It seems he also didn't report to the authorities when really young women (10, 13) were raped by family members.

None of that bothers our liberal friends. All they care about is ensuring abortion is legal so they can use it as birth control. They won't admit it, but it's true.

While we're at it, let's ban also knives, scissors, baseball sticks, hammers, axe, chain saw,... because of criminals who use these tools.

I am a liberal. I am pro choice. It looks to me like the pro life movement has a huge overlap with: people who claim to care about children with people who stand by the church while their children are raped by their religious leaders. Where's the boot up the ass here? Where's the revolution when you find out what's been going on?...is all I see is the conservative viewpoint that since it has always happened it should be allowed to keep happening. Oh, we can't progress.....that's a dirty word.

I don't feel like typing it out again so I'm going to quote myself from another thread.

Then a person gets to the risk/reward stage where you have to figure out if banning trucks so someone can't use them to kill people outweighs the value lost in everyone being able to use them and the analogy goes to ****.

I don't know anyone who's says: I'm OK with priests raping children.
I do know a lot of people who say: Abortion is wonderful.

I don't know anyone that says: I'm OK with murdering babies. Yet here we are.

Does that include mosques and synagogues? I guess we could forget Hollywood actors/directors/producers.

Just imagine if we add to this: abortion need more diversity. I wonder what'll be the reactions?

Anyone who wants no restrictions on abortion is OK with murdering babies.

Babies 22 weeks in the womb can survive outside the womb.

Anyone who believe doing an abortion to save the mother's life rather than delivering the child via c-section to save BOTH is OK with murdering babies.

And there are plenty of people who believe that abortions in both circumstances are perfectly ok and between a "women and her doctor".

Some feel good stories for your religious zealot conservative friends:

What about the murderous attacks on the unborn with a hatchet no less? Do you give a sh*t?

That's the main problem I encounter when I try to talk to cons on this issue. Everyone else is doing it; why can't we? You deflect and finger point instead of protecting your own children. Zero personal responsibility.
