The best way to fight abortion isn't to treat the situation as an all or nothing prospect. Even if it were illegal you still would not stop the practice. Anymore then you stop murders, rapes, or narcotics. Where there is the will. There is a way, and people used that way before it was legal. The best way to thwart abortion is to attack the root cause, and that never was a court decision. The root causes are ignorance, poverty, and psychology. All of which are addressed through good education, strong governmental economic intervention, and flexible social contracts. Which ironically are what most antiabortionists abhor. They often despise sexual education, because they think it is sinful. They are disgusted by social programs like Welfare. They are also so firmly entrenched in their beliefs they will not allow engaging in new social dynamics to bring about better conclusions. The goal should not be to stop all abortions period. The thought that you can is ludicrous. The goal should be to minimize the need for them to happen in the first place. Had this person truly thought about any other coarse they might have put their energy to better use. Handing out condoms to prostitutes. Helping in social programs that support the poor. Serving as a role model to the youth in their community through mentoring. Instead they were lazy and chose a bullet. All anyone can say about that is what a dumb fuck. |
This post is phrased way better than anything I could say or type... That's pretty much what I think society should do. Education is the best option here, it means less stupid abortions (people who don't use protection) which is what I am the most "against". I have no issues with abortion in cases of insest, rape or health issues.
I know I have no say in other people's choices, so I am pro-choice when it comes to society, but for myself, I would never abort except in the few exceptions I mentionned.
Oh and about the murder, anyone who is *really* religious would find this outrageous... Otherwise, you're an effing hypocrite. Re-read your sacred text or w/e, I'm pretty sure it says you shouldn't kill, it's a sin. As for myself, I have morals, even if I'm not religious... So I find this disgusting. Yes I find abortion horrible but it's not a reason to kill someone. That won't solve the issue. If you're okay with this, seek psychological help... There's something wrong in your head.
