The more I think about the "liberation of women" from their supposedly oppressed status under the heavy hands of men, the more astonished I am that such liberation would express itself in such determined willingness to murder helpless children, simply because of their stage of development.
The irony is breathtaking.

I need to do some research. I know that listings of plants and their medical uses have been found in ancient cultures and that some of these listings have included plants that terminate pregnecy. If ancient cultures were using these plants for that purpose, what makes this idiot think that women have only been using them since their liberation.
You really get the feeling that for these loonies having had an abortion is the sine qua non condition to gain the status of liberated woman.
The more I think about "Liberation of slaves" from their supposedly oppressed status under the heavy hands of white, the more atonished I am that such liberation would express itself in the rise of criminality. It´s the same logic here. What has abortion to do with having equal page, equal responsibility in legal terms and right to vote, for example?
Once again:
I dunno about fetus =/= child, because the child doesn't suddenly become an aware, feeling being when it passes through the natal canal. You don't spring into existance with the issuance of a birth certificate.
Only a clump of cells is not the same thing as a child, and getting rid of that clump is not the same thing as murder. And, frankly, I think it's barbaric to strip away someone else's rights away just because of those cells. A fully formed, adult human being is more important than that.
I am that such liberation would express itself in such determined willingness to murder helpless children, simply because of their stage of development.
The irony is breathtaking. Yes, it is, but not in the way that you seem to think.
First, that's not irony - get a dictionary.
My mother received that "divine punishment" in the form of me... and the one who suffered for it was, once again, me. If these assholes really cared about children they wouldn't force them to be raised by people who would rather they were dead.
People have always murdered helpless innocent children. Before there were relatively safe abortions, people killed them after birth, or just left them out in the open, to be eaten by animals. Often, the man more or less demanded that the woman would "solve the problem" if he was to stick around. Some just left the woman, thinking it was just her problem. Some women with unwanted pregnancies were put into mental institutions, with or without the baby. Unwanted kids were taken to baby farms, or as we called them in Sweden; "angel-makers". That might sound cute, but shortly after the baby arrived, it suddenly died, thus became an angel.
I could go on and on and on... Part of the liberation for women was the ability to KEEP the baby without being an outcast in society. That outcast part made a lot of women kill themselves, and thereby also the fetus. The liberation movement also saw it as more humane to remove a tiny blob of non-sentient cells, than to drown a new-born baby.
In short, more BABIES were murdered before the liberation of women, than afterwards. Now, non-sentient indistinct millimeter-long worm-like things are removed instead. A plus is that fewer women die in childbirth, and fewer are harmed during childbirth and have to live with life-long incontinence of the bladder and/or rectum.
The irony is indeed breathtaking. But not in the way you imagine it, idiot.
What happened five minutes after 10PM on 8th June was breathtaking: especially as - not twelve hours later - that exit poll was proven to be fact .
