This woman's sign is clearly winning....

[Playinghardball]

[Bernardo de La Paz]

1. Win.

[kardonb]

10. wingnut

grumpy old man on the left , smiling young lady on the right . This foot says it all .

[SunSeeker]

2. K & R

[Phentex]

3. His sign is just stupid...

I am glad she made one to counter it!

[sarge43]

6. Worse than stupid

I'd like to hear what he'd say to a woman suffering an ectopic pregnancy.

[RVN VET]

7. It would depend on whether it was his wife or daughter

If either of them it would be "Help her, god damn you, she's suffering!"

If it was anyone else it would be "It's god's will, kiddo, so stop screaming and praise the lord."

[sarge43]

8. No doubt. Hateful creatures. nt

[Merlot]

16. If it's gods will someone suffers, why can't it be gods will that someone have an abortion?

Someone should say "I had an abortion because it was gods will" and watch the heads explode.

[WillyT]

4. K & R !!!

[HughBeaumont]

5. Another counter -

"It's Easy To Be Pro-Birth When You Couldn't Care Less About What Happens to the Baby"

[PatSeg]

9. Exactly

Once "born", you're on your own - that whole self-reliance thingy they like so much.

[Blanks]

20. That's when you're supposed to start pulling yourself up by your bootstraps.

Just before you have any bootstraps.

[PatSeg]

32. Yeah

Maybe they need more babies born so they will have more people to look down on and ridicule.

[BlancheSplanchnik]

30. and when the birthing woman is just an incubator to you.

These are some great counter punches.

[idwiyo]

11. K&R

[Arugula Latte]

12. It's easy to be anti-choice when you lack a uterus.

[Cha]

15. Too easy for them. They're anti-choice and anti-feeding hungry

babies and children.

[PatSeg]

33. Sex is a choice too (for the most part)

Maybe some of these guys should consider "choosing" not to have sex. That would certainly prevent a lot of unwanted pregnancies.

[Arugula Latte]

34. I went to a huge pro-choice march in DC (in 1992)

The most popular guy there was standing holding a sign that said: "Men who don't support abortion rights can go fuck themselves." Women were cheering the guy and patting him on the back.

[PatSeg]

35. Well, that sums it up beautifully!

You rarely hear the subject of "men" come up in any discussion of pregnancy or abortion. Its like the women got pregnant all by themselves. Then women are made to somehow feel guilty. What the hell!

[Blue Idaho]

13. The truth is a beautiful thing. nt.

[TNNurse]

14. Damn

When his granddaughter was pregnant by a black or latino man....he would drive her to the clinic for an abortion. He is as phony as they come.

[Moostache]

17. Someone needs to ask him how many adopted children he has...

To me, if you care so deeply about children and unborn lives, but have ZERO adopted babies that you care for and raise as a matter of principle...well, then I kindly invite you to have a nice tall glass of "STFU!!" and get back to me after you DO adopt a few unwanted pregnancy children. Otherwise, men like that need to stay out of women's uterus and reproductive issues, period, full stop, no pun intended.

Like so many on the religious right, this issue is NOTHING about the child or the life being "saved" and EVERYTHING about control and punishment / slut-shaming women incessantly. They don't really care at all about the welfare or existence of the child - if they did, there would be howls of protest DAILY about the state of the public schools and the lunch programs that in some cases will be the only warm meal that a child receives. They care deeply about the fact that a woman had sex - either by choice (Read: the slut was throwing it around and DESERVES a pregnancy to teach her a lesson) or by force (Read: that slut was dressed provocatively and should have known better and had it coming to her for refusing to be modest like me, the pregnancy will teach her a lesson and punish her for such choices too).

These Luddites and prudes can all STFU and either start massive adoption and child care initiatives or just admit they are truly anti-women and anti-choice because it lets "those undeserving women get away with sex".

Many of these same mewling jackasses were the ones demanding to "show me the birth certificate" as well...so, my retort is simple: "Show me your papers please." (Adoption papers that is...)

[OnyxCollie]

21. +1. nt

[nadinbrzezinski]

22. They are starting to adopt

As a way to save children and live a full pro life existence. The problem is some of those kids are taken from loving families in the developing world. (Rates of US adoptions are very low)

[BlancheSplanchnik]

31. right on!

[Iwillnevergiveup]

18. I see this yahoo's RV parked behind him

and a good thing he's not far from home 'cause he looks drunk to me.

K&R for a photo that tells the tale.

[mountain grammy]

19. Old fool, checking his watch, must be Miller time. The young lady nailed it!

[Amonester]

23. It's easy to be an a--hole when you are not the one being harrassed.

The look of that dumbf--k wingnut under the white cap is priceless!

[2ndAmForComputers]

24. Is that Kurmudgeon with a baseball cap?

[cui bono]

25. The only thing wrong is she uses their term of "pro-life" when that is not what they are.

I wish people would stop using their terms. They are anti-choice. Period.

[Deep13]

26. George Carlin had a rather cogent observation on this subject.

He asked why all female pro-lifers are women you would not want to fuck in the first place.

[duhneece]

27. It's easy being anti-choice when you can't get pregnant

When you're not one who can get pregnant, it's so easy to be anti-choice.
ANTI-CHOICE...let's not use 'their' framing of 'pro-life' (which they're not) ever again.

[WinkyDink]

28. Hers needs to read "Anti-choice."

[SidDithers]

29. I've always maintained that ridicule is the best way to deal with asshats...

Idiots like anti-abortion guy in the picture, or the fuckwits from Westboro should be mercilessly mocked. Expose them and laugh at them. Take away their power to influence.
