thats the best you could come up with?
"whats done is done"?
lmfao. ill try that one next time im in court being held responsible for my own actions. ill let you know how it goes.
something tells me it wont fly...
what does you being in court have to do with it? if abortion is legal where the woman is then whats the problem?
shes not breaking any laws, and its HER choice.
::ps:: so you agree that its irresponsible? oh ok now were getting somewhere. considering that was the only angle i used to begin with...simple acknowledgment of irresponsibility for the sake of employment.
JUST LIKE DRUG OFFENDERS (its their body too...same arguement...yet they get barred from employment...)

Yeah but at the end of the day its done, the girl is pregnant, so whats better for that girl now? to raise a kid that she does not want? when she does not have the means to? when she would be throwing away her studies/career? when she does not have to.
Its HER choice, its HER life.
Yes its irresponsible to get pregnant when you are not planning it, but it is also irresponsible to bring an unwanted child into the world.

Have you ever had unprotected sex? ever? do you know how easy it can happen?
Yes its irresponsible and yes its stupid.
But it is also irresponsible to bring an unwanted child into this world, like i said in another post.
I have never been in the position to consider having an abortion, i dont think i would but thats just me.
I believe it is each individual womans right to choose. I support the young girls who for one stupid mistake should not have to throw away their lives.
edit to add - why does me being Irish make any diference?

Okay so you think its better to have every 15year old girl who gets pregnant to live with her mistake?
give me a break, honestly, 15 isnt even considered an adult, yet you want 15yrolds to become mothers.
what if it was your daughter?

I don't understand why people get worked up over abortion. I mean it's not your choice, it has nothing to do with you and it's also none of your business.

That is the way I think sometimes, but then again in our nation people love to live other's peoples lives, but as soon the child is born everybody scatters like rats, then you get the same people condemning the single mothers for draining the welfare at the expenses of tax payers then you get inundated with propaganda when it comes to tabloids and celebrity sex scandals that are advertised, people feeds on this type of issues.
Abortion is private matter between the women and her doctor or provider and if a partner is around then he becomes part of it also, and should not be excluded. . .

Do you consider the contraceptive pill to be an evil life stopping force then?
what about the 'morning after pill'? do you call this murder also? or do you have a certain timeframe when a baby is considered a baby?
