6 year olds carrying anti-abortion signs

[MMDad]

I like your MPD better! I know it too! To easy!

Wow, you are the first person here to confuse me. Who do you think my MPD is? I give Vrai and Admin permission to disillusion you if you'd like to ask. My only MPD was when I first joined, messed up my email, and had to start over. If you are accusing me of something else, please elaborate.

Since you are a Bills fan, you probably aren't able to form coherent sentences, so I really don't expect a response.

I think you get it. Express your opinion to me, but don't force your opinion on my kids.

The worst thing about this whole issue is how the holier than thou types push people away by being so arrogant.

Yeah, leave the kids out of it.

 

[Fred Hoeck]

I'm a little late, but I'll get my two cents in. I think they can protest what ever they want, but I do agree that it is wrong to have your kids out there holding signs. I remember when I went to private school they had all of us sign a petition against abortion. Looking back I think that was an awful thing to do because you are just not informed enough to make that kind of descision at that age. I think I was 10-12. I have many horror stories from there though and that is a whole new thread.

If 12 is too young to learn the consequences of sex, when! 12 is old enough to get pregnant.
Would any of you have complained if we were protesting segration in the 50-60's? or slavery in the 1850's?
Do not hide behind children demonstrating. Children see much worse on T.V. nowadays.
It is informative to see how many people would be happy to see another killed. Already many children who would be born with a handicap are killed, are handicapped people not of value? Will some court, 50 years from now, legalize the killing of born people with handicaps? You may laugh now, but who would have thought 50 years ago that abortion would be legal up until delivery? Who would have thought that old people could be euthanized as in New Orleans? Think about that before you are so quick to condemn people with the courage to take a stand.

Wow, you are amazingly ignorant. The issues here are: When should my child be exposed to certain information? Who should decide when that exposure should take place?

The answers are: When they are ready for it and when their parents determine that they are ready.

You have decided that all children shall be exposed to your views, regardless of their parents judgement. That makes you a pompous ass.

And there you have it -- straight from the mouth of a (former forced) street-side protestor! You simply cannot expect a child -- much less one 6-7 yrs old -- to grasp the depth of the message displayed on that sign. You wouldn't give a child that age a job, keys to a car, a credit card ... how do you expect them to understand something like abortion/sex/pregnancy/reproduction? :shrug:

The REAL reason these folks have their kids out there (but are afraid to say it) is to add shock/guilt to their message ... they are parading their kids around like "Look, we didn't abort ours so you shouldn't either." There's no other justifiable or responsible reason to have these children out there on the side of a busy road.

Think about that before you are so quick to condemn people with the courage to take a stand.

I'm not condemning you for taking a stand (even though I think it's stupid). I'm condemning you for subjecting young children to adult content -- plain and simple.

 

[MMDad]

Crabcake, I'm not allowed to give you any more green right now. Thanks for being reasonable. I just wish the anti-choice Nazis were rational enough to realize that they are hurting their cause.

I just want to say shame on the churches and parents that allowed their children to stand out in the cold yesterday to support a cause that they should even know about!

These are not my words but the words that started this thread, and you have twisted that attack on me and mine, into an accusasion saying I am telling you how to parent when that is precisely how this started and what you persist in doing. Remember you can't so,lve a problem with the same thinking that started it.

Projection. What you are so upset about I understand to be others telling you how to parent your child. That is exactly what you are doing telling the parents of the children who were there that they should not have been. Do you acknowledge this fact?

What they wanna do with their kids is their business. :shrug: So long as they don't go to school and talk to my kid about it, I don't care what they brand of they brainwash their kid with. :shrug:

But yes, I DO think that 6-7 year olds have no place out there on the road at an abortion protest. But it's from a common sense standpoint ... not a crutch under my left armpit called "religion".

 

[MMDad]

Arrgh! I still can't give you green!

 

[crabcake]

Arrgh! I still can't give you green!

It's okay ... I gave you some instead.

 

[kingpl2]

We all have to live with the personal choices we make in life, good or bad, or what some think is right or wrong. Personally, what I decide to do with my uterus is my choice.

Catchy phrase but incorrect. The hippocratic oath was changed to abort the life. It still contains text referring to "do no harm" and one may not legally request a doctor to remove any normally functioning part of the body. This topic was part of the oral arguments of Roe V Wade.

Yes we all have choices, and every choice has it's own built in consequences. Your choice legally should end where another innocent life is involved. I can legaly curl my finger unless it happens to be on a trigger attached to a gun pointed at another human.

I don't understand your response. Do you recognize you are doing, what you are condemning?

THIS ARGUMENT ISN'T ABOUT ABORTION! START ANOTHER THREAD!

Ok, when I was 12 it was 1985. Just so you know, I was raped by a teacher when I was 12 at this Christian school, the same people that cared enough about kids to stop abortion paddled me and said I was lying about it. Nice, huh. This private school is growing tremendously now and it makes me sick. I guess they only care when your still in the womb.

 

[kingpl2]

"The Bible contains enough but not all" This a quote from you. This means that you think that the Bible is not complete. And you portray youself as a Christian?

Please recall there were Christians for hundreds of years before there was our Bible as canonically expressed. Do you call yourself a Christian?

 

[kingpl2]

You said (your) God decides what is right and what is wrong, then you say that it's okay for you to make that determination, as well. Quit backpedaling and throwing out the God-speak in a discussion that is NOT about God; it's about the inappropriateness of your message on a group that is still learning how to tie their dang shoelaces. If you can't understand or grasp that, then I pity you AND your children.

And hear me clear on this: You are NOT part of my family ... I wouldn't have someone like you around my child to warp and brainwash her mind.

If you are part of the speceis Homo Sapiens whether you like it or not we are family. It is a scientific fact we are all at leaset 52nd cousins based on number of people on the earth today.

 

[crabcake]

I don't understand your response. Do you recognize you are doing, what you are condemning?

There are two different perspectives from which I derive my response.

1) Do I agree it's appropriate for those kids to be out there? No, I don't. Why? Because it's unsafe for children that young to be on the side of the road. That's the 'common sense' part of it and that's the part that I do think I have a voice in ... as a citizen, as a parent and a driver. There's no rationale reason for children to be on the side of a busy road -- period!

2) Do I think it's appropriate for 6-7 year olds to be involved in an abortion protest (let's say in a park near a church or something)? No, but that's for those kids' parents to decide. And I'm not going to tell them what they should/shouldn't brainwash their kids with, so long as they don't take that to school and discuss it with other kids. :shrug:

What's so hard to understand about that?

 

[crabcake]

If you are part of the speceis Homo Sapiens whether you like it or not we are family. It is a scientific fact we are all at leaset 52nd cousins based on number of people on the earth today.

In that case, I hereby disown you. So quit forcing your beliefs on me and my child.
