I have every right to dislike babies. You don't get to dictate. Troll.

Also, overpopulation kills.

Your arguments are fallacious, 'fallacy' being incorrect argument in logic and rhetoric resulting in a lack of validity, or more generally, a lack of soundness.

Aren't your Birthright buddies missing you by now? (BirthRight/Crisis Pregnancy Centers--noted for deceptive advertising, manipulating women with fear, and pushing religious extremism. CPCs have been reported to disseminate false medical information, usually but not exclusively about the supposed health risks and mental health risks of abortion.
CPCs are typically run by pro-life Christians according to a conservative Christian philosophy, and they often operate in affiliation with one of three non-profit organizations: Care Net, Heartbeat International, and Birthright International.)
