The only time I'm pro-choice is when the mothers own life is in the balance.  Yet there are women, usually married ones that have been willing to risk their own life for the chance to let their child survive.

Not to toot my own horn but I happen to be one of them.  I know most of you know my story by now but I was told to abort my last child by two of my doctors.  I have Takayasu's Arteritis and had recently had stents placed in three arteries (subclavian, carotid and vertebral) when I got pregnant.  They had no data on my disease and pregnancy because my disease is so rare and we are told after we are diagnosed NOT to get pregnant.  My doctor was afraid I would have another stroke and probably die.   I was also on methotrexate when I got pregnant which is a drug that causes spina bifida and miscarriage.  My doctor used that as another reason to abort.  I refused.

A better term for "Pro Life" would be Anti Choice.
Since 'choice' is the douchebag codeword for 'murder', then, yeah, I'm anti-choice. Go suckstart a Mossberg, moonbat. That's a 'choice' ending in death that I could get behind.

Practically everyday.  But he's an idiot, and so I don't let it bother me.  I voice my opposition along with others and we do all the things that we must to see that his stupidity doesn't ruin the whole landscape.

Well said, that hits the nail on the head for me too!

Pro-Choice != Pro Abortion.  Pro Choice = me staying the hell out of the decision between a woman and her doctor.  A better term for "Pro Life" would be Anti Choice.
And what do these words mean:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
