If you think abortions should be legal don’t pretend that you are pro life.

Abortion is either legal or illegal.

Everyone says, “Trump is a shoe in....” Mr. Trump has yet to gain my respect. Most people could care less what I think, and that’s okay. And if he is the nominee, which looks probable, I will vote for him. But he still has to earn my respect.

Then abortion will always remain legal, because no one has the balls to say otherwise.

Game over.

Enjoy.

So much for Cruz being the CONSERVATIVE in the race - defending abortion.

Can’t say I’m surprised - after all the BIG MONEY would rather not discuss the issue at all. Thankfully Trump, once again, brought it forward.

The difference between knowing that, at some level, it is true that a woman getting an abortion illegally may be subject to penalties, and vocalizing “women could be punished” is the gap between a skilled candidate and Donald Trump.

Maybe, but it’s semantics. Everyone here on FR is all uppity about principles. Trump stated the logical principle.

So Cruz thinks it’s OK to murder babies?

I presume you mean Catholic when you say "papist." Is that necessary?

Catholics own the prolife issue by and large, but do work side by side with great faithful prolife Christians from other denominations.

To your main point: yes, engagement in illegal activity must be punished by law, by all concerned.

They are excommunicated by the Catholic Church unless they seek forgiveness for that murder.

Makes you wonder if Cruz would do anything with illegals coming into the country. Cruz doesn’t think state or federal laws matter I am shocked at pro-lifers too.

I should ask you the same question.

You are the one defending a pro choice position in a conservative forum.

So you think abortions should be legal?

By the way, Trump never said that the women should be jailed. Punished does not mean jailed. It could be a fine or community service.
