Amusing short vid

I don't agree with the march itself. But the video is cool.

I am not Pro-Choice. I am not Pro-Life. I believe abortion is killing. But I also believe there are times when a death is the only answer. The good of the many outweighs the good of the individual.

I also think too many women are irresponsible. There's a classic southern legal defense "he needed killin'." There is a medical diagnosis "too stupid to live." My opinion is that there should be the position "too careless to be trusted with a uterus, let alone a baby."

I think a woman who finds herself needing an abortion for reasons other than fetal deformity or her life is stupid. She is careless and irresponsible. She has failed to control her fertility and her body.

But I won't stop her getting one. I reserve the right to hold her up as a poor example of responsible feminity.

I agree that two incomes are better than one, but I'm not sure it is always a viable option. In my cousin's case, marrying this dorky senior in high school, who is living off my aunt and uncle's kindness is not going to help her other than with the Department of Health and Human Services. I would much rather she be single and happy than married to someone who treats her badly because of HHS. Also, not all single mothers are choosing to be single. What about widows? What about rape cases? There are a lot of reasons for being single and a mom other than just promiscuity.

And actually, cleft palatte (sp?) doesn't qualify her to have an abortion this late. The only way she is allowed to have an abortion in her state is if there is an imminent risk to her health.

I am glad to see that the two of us can discuss this without hostility. My sister in law and I can't discuss anything even remotely politically without getting into a fight. :)

Rape cases almost never go into pregnancy. That's what the emergency contraception is for in the emergency room.

Three years ago I would have said widows were a rare case. Unfortunately we can't say that anymore. My great-aunt was widowed with 3 boys in the 1950s.

Divorce is another reason.

There are many reasons one would end up a single mother. I wouldn't even class it as necessarily promiscuity. My SiL caught her very first time.

This is why I've always advocated reversible sterilization at menearche.
That way one has to opt into motherhood.

That only accounts for reported rapes where the victim goes to the hospital. A lot of women who are raped do not seek treatment for a variety of reasons.
