Quote from drjekyllus:
How much does a pack rubbers cost? Really, most the 'poor' in the US have widescreen TVs, two cars and a DVD player. Lets be real.
If they have a widescreen TVs, and two cars then they are not poor. There are kids sleeping without dinner and shelter drjekllus.
Second, if you are poor in an urban area there are countless free clinics where condoms are distributed for free.
That is when you factor in the education component.
So once again, if contraceptives are so great why all the abortions?
At same point people have to be responsible for the decisions they have made.
13 years old girl + lack of education + lack of support = a pregnancy.
Snuffing another human life to relieve your responsibilities is not a valid answer.
You guys confuse me! You support a war that kills hundreds of thousands human lives yet you are opposed to a woman right to chose to end an unwanted pregnancy!
Education? Are you claiming that poor people in America do not know that if they have sex they can become pregnant? Really? How the hell did primative people pull it off? They didn't have any sex ed classes. You mean to tell me primative people could pull it off, but we can't. Personal responsibility is the key.
I really don't understand the reference to war. Two completely different subjects. If you don't know why they went after the terrorist who did 9/11 then I don't know what to tell you.
As far as poor is concerned. There are no poor people in America. Bottomline. Go to a real poor country and see how people are living. I have seen entire families with 3+ children sleeping on the sidewalk with their parents in the middle of the night in other countries. That shit does not happen in the US. Believe me, I have been to shithole cities in the US that democrats have run into the ground and you flat out don't see that. The poor argument is just another excuse to remove personal responsibility from the equation. It doesn't fly.
It all boils down to personal responsiblity. This society has lost all sense of the idea. Its always someone elses fault. Someone burns themselves with coffee, its Starbuck's fault. If you get pregnant its the education systems fault, or it was because you are poor. Now there are people killing their entire families and its the economy's fault. Terrorist go and blown up 20 people and its because we weren't nice enough to them. Get real, take responsiblity for yourself and don't live life on the fruits of another man.
