That is the stupidest rationalization there is. First of all, conservatives are compassionate, we just don't agree with you stupid socialists on how to solve the problem. Clearly your way is not working. Secondly, it is you who does not want to be burdened by poor people having babies. So take that holier than thou attitude and shove it firmly up your ass, hypocrite.If any single woman could go out and get a job that could afford to raise a child properly by herself I'd be much much much more open to the pro life movement.In one simple quote, Sister Joan Chittister, O.S.B. sums up the hypocrisy of many in the 'pro-life' movement:
"I do not believe that just because you're opposed to abortion, that that makes you pro-life. In fact, I think in many cases, your morality is deeply lacking if all you want is a child born but not a child fed, not a child educated, not a child housed. And why would I think that you don't? Because you don't want any tax money to go there. That's not pro-life. That's pro-birth. We need a much broader conversation on what the morality of pro-life is."
This quote applies well to many Republican lawmakers who continue to introduce/pass restrictive misogynist laws against woman's reproductive rights. At the same time, the GOP works to shut down women's health clinics, with a special vengeance towards Planned Parenthood (#StandWithPP). You don't hear of these Right Wing anti-choice
Catholic Nun Explains Pro-Life In A Way That Will Stun Many (Especially Republican Lawmakers)
Well said and so true.
I would say the woman is selfish but with how much it takes to raise a child I see why young girls choose to get abortions.
Many pro life people can afford an unexpected grandbaby and deep down they want it. What about the women who don't want it?
Again, if these women could have the baby and lead a comfortable life, or if I thought these women would raise good citizens I'd be more pro life.
Look at Detroit schools. All the white pro lifers don't want their tax dollars going to Detroit schools but they want young poor inner city women having children who will be forced to attend these shithole.
And they are asking poor uneducated women to be smart and safe. Lol.
I need to be frank, I find few conservatives that are giving , though most are hard working, they mainly have not been through much of a crisis in life where they need help and if they do they have the money or means to get themselves out from years of not being giving. (Don't get me wrong a person if they have the means should save and have disability ins and health insurance)
The conservatives want social programs cut so they can save money in tax cuts. Believe me I am surrounded by them, at lunch they talk about the cost of everything and their budget, not about what is happening in the world. A few I quit meeting for lunch because I can't stand it, they have the attitude its not my problem they don't work. Short on empathy.
