Questions for Pro-Lifers at HuffPo July 31, 2007 Jill I put up an expanded version of the earlier Question for Pro-Lifers piece at HuffPo. Check it out. I look forward to seeing if it gets any comments beyond “It’s about the babies!”
So far some comments, but all hot air and pompous indignation. What a fucking surprise. Good for you Jill; I love to see hypocrits squirming in the full light of reason.
Ask them WHAT THEY INTEND TO DO for the babies, universal health care???? growf! I wish they really were pro-life, but they are actually pro-pregnancy-for-everybody, which is hardly the same thing.
I laughed, I cried. My favorite part was “What about identical twins, who at the moment of fertilization are one person but days later become two?”. Is it also worth asking what the punishment should be for a woman who travels to another state to obtain an abortion? And for a woman who obtains an abortion abroad, and then returns home?
I see no one has actually answered the question yet, including the pro-life nut. What a freaking surprise.
It’s especially hilarious that the pro-life troll can, you know, troll, but can’t provide an answer to any of the questions. *guffaw*
I’m pro-abortion but I always saw the anti-abortion people as kinda like animal rights activists. They just want to protect a life. Now this life may be essentially human, just like stealing a candy bar is essentially the same as stealing a car…but essence isn’t everything so you wouldn’t get as harsh a sentence as you would for killing a post-born human.
And for a woman who obtains an abortion abroad, and then returns home? I don’t know…should public stupidity be a crime? Any woman who would come back to a country she had to flee in order to get the right to control what happened to her own body isn’t acting in the smartest way…And in a totally unrelated subject, I wonder why Ireland is having such trouble getting people to move or move back there…
And what do the anti-choicers actually say? Check it out : http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uk6t_tdOkwo
Ha! The pro-forced pregnancy person actually literally said “It’s about the babeeezz!” – Vanessa Even better/worse, he reiterates it later as: “It has nothing to do with women’s rights. That is the liberal mantra, smoke screen that has been used for years. It is about the baby!” And there we have it, straight from the horse’s ass (sic).
I love the term “pro-forced pregnancy”. How appropriate. And how expected that the pro-forced pregnancy’ers have little to no response.
