I agree that the option should be there. But there are plenty of people that do NOT take the proper precautions and then get pregnant....and what, they are shocked? Despite what some people would say, most people with any sense are educated enough to know what causes pregnancy and how to prevent it. And yes, I do believe if you can't have sex responsibly then you simply shouldn't have sex. Not just because of pregnancy, but also because of STD's. I have known very few women to get pregnant while they were using a reliable form of birth control. Well, I have known none to tell me, hey I was on the pill and we were using a condom and I still got pregnant. Its usually.....shit, we forgot to the condom....and I don't like the pill.....and we were in the moment....:rolleyes: If an accident does happen, and yes, accidents do, I would never tell a woman she HAS to have that child, or feel that I have that right to make that decision for her. But it isn't something someone should just do in place of showing some sense, and living a responsible life. As Nova said, life is precious. And to me, having multiple abortions is cold and totally irresponsible. Hell, depending on the situation and the woman, having ONE can be.
And I agree with STE about the death penalty, I used to support it for practical reasons, I admit. But I have seen too many Cold Case Files, the judicial system is too unbalanced and unreliable, as are eyewitness accounts, and if even one innocent person is put to death, it isn't worth it. But then there are those like Ted Bundy, where there is absolute no doubt and they are particularly heinous crimes well.....I certainly wouldn't lose any sleep about that. I'm just all over the place......;)
