    now I know we could argue and say "what if it was rape?" waaah she should be able to have an abortion if it wasn't her choice. Well, it does seem unfair.. but since when was life ever fair anyway?
    I kind of cried when I saw that.

    What if the woman didn't want to have a baby?

    What if the woman is actually poor, and her child is going to have a real bad life, have some diseases because she can't pay for the medicines, doctors and such?

    What if the doctors know for sure the child is retarded (don't know the english name for this, trysomy?) and the woman prefer to not have the child, and avoid him to have a f'ing painful life?

    What if the woman have been abused?

    Some people are talking about adoption, but do you know how it is to have a new person in your body for 9 months? Baby isn't something you create in 1 day by adding sugar to water. It takes 9 months, its sometimes painfull, the woman changes alot while this time, mentally AND physically. A baby isn't something you just give away to some random people and get over it.

    I swear, you men are all asshole. All you do is play with your penis 5min and let the woman do all the job for 9 months. Then, come to teach you what to do with your body.
    Einstien's mother was told he was going to be an invalid his entire life... and look at what he did. the arguement that doctors can tell wether or not he is going to be able to be a functioning member of society or not is wrong they can't tell 100% and even if they could so what i'm not religious or anything but what right have we to chose which babies are born and which aren't?

    and so you would rather kill a baby than carry it for 9 months and give it to some random ppl? sounds kinda assholish to me. sorry i'm pro life you made the choice to have sex now enjoy the by product. if you're not ready for a kid take birth control and use condoms. otherwise it's your own damned fault for the kid and you're murdering a human rather than take responsibility.

    if the women was abused and raped she should have a choice. if it's going to kill her to give birth she should have a choice. those are really the only circumstances i think a woman deserves a choice. bottom line is you don't want a kid don't have sex without proper contraceptives or stick to oral/anal/solo play.

    Edgar: A moron is someone who judges another without actually knowing the person at all. In this case, you. Because you don't know jack shit about me, k? You wanna come to BG forums and fume and vent and get all emo, ok fine man knock yourself out. I don't give a fuck about your "education" and no one else here does either, so please spare us the details. In fact, as you're finding out now in the real world (since you're obviously inventing the cure for cancer) nobody ANYWHERE gives a shit where you went to school. Again, to effectively debate a subject you have to avoid terms like "putz" and "moron". I only responded likewise so I could see you go all emo. It makes me laugh IRL. I'll cease the conjecture between the two of us, as its obviously going nowhere. When a person has to resort to calling someone they don't even know in-game or real life a "moron" based on an opinion, its obvious they lack suitable intelligence to engage the "moron" in an actual fact-finding mission. GG.

    The first thing you must do in an argument is to read everything that was stated before you so that you don't say something stupid.

    Let's go on a quote ride, yay!

    Remember the metaphor back where the drunk driver plows into the pregnant lady, and gets double homicide? Guess what...a baby isn't an organ, otherwise you'd get quadruple homicide everytime you killed anyone if a baby was the same as an organ. It's not, it's a baby. So the whole "their body" bullshit means nothing to me.


    I think you're right on this point. This shouldn't be called a double homicide at all.


    The funny thing is, no one that is pro-choice thinks that this should be the case...the pro-life people put this law in effect and now use it against the pro-choice...yay for straw dog arguments. The pro-choice people faught against this because they knew it was just the pro-life people laying the ground work for the eventual push to outlaw abortion. That's why pro-choice people adamantly defend partial birth abortion, even though 99% of people everywhere think it's despicible...kinda like the NRA and assault rifles.
    See, that's nice and civil, and stopped that line of reasoning cold. Case is over...or is it *dun dun DUN*

    there's no such fucking thing as this "responsibility" you're expecting from everyone, there never has been, there never will be

    and it has nothing to do with whether or not abortion is ethical anyway


    Ummm... Just because I say it, that doesn't make it so. Same goes for you sir. Responsibility it the reasonable expectation of civilized people the world over. Perhaps the reason you don't believe in it is you don't expect it?

    To some extent responsibility has everything to do with the ethical question of abortion. Just because I don't make my grass grow, that doesn't mean I'm not responsible for cutting it. Abortion as an ethical question has already been answered by the public, you just didn't like the answer because it didn't fit into your value system. If I kill a pregnant woman in a drunken driving accident while she is on her way to an abortion clinic, thats two counts of vehicular manslaughter. If the same woman aborts it, then it became a "choice" somewhere during the drive to the clinic. Seems pretty obvious to me.
    Here, you go spouting off about the whole drunk driving thing again, even though it had been put to rest 24 hours beforehand. I hate having to repeat myself to people that don't have the intelligence to read everything in the thread before spouting off about it. Maybe I used a harsh tone...but I fail at suffering fools. So...again, I hate morons, especially when they try to lecture me. Notice how I'm not calling lockecole a moron, even though our opinions are vastly different on this issue...because he's not making stupid arguments after they were put to rest.

    Oh, by the way, I didn't mention anything about my education, other than I spent 4 years at a college...for all you know I could've just been a janitor there for 4 years (I wasn't, but I'm illustrating a point here). I specifically left my college out of it...for all you know it could be harvard, it could be Clemson, it could be IUPUI...you don't know because I didn't want it to overshadow the fact that you are a moron, and you act like the morons I had to deal with in class who think they're so much smarter than everyone else, but in fact, are just mindless tools that couldn't do anything if they didn't get it spoonfed to them.

    As for emo...I'm not the one who obviously has an inferiority complex to anyone that attended college, regardless as to how bad that college's reputation could be (maybe I went to Arizona State, or Louisville)...and even if I was emo (last time I checked, I don't wear black, listen to obscure music that really sucks, or cut myself), I hardly think you would be a cause of it.


    PS: if you really want to know where I went to college, you might be able to guess if you look at some older posts of mine...who knows, you might get a boost of confidence when you find out how terrible the school was...

    leave the judging to who your religion depicts it to be, meaning if someone gets an abortion leave their fate to their god and you live your life according to yours.

    OK man. Lets look at like this: Maybe you "putting it to rest" 24 hours beforehand wasn't sufficient? And the quote of me "spouting off" was actually me sharing an opinion in a calculated manner. It just pissed you off because, well, people weren't overly satisfied with your retort. Fortunately for you I do suffer fools gladly, thus our conversation continues. I clearly stated my opinion on the matter, you interjected with all the hubris and beligerence of a drunken fool, despite the fact that I in no way attacked anyone. To further punctuate my point: I'll post what I like, when I like, on any post whether it be 24 hours old or 24 minutes. You can like it or don't, you don't moderate the forums. Ciao!

    hmm...you didn't seem to understand what I said. No one mentioned that silly argument again until you did because it didn't help support their position. It was earlier mentioned because it supported the pro life stance, but when revealed that is was nothing more than a straw dog argument (i.e. a debate tactic where one builds up a position expressly to bring it down to make their position look that much better, also known as a strawman...it is considered a fallacy) no one else mentioned it.

    Then along comes mr "I can post whenever whereever you're not the boss of me waa I'm telling mommy on you" Aldur and states the same argument, proving 2 things: 1)he failed to read the entire post before and 2)he's a moron. We know these things because if you had read my post, you would have either referenced something said earlier that contradicted your claim (you did not), or you wouldn't have used that argument. So either you just ignored it (which I guess is ok, even though it's poor form to ignore something that contradicts something you say, especially if it was stated before you opened your mouth), you didn't read it, or you read it, but didn't understand it.

    So now we stand at this. You posted something that had already been contradicted, and now you're mad because you got called on it. You then proceded to go emo about my college education, throw out witty retorts like "Fortunately for you I do suffer fools gladly" and use italian words to sound more sophisticated (btw, I pity people that suffer fools, it's so much more productive just to tell them they're fucking morons and get it over with).

    I on the other hand, are sticking with my original stance: you're a fucking moron that needs to get a red hot iron stuck up his ass...ok, I added that last part, but I think it's warrented. Anyways, please try to insult my intelligence, breeding, race, gender, or anything else you may think of insulting (I have been known to sing badly off key in the shower, you should work that in too...oh, and my athletic skills aren't that great, I can't dunk a basketball ;. The fact remains, you're a moron, and no matter what, that stands.

    Good night kind sir.
