Are you basing your post on personal opinion or on research? Okay, so you don't believe that the unborn fetus/baby feels pain? Have you done much research on the subject? The only thing I object to is abortions after the point where the fetus can feel pain, especially convenience abortions. Why not give birth at that point. If pain capability is at the very least 20-29 weeks. Alright, at 29 weeks why not give birth and do the adoption thing? Is that really such a bad opinion for a Democrat to have? My best friend, who is also a staunch liberal democrat, also feels the same. Just because someone else has a different opinion, does that mean that we are wrong? Or just that we have different points of view? My mother also has voted democrat her whole life and feels the same as I. She was born in 1954. Are you going to tell her that she is not allowed to vote Dem?
