16. Birth control??
Do you use birth control? That is interfering with life, too. When do you draw the line? I do NOT support abortion. I support CHOICE. The difference is not just a sophism. I believe that every precaution should be taken to prevent and unwanted pregnancy. I believe that REAL sex education and not just abstinence should be taught to our children. I believe that all safe methods of birth control should be available to women and men. BUT if a woman has gone through all of that and finds herself pregnant, I cannot see how I can tell her whether she should have that child or not.

I am anti-death penalty until we can truly prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that someone has done the crime they are accused of. It is truly horrific to think that innocent people have been put to death. If you can PROVE somebody did some heinous thing, I am all about weeding them out of the gene pool.

What about the hypocrisy of alcohol and tobacco being legal?? You think we should decide between abortion or the death penalty, I think you should choose between alcohol (one of the most 'expensive' drugs by far for this country) and marijuana.

And, uhhh, yeah, I have thought about it. Have you??
