My own opinion on abortion is that there should be no "legal"
abortion. However, those who claim to be "pro-choice" have an absolute
obligation to join pro-life people in calling for those laws, within
the Roe v Wade context, that reduce the incidence of women being
deceived into making choices that are wrong for them. Every choice for
abortion that the woman honestly regrets, and would decide differently
if she could, is a blow to the continued existence of "choice" which
every "pro-choice" person must want prevented.

An interesting article from:

AgapePress Christian News Service
"AgapePress News Summary"
Jody Brown, Editor
P.O. Drawer 2440
Tupelo, MS 38801
URL: http://www.agapepress.org

...An advocate for the unborn says the State of Mississippi has seen a
decrease in the number of babies dying at the hands of abortionists.
Terry Herring, with the group Choose Life, says pro-life supporters
are excited about a number of factors that have contributed to saving
the lives of babies in Mississippi. She says there has been a drop
from about 8,000 abortions in 1991 to 3,500 in the year 2000. Herring
believes these changes are due to new laws addressing parental
consent, informed consent, and a 24-hour waiting period. In addition,
there are abortion clinics that are now closed in the Magnolia State.
Herring adds that last year the state passed a law banning the
University Medical Center in Jackson from performing abortions, except
in very rare and extreme cases.

###[end of excerpt]

Since Roe v Wade is still fully in force in Mississippi, legalizing
every abortion regardless of any reason not to have one, considering
only a woman's choice, it looks like Mississippi has provided a good
pattern for the nation to follow. The U. S. Congress should rush to
make these Mississippi laws into national laws. Performing medical
procedures in the absence of informed consent is medical malpractice
for which abortionists should lose lawsuits and licenses to practice.

Parental Consent : a minor child pregnant has the greatest conceivable
need for her parents' support. Barring the cases for which judicial
by-pass has been provided in Mississippi, a parent should make the
decision on behalf of a minor child, whether an abortion is warranted.
The only alternative is to make some other adult responsible for this
decision, since a minor _cannot_ make a legal decision of such
consequence. The most central element of informed consent is missing
when a minor undergoes abortion without the parents' consent. If a
sound reason exists to ignore the parents' role as legal guardians for
the child, let a court confirm such a reason.

Informed Consent: Every woman contemplating abortion must get full
information about the procedure, especially including the procedure's
likely negative effects on her physical and mental health. She also
must get full information (preferably including a real-time image) on
the current developmental level of the prenatal child she contemplates
paying an abortionist to kill. Justice requires this. The failure to
get this information to the woman contemplating abortion is criminal
medical malpractice. The common failure of abortionists to provide
sufficient factual information - they usually provide lies and
misinformation instead - should be the basis of malpractice lawsuits
that almost every woman with a history of abortion could win.

It seems clear that these measures actually enhance women's right to
choose by making more likely a mature and fully informed choice, which
will please everyone except the radical abortion advocates. Express
your support for meaningful choice on abortion nationally by voting
for the U. S. senators and representatives who will work to pass these
wholesome laws.

Tom Daschle is bottling up in committee and preventing floor votes in
the U. S. Senate on legislation like this for our nation. Let's wake
him up or get him out of the way - now.

When are you going to stop accusing people of being control freaks who are
merely seeking to protect the lives of human beings?
And when are you going to call the Pro-Choicers immoral control freaks who
need to control a woman's sexuality?

When are you going to protect human beings instead of non-human beings?

When are you going to protect all children rather than just the ones you
choose to protect?

By wanting the woman to have the *legal* choice of whether to end or
continue her pregnancy? Exactly how is that preventing a woman making an
informed choice?

You are the one who wishes to remove one of the legal options... what is
your excuse for attempting to CONTROL women by advocating forcing them
to either break the law or continue their pregnancies?

What does that have to do with sexuality? This person's opinion has nothing
to do with control! The beleif about abortion that drives most
anti-abortionists is that abortion takes away the life of a child (a human
being), therefore they beleive the child's mother should not be aloud to
make the decision to destroy (murder, kill) that living child. By saying
such a statement, you are either avoiding the real reasoning of the
anti-abortionist either because it threatens your view or because you are
ignorant of the argument. Either way, making such a statement is quite a
statement about your own opinions.

Pat, I suggest you go back a few articles to the origin of this thread. The
point of the original post was that women should be better informed of their
options AND of the reprecussions of each option. Regardless of your stance,
pro-choice or life, the original author believes you should agree with that
much. The only controvercial opinion he (the first author) expressed, that
some people might not agree with, was that this would lead to a reduction in
pregnancies.

Answering a question with another question is improper dialogue. Pat posed a
question that called you on the floor, and you neglected to answer it, but
instead attempted to distort her words to corner her into the answer you
wanted. Nothing but a strawman.

Currently, women that make the initial choice to meet with a doctor to have
an abortion *ARE* informed. They are told their options: carrying to term
and then adoption or keeping the baby versus abortion. This is before the
procedure. The procedure and its risks are also discussed.

Regardless of what lies your ilk continue to promote, the women that opt for
an abortion have the very information that you are speaking of offering.

As for the adoption option: yes, there are lots of families waiting to adopt
a child, so long as it is a healthy, newborn, white baby. Figuratively
speaking, I don't see anyone standing in line to adopt a crack-addicted
black baby, or an inner-city, mexican five-year-old.

If you worthless fuckwads truly cared about the well-being of the child
rather than forcing your religion-based "punishment" on the mother, you
would devote your energies to altering the adoption laws to make it easier
on the mother and adoptive family to go through with an adoption. If you
really gave a shit, you would work hard to make *adoption* the preferred
choice with methods that have nothing to do with force.

Once you do that, then most abortions would likely never take place, and you
would have accomplished your goal without being a self-righteous control
freak.

I know these things because I was part of the decision where each was
chosen: one abortion, one adoption. The adoption was a legal pain in the
ass.

The more appropriate question is, why do you want to KILL these human beings

Obfuscation, as practiced by the "choice" crowd to avoid the REAL issues is

Never in my life have I seen so mnay brazen liars. Must mean that the
pro-child-death crowd is panicking. The whole article was about INFORMING
women about the TRUTH of abortion. And then they were STILL allowed to make
that decision. In letting them know the TRUTH about abortion, the rate of
child-deaths were dramatically reduced.

Seems as though the pro-child-death crowd DOESN'T WANT ABORTION REDUCED!!
The entire thrust of the article was reducing abortion through education,
not legislating it away. No wonder there hasn't been any legal challenge to
this. Then the EDUCATION portion would also have to be challenged, raised
as evidence, and the bloodlust, pro-child-death propaganda would finally be
exposed!!!

PS. I have to put the article back in below just so people can see what
it's all about. All of you "choice" folks seem to have a problem staying on
topic. Informed women, and an informed public will ultimately put an end to
this ludicrous child butchering we call "abortion".

If you mean abortion (rather than the propaganda codeword "choice"), then I
would like to see abortion eradicated. There are ALWAYS alternatives. YOU
may not like those alternatives, but I don't like abortion... So, if you
mean abortion (which I equate with killing a human), then I am opposed to
abortion.

Funny, when NARAL supported baby killer Daschle is talking about reducing
abortion, as a result of campaign ads in his state tying him to abortion,
tells me the general public is OPPOSED to abortion. Only a radical,
propaganda spouting, shrieking minority wants to continue this hideous
evil...

Let's make it more controversial, abortion is a SIN. It is a manifest EVIL
and only a very real SATAN could call over 40 MILLION abortions a
"choice"... Hitler BUTCHERED over 6 Million Jews, Stalin BUTCHERED over 20
Million Russians, and American Socialists have brought about the BUTCHER of
over 40 MILLION unborn.

And we wonder why we have a Social Security crisis? Who's going to PAY for
it? And we wonder why there are government spending problems? Where's the
TAX "revenue" going to come from?

There were over 40 MILLION who were butchered that could have dramatically
contributed....

Great, and if I go to a Ford dealership, I am sure they will tell me all the
information I need to reasonabley decide between a Ford and a Toyota. If
that is true, why is the information presented quite differently when I go
to a Toyota dealership? Are women REALLY given all the information in a
balanced way? Are they given all the information? Are they shown videos
like "the silent scream"? I bet they are not!

Not true. I have heard of and met many couples who chose an underprivileged
child. Not that being Mexican makes a child underprivileged. It's notable
that you identified these examples by race. You sound like you are racist;
are you? Are you Pro-white? Is the Arian race the "clean" one? Is
abortion a "cleansing" method to you?

It's been practiced for years, including post birth abortion. People will
never put an end to it.
Perhaps it is possible, however, to REDUCE the occurences through education.

Didn't you hear what was said??? It's not just unhealthy fetuses that
should be put out of their misery. We should also put an end to Mexican
babies, especially those who are going to be born in the city.
After all, let's get this straight. There are worse things than being Crack

Of course it does. Abortion opponents want to control women's
sexuality by forcing them to suffer for sex.

>anti-abortionists is that abortion takes away the life of a child

That's a lie. You actions show it to be a lie.

Abortion opponents don't do anything to protect fetuses. It is ALL
about making women suffer. Rather than make it easier for women to
give birth, you treat women like criminals and slaves.

Here's an example: Many times I have pointed out that abortion
opponents could prevent abortions quickly, simply, effectives, and
legally simply by paying women to give birth instead of get abortions.
Find a woman who wants an abortion and offer her cash to give birth.
But EVERY time I point out that fact, the pro-liars makes excuses,
change the subject, or argue that women might (gasp!) BENEFIT from
such an offer.

Sorry, but I consider the anti-abortion ideology to be based upon

Etobian:

I'm not sure if we're on the same page or not. Obviously, I am pro-choice. I
am also pro-life. I do not live others' lives, therefore I am not at liberty
to make the demand of parenthood on another person. I worry enough about my
own family.

I sincerely feel the answer is in adoption. To make that option preferred,
you have to remove its roadblocks: i.e. the legal pole vaulting (not just
hurdles), the idea of the mother going back in a few years to strip the
child away from the adoptive parents, the child showing up at 20 years old
and demanding back child support, etc. These things can be remedied with the
law. For these things to take place (such as back child support) the law has
to permit it. You have to go to court to get back child support.

You cannot legislate a woman's decision to have an abortion. Abortion was
illegal for years; women just used coat hangers and back-alley doctors. All
Roe-v-Wade did was make it legal. That put it in the spotlight.

>>Etobian: "I would think far more healthy fetuses are being aborted than
crack-addicted ones."

This is a myth from white middle-class America. Look at the locations of
these clinics and their clientele. You'll see. Mary and I (my ex-wife) were
one of only three "white couples" out of a room of maybe 25 or 30 couples.
(I say "couples" as a rough working number. Some women came with another
woman, some women were alone, others had more than one person with them.)

I also used "crack-addicted" as a broad example. There was a recent article
in the Austin American-Statesman (Austin's newspaper) about two girls that
were adopted by a lesbian couple. These girls were seven (?) and twelve and
of mixed race. Religious people do what they can to stop gay couples from
adopting, which was part of the basis of the article. Mixed-race children
turn the stomach of many religious zealots.

Whites don't want blacks adopting white kids, for whatever reason. The
inverse on that also true. That's not 100%, obviously, but the percentage is
high enough to stifle efforts to do what we both consider part of the
solution. This also applies to other races.

My answer: I firmly believe that when people truly step up to the plate with
regard to contraception & sex education to young women rather than religious
rhetoric, real contraceptive answers (yes, many are available), and adoption
law streamlining at the federal level (for interstate purposes) you will
find that the abortion issue will mostly take care of itself from a
procedure standpoint. You'll still have the straggelers and "special case"
women, but you will have made the effort to offer a real solution.

THEN, the pro-life movement will have shown a legitimate concern for this
particular issue, and many of us on this side of the fence will support you
in your endeavors.

Until then, it is just hollow bullshit. "You won't trust them with a choice,
but you'll trust them to raise a child."

So this IS all about YOU. What YOU want others to do, to satisfy what YOU do

affect them and *their* lives.

You want to demand the decision, through law, because it's what YOU want.

Sounds like a control freak to me.

Absolutely. That doesn't alter the fact that a woman has NO legal choice
possible if abortion is illegal. And it is the legality of BOTH options
that the thread has moved to as well.

In any case, who, exactly, is objecting to the same amount of
information (verifiable objective information) being given on the risks
of BOTH abortion and term-pregnancy/birth?

I haven't seen *any* pro-choice person so objecting.

I have seen lots of anti-choice people wanting to suppress information
about the risks of taking a pregnancy to and through birth, pretending
(falsely) that this is far less risky than abortion. Hence trying to
PREVENT the woman having the information to make an informed choice (in
addition to trying to deny the woman a choice at all by making one of
the two possible options illegal).

The fact is that all the risks of abortion are *also* risks of term
pregnancy and birth. And the latter has some that abortion does not, as
well as those that are the same being more serious risks in the latter.
That is fact.

That is what some people (people who are anti-choice) want to suppress!

There are no human beings involved in a pregnancy before birth (except
for the pregnant woman). The status of human being begins as birth
completes.

To: Stevex

You sir, are a hysterical idiot. I'll address this one first:

>>Stevex: "You sound like you are racist; are you? Are you Pro-white? Is


the Arian race the "clean" one? Is abortion a "cleansing" method to you?

No, I am not a racist. I call a duck, "a duck." I don't sugarcoat the
problems and dance around them. For the record, I am American Indian. Go
fuck yourself. Now, please make sure to post your requisite vomit of "just
because you're indian doesn't mean you're not racist."

The child my ex-wife put up for adoption was all-white. The line to adopt
started to the left, three months before his birth. (The child was not mine.
She became pregnant from an affair.) BTW, the word is spelled "aryan." If
you're going to attempt an unfounded insult, at least make a vague attempt
to know what the hell you're talking about.

That said, I'll move on to the more reasonable points in your post.

>>Stevex: "Great, and if I go to a Ford dealership, I am sure they will tell


me all the information I need to reasonabley decide between a Ford and a

Toyota.If that is true, why is the information presented quite differently


when I go to a Toyota dealership?"

This is an "apples to oranges" comparison, not to mention a strawman
arguement. You have worded the question with a false analogy to get your
desired answer. As I put in one of my posts, I have been party to both
choices. Or are you implying a Japanese-vs-American style abortion? (Just
being as ridiculous as you....)

>>Stevex: "Are women REALLY given all the information in a balanced way?

Yes, they are. I've seen it with my own eyes. Have you?

>>Stevex: "Are they given all the information?

Define *all*. Did a doctor come out and talk to us about the Laws of
Thermodynamics and how they apply to not only to the structural integrity of
the building but the tools used in the procedure? No, he didn't. They didn't
offer any Cajun recipes nor information on housetraining a puppy, either.

Or are you implying that the doctor did not inform us that an incompetent,
self-righteous baffoon with a Bible was waiting outside to condemn us to a
hell we didn't (and don't) believe in? He (actually "she") missed that one,
too.

>>Stevex: "Are they shown videos like "the silent scream"?"

I would assume there isn't a soundtrack available on CD for this particular
movie.... To directly answer this question, just what, pray tell, is this
"silent scream video?" Religious propaganda? A puppet show? A video using a
camera up a woman's vagina?

More hysterics, most likely.

>>Stevex: "I bet they are not!"

I'll bet you're right. Know what else? I wasn't shown a video of the cyst
being surgically removed from my tailbone, actual footage nor religious
hysterics.

The clinics are not there to make the decision for the woman. They are
offerring a *requested* service within a controlled environment, with
qualified personnel in attendance. They put forward information to make sure
she knows her options. You need to get a grip on the actual workings of each
of the characters in this drama.

>>Stevex: "I have heard of and met many couples who chose an underprivileged
child."

And I would commend them. If there were more people like these, a huge
problem would resolve itself. Unfortunately, they are but a tiny fraction.

>>Stevex: "Not that being Mexican makes a child underprivileged. It's


notable that you identified these examples by race."

You are the person that indicated other races were underpriveleged. Perhaps
it is you that is the closeted bigot? Try reading my words in context, this
time without your head up your ass.

It's pro-lie propaganda, soundly debunked, and so patently absurd than
only stupid people believe it. There's a rebuttal on Planned
Parenthood's web pages.

Looks like a BUTCHERED BABY to me??  Why don't you take a good look and call this a "fetus"...  After all, that fits the child death propaganda!
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
April 1990 - Atlantic Monthly 



Feminism and Abortion
Pro-choice arguments, the author says, reflect the ambitions, hypocrisies, 
and contradictions of contemporary feminism.

by Martha Bayles

SANDRA DAY O'CONNOR has observed that "Roe v. Wade is on a collision course 
with itself." Justice O'Connor was referring to medical advances since 1973 
that make it easier both to destroy potential life and to preserve it. Her 
meaning is vividly illustrated by those rare but disturbing cases in which a 
second- or third-trimester abortion yields a living infant, which must then 
be either killed or rushed to another part of the hospital for the latest in 
neonatal care.
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
MORE INFO ON "POST BIRTH ABORTION," ESPECIALLY AS SUPPORTED BY N.O.W. AND ALA ANDREA YATES!!
 
“The most merciful thing a large family can do to one of its infant members is to kill it"  Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood, in "Women and the New Rage," p.67.
 
In response to a question concerning China's policy of compulsory abortion after the first child, Molly Yard responded, "I consider the Chinese government's policy among the most intelligent in the world"   Gary Bauer, "Abetting Coercion in China," The Washington Times", October 10, 1989.
 
"No woman should be authorized to stay at home and raise her children. Society should be totally different. Women should not have that choice, precisely because if there is such a choice, too many women will make that one." -- Interview with Simone de Beauvoir, "Sex, Society, and the Female Dilemma" Saturday Review, June 14, 1975, p.18
 
[W]omen, like men, should not have to bear children.... The destruction of the biological family, never envisioned by Freud, will allow the emergence of new women and men, different from any people who have previously existed. — Alison Jagger - Political Philosophies of Women's Liberation: Feminism and Philosophy (Totowa, NJ: Littlefield, Adams & Co. 1977) 
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Forty-two amicus curiae, or "friend of the court," briefs were filed on behalf of "Roe."  A "woman's brief" argued, as author Marian Faux summarizes it, "that even if a fetus were found to be a legal person, a woman still could not be compelled to nurture it in her body against her will." Prominent women such as theologian Mary Daly, Barnard College president Millicent McIntosh, anthropologist Margaret Mead, and former U.S. senator Maurine B. Neuberger (D-Oregon), all signed it.
 
"that even if a fetus were found to be a legal person, a woman still could not be compelled to nurture it in her body against her will."
 
Consider this statement a moment, put another way, even if a fetus were a legal person, a woman could not be compelled TO LET IT LIVE (i.e. COMMIT MURDER).  And we wonder why Child Abuse is so high among those same women that buy into the Feminist party line and do not value marriage, OR LIFE!!!  Was infanticide (child murder) the feminist goal all along??
 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
 
“[The unborn victims of violence act]  would establish penalties for those who harm a fetus, either knowingly or unknowingly, while committing a federal crime-such as bank robbery, kidnapping or terrorism. This bill is yet another attempt to limit and restrict a woman’s right to choose.”  N.O.W.  September 15, 1999 Legislative update.  (Apparently, NOW’s version of “choice” also includes FORCED ABORTIONS during the commission of a crime.  The “choice” is no longer a woman’s.  According to NOW, If she WANTS the child, TOO BAD IF IT IS MURDERED DURING A CRIME!)
 
"[M]any blacks wonder whether black civil rights and abortion fit so neatly together. Black pregnancies have historically been the target of social engineers such as Margaret Sanger, founder of Planned Parenthood.  Sanger was convinced that blacks, Jews, Eastern Europeans, and other non-Aryan groups were detracting from the creative intellect and social potential of America, and she wanted those groups' numbers reduced..." -- Greg Keath, in the "Wall Street Journal", 27/9/89

NOW Rallies to Mother's Defense.  Group Says Woman Needs Help, Not Prison, in Drowning of 5 Children. By Paul Duggan, Washington Post Staff Writer, Monday, September 3, 2001; Page A03.  excerpts below…
 
"From what we know right now, [Yates's] psychosis is so obvious and her mental illness is so heart-wrenching that clearly she's entitled to treatment and not punishment," declared Terry O'Neill, a NOW vice president in Washington.  She said the group's national leadership ‘completely supports’ [NOW's Texas state president, Deborah Bell’s] efforts, which have been denounced by victims' rights advocates, media pundits and others.”
 
Dianne Clements, a Rosenthal supporter and head of Justice for All, Texas's biggest victims' rights organization, reacted angrily to NOW's criticism. "I don't believe they should be using their political power and prestige to help a woman who has acknowledged killing five children," Clements said. She accused NOW of "prejudging" Yates based on liberal ideals before a word of testimony has been heard.
 
"They've decided to seek absolution for Andrea Yates," Clements said. "They've absolutely accepted that she's not responsible for what she did before they've heard any facts in court. . . . None of us can say why she killed those children, whether it was because she was psychotic or she was just plain evil."
 
"Such a [post-partum depression] defense, however, is not novel," wrote Dallas lawyer Brenda Barton Neuwirt in the Southern Methodist University Law Review. In a 1998 article, she recounted successful postpartum psychosis defenses by a California mother who intentionally ran over her infant with a car and a New York woman who smothered two of her babies and tried to smother a third.
 
She also cited the highly publicized D.C. Superior Court case of LaTrena Pixley, who pleaded guilty to second-degree murder in 1993 in the suffocation of her infant daughter. At her sentencing, after a defense lawyer submitted a psychiatrist's report attributing the crime partly to postpartum depression, the judge stunned the court by ordering Pixley, then 20, to spend weekends in jail for three years.
 
Yates's sympathizers tend to lose sight of an important element of the tragedy.
 
"You know what I think [Rosenthal, the D.A.] saw when he looked at this case?" Clements said. "I think he saw the same thing I saw: five beautiful children, dead." 
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
NOW Throwing Lifebelt to Mom who Drowned Five Kids.  Phil Brennan.  Thursday August 30, 2001.  NewsMax.com.  Excerpts below…
 
The National Organization for Women (NOW), which couldn't bring itself to lend aid and comfort to rape victim Juanita Broaddrick, is going all out to help a woman who drowned her five children.
 
According to the ultra-liberal feminist organization, NOW is helping to raise money for Andrea Yates on the grounds that their involvement might help raise people's consciousness about post-partum depression.
 
Now opposes the death penalty except for the victims of the abortion industry which they vigorously support.
 
Yates admitted to police that she drowned her children one-by-one in a bathtub. She revealed that when it came the turn of her oldest child he fled and she had to chase him down and drag him back to the tub.
 
Not surprisingly, NOW has been joined by the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), several other women's and health groups and anti-death penalty organizations in the Andrea Pia Yates Support Coalition.
 
One reason for their support, observers say, could be that the pro-abortion NOW may view such child killing as merely retroactive abortion, and therefore worthy of their support of the killer.

I Love it Ray!!  The fact that the "CHOICE" (child-death) crowd has been reduced to name calling, means there is NO SUBSTANCE to the stand for baby killing that we call "abortion" which has been propagandized as "choice"...
 
Hmmm...  Only a very real DEVIL, as in lucifer or satan could call over 40 MILLION "terminated" humans in AMERICA ALONE a "choice"...
 
Ray, why are you such a staunch supporter of abortion?  After all, as you can see below your message, it's REALLY about infanticide, or killing children.  The feminists who promoted it have just been trying to use abortion as a stepping stone!!  So why do YOU support it??

So Steve, rather than you becoming an "expert" who supposes they're NOT
given all the information, why don't you PROVE they're not? The problem is,
no one is willing to challenge these laws because the information that would
be brought forward at trial would sweep the country and drive a nail in the
pro-child-death camp. So, prove them wrong... It should be simple, the
information is publicly available if you wish to do some research...

If it's just about me, why are you so upset?  Why do you even bother?  I still wonder, what is the reason that many of those who post support abortion?  Just would like some reasons is all...  You see, no dialogue can begin until the reasons can be addressed.

Either you want them to be given balanced, accurate information, or
you want to show them biased, unfactual movies like "The Silent
Scream." You can't have both.

I would guess you'd rather lie to women to prevent them exercising
their choice rather than present them with unbiased information and
let them do the choosing. Anybody who would present "The Silent
Scream" as fact wouldn't hesitate to lie further.

Ray, do you really think the name calling is going to work?  That's the standard tactic of the radical baby killers.  Only the most radical pro-child-death advocates resort to that.  So where's the substance that abortion is GOOD for anyone?  Where's the substance about WHY abortion is necessary?  Or do those questions make the pro-child-death crowd unconfortable.  After all, abortion is nothing but a gateway to the real goal of infanticide...  See it below, right from the mouths of those who are the strongest pro-"choice" (child-death) supporters.
 
How about some substance?  Or is all you know about name calling?  Is that the extent of the pro-abortion lobby?  Name calling?  Is there no SUBSTANCE to the reason for abortion?  How about some reasons why over 40 MILLION abortions (in America alone) are necessary?

Etobian:

The clinic "we" went to was in Houston, Texas. Roughly where Chimney Rock
meets I59 South. Just inside one of the "rougher" parts of town. Here in
Austin, the two Family Planning Clinics that I know of are in predominantly
black and Hispanic areas. I do not know if they perform abortions in those
clinics.

The mother of a friend in San Antonio worked in the lab of a clinic. Her
name was Carol. I've known Carol for over twenty years, since her daughter
(Cyndi) and I went to school together. To me, her word is credible. Carol
has told me stories of the hypocrites picketting the clinic, that would
knock on the back door after hours and ask for the doctor to "take care" of
their own daughter. Made me want to puke.

I couldn't say about those in Mattapan or Roxbury. I'm not familiar with
those areas.

That is a matter of opinion to some. But would that not mean my nephew, who
was premature is not a human? Oh wait, I guess passing through a vagina
made him human? Too bad I cannot remember if he was a c-section baby. What
happens then? Isn't this kind of like racism? I mean, there is a life with
human genes, but you say it is not human. I do not understand.

To C. Legal,
 
Why am I upset?
 
Because my yard hasn't been mowed in three weeks due to rain, and I have a project that just seems to be running in slow motion. Don't flatter yourself, Sweetness, you are incapable of upsetting me. You are but a few words on a computer monitor. Untruthful words, at that.
 
Why do I bother?
 
Because control freaks like yourself use threats and hysterics to coerce others to comply with your demands.
 
>>C.L.: "I still wonder, what is the reason that many of those who post support abortion?"
 
We don't, once again indicating your complete lack of understanding, or intentional misreprentation. We are pro-choice, not pro-abortion. Offer guidance, advice, information, etc, but the "choice" is left to the person that has to live with it: the mother.
 
Abortion will not go away. It was here long before Roe-v-Wade, it would still be here if R-v-W were overturned tomorrow. It would just move back into the shadows. If you're going to put a dent in it, offer a resonable solution. Making a law against "this" or "that" doesn't do a damn thing.
 
Here is my idea of a reasonable solution:

I have a question. What about a conjoined twin? Can he kill his brother if
it means freedom for him/her? After all, pro choice means terminating a
life that is part of your body. It is saying, I don't want you to be a part
of me anymore, so I have the right to kill you. What's even more lenient
with the conjoined twin is that it is MORE than 9 months they have to be
together AND they share the exact same genes. If you don't want your baby,
put it up for adoption.
In all the "re-union" style episodes of talk shows, have you ever seen a
woman or her adopted child say they wished for a termination of the child's
life? I've only seen a couple, as I watch little TV, but I cannot imagine
that happening.

DavidBarnes:

Here is Pat's question that you seem to have overlooked:

>>Pat Winstanley: "By wanting the woman to have the *legal* choice of
whether to end or
continue her pregnancy? Exactly how is that preventing a woman making an
informed choice?"

>>"what is your excuse for attempting to CONTROL women by advocating forcing
them
to either break the law or continue their pregnancies?"

I don't know that she had asked it of you directly, but you appear to have
responded to it. Following this many threads at once made it difficult at
best to determine "who" asked "what" directly of "whom."

Language is a funny thing; It evolves. When people start using a term, it
becomes a term that has meaning. The meaning that this particular term has
come to mean to most people is the destruction of an unwanted human life -
post birth. That is why there are so many people that use the term.. click
the link oh wise one.
As someone who cannot see that the side of the vagina a child is on makes a
difference when killing a child, I personally feel it is an accurate term.

Only when a woman is FULLY informed, which would include the destructive
effect of abortion, can a REAL "choice" be made.

There is no "choice" when the options are not fully developed and explored.
And the pro-abortion crowd (who have renamed abortion "choice") simply want
to keep women IGNORANT. Choice to the pro-abortion crowd only seems to mean
one thing --; abortion. There are no other "choices" to choose from...

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

...An advocate for the unborn says the State of Mississippi has seen a
decrease in the number of babies dying at the hands of abortionists.
Terry Herring, with the group Choose Life, says pro-life supporters
are excited about a number of factors that have contributed to saving
the lives of babies in Mississippi. She says there has been a drop
from about 8,000 abortions in 1991 to 3,500 in the year 2000. Herring
believes these changes are due to new laws addressing parental
consent, informed consent, and a 24-hour waiting period. In addition,
there are abortion clinics that are now closed in the Magnolia State.
Herring adds that last year the state passed a law banning the
University Medical Center in Jackson from performing abortions, except
in very rare and extreme cases.

###[end of excerpt]

Since Roe v Wade is still fully in force in Mississippi, legalizing
every abortion regardless of any reason not to have one, considering
only a woman's choice, it looks like Mississippi has provided a good
pattern for the nation to follow. The U. S. Congress should rush to
make these Mississippi laws into national laws. Performing medical
procedures in the absence of informed consent is medical malpractice
for which abortionists should lose lawsuits and licenses to practice.

Parental Consent : a minor child pregnant has the greatest conceivable
need for her parents' support. Barring the cases for which judicial
by-pass has been provided in Mississippi, a parent should make the
decision on behalf of a minor child, whether an abortion is warranted.
The only alternative is to make some other adult responsible for this
decision, since a minor _cannot_ make a legal decision of such
consequence. The most central element of informed consent is missing
when a minor undergoes abortion without the parents' consent. If a
sound reason exists to ignore the parents' role as legal guardians for
the child, let a court confirm such a reason.

Informed Consent: Every woman contemplating abortion must get full
information about the procedure, especially including the procedure's
likely negative effects on her physical and mental health. She also
must get full information (preferably including a real-time image) on
the current developmental level of the prenatal child she contemplates
paying an abortionist to kill. Justice requires this. The failure to
get this information to the woman contemplating abortion is criminal
medical malpractice. The common failure of abortionists to provide
sufficient factual information - they usually provide lies and
misinformation instead - should be the basis of malpractice lawsuits
that almost every woman with a history of abortion could win.

It seems clear that these measures actually enhance women's right to
choose by making more likely a mature and fully informed choice, which
will please everyone except the radical abortion advocates. Express
your support for meaningful choice on abortion nationally by voting
for the U. S. senators and representatives who will work to pass these
wholesome laws.

Tom Daschle is bottling up in committee and preventing floor votes in
the U. S. Senate on legislation like this for our nation. Let's wake
him up or get him out of the way - now.

You never asked me that question! I think it might be a good idea. The
only thing I see wrong with it is people might get pregnant for a living
then it might become another problem. It's all theory though.
Now I can tell you, 60% or more of the babies born are female, and
eventually grow into women. I hope for their right to do so, and if that
means not wanting them to die before birth, then so be it. What an anti
abortionist is anti about isn't the loss of control over women, it's the
loss of life. What they disagree with you about isn't whether women should
be controlled, it's the existence of human life in the womb and/or the right
to take that life. Hitler thought he had the right to "cleanse" the people
of Jews and other "riff-raff", but others disagreed. Some see pro-choicers
as a cluster-bomb of Hitlers, others, like myself merely see them as mostly
well meaning people with a misinformed opinion. True, I get ticked when I
see people ignore what is obvious to me as simple reasoning and fact, but I
do know that most pro-abortionists feel the same way when their own facts
and reasonings seem to be ignored. I also believe, however, that there
persons with evil intent on both sides of the coin. There is a proverb
though that says men always believe, in their own heart, that they are
righteous. The debates stray off into name calling and everything else
because we search for the "Evil" because evil is easier to fight than good
intentions.
I assure you, my own intentions are not what you suggest about people who
are against abortion.

I've lived in southwest Houston since 1965, and if you're talking about the
clinic that's two blocks north of *US* 59 (it's not an Interstate yet, and in
the event it's designated as one, it'll be I-69) and just west of Chimney
Rock, I've dealt with the usual Saturday morning gaggle of picketers there at
one time or another in the past decade -- but that's not one of the rougher
parts of town by a long shot. (I live about three miles away from that
location, down 59 and a couple of blocks away from Sharpstown Center.) There
are three other clinics closer to me that do abortions, and a Planned
Parenthood location a couple of blocks away from one of those other three
clinics. The area in which they're located has progressed from mostly white
in the 1960s to a borderline between predominantly Hispanic and a little bit
of everything (to the west and south) at the start of the new millennium.
I've helped defend a couple of those clinics at one time or another over the
past decade or so, and I've seen the same thing: picketers coming back when
they thought none of their comrades were watching to get appointments. Some
things never change with the anti-aborts, and hypocrisy is one of those
things.

Now you are really talking propaganda in the form of anti-choice rhetoric.
You know very well that no women has a right to kill a child because they
don't want to be "stuck with it". The ones that do that sort of thing go
to jail for murder if they are caught and prosecuted.

You are on the wrong NG. This is the pro-choicers and the
anti-choicers. Who is pro-child-death? Don't tell me your argument is
SO WEAK that you need to distort our position.

If you are for these "lives" would you support the ultimate conclusion
of forcing women to give birth? Would you support higher government
taxes to help the children and mothers?

Didn't you just call those who favor letting a women decide what to do
with regard to giving birth "pro-child-death?" Sounds like name
calling... Here is a name for you - HYPOCRITE.

You call it choice, I call it baby killing and child death.  If we want to use COMMON language, rather than the euphamisms, I would be happy to settle on abortion.

>>C.L.: "I still wonder, what is the reason that many of those who post support abortion?"
 
We don't, once again indicating your complete lack of understanding, or intentional misreprentation. We are pro-choice, not pro-abortion. Offer guidance, advice, information, etc, but the "choice" is left to the person that has to live with it: the mother.
 
So then, if you're not pro-abortion, then you're against abortion?
 
And if not, then what is "choice"?  Seems to me that "choice" has resulted in OVER 40 MILLION ABORTIONS in America alone.
 
So, help me here, pro-"choice" is not pro-abortion?  Then axiomatically, this stance of "pro-choice" is opposed to abortion?  Or does "choice" support abortion?
 
And it would seem to me that "choice" at least according the leaders of the "choice" movement is about Infanticide.  Planned Parenthood seems to support infanticide, NOW certainly seems to support infanticide...

Thank you. The same thing that makes a pre-mature baby human.
Micropreemies are born amazingly even at less than 5 months old, and yet
survive into adulthood. I even remember seeing something about a child on
TV less than 20 weeks that lived for about an hour. And just because they
cannot live on their own (nor can 1 year old infants either mind you) some
people say they are not human. They deduce that when the scalpel starts to
slice their little bodies and they cry out with a silent scream, that it is
merely the nerves reacting. Some say that although they agree a life and
soul is in there, that this makes them not a human but no different than a
low-life animal until is outside the mother, and therefore can be killed as
easily and without conscience as a bug on the ground. Some feel that yes,
it is human, but because it hasn't experienced life, that killing it doesn't
make a difference.
I believe that YES it is alive. I believe that it IS human. It has human
legs, torso, head, brain, possible ears, fingers, feet, toes... GENES! Yes,
in our scientific standards, genetically speaking, it is a human. With all
the pain and fear reaction of the child while it is being killed, we should
deduce it is alive. I personally believe that taking a human life,
unformed, underformed, mal-formed, fully formed or even uninformed, is not
morally correct.

Thalidomide babies were born with parts that didn't grow past a few weeks of
pregnancy, yet their limbs are no less human than the rest of them.

That "silent scream" crap has been repeatly discredited. You best stay
away from it.

But that is opinion. We certainly have no proof of a soul. For
example, I don't believ we ever have a "soul." You can't use that to
claim a human exists as we can't establish it. By that, I mean,
perhaps a goat has a sould - is it human?

That is fine and I think you are entitled to you OPINION on it, but
that is all it is. We can't be passing laws forcing women to do things
against their will because YOU have an opinion about it.

> Yes,
> in our scientific standards, genetically speaking, it is a human.

Now we are getting somewhere. However, "scientific standards" do not
claim it is human being. It is called a fetus because that is what it
is. A human fetus. For example, a human sperm or human egg are not
human beings, right?

> With all

Th evidence is that there is no pain. The "silent scream" is prolife
propaganda that has been disproved. It is important for prolifers to
stick with facts and not make things up if they expect to get anywhere.
This silent scream and pain claim only makes the prolife argument look
weak because it appears that the truth can't support the claims.

Then, if I were you, I would not have an abortion or become a a doctor

I think that there are times when it is appropriate to incarcerate a
parent who abuses his/her child. That is not the case here.

As for female prolifers, I think they are twisted as male prolifers. I
think most don't really care about life or the child, if they did they
wouldn't support the programs they do that injure women and children.

I think, like male prolifers, they want to make abortion illegal for
other reasons that have nothing to do with life or children. Reasons
that are really quite sick.

I really worry about the idea of a state basing ANY of it's laws off

I say this so often it gives me a headache. The fact that you must
distort our position means our real position has merit. Why else
distort it? We don't do that to you. You do it to us because you want

Indeed.

http://www.plannedparenthood.org/abortion/silentscream.HTM

The Facts Speak Louder Than "The Silent Scream"

"In the mid-1980s, leaders of the anti-abortion movement produced a
video called The Silent Scream.

"The video, epitomizing the anti-abortion agenda and strategy, tried
to shift the focus of the abortion debate away from compassion for the
health and needs of the woman to an exaggerated concern for the fetus.

"Although riddled with scientific, medical, and legal inaccuracies as
well as misleading statements and exaggerations, The Silent Scream is
still wildly popular with anti-abortion zealots. And it continues to
be a key tool in their propaganda efforts."

The page I've linked lists some of the video's "scientific, medical,
and legal inaccuracies" and "misleading statements and exaggerations".

Think globally, act locally.

A doctor who did not provide all of the relevant information would be

Right on. It is a HUGH distortion to say that people want to adopt.
They want to adopt healthy white infants. Minorities, the unhealthy,
and children over about two years old need not apply...

They are underprivilaged. Not because of anything having to do with
biology, however. They are underprivilaged because of racism.

I fail to see your point. Why would I have to adopt a child before I could
understand why it is an option? Why is it any different than you saying
adoption is bad?

So? It was debunked long ago, and it's still patent bullshit...continuing to
claim it's factual doesn't change the reality that it's still patent
bullshit.

No wonder I've been pro-choice for a third of a century -- I was raised not to
lie...
