Why dont you show the angry and screaming pro-choicers at the march.. because that is all I saw there. You should consider showing the other side, the Walk for Life. There was 7,000 ppl for life walking, yet these pictures showed none of them. They were peaceful, and smiling, and only want the best and whats right for women and this society.

"They were peaceful, and smiling, and only want the best and whats right for women"

Fortunately, thats not for you to decide.

With that mentallity, the Nazis only wanted what was best for the Jews, gas.

Listen, there are alot of living folks on my block who are poor and hungry. If you want to be pro-life, why dont you help change the system for the living?

Is for women to sit down, shut up and have you tell them what they should do with their own bodies, as if they were children.

I wish I had a nickel for every child in the US whose been neglected and abused. You see, after they're born, the right to lifers wash their hands of it.

Hey Liz,

How do YOU know what's right for women and society? Shouldn't women figure that our for themselves?

God gave women brains and souls and the ability to bring life into the world.

Don't you think if God can trust women with the ability to make decisions about their bodies that maybe you should trust God on that one?

Maybe you have turned all your decision-making power over to some flawed man who interprets the bible for you. But some of us choose to follow our own understanding of God's path for us.

So back off. We'll make our own decisions about what's right for us, thank you very much.

God gives us free will to choose because he wants us to love him by our own will and sacrifice so we may abtain heaven.But if we wish to abtain heaven we must fallow his commands. The fifth commandment "Thou shall not kill". We(pro lifer's) are just asking you not to have an abortion because that is a human life inside of you no matter what people say and everyone deep down inside knows it is. The term fetus is just a recent term.Nobody in the in the past would ever think that the child in the early stages wasn't a child. It isnt because of recent discoveries of science. Actuelly that is more of a reason to know it is a child. You can see the child formed in the early stages to have arms and legs and a head everything our bodies have but on a smaller scale by our new technologies. Just one last thing to think about every says look at this tragedy a war a tsunami 200,000 people dead. So many more people die by abortions ,millions on millions. HOPE YOU TAKE A LOOK AT THIS GOD LOVES YOU ALL SO VERY MUCH!!!!
GOD BLESS YOU!,PHIL

Honey, if you are just asking that's fine. Ask all you want.

If you are thinking of passing laws prohibiting abortion, that's another thing entirely. That would not stop abortions, obviously, but it would cause many women to die of unsafe illegal abortions.

Which is it?

c'mon c'mon, calling a woman a strumpet is degrading. i figure you might be baiting me, but i wanted to err on the side of you being a pro-lifer that's severely unaware of what respect for life means post-birth.

see, lots of folks try to make those people who are irrefutably alive live happily. i respect the opinion that a fetus might constitute a life, but i was raised christian and i figure that biases my judgement -- so i don't want to force my conclusion on anyone else.

fortunately i've done enough bible reading to know that the very worst that humanity has to offer comes out when the government claims to be the moral arbiter -- so i'm gonna do all i can to keep morality our of legislation.

pro-choice, pro-jesus, pro-non-judgement.
