@Jackson. It may seem that you caught me at a disadvantage. However, when you look at it from a perspective point of view and think to yourself, "Should I really go through this?", then the majority of women would most likely say no. If they do go through with the birth then it should be complemented and hailed. I never said that the instance of rape should be always an abortive case (it should have the option of doing the right thing in my mind). It is the catcher in the rye, the moment where liberals and conservatives collide--that gotcha moment--and it doesn't have to happen. It should not have to happen. However when it does, you have to make sense of the far-reaching things, the potential life threatening things in the long term. A child could be born to that situation and if not adopted, could be distant from his or her mother for the rest of his/her life. Would I want that? Of course not. You see there is a common bind between all parties. It is emotion. One of them is sympathy-I may not have it in the other instances but for this one, I most certainly do. If that makes me a hypocrite, then so be it.
