Fuck your "pro-life" anti-abortion, pro-gun, anti-white privilege arguments.

217. I agree with the above poster

And frankly, I tend to not delve into this discussion on here out of respect for the nature of the board. I don't think this one issue makes me any less of a democrat.

That said, I honestly hate this debate under any circumstance. Remove the nuts and I think one of the problems is that people refuse to accept the fact that someone may have rational perspective for where they come from.

I understand that many people don't see it as a life and see it as a woman exercising her right over her own body. I also understand that some people see it as a life and cannot support what they perceive as murder.

My view is that I don't know. Decades ago, a fetus was not viable until 30+ weeks. Today, it is not uncommon for a fetus born at 24 weeks to survive with little or no long term detriments. Who knows what the future may hold. I don't think the need for medical equipment for one born early precludes it from being alive any more than an adult needing medical equipment is still alive. Given that I don't know when it becomes a life, I struggle with the possibility it could be murder. This is why I oppose most wars, why I oppose capital punishment, etc.

Hopefully, I don't get blasted or suspended for the stating this. Like I said, this is the first (and probably last) time I will share this here (again, out of respect for the board). I apologize if I offended anyone.
