What I learned from this thread: People who believe abortion is an atrocity should pretend it isn't because someone might get the wrong idea and start shooting people. I guess we shouldn't criticize human rights abuses by Western governments either because it might turn people into jihadis.
Just stop calling yourself pro-life and start calling yourself anti-abortion. That's all you really care about.
If you are willing to deny healthcare to poor people, you aren't pro-life. If you are willing to send Central American and Syrian people to certain death because their mere presence in the country offends you, you aren't pro-life.
And if you say, "But I don't support any of that," I ask, have you ever voted for a Republican? Because if you have, then you most certainly do.
I'm fairly certain that doesn't apply to shua, and I know it certainly doesn't apply to me. Of course I have voted for both parties, but I'm not sure how you can say that because if you are voting Democrat, you are also voting for death in some respects and a much more imminent one for many unlike in the case of healthcare. I vote mostly Democrat, but sometimes abortion remains an important outstanding issue. We're faced with two evils and must confront in somehow.
What can I do but get a bumper sticker that lists my demands thanks to hyper-partisanship. John Bel Edwards for President?
