Ron Paul Supporters ONLY: What do you think of abortion?

Are you against it only in limited cases? If so, what are they: Life/health of the woman? Rape? Incest? Under age? Inability to care for or financially support a child? Father is missing? The family already has 3+ children? Failure of birth control methods?

Are you against it under any circumstances?

Is it necessary because of world overpopulation?

    As a Ron Paul supporter I understand that my political affiliation need not dictate my personal beliefs. I support personal liberty across the board, even when I would not make the same choices in my own life.

    I am a 23 year old male living in Louisiana. I believe it is a personal decision that any woman should be free to make under any circumstances. I think it is irresponsible to have children that you are unable to support but I understand their are other options and do not feel that it is my place to make that decision for anyone.

    There are other methods of birth control that I think should be primary solutions. If by any means a woman becomes pregnant and does not wish to carry the child they should have the right to make whatever decision they choose.

    I personally do not hold this as an important issue. Any changes to existing laws regarding this matter would have very little impact on my personal life or well being. If given the opportunity to vote I may vote to ensure women have the choice to make the deicision for themselves. Aside from that, it is not a topic of much concern for me.

    I'm pro-life.

    My only exceptions would be Rape, Incest, and life of the mother.

    Against abortion. Once conceived, a human life deserves equal protection under our Constitution.

    Roe v. Wade is outdated. Medical science has proven that these are babies being killed every day.

    In case you're not already pro-life, check this out, it will make you rethink your position

    Its murder, there are no circumstances where murder becomes acceptable.
