"I have always been against abortion!" You are male and do not qualify for an abortion unless you are not telling us everything. So your statement is as meaningless as it is disingenuous. You are in favor of allowing someone else to have an abortion for any reason at anytime, are you not? Therefore, while you would not kill the child personally, it's fine for others. You are most definitely NOT AGAINST ABORTION in anything even approaching, a meaningful way. <Since you have already demonstrated your disgust for the lives of the yet to be born, handicapped, and can't even imagine that they could have or even bring joy into this world> If you can construe my joy, then it's fair for me to see your disgust as being aimed squarely at the handicapped themselves. The clear implication of your disgust is shown in the fact that you do not consider a handicapped life to be worth living, and you would abort it where you would not do the same to a "NORMAL" child. BTW The statement you made re; " the issue has nothing to do with Blacks or Jews or Nazis. You really have a hard time discussing an issue on topic, don't you?" Is totally Germane to the subject. You say you would not kill another person. Both Blacks and Jews were killed without repercussion, because they were considered to be non-persons and somewhat less than Human. This is exactly your argument for allowing abortion on demand. The Fetus (according to you) is not a person and therefore can be disposed of in any manner and for any reason desired. I would say that's right on topic. You just don't like being associated with Nazis and slave traders. Who can blame you?
