“I stand with planned parenthood” bans off

I was surprised as well.

Have you considered the possibility that maybe their feelings on the subject have changed and evolved as they grow older?

They raised money for the organization through a t-shirt sale just a few years ago. So I doubt it very much.

I doubt very much that now they are suddenly against women's rights

Maybe the band just thought it was another email about the fan club singles, and ignored it.

fucking lol

I bought one, but I really dislike the grey color. Pink on black, white or blue would have been better.

Be cool if they did another round of those shirts. Missed out the first time.

My better half had hers on last night. She loves it. If Pearl Jam wanted to release a new design they'd definitely get me to buy her another one.

Also, is that really considered an evolution? Seems more like a devolution.

 Actually, in the strictest of terms, abortion IS "de-evolution. How could mankind, or any species, have evolved if their offspring were not allowed to live?

Devolution in thinking is what was meant, I think.
Man has made decisions that end human life every day for thousands of years.
Women need the right to make decisions about their health and life. The band will always support that.

I’m sure the bands position hasn’t changed and they are very much pro choice.

So, you are officially the spokesperson for Tim S., who made the statement that I commented on, and for Pearl Jam, too? 

If the person was officially the spokesperson for another user, why would he/she use "I think"?

Not too long ago Jill Vedder posted Ed during unplugged on mtv writing “pro choice” on his arm and told her daughters that their father was fighting for women long before they were born and how proud they should be. Not sure about anyone else but the Vedders seem to still support PP and women no matter what.

Well, I'm glad we are able to have friendly and civil discussions about a heavy topic like this. I believe in abortion rights for women, but with some sensible time limitations. There are many people that think that a full-term baby should be able to be aborted literally the day before it is due to be born. I just can't agree with that extreme position. And, I'm always confused by statements like: " ...fighting for women...". My question is, who is fighting for the baby woman, i.e. the full-term baby girl, who has no voice whatsoever in this decision and will never get to be born and become a woman? Doesn't anyone care about her?
