The main point within the Pro Life community is where Abortion is used as a method of Birth Control. Where it is inconvienent to have a baby - so it is aborted.
Rape, Incest and to save the life of the mother are not used in that fashion.
It is clearly different.
and who shall define when a woman cand and can't have an abortion? Norma McCorvey got caught lying when she stated that she got pregnant as a result of a rape ... and she had that baby because the Texas gov-mint said that she had to have the baby. See, this is why the so called conservative movement is such a bunch of bull doo. On the one hand, they say, gov-mint stay out of my life, but then they want to insert the government into a woman's uterus ... can't have it both ways ... guess they'd rather see a woman hemmorhage to death on a kitchen table or in a hack's office because .. know what ... women will not be forced to carry a baby to term if they do not wish to.
And I also find it a bunch of bulldoo that these same people do not believe in educating young people about the consequences of having sex, protected OR unprotected. They are actually under the delusion that abstinence is the only way to go. Yea ... worked out well for Sarah's daughter didn't it?
This little girl, and I repeat LITTLE GIRL, was raped by her stepfather. Forcing this CHILD to bear a child of rape, and putting HER life in danger, is nothing short of CHILD ABUSE. She was absused once and is now abused a second time.
Wow... The children need more homework... and mandatory sport activities... Also this needs to be investigated... Who is the father? Nothing fine about a 11year old being robbed of her childhood.

I had a decision to make: perform a late term abortion and save the life of my wife OR allow my wife to remain on life supports, let our child be born, and lose my wife.
My ultimate decision was largely based on various conversations between my wife and I. After our child was born, I had to kiss my wife for the last time -
Our son turns 40 this year - and every year, we celebrate his mothers life

Sorry you had to be put in that position, that had to be very difficult.

Why? Beacuse some people have a RELIGIOUS AGENDA?
Oh stop your ranting. Abortion is NOT illegal, had she wanted one she could have gotten one. Stop acting like she was FORCED to carry this baby because she was not.

Nope. They are pro-lifers who recognize that there are some situations where an abortion may be justified. Pro-choicers are those who believe that elective abortions are justified in all circumstances because the "fetus" is not a life worth protecting. Pro-lifers view the unborn as a life that demands the same protections under US laws of life and liberty.

I don't agree with abortion in these cases, but such exceptions would only allow roughly 2% of current abortions, outlawing all the rest.
Thank you!
