Speaking as a man, abortion is not a procedure I could have, but my wife said it was not a choice she would make.
So does that make us pro-life?

(42,641 posts)Even absent the factor of imminent death, my position is the same. It is her choice, and if she wishes to involve others in making that choice, that too is her choice.

I like the clinic that has a sprinkler system on remote that has 360° coverage of the sidewalk and lawn.

(7,886 posts)Apparently their lawn dries out fast so they have to spot water constantly.
