46. "Mommy, why are you killing me?"

Fri Jun 8, 2012, 04:18 PM

Jun 2012

This was posted by an anti-choicer in a discussion on the War on Women. People were discussing the forced Ultrasounds, and the BANNED Ultrasounds and gag laws on doctors for "problem" pregnancies where a woman might abort a problem pregnancy.

Some woman posted that, and this is what I answered her.

Why am I killing you? It is because you are killing ME. I have just as much a right to life as you do. Your older sister is screaming at me, "MOMMY, please don't DIE". Her life means nothing? Your Daddy doesn't need a wife? You are never going to born from my Fallopian Tube. Blame GOD, not me, for that one. However, if I did die, your younger sister would never have been born. Maybe SHE was meant to be born, and you WEREN'T?

Neither that woman, nor anyone else, answered what I posted.
