I'm no longer just pro-choice, I'm pro-abortion.

I'm serious too, I think that in a world with problems with over-crowding and with children growing up in entirely unsuitable conditions abortion needs to be free and widely available and used more often than it currently is.

Though I disagree with it as a form of birth control, there are far safer ways of doing that.

 

why not just nuke most of africa and asia?

 

oh god, i know you are joking, but that's just too much.  especially those poor kids in africa... they have enough problems to worry about than by adding nuclear devastation to the mix.

 

it wasnt really a joke.  just a critical look on his position.  if murder is ok because of over-crowding and unsuitable conditions....why not go to places where there are large amounts of people living in poor conditions and kill them.

Once again we come to the crux of the argument. You see it as murder as you see a fetus as human, I see a fetus as a collection of cells with absolutley no mental abilities. To me killing a fetus is like cutting down a tree, except killing a fetus doesn't cause harm to the environment, in fact in the long run it probably helps the environment.

Bombing Africa and Asia is causing devastation to the environment and maiming and killing many creatures that do have the ability to feel pain and emotion (including humans). The political fallout would also be staggering.

Just make abortion easier to access and more culturally acceptable and both humanity and the planet will be better off.
