Call it what you will but you said I was stupid and crazy because my feelings about abortion are different than yours. The odd thing is, we basically agree. You claim you believe that women only make the choice to kill their unborn for medical emergencies or some other type of tragedy. I wish that were true. And mabye from your personal experience you believe all women are that way. But, women can be nasty creatures, just like men.
After 35 plus years of this argument, though, I know that them that will kill will kill no matter what I think or say. I know that they will fight me to my death to keep their right to kill their unborn. Those same people will cry that it is wrong to put to death people who were allowed to be born who killed other people who were allowed to be born. Those same people will demand I be put to death if I am ever unfortunate to be on a life support device and unable to speak for myself.
Sadly, people have throughout the history of mankind murdered their children for various reasons. While people are better now at murdering children before they are born, people certainly haven't evolved one little bit in respect for the right to life for others.
How have I forced you to embrace my beliefs?
As a conservative, you push to pass laws based on your beliefs that remove peoples freedom of choice.
No - the basic argument is whether abortion is murder and whether women who have abortions do so for reasons other than as a method of birth control. You want to make it about "pro-choice" and "free will" - but those are catch phrases that only apply when justifying abortion for any reason. What you mean by "pro-choice" is to choose to have an abortion and "free will" means without going to jail for murder.Of course I read your posts but they don't change the basic argument. Which, simply put, is my choice doesn't LIMIT your choice. You still have the ability to do or not do what you believe is right for you. But you have no right to force your choice on others when it takes away free will.
It is still your god. I haven't brought my god into this argument. My god doesn't care what you or anyone else does.And god also gave us the ability to devise neat ways to kill each other. We do it all the time when we go to war or execute criminals. Now let me guess, it was my god that did that. You conservatives just like to embrace a good thing when you see it.
Make your god exempt from that argument.
My god doesn't care what you or anyone else does.
I'm pretty nonpartisan, but I tend to be OK with firing police officials who tase their 10-year-old stepchildren.It also turns out the Taser incident is one of those things that the nephew BEGGED Wooten to do to him. Fucked up as it was (and wrong) it's being painted in a different way than the actual event that took place.

Saw stupid Cybil Shepherd on TV - "No one has asked the question - did she [Bristol Palin] have the choice to have an abortion?" Cybil didn't ask - "did she have the choice to give her baby up for adoption?" Or, "did she choose to allow her child to be born?" No. Just "did she have the choice of abortion?"
Furthermore, as far as what is widely known at this point, Bristol Palin is not in danger of losing her life by carrying her baby to term. It even appears she is from a financially well off family, she is not black or some other ethnic minority, she was not raped or the baby the result of incest. Plus, she was raised in a family that values life - even when it isn't convenient - as a core belief. Why would it be surprising she wouldn't want an abortion? Shouldn't that be a part of "pro-choice?"
