    "The only moral abortion is MY abortion..."

    If those who are anti choice really and truly believed that abortion is murder then among their demands there would be a demand that women who seek an abortion be charged with attempted murder.

    Because deep down, they want that option too. Anyone who hasn't seen this article (linked to my signature, below) about pro-lifers who go so far as to curse the clinic staff performing their own abortions really should--my jaw hit the floor and stayed there when I read it.
