WTF?
yeah...those babies NEEDED killin'! Idiot.
Babies concieved through rape are not killed for the crimnes of the father, they are killed to keep "alive" the death industry of the left. That movement is more impoortant to them than any human life.
What does the term Z-O-T mean?
I do not support abortion in the case of rape, or incest. The only time I have even tepid support for it is if it is a medical certainty that both the mother and child will not survive child birth.
Incidentally, there are significant numbers of pro-lifers who support an exception for rape or incest, so your premise is false.
Did you stop to think that this issue has also been responsible for the growth of the GOP in recent years? Have you seen what has happened in the South? In the Congress? Maybe you should pay attention before sitting down to write expansive political essays.
"I also cannot support making women carry a baby created by a rape or a teenager from an incest situation"
So the worth of the baby depends on whether the mother wants it or not?
That seems to be the whole crux of the pro abortion crowd...that the baby is worth everything if the mother wants it and deserves all the rights we have....or is worth nothing if the mother does not want it...as if it was an appendage of the mother like a liver or kidney.
draconian abortion laws needs to be abandoned
Yeah, great idea Slick! Eight year olds should be able to abort their fetus'.......Lord knows it is important to save their mother's boyfriend. I agree their should be no parental notification laws or age limits imposed on abortion. What a foolish statement!
The real issue is whether the fetus is cogniscent. Personally I do not recognize the right to life of an embryo. A fertilized egg isn't thinking or feeling any sort of pain that we would identify with. The vast majority of them don't implant in the uterus anyway and no one is the wiser. On the other hand an unborn child of 7 or more months definately does have a right to life and it doesn't matter whether it was the product of rape or not it still deserves to live.
Some little girl gets to carry her father's daughter/granddaughter or her big brother's little bother/nephew to term?
Sorry, not buying that one.
Why not one for you, nunc pro tunc, since you have no right to life?
Better dead than poor?
Huh?
No. In states where abortion was illegal, people would think twice before hopping in the sack, or the ones who choose to go that route would make darn sure they had contraception around.
The vast majority of abortions are a means of birth control for irresponsible, immoral people.
That doesn't make it necessary. Some kind of decision is necessary in this situation - but an abortion is not necessary.
I also cannot support making women carry a baby created by a rape or a teenager from an incest situation.
The whole incest exception is ridiculous.
Either the incest was consensual or it wasn't.
If it wasn't then it was rape.
I agree that carrying a rape to term would be extremely hard (although I have met women who have done so, and they are glad that they did - that they brought good out of evil), but murdering a kid because his father is evil is morally indefensible.
By that logic you could be called pro rape or pro incest. The fetus was not conceived by any choice of the mother, not in some drunken one night stand or with some short term guy but by violence and abomination.
