TE...gets points for reserving judgement. I like that sort of thing.
PD...gets points for bringing up actual cases, even if he can't spell "Roe."
Red...gets points for what she's feeling right now.
Dravyk...gets points for a well thought out post. Reading the Constitution, you discover that for purposes of the census, blacks are counted as something like 1/5 of a person. Native Americans aren't counted at all. I'm rather glad that whole situation has changed with the times...as much as it has.
MikeAI...gets points for having the courage of his convictions. I admire that.
I would like to make one small comment. I don't believe that anyone is "pro abortion." Abortion is a severely traumatic, last resort, difficult decision made by women at the worst moments of their lives. No matter how deeply convinced you are that live "begins" at birth and not before, when you are sitting in a waiting room...it takes everything you have to hold on to your decision and pray you're making the correct one, no matter how much logic and rational thought you have applied to your life situation. "Pro choice" is a much better term to describe the process.
