Yes, I’m going there, because the whole “issue” pisses me off no end. Otherwise intelligent women are blah, blah, blah-ing about “my body, my choice.”
Yep, your choice. To be made BEFORE YOU HAVE SEX. Yes, birth control can fail—abstinence will never fail. Very, very few women, relatively speaking, become pregnant from rape or incest. Not that it can’t happen, but statistically, it’s rare.
Even so, why should an innocent child suffer? Why compound the crime of rape or incest with murder?
Oh, wait—you say it’s just a clump of cells? A “fetus.”
Do you even know what that word means?
From Webster: a human being or animal in the later stages of development before it is born; a developing human.
It’s so not like removing a part of your own body, a tumor, a mole, whatever. It’s a removing a LIFE.
Sex is fun, enjoyable, a blast, whatever you want to call it—but it is NOT a right. You are not entitled to have sex. Period.
It’s a risk you take that you may end up pregnant—assuming you are a woman having sex with a man. It’s a FACT, people. There’s a chance, no matter how remote. So act accordingly. Like a responsible adult, instead of with a whiny me, me, me attitude.
Here’s another fun fact: Roe vs. Wade was a farce. The girl claimed she was raped. BAM! Abortion on demand. Guess what? She wasn’t. She later retracted the whole story. You have an entire country applauding abortion because one woman said she was raped. And was not. Let that sink in.
And no, I won’t stop. I won’t say, “Well, *I* won’t have one, but if you do, it’s okay.”
It’s not okay. It’s not.
Many of you sob over lost and abandoned and abused puppies and kittens. WTF? Are human babies less valuable? Geez, get your head examined.
As for that bullshit about “Republicans want to save babies, but not feed them,” you are full of it. Republicans do NOT want children to starve or live in poverty, but they DO want their own freakin’ parents to step up and take care of those children.
Unfortunately, you can’t legislate people into being adults, just like you can’t legislate people into being smart.
Case. In. Point.
Each of us has a right to our personal ethical, medical and religious views on this subject. Basically, what I think and believe what you think and believe is irrelevant to the individual who thinks and believes something else and needs an abortion. That’s the bottom line. It’s a personal matter and government has no place in that decision.

I agree that it’s a personal matter, and I even think the government should stay out of it. But that means ENTIRELY stay out of it, including funding of Planned Parenthood and others who perform abortions. Of course, we all know that the gov is involved up to its eyeballs in the health insurance industry, so why not go all the way, right? [heavy sarcasm on the last part of that last sentence]
But I draw the line at saying abortion is okay – regardless of what someone thinks she “needs.” It’s the taking of a human life, plain and simple, and that’s wrong.

Robin, I agree with you 100%. Thank you for stating it – I, to, am sick of all of the above. It is murder – no way around it.
