It's nothing I am ashamed of.

It is a choice I made - and have never regretted.

My only regret attached to this issue is that women are still being told that choice is not theirs to make.

"My only regret attached to this issue is that women are still being told that choice is not theirs to make." Same here. I am getting less tolerant of anti-choice views all the time. This is 2015, not 1715.

I get so sick of all of this "pro-life" propaganda.

I really think people with no lives think they have to run (or ruin) other people's lives to be happy. That must suck.

Peace, NanceGreggs, and enjoy what is left of this weekend!

I won't bore anyone with the details either. Cuz doesn't matter. It's a right and it's an important one to protect.

that had an abortion before I met her. She told me that her best friend said she (my girlfriend) was going to hell for getting an abortion. WTF? I asked her, "and you're still friends?" She said she was because she agreed with her friend. This time it was, WTF!!!??? Are you serious? "Yes I am," she said, "because I'm Catholic."

Oh, how wonderful to be religious and brain washed.
