Okay, so I don't usually do this, but this is an issue near and dear to me and this is getting very little no attention in the mainstream media

I'll never understand the hypocrisy of the anti-choice crowd. They work themselves up into a rage about a group of cells but don't give a damn about actual human beings who are suffering. And the way they see women as walking baby machines is terrifying. Hope you guys can fight this. <3

Yep. Something someone said a while back has stuck with me; they said that they only care about the fetus until it's born. This is so depressingly true. If it's born into a poor family, they won't help pay for it's well being because they refuse to help the poor by voting for affordable health care and/or taxing the rich, etc. They tout adoption like it's this magical solution (when we already have thousands upon thousands of children waiting to be adopted and the foster care system is most often horrible for healthy human social development) and then don't adopt (I personally think all pro-lifers who use the adoption card should be required to then adopt domestically ;P). They would strip away the rights of a child who turned out to be gay. The list goes on

Sorry about the formatting errors. It's hard to edit comments on my phone.

EXACTLY. I can't add any more to your comment because it is perfection. It is so depressing to see women buy into this nonsense as well and think of their primary function as baby carriers and that's it. Plus, these same people are all pro-war and all for killing doctors. They're just evil.

Fingers crossed that this doesn't pass!

(and no problem about the formatting, it looked fine to me :)
