Right To Life Group Sends Plastic Fetus In Mail
 

A right to life group in Racine is under fire after mailing controversial material to 44,000 people.

It included an informational letter, a fundraising envelope and a small plastic fetus.

Mystical Listrom said she was not happy with what she found inside when she opened a letter from Wisconsin Right to Life accompanied by a plastic fetus.

It's my right to choose to do what I want with my body. I shouldn't have people telling me what I can and can't do with my body," Listrom said.

11. That's the scary part, if they could they would definitely send a real fetus.
 It wouldn't bother them at all.

These fundies are in need of serious therapy.

Why would it?  It's just a clump of cells, after all...

22. And for good measure toss in a few photos of children who were
 abused and murdered by their parent(s) because they weren't wanted. 

Irony.

No, it is not your right.  You cannot sell your organs.  You cannot prostitute.  You don't have the right to use your hands to steal.  You don't have the right to use your feet to jaywalk.

Jurisprudence is loaded with things you don't have a right to do with your body.  So don't give me that crap.  Telling you that you cannot legally murder your baby is not going to set some wreckless precedent.

I knew I could count on you to debunk their pathetic, "But it's myyyyyyy body" rhetoric  :rocker:

You can also add that it is illegal to shoot heroin into one's body...but, the libtards are trying to make that legal as well.
