On Abortion an issue in Senate races

Gfan:
Thank you
justsomeguy:
About your rather sarcastic comment about prostitution, wow. Did you forget that the women who choose that as their profession, and notice I said choose, are making their own decisions to do what they want with their body? They aren't victims. Once again, their body, their choice and no, it shouldn't be illegal. You want to shut down strip joints too and get more off topic? As far as your "pro-abortion" slogan goes, that's quite cute but very childish. Stick with the topic on hand and stop amusing yourself with all of these "loop hole" questions that you think make you look clever. Not working but thanks for the amusement.

There is no fine line here. Either women are going to lose the right to make their own decisions when it comes to their body or they won't. Exceptions for rape and incest? How would an abortion clinic know if this really occured? Are they going to put women through god knows how many tests just to prove it? Doubt it. For all of you anti-abortionists, it doesn't matter if a woman was raped, you will still call it murder so I don't want to hear that "Oh, we'll make some exceptions" bs. It's the same thing, rape or not, you are "taking a life" to better your own right? If you were never put in a situation such as rape or incest I don't want to hear it. Women have the right to do what they think is right, and it is THEIR life. Yes, the child is another life but look at all of these young couples with far too many kids. They are either on welfare or barely surviving. Is it really worth putting that kid through hell? My fiance's cousin and his girlfriend have 11 kids between them and half the time they can't eat because they can't afford food. They are always getting evicted and the kids have no time to be kids. I know a few people who had to endure abuse because their parents didn't want them in the first place but because of your rants, signs and on-going badgering they were afraid to go to a clinic. You really think that's worth keeping a child alive? There are certain circumstances that call for abortion, and all of you know that, but it won't be an option if we decide to make it illegal. As I said earlier, there is never a fine line when it comes to something like this. Leave the people who may in fact need this option alone and go about your lives. Unless you've experienced one of the above situations or want to go to an adoption clinic that you so often rant about and adopt a few kids, shut up and mind your own buisness.
On Prank by 11-year-old Illinois girl leads to felony charge

Like an 11 year old is going to know what she did was a felony. She probably doesn't even know what a felony is. Sure she probably knew it was wrong but come on, she's just a kid looking for attention, good attention or not. Illinois is just looking to suck more money out of any pocket they can. What's next, a $20,000 fine to every 4 year old who decides to dial 911 because they wanted to see what happens? I can understand if a teen pulled this knowing full and well what they were doing and what action would be taken for something like that but not a kid.

Everyone knows that religion is a very touchy subject throughout the world. People have their reasons and the choice to believe in one religion or another. No religion has the same views and this will never change; it hasn't since the concept of time. Christians and Muslims have very different views on what they call God and what they think God wants them to do. As far as I'm concerned, it would be just as insulting to burn this sacred icon that Muslims worship as it would be to burn a bible for the Christians. Everyone here knows what would happen if we saw a Muslim burning a bible on national television; this country would demand action. We are already at war with the Middle East and actions like this will only piss more people off and cause more harm than good. Yes, what happened on September 11 was wrong and inhuman but going through with such an action would only sink us to their level. Lets not add fuel to a fire that's already ruined so many lives and caused irreversable damage.

jackmo1: I feel horrible for what happened to the girls. When I found out about it, it shocked me and concerned me. No, I haven't been friends with the girls for years and I haven't hung out with them as much as some have. But you cannot deny the fact that both of them were drinking and it was wrong. I don't claim to be a saint but I'm not the one drinking and driving either. I just believe that if the girls were watched over more carefully, neither of them would have been hurt. I did not mean to upset you or insult you whoever you may be, and no I didn't make it to the hospital which I will admit and regret. But I heard details and cringed because I can only imagine the pain they are going through, but they brought it upon themselves. All we can hope for now is the best. I pray that they learn after this and I hope they recover fully. Have a nice day and give them my regards.

I know both girls personally, I'm actually related to one of them. One for sure, and I refuse to verify who, has done this before and her parents don't care, they let her drink. Now she's sitting home with a broken jaw and nose while her friend is sitting in the hospital still in need of surgery and will probably have problems for the rest of her life. I know she will learn, but as for my so called relative, I'm not sure. Most of her family has made this same mistake multiple times and I'm sick of it. My so called step father is a spitting image of why you need to learn this lesson of being able to control your drinking. I'm a year older than both of these girls and that's something I never want to deal with. I saw them both in the hospital and I know what they are both dealing with. In my opinion, my so called relative should be charged due to the damage caused, but we have to remember, she's not the only one to blame. Her friend decided to get in the car and drink with her as well, plus look at what the parents allow them to do. It shows that without good parents to give a damn, kids make stupid decisions that are often costly.

soside4life - By the way, it's just beliefs if you wanted to be corrected. And yes, you are welcome :). Now, I'm done arguing with you about something this pointless. If you want to continue to attack me for getting on your case about attacking others, go ahead. But clearly, that will show your true maturity level if you decide to continue. This space is for important and serious topics followed by serious comments and points of view, nothing more, nothing less. So thank you very much for wasting my time and the time of others with your relentless and immature "ways of expression." Have a good day.

soside4life - One, the 5 year old comment was a mistake towards someone else so why did you bother commenting? It made no sense and if you actually think anyone here believes you to be mature, you are more clueless than I thought. And two, why do you care how I got into it? Like you, I'm stating my opinion and your posts are clearly annoying to more people than just myself. As for an apology, you can forget it. I can read your posts just fine, that's the problem. Your previous posts were bashing on others so why should they have to put up with you? Honestly, grow up and take that stuck up attitude of yours somewhere else, or have your comments deleted completely, your choice. But really, if others besides myself are commenting on your posts what does that say? Change what you say or how you say it, simple. Do you think you can manage to understand that?

On Clergy: Congregations, prayer keep them going
Posted on November 19 at 7:30 p.m. ( Suggest removal )
I can't believe how many of you actually memorized at least half of the bible. Any way, all I'm saying to this is that priests are just people. Should they have a day where they are recognized for what they do, sure. I could care less about this day and to be honest I didn't even know there was such a thing. As far as negative media, nothing new there. I usually don't comment on religous topics but I'm bored lol.
