It should really be 'the right to be born and then get fucked by the system.' Just by supposing the idea that human life is special, something to be nurtured and taken care of, would then entail taking care of that life throughout it's entirety. Wouldn't it? I mean why let anyone die of starvation, or exposure? Because they didn't want to work or couldn't work? Either way, if human life has that same value then there would be the inherent responsibility, even if that person didn't play by the majority's rules, to ensure that individuals well-being. this is bullshit, or I imagine that society would have decided as whole if their was a universal value on human life. There's not. Or at least 'modern' man hasn't recognized it. |
The majority of pro-life people care about you until your born.
Once you're born, they tell you to fuck off, take care of yourself, and quit taking handouts from the government. And screw giving mothers living in poverty welfare. And if you were born poor and become a criminal, well then you're REALLY fucked. They will probably give you the death penalty. Don't do drugs or have premarital sex either.
This is one of the reason why most people who are pro-life are flagrant hypocrites, although I do think more pro-life people are becoming aware of all these contradictions and are trying to have a broader social agenda.
We had two bags of grass, seventy-five pellets of mescaline, five sheets of high-powered blotter acid, a salt shaker half full of cocaine, a whole galaxy of multi-colored uppers, downers, screamers, laughers…Also a quart of tequila, a quart of rum, a case of beer, a pint of raw ether and two dozen amyls. The only thing that really worried me was the ether. There is nothing in the world more helpless and irresponsible and depraved than a man in the depths of an ether binge. –Raoul Duke
It is hard to shed anything but crocodile tears over White House speechwriter Patrick Buchanan's tragic analysis of the Nixon debacle. "It's like Sisyphus," he said. "We rolled the rock all the way up the mountain...and it rolled right back down on us...." Neither Sisyphus nor the commander of the Light Brigade nor Pat Buchanan had the time or any real inclination to question what they were doing...a martyr, to the bitter end, to a "flawed" cause and a narrow, atavistic concept of conservative politics that has done more damage to itself and the country in less than six years than its liberal enemies could have done in two or three decades. -Hunter S. Thompson
