Please everyone, stop using terms like "anti-abortion"

This term, and I have seen people like Rachel Maddow use it over and over again, implies, as Karen Handel's tweet shows, that the other side is then "pro-abortion".

Abortion is a terrible thing to live through, and no one, I repeat no one is "pro-abortion".

The only acceptable terms are "pro-choice" and "anti-choice"

Let's reclaim our language from the flying monkey right!!! Please!! Don't use their terms!

If abortion is so horrible then how in the world do you justify supporting it? I have never understood that logic.

Didn't she once say, that 20 abortions are much better than 20 births?

2. I prefer "pro-choice" and "forced birth".

And I prefer pro murder and pro life.

4. The correct terms are pro-woman/anti-woman

That's the simple fact. Nothing else correctly frames the issue.

So murdering the unborn is pro woman?

6. Abortion is not a terrible thing to live through.

That's a flimsy assertion at best. Anti-abortion is what they are, as opposed to their "pro-life" nonsense, which they certainly aren't.

21. No, they are against the CHOICE to terminate a pregnancy.

Yes, anti-abortion is correct, but that misses the point: They want to take that choice away. They are anti-choice.

Funny thing is everything else in life, you want the government to decide for everyone. The only time you are pro choice is when it comes to murder.

30. Abortion is not a dirty word

Running away from the word "abortion" isn't helpful. It continues the foolishness of considering abortion "icky" and something to hide.

That doesn't help us in the long run. The word abortion should be treated as if it's as scary as "transportation policy" or any other political issue.

Do you really want to open this can of worms, DUmmie?  You are not just pro-abortion, you're anti-life.  You bitch every time a woman makes the "wrong" choice.

You're right, Freeper.  If abortion is so ****ing terrible, why do these assholes justify not just keeping it legal, but also attacks on laws that require parental notification (parents have to be notified if the school nurse gives their daughter a Tylenol, but if their daughter has an abortion, they're supposed to be kept in the dark, WTF?) or laws requiring that ultrasounds be available in case the woman requests it.  If the DUmmies want to talk about choice, how about we make it an informed choice?

I kind of like "pro-life" and "anti-life" myself.

But usually I use "pro-life" and "pro-abortion," as "anti" suggests something negative.

They also are against having an ultrasound before having an abortion so a woman actually sees what she is aborting before she does it. They also don't what any pictures of the "products of conception" out there so people can see the horror.

Edit: I don't know how I read your post and totally missed your comment about having an ultrasound. LOL  :thatsright:

Let's call them what they are. The Liberals are not pro choice in ANYTHING other than infanticide. Otherwise they want complete control of everything in everybody's life...except for killing babies.

Let them use any term they like and let them keep having abortions. They have already gotten themselves down to about 20 percent of the population with their anti-life stance let them finish the job.

Women are given the opportunity to make millions of choices in their life time, how is it that the liberals think that abortion is the only one that should matter  :whatever:  DUmmies, if any of you have the guts, I would love for you to come over and explain to me woman to woman or man to woman how I am against women having choices, or how I am anti-woman.  I'm currently pursuing a second bachelors degree in nursing and strongly considering eventually pursing a masters degree to become a nurse practitioner- midwife.  Explain to me just how I am against women have opportunities.

I personally cannot stand these wimmen. Typically they hate the idea of religion for the same reason the fairies & dykes do, because in all mainstream religions their behavior is frowned upon and they are pointed out as degenerate and depraved persons.

For these wimmen to become pregnant is a nuisance which must be avoided at all costs and if by chance it happens to trap them then it must be eradicated immediately. They do not aspire to live up to the natural order of life and their prescribed role in it as mothers which has existed throughout history.

The vagina is their well of power, their tool of manipulation. It brings them what they seek, power, money, freedom of leisure, etc. They can't very well be knocked up and tied down to the inconvenience of motherhood for the next twenty years and fulfill their personal aspirations to best all other women and rise to the top, now can they? Of course not. By then they would be old, past their prime and out of the competition for the best men to use.

3. I'm vehemently pro-choice.... But, for all my fellow women who say that this is
   
her choice and one I have to respect, I say BULLSHIT. Maybe about 10 births ago, I might have agreed, but......Even if one could ignore the overwhelming and disproportionate drain on global resources that comes from such exaggerated reproduction, the fact is that WE are supporting these kids. Given the number of little tax deductions (ignoring their tv reality show), their parents are actually making money from all these births. Not to mention the very preventable drain on medical resources.

No, I don't respect their choice. It is unseemly and disgusting, IMO. Sorry to any fellow feminists who feel otherwise, but I call Bullshit.

10. plus, the last one almost killed her. some Mother...
   
plus the older kids have to raise the rest of the quiver. Plus, when you have babies after you are all old and your eggs are drying out, they could suffer all kinds of maladies. Plus, if you were baby number 20, you'd probably have to share your double stroller with your Mom's prolapsed uterus.

22. Where is the "choice" for the older kids--especially the girls--
   
who are destined to become child caretakers and domestic servants in order to free the parents to continue THEIR choice? Where do they go to receive the childhood they are denied?

31. We can set limits on the number of tax deductions they get...
   
Edited on Tue Nov-08-11 09:55 AM by hlthe2b
and other incentives. There are valid social reasons to take away the incentives for such excessive reproduction. If you don't give a damn about the implications of global overpopulation that are very clearly on our threshold, I can't help you. Justifying such devastating excessive levels of reproduction under the guise of "pro-choice" is to turn ones back on the starvation and suffering that will surely come in the future...

49. I think she just does it to piss off DUers. And it's working really well.
   
Many DUers only seem to be "pro-choice" when it's a choice that they agree with.

Definitely not Pro-CHOICE.  Pro-murder, yes.  Anti-birth, yes.  Anti-humans, yes.  But not pro-any-choice they don't agree with.

This really grinds my gears.  Their "clump of cells" defense is bullshit.  And they know we know it.  Technology has proven that.  My niece was 24 weeks pregnant when she was diagnosed with terminal cancer.  She was given the option to abort and start treatment, but she forewent treatment to save the baby's life.  Notice what I said there?  Baby.  Yes, it IS a baby, not a clump of cells.  My niece lost her battle 4 months after diagnosis, but that clump of cells started Kindergarten last fall.  So I hope you will understand why I hate you pro-murder bitches with every fiber of my being.

I am so sorry for your loss and joyful for the gain which resulted.

A "clump of cells" is a human being, PERIOD.
