Methinks you have a vastly overblown concept of the importance of the human race, sorry. If you want to look at things that way though, the 'rules of engagement' for abortion spell out when and under what circumstances abortions may be performed. So long as they are performed under those 'rules', you really have no room to complain. Certainly you can try to change the laws, but until you do, where do you get off telling other people what they can and can't do?
It is through complaining that things change. Do you believe that we all just woke up one day and decided that blacks were indeed human beings and not chattel to be owned and sold?

And I am not telling you that you can't get an abortion. Just like I wouldn't have been able to tell you that you couldn't own a slave back before the Civil War. I could however tell you that it was wrong, just as I can tell you that having an abortion is killing another human being.

And if I think the rules are wrong the I have all the room to complain that I wish. In fact, that is how the rules get changed, and exactly the reason that Roe will be struck down next time it is heard. It missed falling by one vote last time, and that vote was in question until the 11th hour. Next time the law will be struck down. Do you believe that when the rules are changed, by the rules, that you will have no room to complain?


It may be that your sole purpose in life is to serve as a warning to others.
