A lot of people get murdered that I don't know, but I still want to impose laws on the people who murdered them.

But by making murder illegal, you're giving the person to be killed more rights than the person killing them, because they cannot choose to kill that person. Even if that person is quite annoying.

Are those people being gestated in a woman's body in the first or second term of a pregnancy? I wish Republicans cared about the poor, the sick and minorities as much as they do fetuses. This country would be a much better place.

You'll probably want to check the stats on who gets aborted.

Where did I call anyone stupid? I think I've made valid arguments that not giving fetuses more rights than the woman carrying them is a pretty sound argument. Seriously, how does abortion have a negative affect on your life? You wish to impose laws on women you don't know and force them to go through with a pregnancy they don't want. What kind of medieval, religious crap is that?

You're right. You never used the word "stupid." Instead, you said that "only religiously brain washed men" oppose abortion rights.

Either way, you're not making a fact based argument. Unless you have proof that "only religious brain washed men" oppose abortion rights, you're instead making a generalized, personal and emotional attack against anyone who disagrees with you on this issue.

Which is a deep irony considering that as soon as a minority baby is born, Republicans want nothing to do with them. As George Carlin once said, "If you're preborn, you're fine. If you're pre-schooled, you're f*cked!"

Is it, though? I don't think there is a big push to legalize the killing of the poor, the sick and minorities after they are born.

Religiously brainwashed men do seem to be the overwhelming majority of politicians who want abortion banned. Specifically, white, Republican males in Congress or state legislatures. How about if we let women make these type of decisions since they are the ones who actually have to carry a child to term? Men making medical decisions for women is ridiculous. Pure male ego...

Of course there is not a push to kill the poor, sick or minorities; Republicans simply don't care about them because they're not the GOP base and they don't have enough money to pay off a politician.

Got it. So it was a non sequitur.
