I used to be hard core pro-choice. I find that more and more I am turning anti-abortion. The choice should have been at conception. I used to say that the fetus wasnt a person, its doesnt have rights, etc. Well wait until you have a child that you want. You track its progress, you form an attachment. If some dude hit my pregnant wife across the stomach with a basball bat and killed my baby, it woulb be just that - killing - and I would respond accordingly. Try to go thru the process of lossing a baby and then tell me it wasnt alive.
There are times when it might be appropriate, but they are the exceptions. I am not a bible thumper, I am not a "sensitive" guy. Abortion isnt the answer for overpopulation any more than random executions is. At this point, I am not going to say that I am anti-choice, but my support is soft, and fading.
