| Pro-Choice vs. Pro-Life: My views on ABORTION |
| Before we delve into this seeminglessly never-ending arguement, let me say right-off-the-bat that I'm 100% PRO CHOICE. although I've heard both sides of this debate, I never could be, and never will be, convinced otherwise. In fact, very little in this world is more sickening to me than a large horde of bantering idiots marching in front of Planned Parenthood or an Abortion Clinic, carrying signs that depict a woman's deformed uterus or an aborted child. Hardcore Catholic Republicans want nothing more in this world than to see Abortion, this so-called "reason-less" end of human life, to cease it's happenings. Why? Because it is, as Pro-Lifer's put it, "a waste of human life," and "murder." Okay Pro-Life People, let's chat. If a woman is raped and gets pregnant, why should she be forced to carry and eventually give birth to a child she wouldn't be able to love and care for? What gives a drug addict the right to raise a child, only to turn him or her into a future addict and felon? What if the mother is by far too young to handle the maturity necessary to completely raise and nurture a baby into an adult, especially when the mother is not an adult herself? And what if the mother does not obtain the financial security appropriate for raising the child? Should that kid have to grow up digging through dumpsters for something to eat, and sleep in an alley under an awning for shelter from nature and the elements? The answer to all of these questions is no, plain and simple. Sometimes the only alternative for avoiding such fates is abortion, and by taking that right away from someone, you would be taking away their right to life, to surviving in a decent way. This doesn't mean I support all abortions. Some girls get abortions frequently, and I believe these people should have learned the first time. If a girl gets pregnant once without intent, it should be more than enough to teach her several lessons about contreception and being careful. If a girl/ woman can't figure out that sex=pregnancy=little kids after her first abortion, she should NEVER have the right to give birth to children, because no one that stupid should have the right to populate this planet. But that's the only case in which I would disagree with abortions, for now anyway. Right. Back to bashing protesters. What the hell gives you self-righteous peices of poop the right to violently thrash out against innocent people who made mistakes in life, or worse yet, to bomb or otherwise kill someone to show your meaningless resolve? Remember when the Olympics were held in Atlanta? Many people can remember when a bomb was set off in an abortion clinic only a few blocks away. After the first few initial moments of the explosion, the police were under the assumption that it was a terrorist attack against the summer games, but soon found out otherwise. I think a few doctors and patients were killed or wounded... I could be wrong, but STILL, that was an attempt to end lives, was it not? How much of a hypocrite can you be, to whine and moan that Abortion is evil and wrong, only to attempt to prove how right you are by killing people? I can also think of several incidents where someone marked an Abortionist for death, and a few doctors were slain in the hopes that the government would make abortion illegal. Also, it's common for someone who is trying to get an abortion to be barred from the clinic by pro-life morons, and in a few occaisions, even fall under attack by them. That's great: Make the girl feel even worse by screaming stuff like "Baby Killer" in her face and throwing things at her. Yeah. Well, it might not keep her from getting an abortion, but it will make her and many other people dislike you and want you to suffer a whole bunch. All-in-all, to make a long rant short, I can't stand Pro-Life people. They've proven time and time again just how ignorant and selfish a human can be. If a woman can't have the right to make choices which could better her own life, why the hell would she want to live in this country? And yes, if a Federal law is ever passed, in the unlikely event that should be, I plan to leave this country forever... I refuse to live in a place that boasts "Land of the free" and has the nerve to take freedom right out of our hands. -Matt Rock |
