"Open your mouth for the speechless, In the cause of all who are appointed to die." - Proverbs 31:8

"And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather expose them." - Ephesians 5:11

Anti-choice people want to mandate death to a different egg and pretend they're god. They also want to give preferrential rights to a potential future person and make a full grown woman a second class citizen, a procreation slave.

@okefixico Hate me. I'm sorry that I don't support legislation that forces women to have children then stops doing jack shit once the kid's out of the womb.

@okefixico Yes, but if people start their lives at conception, then half of all people die in wombs, making the womb the most dangerous place in the world to be in. Hence, don't call it "the safety of their mother's womb", or else your argument disappears in a puff of logic. You should give people like me a chance to not be called a freak and not be thought as killers and maimers when I have not done either of the two. You deny a life every time you refuse to have unprotected sex, you hypocrite.

@ih8faggots10000 Your a horrible person wanna know how I know? your username.

I voted no :)

[okefixico]

@iateyourgranny And 100% of people born will die eventually. You freaks are denying someone a chance at life just to satisfy your desires to kill and maim. I hate you all.

nobody has there right to force their own morals on someone else. pro-choice.

[rollsthepaul]

Abortion is a choice that should be used sparingly. Many people want to see everything as black or white, when we live in a grey world. Moving to give women ways to avoid pregnancy, is the best choice. In the meantime, the mother should be the one to decide and the state should provide a safe abortion. This is not a perfect solution but it is about the best we are going to get.
