No, I'm opposed to it period, but I'm NOT for the government having that kind of control over such personal decisions. But then. If they were, maybe we wouldn't have to be making the decision because it wouldn't be an option.

You see the slippery slope, though... and why it is such a hot issue. In my mind, it's murder. Period. I'm politcally in favor of personal responsibility and accountability.

As you've admirably stated, there is no middle ground. My question is why you can't choose a side.

If it is a legitimate "decision," then any choice is legitimate, but if one of the possible decisions is murder, how is it a legitimate choice for the individual?
