   Black people don't need white fools hiding arguments against abortion.   
   You want rich white doctors to have social excuses for killing black   
   babies.   
    Babies who will grow up hating rich white folk.   
      
    For you Alan I will send Robert's ideas to Pro-Life groups. I'll do it   
   just because you pissed me off. I get even.   
      
      
    Let me put everything back.

      You're amazing. So what? Being alive is scared to me, to you its not.   
   Its a value judgement. To a Nazi a Jew's life might be worthless, but   
   not to his Jewish victims. To a KKK member the lives of blacks might be   
   worthless, but not to his black victims. I like your reasoning though,   
   since nature has a lot of killing in it, it gives you the right to add   
   babies to it. Why don't we just start killing all the people who trouble   
   society? Of course we'll have to find a method to define those people.   
      
   But your insane logic   There is death in nature, therefore life isn't   
   sacred, this is crap reasoning backed by a lack of feelings for others.   
      
   What is your political agenda Crowfoot?

    You're right about the above ideas. But include, smart people can also   
   avoiding killing babies not yet out of the womb, because a dumb law   
   insists they're not actually alive or human until they leave the womb.   
      
   As though, when babies pass out of the womb, they stop and pick up their   
   'Gee we're now fully alive and human permits'   
      
   I find it amazing you have such feelings for oppressed groups you can   
   identitfy with, but with unborn children ready for life, you feel   
   killing them is natural.   
      
   Maybe I'll enjoy John Wayne movies more now?!

   A fetus has different DNA from the mother or father. Just as any child   
   is different from its mother or father. The fact that the baby lives in   
   the mother for nine months means nothing.   
      
   'Potential person' - what is this? What kind of simple minded definition   
   is this. I'm laughing here. Potential person might be a fetus not yet   
   created. When a guy decides to put on his protection before he has sex   
   with a woman. If she might have a baby that is, without his protection.   
      
   But a fetus already alive, developing more each day towards becoming a   
   grown adult, is potential realized. Once the chemistry of life begins,   
   the life begins. Any word game of defining when anything becomes human,   
   is just that, a word game.   
      
   Your value judgement, nature kills, therefore you kill babies, is   
   exactly how Hitler felt about killing. He also saw killing\dying was   
   part of nature. So killing Jews or Indians for that matter[latter, if he   
   had won, you don't exactly fit that blonde, blue eyed model].   
      
      
   There are many whites who believe that too much money and crime is   
   committed by dark peoples among them. That what they could be, that   
   their life style and nations would be better off, if they just changed   
   the laws and got rid of these people.  It almost never said in public,   
   but in private, its common. So since nature kills, should society use   
   nature as its guide? You think? Or do you think that maybe compassion is   
   another side of nature which naturally comes with higher intellgience.   
   Like dolphins having more kind feelings than ants? Just a thought.

    Dead bodies don't smile. You better catch up on the latest findings.
