For or against abortion mischaracterizes the debate - That is not the question. There are many issues involved here - but very few would say "hey, I am FOR abortion."

I agree. In general principle-no. But I think I understand the caveats.

sorry...the question as posted on the poll has a redundancy issue.

 

 

"are you for or against abortion?" yes or no?

 

well....whatever.

 

I am willing to stick my neck out on the line and say I am against abortion in any circumstance.

Thanks for the hint. I was slow on the uptake.

 

OK, I vote no.

I am for it only in the case of rape. Other than that I say get protection, my answer then will be no.

Ditto for me. It's not as cut and dried for everyone. In the instance of rape, abortion should be an option. A rape victim shouldn't be forced to deal with her rapist for the rest of her life. Either thru the baby or thru the rapist wanting contact or visitation with the offspring. But I do not believe abortion as birth control should be allowed either.

Well, yeah...I was thinking this was a trick question out of a PPP board !@#$. Then I realized both of these have actually been intelligently debated over the last few years here...then I realized there hasn't been any intelligent debate about anything since Kerry got nominated (with the exception of Mickey, but he's slid too...)

 

My cat's breath smells like catfood....

The question needs to be re-worded...

 

Are you FOR or AGAINST abortion?

 

Yes - of course I am either for abortion or against abortion. I happen to be against abortion.

 

However, this is one of those not black & white issues.

 

Are you for abortion in the case where the mother's life is at risk?

Are you for abortion in the case of incest?

Are you for abortion in the case of rape?

Are you for abortion in the case of developmental deformity?

Are you for abortion in the case of financial distress?

Are you for abortion in the case of parental disownership?

Are you for abortion in the case of mental distress?

Are you for abortion in any and all cases?

 

Me => Yes, No, No, Depends, Absolutely Not, No, No, NO !!!
