Just because someone supports a woman's right to choose does not mean he/she supports drug use. There are probably drug users out there that don't support the woman's right to choose. Apples and oranges.

i said a
social stigma.....not saying that families won't go balistic. good grief. and i don't think there's a person alive who doesn't agree that abortion in cases of rape/molestation are valid.....it's when a person has willful sex with someone and becomes pregnant and then doesn't want it b/c it's a burden or whatever that is ridiculous. a woman's "right to choose" is a woman's right to choose whether or not to use abortion as birth control. abortion in terms of danger to the mother or in molestation cases----BIG DIFFERENCE.
and no, not "moot", you just missed my point.
my point is that ppl scream "rights! rights! rights!" "right to choose" all this....well, if we were all given the "right to choose" what we do to our bodies, drugs
would be legal. shouldn't take away
their right to chose what goes, or does not go, into their body if we're not going to take away a
woman's right to keep/destroy her fetus that left alone would be a baby.
laws are put into place to protect ppl, even from ourselves.
