Now I'm a strong supporter of abortion. People came up and said "Abortion is wrong. You're killing an innocent baby". How could it be murder if the child isn't born or have life yet? How could it be?

There are many states where a person can be charged with murder of the unborn if they harm, or kill, the pregnant female.

ah, that font is murder.

It's a compassion issue for me. If the baby is at a point where he/she can feel pain and fear, I'll defend his or her right to live to childbirth and be adopted.

Prior to that, I don't have an issue with abortion (I guess 1st trimester would be my cutoff).

Sadly, it's different to kill an unborn "wanted" baby rather than an "unwanted" one.

Good thing all that changes once we're born, huh?

I can't help if my typing is too small. That's just me.

But, if a woman accidentally gets pregnant and she does not want the kid, then I think it would be best if she had an abortion. Its better than taking care of a child you don't want.

Oh, I agree! But a person knows when they're pregnant, for the most part, within the first couple months.

And...how do you make your typing small and can't help it? lol

p.s. looks okay in your most recent post...

There are MANY loving families waiting for a child to adopt. While the birth mother "may not want" the child, there are many who would give the child a wonderful loving family to be in.

I feel like women and MEN should suffer for their wrong doing. If you are too stupid to use protection then you get stuck with a kid no if,ands or buts.

Who is a "supporter" of abortion? If anything, abortion should be a last resort for those who are in very bad situations in which a child would not be cared for or loved properly. I think this is a very poor choice of words

When I'm typing on Microsoft Word, I type in 5 font in Arial Narrow. My mother used to get on me because of my small typing.
