I know it's not what abortion champions want to acknowledge, but it is true. Deal with it.

You might want to look at that poll a little more closely yourself.

The actual numbers were posted here by katzpaw:

For the last eight years the numbers are stable. Keep in mind that the margin of error is +/- 4%. That means differences of 4 percentage points are not significant.

If you don't want an abortion, then don't get one. Pretty simple. Why some people think it's their right to determine what a woman does to her own body is beyond me.

It is indeed beautiful.
Annie Lennox has a gorgeous version as well, sung with The African Children's Choir.

Worth looking for on YouTube.

What a great group of young people. They are our future for sure.

"The group singing was Crusaders for Life, a pro-life teen group known for their positivity, prayer, and yellow clothing. Though it was started by people from St. John Cantius parish in Chicago, IL (a parish famous for its traditional architecture, music, and liturgy), the group now has chapters around the country."

First off, I couldn't understand one word they were singing, if you can call that singing.
Just sounded like a bunch of moaning and groaning.
As for "They are our future for sure", so are gang banger's, drive by shootings, prostitution, illegal drugs, pedophiles, tax evaders, illegal aliens.
The list is endless, and this small group you refer to as "our future"is but a fraction of what the future holds.


That is the stark reality.


Bob.

Whose opinions? Anti-choicer's? I will go with scientific stats and facts thank you very much. And you want me to search for some poll you cherry picked? Really? And btw...
Quote:
PRINCETON, N.J. -- Half of Americans consider themselves "pro-choice" on abortion, surpassing the 44% who identify as "pro-life." This is the first time since 2008 that the pro-choice position has had a statistically significant lead in Americans' abortion views.

Quote:
The majority of America is now pro-choice

As we approach the 44th anniversary of Roe v. Wade, the landmark Supreme Court ruling that legalized abortion nationwide, more Americans than ever before oppose overturning it — a clear rebuttal of President-elect Trump’s anti-Roe position.

https://thinkprogress.org/pro-choice...-d8963029ae45/
Deal with that fact.

I'm sure these are very nice people. But people dressed in yellow singing Christmas carols are not going to change anyone's mind about reproductive rights.

I'm kinda puzzled on that one as well.

My BFF, who had an abortion when she was 17 and is neither proud nor ashamed, told her daughter about it when her daughter was a teenager, and told her about the complications that followed. It helped the daughter understand that actions have consequences.

Most great works are not dependent upon one religion or another.

I thought everyone knew that condoms weren't the most reliable nor the most convenient form of birth control. Guess not.

You really have no idea of what Planned Parenthood does, or who it "targets", do you? Grade schools? OMFG.

Honey, you need a good sex education counselor! Stop spreading disinformation.

Bevause if it was JUST her body then we wouldn't have much of an issue. The problem is she's aborting another human being. We can discuss whether not she has the right, but make no mistake, pro life advocates don't care what the woman does to her body.
