8. she was speaking our values
She was speaking our values and making it very clear that *we* are the ones who are working to prevent unintended pregnancies and reduce abortions and the pro-lifers are not. If/when the pro-lifers fail to reach back, it reveals that they are not interested in reducing abortions, refusing to reduce abortions because they would rather punish women for having sex. The public (especially the misled middle-ground pro-lifers) need to recognize this so they can join us.

I was thrilled that she finally articulated the pro-health, pro-safety, pro-Preventing-pregnancies, pro-effective problem solving stance of the pro-choice community. We have the moral high ground on this issue so we need to articulate it well, loudly, and often to make sure everyone knows it.
