Why is it that The Right is described as anti-choice when The Left is talking about abortion? But The Left is not regarded as anti-choice when they talk about gun control? When The Left talks about saving just one life by doing things like banning guns, why doesnt that logic apply to late term, partial birth, or any abortion?
Have you ever seen an Intact Dialation and Extraction procedure? There no denying that what the doctor is doing is killing a viable human life.
Let me be clear on this, I believe an abortion, in 99% of cases, is a disgusting and vile act. I believe that more times than not, abortion is simply a method of last resort at birth control. I believe that the same logic a woman uses to kill her child in her womb, could be extrapolated into killing a child, or an adult, at any age. I believe that if a person is capable of the reasoning required to destroy the potential of a human life at one stage of development, they possess the same process of reasoning required to destroy life at any stage. I believe this, because in my belief, there is no difference between the living potential of the fetus or that of the born child. But those are my beliefs.
Fortunately for the supporters of Roe v. Wade, I also believe that my beliefs should not dictate the choices of others.
That being said, I am in favor of a womans right to do what she thinks is right with her body. But why does the pro-choice Left change their logic completely when they turn their attention to gun control measures? The apparent argument is that a woman does not affect anyone but herself when she decides to have an abortion.
