I vote pro-choice because I have never met a candidate for elected office who knew what was best for my life and my future better than I did.
I vote pro-choice because I trust women.
I vote pro-choice because it's wrong to turn doctors into criminals.
I vote pro-choice because religious convictions about fetal personhood have no place in the laws of my state or my country.
I vote pro-choice because tens of thousands of women die needlessly each year from illegal, unsafe abortions.
I vote pro-choice because the global gag rule is absolutely shameful.
I vote pro-choice because Supreme Court justices Roberts and Alito scare the bejeezus out of me for a whole bunch of reasons.
With that in mind, I vote pro-choice because it's not just about abortion.

So I'll take it that you never vote Democrat then.
I vote pro-choice because I trust women.
But you don't trust the fathers.
I vote pro-choice because it's wrong to turn doctors into criminals.
This is a word trick. Nobody would "turn" doctors into criminals. Doctors save lives. You're not talking about saving lives here.
I vote pro-choice because religious convictions about fetal personhood have no place in the laws of my state or my country.
As if abortion was purely a religious matter. Get real. We're talking about matters of life and death here. Such concerns matter a great deal to those of us who aren't religious.
I vote pro-choice because tens of thousands of women die needlessly each year from illegal, unsafe abortions.
Where? Who? You're talking about third world countries where people still live in mud huts? Where are these tens of thousands of women?
I vote pro-choice because the global gag rule is absolutely shameful.
As if abortion and welfare money our government gives to other countries were one and the same topic. They're not. These are two separate subjects.
I vote pro-choice because Supreme Court justices Roberts and Alito scare the bejeezus out of me for a whole bunch of reasons.
Huh?
With that in mind, I vote pro-choice because it's not just about abortion.
Well that's obvious. You've made it about a bunch of things.
All of the above. And then some.
Abortion is murder, and the harmful effects on the women who have them and the studies that prove this are buried by this multi-billion dollar industry.
You vote pro-choice and you cause another woman to hate herself for the horror she's committed.
40+ million of them and counting.
I was actually sort of considering replying to the first comment until I got to the 'people in mud huts' bit, when I realized it's useless to respond to either of you.
So, thanks for sharing your opinions and have a nice day.
That second comment made me think of Heart of Darkness. "The horror, the horror!"
Why do I feel like many of the people who comment here, while not living in mud huts, may be living in one room country shacks? You be careful there in Montana, Anna.
Why are the crazy people only replying to my post? Life is unfair.
It's probably because you're totally awesome and they're threatened by your awesomeness:)
Yes K, since I don't agree with you, I must be po unedjumicated country folk. :(
I don't think I ever said you were uneducated. Rather, I was insinuating you were crazy ala Ted Kaczynski. He had a PhD! :)
I'm going to go ahead and say I don't believe you.
I am also going to discontinue talking to a person that thinks everyone that disagrees with them is either crazy or uneducated.
God bless.
Buh-bye.
I guess the 'one room country shack in Montana' joke isn't as obvious as I thought. Ah well.
Yeah, I'm "crazy" for thinking that 40+ million deaths is unacceptable.
Crazy me.
Thanks for showing us how serious you are about this topic. Now here's your cue to blissfully blow off any criticism of your sick views.
