that makes no sense, a babay isnt a person born of thin air, its a good choice or bad circumstances you cant personalize a fetus.

All I know is that over-population sucks.

Fetus =/= person.

Do you know what rape is?

Yes it does and these "pro-life" people seem quite blind and insensitive to that fact. I dont see any of them rushing to adopt either. Out of sight, out of mind.

lol apparently not. im sure youre intelligent, jasmine. but your argument has no merits atm, a fetus isnt a human, its not sentient, ntm that if YOU were raped and had to look at the child of oyur rapist your whole life i doubt it would be pleasant.


now im a dude, i dont have to worry about getting raped unless i go to prison. but its a very real thing and its something that factors into too many lives.

rape is unfortunate, that doesnt give you the right to further go on after that unfortunate incident and commit another unfortunate act. deal with the rape itself, whatever u need to do to heal from it, but dont decide to kill an innocent baby who did nothing wrong

I think a more interesting topic would be.....

Who is pro-death?

anyway the question at the start of this thread was not what are your thoughts on abortion in cases of rape, i was replying to what are your thoughts on abortion. period. i'm not sure how rape got into the equation but that is an extreme circumstance that wasnt considered in my initial reply to the post.

Rape is not "unfortunate."

Rape is cruel, rape is hellish, rape is brutal, rape is unspeakable... it is horrific, disgusting, ruthless, inhuman, and heartless.

After having lived through a rape, do you really think an 11-year-old girl should have to carry a fetus to term, a constant reminder of the violation she endured?

Also, A FETUS IS NOT A BABY.

it wasnt considered indeed.


and what about a family with little moeny accidentally having a baby? should we let the kid starve in their care, or worse lead to them killing the child because they arent ready? what about caylee? theyre pretty sure mommy did her in becaus eshe couldnt go to puerto rico with her firends cause she had a kid. thats a greta life of rthe child. (on a side note i hope to all thats good they still find her ok somewhere)


honestly, abortion is the best option for alot of people. theres too many humans as it is, so were gonna add more and hope the system can handle them when they go up for adoption.

again, i wasn't talking about rape... i not sure how you guys started twisting this into a discussion on rape.

however, as evil as rape is, murder is even more so. the 11 year old's rape was not the fault of the developing baby/ feotus. she will have issues about the rape, of course, thats expected, but that has to do with the rapist not the baby.

Well you best get busy considering now as it is certainly a circumstance that can occur and why abortion may be a viable option and choice unless that fundamental right is stripped form US females.

I believe that everyone has a right to choose for themselves. I was there once and had to choose to be a single mom or to abort. Glad to say he was 21 in Feb.

I'm done with this thread and the other abortion one... getting me too upset.

Try to be civil.

have you ever heard of adoption?

have you ever heard of kids in foster homes getting beaten? or killed? or raped? ever heard of everyone of those kids is paid for with money that could be going to other programs?

Heard of it yes. Knew in my heart I couldn't carry it for 9 months and give it away.

you guys are always going to the negative extreme...

there are adopted children out there who are thankful to be alive, who have good homes and loving adoptive parents and who are thriving, if everyone decided that their fate was fixed that they had to die becuz they wud be a strain on resources or because they "probably" wud be raped or beaten... everyone would suffer that fate of death before even given a chance or choice to live a decent life.

with that i end, because i have to get to class and you guys are fixed in your thinking, as am i. Have a nice day

You are not basing these knee jerk responses in reality or any kind of viable research. Will you be adopting any of these infants that you will now FORCE ALL women to carry to term and give birth to? How big is your house? How many children can we expect you to take responsibility for?

What about the women who are drug addicted and the babies that will be born with physiological and psychological problems and may very well be unacceptable for adoption programs. Will you take them on also? Or do you expect the state to "house" them somewhere? Its out of sight out of mind right? You are happy because your supposed "moral" agenda was fulfilled.

I urge you to look at the problem you will now embark on creating from every possible angle.
