The people who say they are against abortion but support a woman's right to choose...here is one way to show how dumb that is....

Mike Adams - Why Johnny Is Only “Personally Opposed” to Abortion

3. Next you will seemingly change the subject by asking him, “Are you personally opposed to child rape?”

This part of the conversation will be brief. He will say “Of course I am” or some variant of that terse phrase – usually while he is shooting you an annoying look for asking what appears to be a stupid question. Of course, it isn’t a stupid question. You are laying a trap and he is walking right into it.

4. The obvious next question is, “Would you be willing to impose this belief on others by banning child rape?”

His answer will, of course, be “yes.” Nonetheless, you may want to reinforce the point and solidify the direction of the conversation by making him acknowledge that preventing people from raping children is a question of objective morality rather than some matter of arbitrary preference. It is more like the simple question of whether the state should prevent Jews from being gassed than the question of whether the state flag should be red or blue.

5. If he doesn’t yet concede that he has lost the argument ask him, “Why do you believe that rape is more serious than murder?”

He may still be so obtuse that he doesn’t yet get it. If so, slowly explain to him that he thinks it should be illegal to rape children but permissible to murder them – even though he “personally opposes” both child rape and child murder. You can now close the argument by contrasting his position with your clear position that the law should ban both the rape and murder of children because both are forms of child abuse.
