At what point to we consider a child to have rights? All opponents of my position, answer that question, please.

Well, I'll tell ya what I think (but I don't want to debate this all day).

I know that when a child is born alive, it is alive and at that point has rights.

At what precise moment prior to that it is a life, I can't say. I don't know.

My personal opinion about abortion vacillates. Most often I think it is wrong.

I do know that abortions have a lot to do with what is going on inside a woman's body.

I have always found it the height of presumptive, sexist crap that a man, or an organization of men, feels it has the right to tell a woman what she can or cannot do with her body.

The same man who impregnates a woman and takes no responsibility for so doing and then grows up to legislate that she hasn't the right to assume responsibility for herself is a hypocrite of the first order.

Not until a legislature of 100% women passes a law that says a woman shouldn't have an abortion will I respect a law that is passed by those who are not subject to it.

Combatting legislation without representation is 100% what America is about (remember why we are no longer part of Britain). To my mind legislation on the issue of abortion is unAmerican.

Men should butt out (and yes, I am a man.)

Thank you very much.
