Why does someone's "wantedness" change the respect and protection we give them under the law? To learn more about me and my work with Justice for All click on the following link: http://www.jfaweb.org/staff/trent/donate.html

  • and how is this hard to understand?

    abortion: a woman deciding for herself to end the unwanted fetus inside her body because she has a right not to be pregnant whenever she chooses= legal.

    fetal homicide: somebody else not using the woman's permission to end her WANTED FETUS' LIFE = illegal.

  • @FREEAMERICANOW69 - So you're saying a person's wantedness should determine whether it is right or wrong to kill them? Should a woman be allowed to kill her two-year old if she doesn't want him anymore? If not, then why do unwanted two-year olds have a right-to-life but not unwanted fetuses?

  • How exactly can one find reason in two sets of individuals which are exactly the same yet treated in two wildly different ways by the law and their own next of kin?

    As an atheist, I'm a fan of all things logical and secular. There is no reason whatsoever to abortion.

  • Did you miss the point of the video? It's premise is the irrationality of abortion supporters and the schizophrenic laws we currently have. Abortion opponents want to stop discrimination and dehumanization of certain individuals based on wantedness, and you went off on some rant about mysticism and the supernatural. I'm just trying to get you to make sense.

  • @trhorn100 A fetus is not the same as a two-year old baby. And in some countries it is only legal if the pregnancy is a product of rape, incest or causes danger to mother's or baby's health.

    By your logic two people should not use protection since they are killing potential babies.

  • @FREEAMERICANOW69 your cruel suicide promoting words represent the truth of your perspective. don't tell yourself you are righteous

  • @P

    like, omg, U don't have to respond because U don't like my comment and U can't prove it wrong, gawd.

    so stop worrying me because what i do is none of your goddamn business and U can't stop be from doing something that's LEGAL and constitutional. telling the fact that others' morality against abortion is moot to a woman's will, civil/ constitutional right to have one is my objective...deal with it or commit sucide, which shouldn't be hard for u, since U was planning on doing anyway.

  • @FREEAMERICANOW69 you again, omg shut up, go do something with your life. go right a song about how it's "ok" to have an abortion, your voice will be stronger there. Im writing a pro-life song because i know picking on people like you is just exercise for my ability to display the truth. but your up trolling on every lovely video i see, i can't imagine how many others you've ran your fingers on

  • Really enjoyed you video informative. When you have time come visit my channel!

  • @trhorn100 Actually I think this person is saying that if a human is living inside your body, you can determine whether you want them there or not. Your fetus is your property as long as it's inside you. Contrariwise, if you kill someone living independently of you, say a baby, that is murder. Or if you kill a pregnant woman, that is two counts of murder since the woman and the fetus are not part or your person.

  • MY body= MY decision

    Women have the same right as men, including the one to do what they want with their body.

    If I was pregnant and forced to keep the baby, I would: be forced to stop my career at least for some time, vomit every morning for a period of a few months. I may die because of it. I may not be economically and mentally able to raise it. That would result with me wanting it even less.

    And don't forget: an unwanted child grows into an angry or very sad adult most of the time.

  • Simple question- can a fetus be adopted like a born child can, or is it a permanent 9 motnhs until birth, lol? Also, rape is not wanted, but lethal force(killing) ir legally, morally okay to prevent it. Oh, rape does not kill, by the way- it's just something unpleasant- make the bitch deal w/ it- she shouldn't have worn that short skirt, lol- it's her fault. If it's that bad, she can go get therapy alter, lol- if the stress doesn't kill her/make her suicide. Ha!
