Abortion, yes or no?
I support abortion, and not just for rape, incest, or mother's life. Ladies relax, I am not judging. I want you to give me a reason why Tax dollars should pay for it. I have Christian friends that say, "I don't want my tax dollars paying for it. My tax dollars are mine and if they use my tax dollars then they make me part and parcel of the abortion." Just as I support your right, to make this decision about your body, I also have to try to relate to them and their side. Don't fool yourselves into believing that the abortion fight is over.
Before you make the stupid statement, that you think that I am anti abortion I will tell you that I am old enough to be father to some of you and grandpa to the rest. I well remember the days of no illegalized abortion. I have been in the medical field most of my adult life, I have a wife, daughter, daughter in-law, and granddaughters and have no wish for them not to have a reasonable choice.
Answers like it is my choice and I can only make the choice about my body, or no man should have a say. The truth is that men are going to have a say whether you agree with that or not, Christians are going to say Your choice but don't have me pay for it. So what do you tell them? Justify the tax dollars being used, or would you be in favor of no public funds to be used for abortion?

A reason tax dollars should pay to remove an innocent life? The ONLY reason, I can give for this is that the mother's life is at risk and chances are in favor that if the pregnancy goes any further that both lives will be lost. I guess that would be considered a medical emergency in my book and would make it ok to use our tax dollars.
Rape victims are a gray area. I can see where they would want to abort the baby. However, I feel other options like the morning after pill and adoption should be considered first before making the decision to abort the pregnancy. As to whether or not, our tax dollars should pay for it? Again, that's a gray area. I'd have to think more about that before giving an answer.

Although I find it sad that abortion has to happen, I also feel I have no right to tell someone that they can't have one. It is a free country or at least it used to be free.
