You literally said you don't condone it as a method of birth control 2 posts ago. I was with you until you posted this. Close your legs, simple, if not, consequences. Such is life. People aren't held accountable for their actions enough anymore. Why do you think waiting til your married to have sex is such an effective belief? Obviously, in most cases, that will not happen, so you are playing russian roulette. If that bullet gets off, you're dead either way. I don't really think I'm going to convince you of my views, really just has to do with your contradiction. If you believe abortion is fine, I have no right to tell you otherwise, and the law doesn't either.
Sorry you actually said you aren't a fan of it.
That's the donk MANTRA, wide.
NOBODY is responsible. Or, better yet, the GOVERNMENT is responsible. IT's THEIR job to teach me my moral values.

That is why I don't get our "conk" mantra to try and determine some sort of moral code that people should abide by. This topic shouldn't even come up politically, it has nothing to do with government. I don't agree with abortion, but who am I to make a decision for someone else? My entire issue with the Republican party, my party, is in this, and other clearly moral/religious problems that the government has no business in (i.e gay marriage, i don't give a flying FCUK if they receive basic marital rights. Spousal privilege, gifting laws, CST ability, and other spousal privileges). There is not enough certainty in the future of an aborted fetus, and there is no clear cut line in when it becomes "human" (i would argue Hitler was not human, too, as an example) so I don't think the law has any place in it.
I do agree it is the parents responsibility to teach morals, but that was much easier back when there wasn't such filth anywhere. It is assistance to adapt to the times. It was easy to teach your kids about sex when all that was on tv was archie bunker. When a show like the hills, or two and a half men are on, there is a much more difficult task at hand. The minor mind is easilly molded, and preteen sex is at an all time high. It is not as easy as it used to be with as much access kids have to smut. Sorry, but I just don't agree with my fellow republicans on this one.
