care to contribute something other than silly, snarky comments to this thread or is that all you can do?
thats just an early stage in a human beings development. if you kill it, you are murdering a human being. better?

you can't say I know nothing about pregnancy just because I have never been pregnant, look at all the men delivering babies and performing abortions, do they to know nothing about pregnancy just because they haven't been pregnant like you have? How is simply having an opinion, just as you do, make me close minded and judgmental? That is not fair...you say it is your choice to end the babies life, I say the baby has the right to live just as much as it would in the crib. Resorting to calling me close-minded and judgmental just because I do not think like you do is some what of an oxymoron.

I've not read anything from anyone here that indicated having an abortion 'didn't bother them'. Not having regrets about it is not the same as it 'not bothering' them.

Fine, I should have said ignorant, in that your supposed knowledge was not based on facts.

Whether or not you believe abortion should be legal or not, that fact is indisputable. At the very least, the baby being killed should have the dignity of being treated as a person before its life is ended.
If, as was the case with me, the abortion takes place less than half-way through the first trimester, an ultrasound is totally useless.

So you just talk about it with other friends behind their backs? That's pretty obnoxious.

You cannot get an elective hysterectomy for birth control purposes.
Not their pregnancies, I have discussions of pro-life verses pro-choice with other friends, I know they felt bad because they cried to me after wards, however I would not want to tell them while they are crying to me that they felt bad for aborting their baby that 'yea I'm pro-life I don't think you should have done that' what purpose would that have served?
