...would you really be willing to spend the rest of your life in prison on a murder charge just for the sake of standing your ground on what you believe should be your right? That may be an exaggeration of the likely sentence for an illegal abortion, I don't know, but the pro-lifers here in the U.S. are basically pushing for that. |
I use an expression on another site - which I omitted here, for lack of feature, it is "There is dignity in standing alone when right"
similar sentiments such as "better to die on ones feet than live on ones knees" applies.
I am a believe and follower of the rule of law as enshrined under democratic principles. I will defend the legally enshrined rights of women to decide whether to abort or not. The only way the anti-abortionist will make abortion "illegal" will be by subverting the democratic process. They have murdered in the name of their belief (and attempted to justify it by their perversion of interpretation and illogical rationalism), that puts them in the same catagory as terrorists.
We do not allow terrorists to frame statute, we should not allow anti-abortion terrorists to frame statute.
