Just this past week there were two events in DC,

One had 600,000 people and one had 1000 people!

The big one was the "March for Life" People of all races and ages were there! Our youth is very pro life by the way! Over %55 are pro life! Great news and there is hope for life!

The little one was for "gun control"

The main stream media gave ZERO coverage to the big one with 600,000 people. Anytime there is 600,000 people gathering for anything, it should be covered big time and logged in as a historical event.

The media bias is palpable and repugnant!

Even if you are pro choice.....you should see this bias and make note of it publicly and denounce the intentions. If you have honor anyways!
Theres no time like the present

A man that stands for nothing....will fall for anything!

All people need to do more on every level!

    I'm not really following your here. In order to have honour, people are supposed to make note of it publically and denounce the intentions? Can you explain this please.

    According to USA today, significantly more Americans — 53% to 29% — want the 40-year-old Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision kept in place rather than overturned. Another 18% have no opinion, the highest level of uncertainty Gallup has recorded on the issue.

    http://www.usatoday.com/story/news/nati ... n/1864051/

    This is a significant portion of the population compared to the number opposed. As a pro-life advocate, what would you say accounts for this massive majority of people who support women's rights regarding this issue?

    I'm not sure where you got your youth percentage from. Could you please post the link?

    You know how you end abortion?
    You avoid unwanted pregnancies.
    You know how to avoid unwanted pregnancies?
    Education.
    ...
    Have another rally and collect 10 bucks from everyone there, then, take that $6,000,000.00 and put it towards educating people between the ages of 13 and 21 that there are servere consequences to fucking without a condom.
    ...
    Problem solved.

  • There have been four glbt marches on Washington and most of the mainstream news ignored them...

    Fox News gave wall to wall coverage on their silly tea party rallies and when two weeks later, there was an equal-size glbt march, they only mentioned it while talking about something else and didn't show a single picture.

    The news can cover whatever it wants.

    Quite frankly l'm sick of hearing about the anti-abortion crowd because they have nothing new to offer, we get it, you want freedom and liberty and the right to shove cameras up women's vaginas and take pictures of the microscopic fetus to force her to look at it.

    But gun control is a very central and topical issue... They're going to talk about it.

    Let me ask you a question (I do agree with your sentiment by the way)... what kind of education is needed?

    I think what he meant to say was that many of the fetuses grow into adults who do not serve the Lord; therefore... in many God-fearing pro-lifer's eyes... they are worthless: sinners who are destined for Hell.

    I think the idea is that the anti-abortion people act like they have this tremendous compassion for the unborn fetus, but then you can often see them lack compassion and concern for people living outside the womb.

    I think it's ok to lump some groups all together and their motivations, beliefs, etc but not others.

    If someone had said that all muslims are hateful, evil bastards, fuck 'em all!!!! How long that going to last?

    Well, we could teach teenagers about birth control instead of "abstinence only" and maybe they would know how to avoid unwanted pregnancies. That would be a skill they could carry with them.

    We also might prevent sexually transmitted diseases with youth, as well.

    Pretty accurate, actually.

    Like I've said... If they really gave a shit about babies and life, they wouldn't support drone attacks in the Middle East and they wouldn't be fight prenatal care for low-income mothers.

    They wouldn't be fighting nutritional and healthcare for babies once they were born.

    This isn't about protecting life, this is about controlling women.

    Very well put

    They could also be taught about the various options they have for birth control. Where to get it, how to get it, how its used. The upside and downsides of the different birth control options.

    Also they could be shown the negative aspects of teen pregnancy and parenthood.

    Perhaps for some, but not for most. But let's never let the truth stand in the way of demonizing an entire group based upon the antics of a small number of crazy people.

    You think most unwanted pregnancies stem from people not knowing about condoms, etc?

    I think this is true for a small portion of the population, but not most. That is why when people talk about education being the solution, while I think it can help, I don't believe it will solve the majority of the problems. People always blame a lack of knowing when most of the time it's a lack of applying the knowledge you have.

    Does a large segment of our educators and parents promote the abstinence mindset over common sense precautions? Honest question, as I never got the former from my health/sex-ed classes, nor from my parents. And, as connected to information as youth now is, how could they NOT know how to get hold of and use prophylactics?

    Thinking out loud here, but I wonder if the whole "don't worry about the consequences of your actions" thing is predicated on the bullshit of "do as I say, not as I do".
