That test is coercion, you support coercing women?

I don't think the government should be able to tell people what they have to do with their bodies. Abortion doesn't count, the government had no right to make murder legal in the first place. That being said, since it is legal and there's not much we can do about it, I do understand wanting women to see what they are killing, but I don't think they should have the power to make them do it.

A principled conservative should abhor from a law taking a medical decision out of the hands of doctors. But those are in damn short supply these days.
It fits right in with the "limited government intrusion in our lives" unless we disagree with your decision of course.

I am personally opposed to abortion when used as birth control but I think the 50% figure bounced a round in this thread is way high, but since there is ZERO chance of me needing one, it isn't my place to make that decision for any woman.

I think in most cases the decision to get an abortion isn't an easy one.
Some cases the woman is "forced" to get one by the father.
In some cases the father changes his tune about having a family once she "gets herself pregnant".

Other than being clipped or abstinence, NO form of birth control is 100%.

A little strange opinion coming from a young woman ...

Since you are home schooled you are limited to the knowledge your "teachers" want you to have, read up on "quickening" and abortion on your own using Internet.

"Abortion" has been around forever, it wasn't that big of a deal long ago, women went to a "doctor" and got drugs to end the pregnancy.
