personal choice. The woman will live with her decision for the rest of her life and doesn't need men telling her how she should really feel. Nearly every first world country allows for abortion. The morning after pill etc.
I personally feel that abortion, as distasteful as I m might find it, is the responsible choice for a woman who neither wants nor can afford to raise a child.

Why would they silence her? She had an abortion. That's the fact of the matter. If you turned the clock back again she'd do the same thing again. Period.

Heck- if you asked people decades later about many of their life decisions they'd change their minds...but that has absolutely nothing to do with the original decision.

Silence her? Why would I even watch or listen to her? I've been silencing her for decades....

Man, people really need to stop thinking that Reality TV show people are "real". Isn't it the same crowd that crows how they hate celebrities, druggies, hollywood, etc.....that, all of a sudden, come out of the woodwork and tell us we should heed what these people say?

More power to her. Now - if you care about what other people say, I have an opinion also. Regrets are not a good thing..in general. There is very little in my 65 yo life I regret...and I've done some stupid things (haven't we all).

One needs to move on. Listening to Reality TV stars is not part of personal growth.

What is the Sharon lesson? "Do as I now say, not as I do (did)?".

Well, that's been the same lesson for 1000's of years. Do as I say now.....I didn't. I did what suited me. But you shouldn't.

Some people should care.
Some people should care about wasted sperm and eggs (periods and wanking).
Some people care about eating animals - killing them for such.
Some people care about your car and plastics and insecticides causing cancer in others...
Some people care about poking holes in the earth, polluting the groundwater, etc. to get you oil and gas.

People care about a lot of things. I care about ALL those things except the eggs and the sperm (2nd thing in line). That and family planning are none of my business. They don't cause me cancer or alter the natural world.

No human has the capacity to care about everything. How much do you care about all the dead Palestinians or Syrians...or Iraqis killed with your tax dollars? A little? A lot? Enough to go protest?

So are you equating the death of a baby with eating animals, plastics, holes in the earth?
