I rarely post on abortion threads, because I figure what is the point. People are so polarized and there isn't much room for compromise. So the question has anyone on this board ever changed their mind on the issue because of information they received or life experience etc.
I definetly changed stances. i was very much pro choice. then my baby was killed by her mother without even talking to me. i then realized its more than a womans body, more than her choice. more than a lump of cells. its easy to call life a lump of cells to defend killing it. But its still denying a life. its more than the mothers body, its the babys body . the baby is more than the mothers baby its the fathers baby to. Abortion is more than about the mother, its about a baby , a life, the father . hard reality made me change my mind. So do not think i do not udnerstand yoru argument i just now find your argument a fallacy
No idea,if it is so that would mean quite a few....

Yet, you and other pro-lifers like you, like to point to third tri-mester abortions as the norm when you argue to ban abortion. Post pictures of third tri-mester abortions, etc. Pass off pictures of a fetus that was dead before it was cut up to facilitate removal as having been cut up before it was dead.
Who wants to ban abortion?
You support taking away a woman's right to choose when she has her abortion,you favor restricting it to an arbitrary(and no longer applicable) timeline thought up in 1972....
All I asked is how looking at an ultrasound is restricting anything.

This is my same situation...before our first child I was 100% pro-choice...now,years later I'm pro-life...but I still do not feel I nor anyone else have the "right" to tell a woman what to do with her own body.
If so,on what grounds?
I mean while it is riskier for the woman,that is her choice to make.
I think once the baby can survive on it's own under another person's care, then abortion should no longer be an option - unless the mother's health would be compromised. This includes if the baby could not be prematurely delivered without harming the mother.
Neither for nor against. But I am against public funds paying for it. An option I would live with is make the recipient pay back the costs. Call it a low interest loan and that includes the sperm donar.
How many THOUSANDS of posts have to be made of the fact that abortions are not paid for by taxpayers. But an unwanted pregnancy and 18 years of welfare is.
