Anti-abortion is all well and good, but it is not based on a constitutional principle, it is an opinion. The 2nd amendment is NOT an opinion, it is a constitutional fact, and if your principles do not include standing up for the constitution and a spelled out right, then you have NO right to be a political party!!

Well, abortion is not an opinion so much as it's murder of a person. I'm not sure you can order the right to life with the right to bear arms; they're both rights that can't be infringed.

Again, the murder phrase is an opinion, a person is someone that can survive on thier own. A fetus cannot survive on it's own, therefore legally, it is NOT a person. Therefore it is NOT murder.

The above is an opinion, it is debatable, you're opinion is that that fetus is a person, therefore it is murder. THEREFORE, because it is debatable, it is an opinion.

The 2nd amendment is NOT an opinion, it is a constitutional FACT!! it is NOT debatable, there is no room for political compromise, the constitution is not to be given up for political correctness or compromise. If you compromise on the constitution, then it isn't worth the paper it's written on.

The constitution is the mainstay of this country, if it is compromised, then the person who compromised it is a traitor, and cannot be trusted. There is a reason that public officials take an oath uphold the constitution.
