Shayne turned me on to a great blog and Cecily did an excellent job explaining why she's pro choice right here. I'm sure there are thousands of other great blogs out there today. I'll also recommend this site and this one and of course this one.
I'm pro choice because I trust women to make the best decision for themselves. Best, not right or wrong. I think the decision to have an abortion is very personal and should remain private, between a women and her doctor and whoever else she chooses to involve. I know some women who are very anti choice because they regret their abortion. I can't even count the number of women I meet who regret giving birth. There's never going to be an easy answer, so if you don't like abortion...don't have one. Better yet, don't have unprotected sex.
People are not free unless they're allowed to make mistakes.
Every situation is different, every pregnancy is different and the consequences are different for everyone. I'm pro choice not only because I demand the right to decide if and when I'm going to have more children but also for Mandy and KK, and my boys and the millions of other men, women and children on the planet. We all deserve control of our bodies, if nothing else.
Here's a photo of my parents from a counter protest at PP on Good Friday last year. How cute are they? Now, let's hope there are some cute boys at the Rock for Roe show tonight!
