It is such a complex issue that I do not see any way that it will ever be resolved to the satisfaction of all.

Killing kids is pretty black and white. A D O P T I O N!!!! Easy answer, win-win for everyone.

What kind of economic impact would this have had if 22.8 million more American workers were in the work force?

How many new prisons would we have had to build? How much more drug and violent crime would we have had to pay for? How many more special ed programs for the ineducable? How much more in welfare costs? How many more Walmarts would we have to endure?

Last I checked, killing kids is considered murder everywhere.

Matt-

I would agree. My brother did adopt three bi-racial kids and I respect him for that. He is now rather sick and two of those kids look after him as much as they can (they are adults now). However, my argument would be that there are too few people like my brother. So many mouth the words that they are against abortion but are unwilling to help beyond bumperstickers and carrying protest signs.

odd that most of the people doing the murdering and claiming it's their choice have vaginas.

I'm wearing black today because it helps hide dirt.

Add in, what would the unemployment rate be?

So if abortion = birth control, because it is too expensive to take care of the children that were unwanted, unplanned or just not perfect in societies eyes, why stop there.

Why can't we just get rid of people that are a burden on society or that are just unwanted?

Bob, I could be wrong, but isn't there a waiting list to adopt babies? It's always been my understanding that everyone wants to adopt an infant, and it's the adolescents and teenagers that have trouble finding homes.

Do you have kids?

Maybe there would have been drivers for those school buses to rescue C Murder & his posse from Katrina!

[Rikao4]

I believe that if men could conceive...you would have a much higher # of abortions.

I think if more people saw them there would not be a debate.

Exactly. Why are the "pro-choice" people so afraid of a woman or a couple making a more informed choice? Why are they so afraid of people seeing what it is they are aborting? Simple. Because the "pro-choice" crowd does not want emotion to enter this important decision; if it did, they would "lose". It's more important to that crowd that they "win" the debate than it is to allow people to make informed decisions.

This thread is going to be a burden on the BBS. It needs to be either:

1. aborted
or
2. put up for adoption, hopefully picked up by Rennlist
