.. when a 5 week old fetus has a heart?
Hi, Bonzi. I believe in basic freedoms accorded to all Americans, especially our right to peacefully pursue our vision for L, L, and Happiness.
Which means I believe the maternal half of our population has the right to end an unwanted pregnancy which could impair a person's pursuit of happiness.
A free person should not be shamed or made to feel guilty for enjoying our freedom, their right to L, L & H should be respected above all else, including their neighbor's personal religious views.
Another reason I support ending unwanted pregnancies is I spent much of my police career dealing with depressed, angry, frustrated, unpredictable teens and adults, many who were victims of childhood abuse and neglect at the hands of immature, irresponsible teens and young women.
Sadly, our jails and prison are populated by many people who were horrifically abused from birth.
Then I look at the NYS Foster Care Program, noticing there are over 20,000 unwanted children deprived of the real love, affection and discipline most all kids crave.
For me, after two decades of witnessing kids being emotionally abused, neglected and maltreated, ending an unwanted pregnancy is the most responsible, intelligent choice a teen or woman can make.
