I could be harsher and say pro-murder; but that usually leads to a thtread meltdown. Abortion is abortion.
The choice is what one makes, the abortion is what one has and the outcome is the death of a child.

It is simply that forcing a woman to go through an unwanted pregnancy because you insist on imposting your own moral views upon her is utterly abhorrent.
Lame. Tired.

innit said:Well yes, very. It's the foundation on which she can be equal with a man. Very interesting indeed.
24 weeks is a long time for a 'social' abortion (ie not because there's something wrong with the baby)
I'd support lowering it a bit but making abortion available on demand, on the nhs and not having women having to wait weeks.
And the act of terminating a life is not abhorrent? Bizarre.
24 weeks is a long time, but the way I see it no one is thinking, "oh, I won't have an abortion at 8 weeks - I'll wait til 24". If you find yourself in the position of being 24 weeks pregnant and needing an abortion, I'm guessing you have a pretty good reason. Rather than reducing the limit, we should be making it easier for women (especially young or vulnerable women) to access abortions with as little fuss as early as possible.

Are you denying that women do get pregnant after being raped?
Ah. So soon into the thread and already we're hearing the scrapping of the bottom of the barrel as the apologists scrabble for something new to say.
Anything new to say?
No. Thought not.
If anyone does come up with a coherent argument for abortion, which also deals with the right to life and the rights of an unborn child, I'm all ears.

You haven't explained how it's okay to force a woman- or girl, possibly very young- to go thru a pregnancy as a result of a rape.
I definitely agree with the latter part. I do think that once someone's got to 24 weeks they might as well carry on and have the baby adopted.
What kind of new do you want?Ah. So soon into the thread and already we're hearing the scrapping of the bottom of the barrel as the apologists scrabble for something new to say.

The right to life is a human right, pertaining to *people* not foetuses.
I imagine the vast amount of women having abortions are actually thinking about the interests of a potential child and the life it might have.
**yawns**
Everything collapses into the rape/assault/mentally handicapped-disabled child in the womb routine, doesn't it?
Simple questions - where or how does a 'right' consist in? And where or how does a woman's 'right' [or 'rights'] have precedent over a child's?
If I was raped, I'd be testing for pregnancy at the earliest possible time and would not wait 24 weeks before making my decision to keep or abort.
(This is about the lenght of time not the right to abortion, right?)

even in cases where the baby is severely disabled and will die at or shortly after birth? or where to continue the pregnancy could case the woman to die?

even if you were a teeenager and were being sexually abused?
so take your sanctimony elsewhere, please.
Explain what exactly this right to life is and what it is attached to. You might like to consider that some estimates place the 'natural' abortion rate as high as 60%; what about right to life in those cases?
