Yeah, I realize it can get heated. I personally dispise the concept of abortion, and I know where I stand on it:
"If it were my choice, then i would say "no" to abortion"
The big difference though is that I wil not force my "no" onto a womans womb. even if it was my unborn son in her womb, and I opposed her having an abortion 100%, in no way should my voice trump her right to do as she wills with her womb.
thankfully, I do not have a womb, so I will never have to know the heartache and misery and the mix of emotions that come when deciding to end your pregnancy alone...much less the pressure from anti-abortion activists or people suggesting that pregnant women should have to go to court in order to get permission to have an abortion...as if the decision wasnt already hard enough, now they want tyrants in black robes making a decision that only the individual woman should make.
That is why I say "thats low".
Might as well throw tomatoes at her and call her a whore, like some of those people who picket planned parenthood. these people are so anti-abortion they dont even care if it is a legitimate "save the life of a mother" procedure. they just start with the judgements. Ive seen videos of it before, it saddens me.
