Yeah, I agree.

Wow, I didn’t know that the abortion #’s were that high. Whatever happened to birth control? The Catholic church doesn’t condone it but they probably would prefer that to abortions.

I believe the courts have always looked at abortion to save the life of the mother under a different light, even before Roe v Wade. When rape and incest is brought up, as they always are. I believe rape and incest cases are very low. The last year I found numbers for there were over 800,000 abortions. On a different search I found that less than 1% of abortions are attributed to rape and .5% are linked to incest (USA Today). My point is that if we keep abortion legal there will be over 800,000 babies aborted so 1,200 rape or incest victims can have that option.

What would you decide if the life of the mother was at stake? The question of rape and incest is also tough – to force a woman to relive the horror and violence for 9 months would be cruel. They could give up the baby at birth but what would that do to the mother emotionally if forced to do so. This one is tough for me because I don’t know if I would have been a strong enough person to handle it. But it would have been equally tough to actually have gone through with an abortion too – there would have been a lot of guilt.

Thanks for your input. Real quick I believe the babies life starts at conception. Because of that belief I do not believe any abortion is acceptable. The border wall certainly would not stop all illegal immigration, but it would stop a large amount of it. The anti-police movement is just craziness in my opinion., but it is strong and, mostly, backed by the Democrats.

Border wall – I don’t know if it will stop illegals from coming into the country. We have to take a strong stance against illegals coming here, just like other countries.

Support of police – It seems to be popular to bash the police in the last 10 years or so. It’s like politicians are afraid of telling the truth about police officers. The police have made mistakes but is not indicative of systemic racism. God help us without them.

Americans seem preoccupied with the need to be popular both within our country and around the world. We need a strong president. Biden seems wishy washy. Trump is abrasive and rude. Biden seems like a nice man but would not be a strong president. I don’t like Trump but he has done a good job getting things done. So who to vote for??? By the way I like what you write. You make us look at topics that are uncomfortable and make us think.
