Δαφνη Ευτυχια Αρθουρος

Instead of having the book thrown at some hapless woman who leaves her newborn in a trash can, I would prefer to see that the 87%+ of US counties which currently have severely restricted to nonexistent access to abortion have services provided or restored; I would prefer to see "conscience clauses," which allow medical professionals to restrict women's access to contraception or family-planning information (on the grounds that the medical professionals themselves disagree with the existence of such technologies), scrapped; I would prefer to see comprehensive sex education in US schools, as is done in just about every other industrialised Western country; I would prefer to see a US government pushing science instead of "faith-based initiatives" as a basis for its public policy...

To me, to do the former, rather than all the latter, is blaming the victim in the rankest sort of way. People who do that sort of thing need help, not punishment.

Then again, since you're a marginally literate religious type (with a penis and a public opinion about abortion) who rants about liberals, misunderstands the purpose of "free speech," and hates the ACLU...not to mention who cites personal anecdotes to support his arguments without citing facts to back them up, I wouldn't expect you to understand the thrust of my argument.

I'm also not a US citizen (thank goodness), and I'd be perfectly content to let you lot go to wrack and ruin on your own, if it weren't that you'd take the entire rest of the world down with you when you went.
