@KnightOwl2006 I'm as "pro abortion" as I am "pro childbearing." I am for a woman's right to choose--whether that is abortion or giving birth. No matter which she chooses, I support her decision. Why? Because that decision is hers. Not mine. It will never be mine.

@happyboutlife1 Post-abortion syndrome is denied to be a legitimate condition by all reputable psychology sources. Besides that, a lot of women regret their decision BECAUSE OF YOUR SIDE. You do realize that anti-choicers spread lies and shame, to MAKE women feel regret and depression because of all the abuse they take after having an abortion they would've been fine with otherwise, right?

@Sueezee1 You really need to adjust your attitude. You anger will lead you nowhere. You have the choice to choose your anger or your maturity. Which one do you choose?

Bernard Nathanson, co founder of NARAL Pro-Choice America said: "When we first founded NARAL, we made it sound like women were dieing by the thousands from illegal abortions. By the time of Roe v Wade, we told the court that thousands of women died from illegal abortions when the actual numbers were 200-300 women died from illegal abortions."

If NARAL covered that up then, what are they covering up now? Think about it.

@Sueezee1 said: "You need to learn who to be pissed at and not look stupid."

Really. Are you serious? Thank you for that educated answer. I can tell it really took you a long time to figure that out didn't it Sueezee? Here's a little fyi Sueezee. Some Planned Parenthood clinics don't perform abortions. They refer their patients to a nearby abortion clinic and some Planned Parenthood clinics do perform abortions @ the Planned Parenthood clinic depending if the state will allow them to.

@mjt19741 says: Murder is ending someone's life after they are born.

 hahahahahah..OMG.

@mjt19741 says: "PLANNED" Parenthood. They have everything already PLANNED for you and strongly encourage women to have an abortion.

~~~~~~~~~~~~ hahaha you uneducated dork. in 2010 PP performed 332,278 abortions. Whose doing the other 667,000? You need to learn who to be pissed at and not look stupid....

[mjt19741]

Notice how Planned Parenthood is called "PLANNED" Parenthood. They have everything already PLANNED for you and strongly encourage women to have an abortion. That is why they call it PLANNED Parenthood and not UnPlanned Parenthood.

As long as Planned Parenthood is still around, Naral will never admit they encourage women into having abortions.

Before you have at least a heart beat, you aren't considered alive, just as after you have at most a heart beat, you aren't considered alive. A pre-4-week embryo should be treated with the same ethics as a brain dead patient; neither are truly alive, and may be terminated. However, once that embryo has that beating heart, with the exception of anencephaly, it is UNETHICAL to abort it, as it has the one rudimentary function by which we consider grown people to not truly be dead. Brain activity.

ABORTION=MURDER

Murder is ending someone's life after they are born.

Abortion is ending a fetus's life before they are born.

There is no difference between abortion and murder. Therefore abortion is equivilent to murder.

Wow. This is sad.

I challenge anyone to tell me why pro-choice is right. Message me.
