I fucking
hate when people try to negate this position by saying that the two are
mutually exclusive.
Pro-choice should mean pro-choice not some absolute moral position. There is a huge difference between your
opinion and what
law should dictate.
I guess this is comparable with the pro-life folks who heartily endorse capital punishment or welfare reform for that matter...
I think there is a general tendency for people who don't want to deal with other opinions to call them vague when they allow for complexity. It's silly for anyone to assume that I'm going to try to make my opinion expansive enough to make someone like dman happy when easy controversy is all they're after.
There is a reason that my "stance" on abortion is purposely vague. I don't have any right to tell anyone what they should or shouldn't do about something that will never biologically happen to me. I will fight to the death for the right of total idiots to express themselves however they choose. Why is this so hard to understand for the conservatives? Is it some moral superiority inherent to colonial theism or just mental density?
