privacy must change also love. That's why I mentioned the cyberspace laws.

To the abortion topic...
My friend is giving a speach about it tomorrow in her speech class. She said some strong words. And she showed pictures and facts. Its crazy what the babies look like after whatever happens to them. She also said there are 9 methods of abortion. 9 METHODS!?!? Why are there so many just to kill a baby who never had a chnace to live.
Who knows what that baby would've amounted to. Imagine if you weren't here because your were an aborted baby. People would miss out on what you have to give. If you've ever considered an abortion, or are, consider adoption instead. Give the child of GOD a chance...

Well the abortion rally in Washington this past Sunday was quite entertaining. I hope President Bush is listening to them.
-
thats what i dislike most about it. the governent does everything they can to limit abortion because some people dont like it. if you dont agree with it, dont have it done, but dont limit the choices of other people because of this
-
Yeah, saw it on the news. I changed the channel. hahaha.
-
I saw it in person. It was great.
-
Bah! I can't change the channel then. lol
-
Was the rally Pro or Anti Abortion?
-
It was an abortion rally, so prochoice. But there were prolife people there too. Including women who had abortions and regretted it later, they wore black for the death of the child they aborted.
-
I"m still very against abortions...I mean, just find a nice family to adopt them...don't take away an innocent childs life...
-
An abortion rally will not change the opinion of people most of the time.
I'm still prolife.
-
And I'm still pro-choice!
-
does anyone seriously expect a rally to change anyone's mind? there are gay pride marches all over the world. the only people i think of today as having problems with gay people arent the misinformed but just the permanently ignorant. do you really think that some old guy, who has sat in his chair his entire life and just thought "I really hate those damn bufftie boys" is seriosul going to change his mind when a large group of g-string wearing gay men go walking past his house, he is really go to stand up and say "By golly, ive been wrong this entire time. there REALLY is nothing qwrong with gays it was all just in my head"

You're expressing your opinions and making them known and that's what counts or matters.

Alright, I feel as though I need to contribute here, seeing as everybody here loves my posts dearly .I do not believe that abortion should be legal - not because the fetus is living or anything like that (we kill living things all the time; trees, for example, that would be much more useful to us than another baby here or there). I think abortions are bad in general because people made stupid mistakes to get the conception to happen (see below for involintary sex). These people should be taught a lesson. If they are given the option to have an abortion, than they will see that as the 'easy way out'. In life, if you shoot someone, there isn't a way to bring them back, and you will be punished. I think the same should apply to abortion aside from the punishment (having a baby that you dont want is punishment enough). If you are doing Marijuana and you become ill, you will be punished after being hospitalized (if they knew it was from marijuana, which, is almost impossible for them not to know due to all of the recent advances in the medical field). Life is that way, there should be no execptions (aside from below).I think that there should be special laws passed to grant a woman who is victim of a rape to have an abortion if she so chooses, because of course she had no way to prevent that.Of course, bills are quite hard to pass in Congress, so I don't know how long it will be before they resolve this issue ZM

Anyways, I don't think teenagers should be having sex nowadays before they can get on their feet. This is not ancient Rome or rennassaince England where the girls and boys would frisk at the age of 13 . People, get with 2004, we are much more sophisticated now, so act like it.

Oh and by the way, if anyone was wondering, I'm neither left wing or right wing, I'm more of a socialist. But if I decide to ever vote when I'm older I'll vote democrat.
-
Socialism is as far left as you can go without being Communist (left-wing extreme)
-
Communist is very ANTI-socialist. If you want one piece of evidence, take a look at the pre 1947 germans. They were socialist yet they ABHORRED communism. Absolutely disgusted by it, you see. This is because of the Russians being communist and the germans were fighting them, and because of the benefits of a socialist society. Sadly, socialism is very difficult achieve in purity and almost always fails because of lazy people. You can have a Socialist republic, I know it sounds crazy, but it could work with the right leaders and people.
