Don't Want To Be Insensitive To A Fellow Duer's Personal Story... But...
Does anybody else here find it ironic that a child of adoption would hope against abortion ???
Help me out here... the mother in this case DID NOT have an abortion.
Something the "pro-lifers" have been advocating for... for decades.
How does a woman win here ???
LinkI didn't really bring this over for the original post. There is just been so much infighting on this subject lately on the island.

But for you, I'll risk it.

11. Thanks, WillyT.
Unfortunately, I am anti-abortion. I used to think that abortion should be illegal, and that Roe v. Wade should be overturned, but I've changed my mind about that issue because too many lives would be lost without having access to safe abortions. But I am still against abortion and do not believe that it is a woman's "right" when it involves the right of another human being to life, itself.
I've said this many times on DU, much to the chagrin of those who are avidly and ardently pro-choice. I vote Democratic, in fact straight ticket, and I will even bite the bullet and vote for Hillary Clinton, if she gets the nomination, but I am consistently pro-life. I am against abortion, against guns, against war, and against capital punishment.
I think that there are many, many in the Democratic Party just like me, but they are often shouted down. And that's really a shame.
Now, I'm going to shut up, and let whoever wants to shout, shout. I'm sick and don't feel like arguing.
Wow...

10. Perhaps I am dense, quite possible
But never saw the shaming. Also the post was quite clear, it is a woman's choice

18. Don't Want To Be Insensitive, but that is what your doing isn't it?
True...
It's been real interesting on the subject there, especially since a long term star member didn't get the pizza for "coming out" as a sorta pro-lifer and Skinner himself let it stand.
