Re: “Pro-Choice Rally Turns Raucous”
To all those who are so vehemently against abortion, please do not open your mouths and tell me you are "pro-life" when all you really are is "pro-fetus" Once that baby is born you have no interest in it's welfare or upbringing.
What does it matter if the child is born crack addicted, or HIV positive? As long as it's born.
What does it matter if the child is born to a teen mother who got pregnant accidentally because she couldn't access birth control and can not take care of this child. It could be neglected or or abused or thrown into the tumultuous and torturous world of foster care. bounced around with no love, support and trust in it's life. But it's okay if it suffers it's entire life...as long as it's born.
What does it matter if a woman with health issues (like heart problems for example) accidentally gets pregnant and the growing fetus poses a real threat to her life? If abortion is made illegal, do we wait until the fetus miscarries or the mother dies? Really?
If you guys want these babies born so badly, then you step up and look after them. If not, shut your mouth and stop telling me or any other woman what we can and can't do with our bodies. You are not God and have NO right to judge.
