I'm Pro-Life. Are you?

[UrbScotty]

I'm against the death penalty.

I opposed this war which has resulted in the deaths of more than 1,700 'coalition' soldiers and thousands of innocent civilians killed.

I'm humbled when I think that someone dies every 3.5 seconds due to hunger. Or that thouseands more die of AIDS and other diseases.

It sickens me to think of the 300,000 people who have died due to the tragedy of Sudan.

And, I am pro-wildlife because I believe in saving our environment.

Yes, I am pro-life. The question is, are you?

[Bok_Tukalo]

1. Yes

Which tends to make me unpopular with both sides of the political spectrum.

[marew]

2. Without a doubt!

[Tux]

3. Yes

I'd like to see abortion avoided as an option but keep it legal. Promoting safe sex may help reduce it especially developing good paying jobs so people can afford kids.

I'd like to see the death penality only for murders, child molestors, and rapists. No others. Some evils need evil done to them.

Also like to see more decent paying jobs so the poor can work out of poverty and get the things they need to live.

4. exactly....

I am also pro-life. Very well said.

[cestpaspossible]

5. Kinda like the phrase 'anti-war', it doesn't really mean much.

Unless there is someone going around saying the are 'pro-death', proclaiming yourself to be 'pro-life' is pretty meaningless. It's like saying you are in favor of sunlight.

[ananda]

6. Everyone is pro life.

Some are also pro-choice.

7. Pro-Choice

Needs retooling as a term, and has needed to be rescued from its early 1970s liberationists origin for 20 years or more. Religiously insane Assholes attack "pro-choice" as selfish murder. A lifestyle. A fashion. A choice--it's too casual sounding. What really needs to be stressed is the way respect for individual Liberty (which Wingers continually spout off about in economic contexts and purport to regard as an ABSOLUTE) must include individual sovereignty over one's own reproductive powers if it's to have any meaning.

11. If you've ever seen women bleed to death

from botched back-alley abortions, then you'd know that pro-choice is ALSO a pro-life stance.


(Not saying 'you' specificially, but the generalized 'you.')

8. Nice how you left out the "pro-fetus" angle.

Well-done!

[w4rma]

22. I'm all of the above and support social programs to reduce abortions

rather than illegalizing (and driving underground) abortions. And I think the vast majority of Democrats feel the same way.

[Cha]

9. I am definetly "pro life" and not a

fucking hypocrite about it, either.

We need to Frame our views on this OUR WAY!

[Mr_Spock]

10. I'm pro wagon wheel

we all gotta have priorities :D

[bonito]

12. how can life be against itself.

[Make7]

13. I'm pro-my-life.

And I will stop anyone who tries to destroy it. No matter what.

:grr: Make7

[Kathy in Cambridge]

14. I am pro-life and pro-woman so therefore pro-choice

but all other points I agree with you on! :thumbsup:

[RevolutionaryActs]

15. Perfect way to put it.

:hi:

[Protagoras]

16. No. I'm pretty much against all those things...

I mean that's what the wingers I know say my position is because I'm a liberal. Liberals hate everything and want everyone to suffer and die horribly.

They, on the other hand, would like to help the corporations take care of us by giving them all our money so that we can live in a corporatist nirvana...with Nike, Halliburton, Coke, AT&T, etc all looking out for our best interests.

I don't know why I hate so much. Really I don't. But apparently I do.

:D

[genius]

17. By your definition, yes. Also, I'm pro-choice because choice saves lives.

[Lex]

20. I agree. n/t

[SoCalDem]

18. Me too.. I think people should not commit suicide...n/t

:.

[IronLionZion]

19. damn straight I am, we all are

Democrats are pro-life. Republicans are anti-choice, and in some are anti-life.

[UrbScotty]

24. I'd say in MANY ways anti-life. (nt)

[usregimechange]

21. Yep, even for human babies, pro-choice too. Fundies confused

about that every time.

[More Than A Feeling]

23. I am not sure

I am against the death penalty.

I want to lower the number of abortions through contraception, true sex ed, economic progress, etc. Keep it legal.

I believe that it is the economically efficient to save the environment, as well as it having intrinsic worth.

I supported the war until I realized that more Iraqis would die than would have died under sanctions.

You tell me.
