First Post!
by Maarten Goldstein, Aug 18, 2000 6:13am PDTFriday, almost weekend already. Gonna replace my 3 year old 17" screen tomorrow, as currently I'm still running in the stone age resolution of 1024x768. Dont know yet whether to go with 19" or 21". Also for the Dutch readers (since I know we have them :) ), are there any stores here that sell the Microsoft optical mouse that is made for use in either left or right hands? I saw one in the US but didn't pick it up assuming they would be here too but I haven't seen any yet.
And yes, that comments search is really coming..

"If she doesn't want it... then... she shouldn't be forced to keep it."
Wait. Right there. I respect your opinion on the issue, but don't you think that if the woman didn't want it (the baby), then she shouldn't have gotten pregnant in the first place?
By the way, I see where you are coming from during the rest of the comment, but that one line struck me as "Duh!". If she doesn't want the child, too fucking bad. There is a time to choose whether or not she wants the child, and if it comes down to "I think I'll remove it from my body now", the that time has already passed her by. Thank you for allowing me to analyze your message.

Abortion is a no-win discussion. Period.
However:
Abortion becomes "a choice" once you convince yourself that it's not a baby that is living inside of his or her mother. In order to do that, you may have to refer to the child as... "a rabbit"... "a tissue"... whatever you want to call him/her. But, how can one convince themselves of that...? It's certainly not a tomato in there... it's a child. Also, at some point in the future, the child may not even need a mother to be delivered after conception due to innovations in science. Personally, I'm against the killing of babies... no matter if they are one day before birth, while they are being delivered (partial birth), or one day after birth... in my opinion, it's still murder. Lastly, whenever a society is largely based on being selfish, not accountable for their actions, greedy, hopeless, or pleasure centric; abortion becomes some sort of demented form of contraception under the label of "choice".

I read a study once that linked the Roe v. Wade decision (early 80's) to the decline in violent crime starting in the mid nineties. This wasn't speculation, these people were serious and had evidence.

It comes down to whether you believe the potential for a child is the same as a child... and when you believe a fetus becomes a human.
There is a point where it certainly doesn't look very human like..
The real question is, at what point does the baby become an independant entity from the mother. If it's ever the same entity, then, at that point, it's fine to abort the baby because it's the mother's choice.
Right now, I'm basically pro-life, pro-choice.
I think abortion is wrong, but I also think that having the child live could be just as wrong.. a friend of mine was "pro-death", he thought more babies should have been aborted because of the horrible lives they would lead.... I think that's true, in some very rare cases.
I don't really know when a fetus is a human. If it's at conception, then.. theoretically, murder laws should cover it. But it's not CERTAIN when a fetus is a human... does that mean abortion should be illegal? Infanticide?
I'm not really sure. I don't have a solid answer for this one, but, as long as the child is within the mother, I do feel it's HER choice. It's her body, and for about 9 months, she basically has a parasite growing within her... If she doesn't want it... then... she shouldn't be forced to keep it.
In times of incest, especially, I'm actually pro-abortion in cases of incest... I think there's enough freaks walking around without an inbred retard added among them.
What I do hate is how women think men shouldn't be allowed to have an opinion on this.
That's so ridiculous, if anything, men will be more rational, because we have less emotion tied up in it.

Yeah..I want to elect a president based on his abortion beliefs. *sigh* Because he might apoint a supreme court justice who might return the favor of being appointed by banning/allowing abortion *another sigh* Aren't there more important issues?
Clancy's book "Executive Orders" was a pretty good read on all the crap a president has to go through like this.
