51. They don't care
Thu Feb 16, 2012, 10:46 AM
Feb 2012

You never hear the anti-abortion crowd talk about real life situation which women find themselves in. They never talk about real women that wanted children but had real problems that really happen that require doctors and women to make choices. We are to belief abortion is only due to laziness, rape or evil liberalism. The majority of the public never are taught by our schools, or our media the actual medical things involved in pregnancy.

My general feel is "These people don't care". They hate women and their rights and want all of society to conform to their very narrow and often very odd view of life, religion and social order. All they care about is themselves, why else would they care so little after the birth?
