I support a woman's right to choose no matter what. She's the one raising the baby, not me and not you.
Would I abort a foetus just because it carried a gay gene? Not a chance.
You cannot support the rights for any group unless if you also support the right to life. If they found a gay gene, and people started aborting all babies who had it, there would be no gay people left and you would have supported it. Its essentially genocide (which is what abortion is).

You can't claim to be supportive of gay rights by supporting their extinction.

So you are saying that you know a baby is a baby but you support the murder of it anyway? Or do you believe that it's not a baby at all, dehumanizing a person makes it easier to carry out injustice.

Another discussion in which the intent seems to bait, troll and circulate hate.

All you guys have done is deflect and avoid the question. Trying to dismiss this as a troll topic just proves my point.

I haven't said anything as to my opinion. I just said a persons medical decisions are their own, as our decisions are our own.

You have this idea of what people who disagree with you are like and are assigning those beliefs to me. You are fighting against demons that exist only in your head instead of listening to those around you. I don't see why you aren't just replying those in your mind instead of starting arguments with others. You stand more of a chance of winning the ones you have with yourself.

That's because it's a really stupid question.
