My views are pretty much the same as aephi alum and AOIIBrandi, so I'm not going to restate everything that they just wrote.
Here's my anti-pro-life people rant (hey, it might stir up controversy, but it's my opinion and I feel like stating it, so there
): I'd like to know why pro-life people feel that they can get away with telling people what to do. I don't see them going out and adopting all of these unwanted children or helping these kids when they are abused or neglected by parents who didn't want them and who resent them for being born. Child abuse and its effects are a much bigger problem for society as a whole than abortion is, so maybe they should concentrate their efforts elsewhere. (This applies mostly to the people who participate in protests about abortion...people who just hold the belief and don't do anything about it don't really bother me.)
I heard about this case near here where a judge ruled that this woman isn't allowed to get an abortion because the fetus's father doesn't want her to (the judge is ignoring the fact that they broke up because he was being abusive towards her and he probably wants to prevent her from having an abortion as a way of controlling her
). So basically, this woman may have to endure 9 months of someone using her body to make a baby that she doesn't even want. I think that is absolutely appalling. If I can find a link to the story, I will post it here (if I remember!).
