Response to my letter from my Senator


I am not very pleased with the response I got my from Senator (Please see post below). I am disheartened by his view on abortion and health care.

I already know all of you are anti-choice and my goal is not to belittle your views. However, after much contemplation (approximately 5 years) on the issue, I have decided that anti-choicers come in a few varieties: The Uninformed, The Willfully Ignorant, The Stupid, and the Nutbars.

My Senator falls under The Willfully Ignorant. "The conscience clause allows doctors to refuse to perform abortions in most circumstances, if doing so conflicts with their views". I have expressed my outrage against doctors who express their political beliefs to their patients enough times, so I'll skip that part. Willfully Ignorant people refuse to believe that abortion is necessary health care for women. They are people who believe that women use abortion as a form of back up birth control. They are the ones who don't want to do the research to understand why abortion is health care. They are the people who make me the angriest, because they are usually women.

I try to ignore the Stupid people. They have "compelling" arguments such as, " If you spread your legs, it's your fault." There is no reasoning with these people, so let's move on.

The Uninformed are just that. They are not aware of the issues and have not been exposed to them. They can sympathize with a woman who gets pregnant as a result of being raped, but doesn't really understand why she would want an abortion. They usually consider themselves to be Pro-Life because they wouldn't have an abortion but they think it should be between a woman and her doctor. (This actually makes them Pro-Choice.) These people tend to be pretty quiet and don't necessarily have much of an opinion on the topic.

The Nutbars are the Jesus fanatics who show pictures of aborted fetuses to 6-year-olds.

I am really disgusted that women's health care is a political issue. My uterus is not my government's business. I do not believe that a fetus is a child. I do not believe that a fetus has a soul. The government is trying to force this belief on all of us.

My question to you is, what happens after the baby is born? Do you really think it's going to be happiness,rainbows and love all around? No. Do you think all these children will get adopted into affluent and loving homes? No. There will be more teenage girls throwing newborn babies into dumpsters, more children in foster care, more abused children, more children living in poverty and more women dependant of welfare and government handouts, which I know all of you hate.

There are too many unwanted children in this world as a result of abortion bans. Child abuse pisses me off and it could be prevented with safe, affordable access to abortion care. For those of you who think abortion is the ultimate child abuse, you can consider yourself to be in the Stupid category.


Abortion is health care.
