Please post here if you feel the need to debate this complex, controversial issue. I am sure you will convince someone of something.

Unfortunately, this is one of those "debates" that invariably boils down to "I'm right and you're wrong", and nothing of value will come of it. I'm staying out of this one. |

Yeah, no good can come of this. virginiamom rivals anything that we saw from baselinejournal etc.
Hoyatalk: it's not just for sane people anymore.

If only she also had a strong love for Roy, obsession with Florida, a strong dislike for our pointguards, and a UMCP alumn, she could become the ultimate troll. Such an unholy combination might crash the internet. |

I'd love it if this thread ends up being about nothing.
Back in high school, just after the Planned Parenthood v. Casey decision, abortion was just "the" political issue. I remember it being a huge discussion that dominated many a discussion in history, U.S. government, and even English classes. Everyone had an opinion, and no one agreed. What I remember the most, however, is that my friend Suzanne and I--who disagreed on just about everything and would argue incessantly just for the sake of argument--agreed that when it came to abortion, we had no opinion because it was too murky, complicated, sensitive, personal, and, I might add, well beyond our understanding or experience as 17 year olds.
A dozen years later, I still feel the same way. I'm convinced that Kang and Kodos had it right:
"Abortions for all!!!!!" " BOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"Abortions for None!!" "BOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"
"Abortions for some, tiny plastic American flags for others?" "YAAAAAAAAAAAY!"

I am sure Virginiamom has nothing whatsoever to do with the Georgetown community. She was just stopping by between tasks of spending hours honing her twisted imagery and buying some ammo for the next Paul Hill. |

Don't blame me. I voted for Kodos. I don't know HOW you could vote for a woman. Let alone a Quantam Presbyterian one!!! |

Just remember, if Bill Clinton were still in charge, 40th trimester abortions would be legal.
Granted, I imagine Liane Cartman can be pretty persuasive. . . .

My opinion on abortion is quite simple. I will never have one.

I would like to abort Virginiamom. Wow. Just, wow. The invective you all dealt Virginiamom goes far beyond anything she had to say. |

She did compare those who support abortion rights to Hitler and slave traders. And she damned a servant of God. Nothing Christian about her choice of words. Nothing at all. EDIT: I do agree with SoCal, however. We should all keep it civil. |

Also, I'm not even convinced that "Virginiamom" is a real person, given that she joined on the day she posted, only posted once, and hasn't been heard from again.

Is she Agent Smith? HAVE THE MACHINES TAKEN OVER ALREADY?  ? (I know they would be opposed to abortion; they need humans for fuel) Whatever the case, I agree that she's lying about her name. For shame. She's not like the rest of us, is she Mr. Tables?  |
