STFU, Conservatives: Attention Pro-Life (anti-choice) folks, again THIS IS AN ABORTION

abaldwin360:

So, I’m seeing yet another abortion debate popping up on my dash, and I’m sick and freaking tired of seeing “kills babies” and “kill children”.

Get your facts straight, don’t want an abortion? DON’T HAVE ONE!!!!

Number one, you have no right NO RIGHT to tell someone else…

Facebook Status Conversation That I just Had

  • Adam:

    Okay, I think since everyone else put is making a big deal about this gay marriage thing, I'll voice my opinion. Many of you know I'm a Christian. I'm not like most of my brothers in the fact I have homosexual friends. But all in all, all I have to say is... SHUT THE FUCK UP. TO EVERYONE. Marriage is not THAT big of a deal. Why the hell would you wanna be married to one person to the rest of your life anyways? If you wanna be in prison, commit a crime. All this whining and bitching over rights is getting old. Why complain over something we've never had in the first place? So quit whining and just legalize gay marriage already. If more people wanna jump into a death trap, I'll be glad to push them in. But quit posting your ideologies all over the Internet. Talk to your fucking Congressman for fucks sake. God.

  • Adam:

    I'm just tired of everyone bitching about it. It's NOT that big of a deal, and marriage is a church deal. What happened to separation of church and state? The founding fathers and key activists in every rights group that has passed would WEEP right now, because we're letting something like this become such a big deal. It's a STATUS at best, one that I may never live to see if this keeps up, because I don't wanna live in a world that lets something so small split us as a people.

  • Me:

    Honey, I think you're missing the point. Marriage isn't just a church thing. People from all countries and all religions, even the nonreligious, have been getting married for centuries. Believe what you want, but it IS that big of a deal. Marriage is not a status, it's a freedom. Homosexuals have the right to have whatever "status" they want. Maybe to you it's just a piece of paper and a new ID, but to some, it's the ability to start a family. I'm assuming you've never thought about that. I hate to be mean, but only an absolute idiot would think that this isn't a big deal. I'm sure the founding fathers would also weep about not having slaves anymore. Can you justify that one? It's a new day. If you don't want to hear anymore "bitching" about people having equal rights, go lock yourself deep inside of a fundamenalist church and stay there. If you want to live a healthy life, I suggest you deal with it in a more productive way.

What did I think about the decision to construct a “mosque” this close to ground zero? I thought it was a no-brainer. Of course it should be built there. I sometimes wonder if those people fighting so passionately against Park51 can fathom the diversity of those who died at ground zero. Do we think no Muslims died in the towers? My husband, Eddie Torres, killed on his second day of work at Cantor Fitzgerald while I was pregnant with our first child, was a dark-skinned Latino, often mistaken for Pakistani, who came here illegally from Colombia. How did “9/11 victim” become sloppy shorthand for “white Christian”?
