Totally agree. Of course, if you haven't been born yet, you'd probably appreciate a little more protection, but minor point. Minor point.

So, rage, in your mind partial birth abortion must be premeditated murder then. That seems logical.

I've said it before and I'll say it again, K-State fans could have beheaded the entire KU team at midcourt, and K-State fans would be celebrating it this morning. They are the ISIS of Big 12 fanbases.
Quote from: Fake Sugar Dick (WARNING, NOT THE REAL SUGAR DICK!) on March 01, 2014, 09:14:10 PMSo, rage, in your mind partial birth abortion must be premeditated murder then. That seems logical.Morally, there really isn't much difference between abortion and murder. I really don't believe in legislating morality and setting laws up that only serve to punish people, though. People who go get abortions really aren't a threat to anybody other than their future children, and imprisoning these people for murder will make those children every bit as nonexistent as future abortions would.

We shouldn't legislate morality, and there isn't much difference between abortion and murder. Really pisses me off that we have all this legislation against murder. Government ought to mind its own business and not legislate morality.Also, I agree it makes me sooooo mad that abortion opponents want to imprison women getting abortions - as opposed to the doctors performing them.Also, I agree there's really no practical difference between abortion and someone not getting pregnant. Either way, no kid, amiright?
Russia would think twice about invading Crimea if Wendy would STFU

More proof that radical outlets like NARAL aren't just "pro choice" - they're "pro abortion."http://thehill.com/policy/technology/204571-google-removes-anti-abortion-ads-after-pressure
That ad was a lot more truthful than most political ads.

Not a hypocrite.He definitely is a hypocrite, and I don't think he has a leg to stand on.
It's amazing to me that any political consultant thought that ad would be a good idea. It's almost as if she knows the race is over, she's still got some money to burn, and just thought "well, eff it, and eff him."
