Quote from BSAM:
You're confusing and over simplifying these issues, brother AK.
The correct answers are two-fold:
1. Don't get pregnant.
2. If you do, don't expect others to handle your responsibility.
Yeah, accidents do happen.
So does responsibility.
The difference is that responsibility ain't no accident.
(I apologize to the Obama administration and any liberals reading this post for my use of the offensive word: responsibility.)
A woman, poor, unemployed, single, addicted to drugs, is the mother of two that have been taken away from by the state
finds herself pregnant. What's the responsible choice here?
I'd say it's terminating that preganancy rather than playing craps with the child to be. The woman doesn't want another kid and decides to get an abortion, clinic or back alley.
A woman, single, with a graduate degree and a mid six figure paying position at a prestigious company finds herself pregnant. (Lucrum, she is one of those dreaded limousine libtards)
She swore never to have kids. She is going to get an abortion. She'll do it here as long as it remains legal, or she'll abort in another country. If she doesn't want that kid, she isn't going to have it and putting up hurdles isn't going to stop her. What are you going to do, institute a global ban on abortion and force every woman who becomes pregnant to have a child? Good luck with that.
No matter what administration is in place, no matter how responsible society as a whole becomes, the above scenarios will play out for ages. BSAM, your just say no answer is impractical.
And as it does not even remotely deal effectively with real life situations, it is not, in my opinion, a responsible position to take.
However, if the two hypothetical women decide to have those children, no one can say they cannot. It's their choice, not mine, not yours.No one told my ex-wife she had to keep our babies or not. We made that choice. We planned for each pregnancyand kept every child, save for a heartbreaking miscarriage.
My personal solution: Put sperm on ice and have a vasectomy. A single man's insurance policy.
