Interesting semantics how you immediately emotionally label it 'murder'. Anyway, yes they can and no I don't.

I guess you also support the choice of those parents that killed their born children, too, right?
Wow, massive strawman fail. Really? That's the best you've got?

Their beliefs, their choices, right? What's the difference?
The difference is the law. It's not complicated.

What, you think people against killing children should not be allowed to have any? Really? Besides which, a lot of people DO adopt. Being against murder doesn't mean you should be willing to have all the victims move in with you, does it?

Yes, I understand a lot of these people don't care, are not smart enough to not get pregnant in the first place, and so forth, but making it legal to kill off any babies that result isn't helping anyone.
The place to start is in teaching self respect, moral values, and abstinence. Yes, it can, and does work. Since people were told they could do as they please, the increase in unwanted pregnancies has skyrocketed. When teens start learning that they do NOT have to go around having sex, that it isn't "acceptable", those rates drop.
If they adjusted the law to allow killing "infants", or "toddlers", would you still support it?

Nope, killing another human being, not in self defense, is murder. It's wrong, no matter what the law says. The laws used to allow slavery. If they did again, would you be alright with that? Not quite as simple as you want it to be. And no, not a strawman argument. Killing your child is killing your child, no matter what he age. I guess you have no issues with babies born alive, from botched abortions, being left to die either, right? I mean, the law protects that. As it stands, you can now legally kill your child, if that child is at the "fetus" stage. If they adjusted the law to allow killing "infants", or "toddlers", would you still support it? You have yet to explain WHY you agree with the law. If the only argument is that it IS the law, that's not a very good argument.

'If you disagree, then you are stating that murder is acceptable if the victim falls within certain guidelines.

Not sure I can take you seriously after this statement.

Well are you out there teaching self respect, moral values, and abstinence? Whose job is it to do this? The states? The families? The teachers? I'm pretty sure people within the united states are well aware of the wide range of morals they may choose, but they're still heavily influenced by their surroundings. To put it bluntly, you can't teach idiots.
Look at the idiot in this video. She seems to come from a good home, nonetheless! Some people simply don't learn, period. Those people tend to end up in situations like this....where they do stupid things, and don't mind the consequences.

I didnt say they shouldnt be allowed to have any, did I? Dont try to put words in my mouth. Yes, I think if they think something is a problem then they should stop being a part of that problem. What have they done for these babies? For these mothers that are having abortions? Have they done something to help the situation besides complain? Besides harrass?
You're right a lot of people do adopt. But let's be realistic.......most of the people who adopt are people who are unable to have their own children, not abortion activists.
And yes, If I'm against murder and would like to save someone from being murdered I would allow them to move in with me to save their life.

Oh pulease, come down off the cross will ya? Babies get killed all over the world for different reasons...you gonna save them too? How about you pull a ole chinese lady and adopt 35 kids from the trash heaps in China and raise them as yer own if you cared about unwanted kids. You do that and I'll shut up and stop giving you flak.
Think of it as culling the herd...I know that sounds cold, but in this day and age where parents are too stupid to live in the first place, maybe women who abort are doing them children and society a favor.
The good doctor was right in a sense, not how he put it, but in his assertion that an unwanted kid is just as bad as a aborted one. Fact of the matter is...its not your body, not your kid, not your choice. If more people would just pay attention to themselves and not the personal actions of others that only effect that person..this world might actually be a neat place to live in with much less BS we'd have to put up with.
I know one thing is for sure, if we did mind our own business, we'd have less nosey neighbors driving around shooting people in hoodies because they were too nosey for their own good.
You might think your part of a solution somehow, but believe me it just seems that way.

I read an article from the Oxford Journal of Medicine where doctors are already presenting acceptable cases of "post birth abortion" to be legalized. So it's coming, just a matter of time. God help us all. I don't want to live to see that day.edit on 8-8-2012 by lonewolf19792000 because: (no reason given)
Hospitals have a responsibility to the public to make sure that doctors are practicing good medicine, through the process of fair and unbiased peer review. However, Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte abused this process to discriminate against Dr. Ron Virmani because he was born in India. On September 1, 1995, they kicked him out of the hospital after a very secretive sham internal peer review, labeling 24 of his patient charts "problematic". An expert of North Carolina Medical Board stated that Dr. Virmani met the standard of care. Dr. Virmani lost his ob-gyn career and his professional standing. He and his family suffered tremendously for 16 long years and still continue to suffer.
