I guess you missed being a teenager. Band camp had at least one chaperone per 5 people. As if that stopped anything.

I wonder how many of these chaperones have opened their home to a foster child in need of stability? Obviously they have the means to care for children in need, and if they are so in support of the rights and dignity of children then surely every last one has done their part. Right?

Oh.. wait.

Tens of thousands participated in this year's march.

The New York Times headline? "Hundreds Brave Snow at March for Life in Washington"

Yeah, certainly no bias there...

Yes, New York Times is very biased. They never report correctly on the Marches. They never show all the people who show up since they are against pro-life.

A pro-abortion poster....and totally ignored by the OP. Why aren't you condemning someone who is calling for abortions, Jenelle? You routinely call out people who are pro choice. If you are truly pro-life....why have you ignored someone who ENCOURAGES abortions?

When used properly, contraception is highly effective.

Besides, a month old fetus is basically a tadpole. I don't see the big problem with aborting a tadpole.

No we are not frogs or worms, we are human from the moment of conception with all the DNA we ever need.

We could prevent abortions with better family planning and contraception, but the leaders of that moment seem to only want to stop abortion after the fact.



Well, the child, once conceived, is either a person or it`s not, so finding common ground with people who are looking for any excuse to justify what we all know is the intentional killing of a child isn`t constructive.










The sad fact is many women consider abortion to be an alternative to contraceptives and won`t bother with highly effective barrier methods or oral contraceptives and they definitely won`t use a rubber,

This isnt even about compromise, the objective is less abortions, or none if you will.

Contraception is indeed the solution to lower the number because even if the pro life movement somehow found a way to outlaw abortions, they would still happen and then their goal would be the same as those on who believe the same as me.

As for the second part of your post, that is ludicrous, You are arguing that someone would rather pay 2 or 3 thousand dollars to have an abortion rather than buy a 3 dollar condom, or take birth control pills. I have yet to meet that women


Further more, lets stop blaming women because a man doesnt use condoms/pull out. It isnt like she impregnates herself.
