    I read about the first incident of this several days ago and considered posting a thread about it. But after it happened a second time, I had to bring this to people's attention. This is inexcusable.


    Also notice how the president of Respect Life and the president of Students for Life in America are both female. It's time our society stopped belittling women who have the guts to stand up for the unborn. I'm tired of seeing these women being disrespected by hypocritical people who claim to be "pro-women."

    """", university administrators have assured members of Respect Life that the incident is under investigation and that their right to free speech will be respected and protected."""

    "under investigation means they don't know who did it.


    Gee, I guess that is supposed to equal murdering a doctor , something Anti-Choicers promote.....


    The only people who "disrespect" women are those who insist that women have no rights concerning their own bodies and consider women as nothing more than brood stock.

    Clearly this means that pro-lifers must be right about their stance on abortion.

    Case closed. Call the press. Someone vandalized some displays and now all pro-choicers must answer for it.

    Exactly, and firebombing clinics and maiming workers. I have no doubt that if I were to display a pro-choice sticker on my car, it would be stolen, and my car would be keyed or worse.

    to a point I actually agree with you (surprise!!!) these misguided pro-lifers certainly have the right to free-speech and as such with the relevant permission to display these things and it is certainly not acceptable for those that do not agree with them to destroy there display, if it was me I would set up a display right next to them giving the pro-choice side of things .. though where I do disagree with you is your attempt to paint the whole of the pro-choice "crowd" with a very large brush (see you title for what I mean) .. if you can do this, then one assumes I also can do it and therefore must assume that all pro-lifers are in fact murdering scum like Scott Roeder.

    Yes it is a sad reality that there are women who don't seem to understand that they are fighting against themselves. I would be interested to know the religious stance of these women and whether they have been indoctrinated to believe that they are little more than breeding machines and accessories to some man.

    Pro lifers do not believe that women are nothing more breeding machines, or are objects. I dont believe that women are inferior to men, or are worthless. However, women have certain obligations and responsibilities that men don't have, which is what u pro choicers dont understand.

    But you believe more burdens need to be placed on them than men and that they must have more obligations and responsibility than men. That is not equal.

    Why do Anti-Choicers not respect women's right to their own bodies?

    Guess the ONLY freedom they're worried about is their own.......

    Why are you avoiding answering the question in the post you quoted? Makes it so obvious you can't.

    How about growing a spine and answering:

    As far as the free speech issue goes, it's pretty obvious to me. The left's relationship to free speech is strictly transactional. They are in favor of free speech to promote their side, and oppose it if their against the message. That's why the left was pro free speech in the 60's, and oppose it today. There are very few Voltaire's on the left now days.

    Which 'anti-choicers' promote this? Some, most or all? Please be specific and provide some kind of evidence. I'm pro choice myself but it's illogical to resort to this kind of smear.

    Then why didn't you simply say "Why are you implicating all pro choicers? Don't paint us all with a broad brush" and then stop there?

    Anyone who uses extreme rhetoric promotes it. Bill O'Reilly often called Dr. Tiller "Tiller the Killer," before he was murdered.

    We are all posting what we want here. Do you expect your posts to be free of criticism from others? That seems a bit hypocritical, doesn't it?

    That is due to God or evolution, whichever you prefer. sucks cause being able to pee in the yard is such a time saver.

    as for the op, that is fine that they do not respect the rights of anti-abortionist because I have zero respect for them in in way shape or form whether or not they damage property.

    Perhaps but this misses the point. Bill O'Reilly is a single individual. Plenty of individuals of all political stripes will say some pretty nasty and extremist things from time to time when tackling a variety of issues. My focus was on the one statement that implied that all pro lifers promote killing abortion providers. I merely asked for some clarification and evidence to support the claim.

    Are you as a pro-lifer trying to enforce a law onto a section of society that would not be enforced onto the other members of that society?

    If you are then you are not treating all people of that society as equals, and let's be honest that is exactly what you are trying to do.

    and who is it that says "women have certain obligations and responsibilities", you .. hate to break it to you Sam that no person is chained to what you think their obligations and responsibilities should be.

    Begs the question, yet again, prove there is a right to life?

    what the right to reside inside another person . .a right no other person has
    the right to use another persons body without consent .. a right no other person has
    the right to inflict continuous injury without consent .. a right no other person has
