I don't think that everyone sees it as a foregone conclusion that as many abortions will take place. And others probably just don't think that far into it.

last semester my friends were driving home from a grocery store when they were stopped at a traffic light. they looked outside the car across the street where they saw a middle aged woman holding a can of gasoline. next thing they knew, the light turned green, and they watched as the woman's body became engulfed in flames as she collapsed on the ground.

after a few days of little to no reporting on what exactly happened, it turned out that she was a woman who had been suffering mental problems as of late, who left a note protesting abortion. she was outside some sort of birth assistance center, and this was her way of getting her message across.

as one of my friends put it, "you kind of hope that you'd go through life without having to watch a person burn to death."

I was at a John Kerry rally in Cleveland last summer and the only pro-Bush individuals there were abortion protesters. We simply ignored them since they were probably the only Bush voters in northern Ohio anyway.

I'm a Christian.
I'm generally a conservative.
I am against abortion.

That being said, abortion clinic protesters are about as effective as Gay Day Paraders.

Maybe we can get the gays and the pro-lifers together and form a new political party. Bipartisanship is the key!

Indeed. It's not as though a queer will ever need to have an abortion -- you can't get pregnant from anal or cunnilingus, last I heard. So, I could see them stepping out to end abortion, but not so much to save life as to streamline American industry.

One quick question...

Now that the abortion cat is out of the bag, what's the point of this non-issue?

Pro-choicers will have abortions, Pro-lifers will force their kids to carry to term, nobody will wisen up and use one or more forms of protection, and the whole vicious cycle begins again, but maybe with a VD here and there to spice it all up.

If they ever made it illegal again, the only thing that would change are where the abortions take place and how unsanitary and dangerous they will become.

So seriously, what's the point in getting bent out of shape when it's such a circular argument on both sides of the fence?

Is it just because they harrass and offend pro-choicers? I agree, poor taste, and it doesn't accomplish anything, but it isn't changing anything either.


In my few years of doing what I do, I have concluded that neither sie has an interest in doing ANYTHING about it. Republicans would actually lose voters if gegortion were illegal, because many Cath-o-Lics are naturally aligned with the Democrats, but vote Repub on this single issue. By keeping people in a lather about this, both sides are able to exploit people for the one thing they really need: Money.

having said that, Chase, this:

no but a lesbian can become pregnant by insemination, dodo.
and i'm going to run your use of "queer" by our panel of homo judges here to see if it passes our standard qualifying it as a non-derogatory remark.

I also meant to post that I get a rise out of other campaign folks by refering to NARAL/PP $$ as DUCPAC (Death to Unborn Children PAC) or when I'm expecting checks from them say things like "Where the hell is my Dead Baby Money?"

But you're more likely to get laid after the parade. During, if the crowd is especially thick.

This settles it. The next weekend that I have Saturday free, I am going to find out at what clinic the anti-abortionists are protesting, and I am going to show up dressed to look like Terry from Reno 911! and carrying a poster-size version of the tubgirl shot.

I will probably be killed.

this is true. but in the case of a fetus' severe health problems, the choice of a healthy, safe abortion is available.

Good point, I didn't even think about that.

I think the goat.se guy would be a better fit with your anal sex motif, but you're the one paying the printing costs.

This will be interesting if you actually did this, because I bet they'll complain, and you'll get arrested or be forced to put away your disturbing poster. Becasue we all know that Man's Stretched Anus >>> Dead and Decaying, Bloody Infants when it comes to shocking and disturbing little kids.

Poland allows legal abortions only when the mother's health is in danger, the mother was a rape victim or the fetus is in grave danger. I think it's gotten pretty heated over there.
