Dubya hunts, too. I thought I heard about him shooting a flock's

worth of birds. Like many so-called pro-lifers, he shows a callous

disregard for post-fetal and nonhuman life.

 

I was at a pro-choice vigil in front of the Supreme Court yesterday,

and one of the antis was carrying a sign asking something like " What

are you doing to stop the slaughter? " Gee, I went vegan; I figure

that saves 80-90 lives a year right there.

******Surprise! There are actually people who are both Vegan and Pro-life.

Every life, human or animal should count. As Robert Cohen mentioned in three of

his newsletters including one of his latest, " I believe in Abortion " , even

unborn humans deserve the same respect from Animal Rights Activists as animals

do. It doesn't have to be one or the other. It can be both. (Doesn't mean I

like Bush because I don't; no matter who becomes the next president, there are

so many people in the background manipulating that there is no way that person

will be able to do everything the way they want it done or the American people

who elected them wants it done).

 

The saying on the sign is your typical underhanded, backstabbing way of

getting a message across. Even PETA is guilty of such ways of getting messages

across. It is not a very appealing way to get people into your " movement " by

slamming them in the face with words that are, shall we say, hateful?

yeah, well, I'd wager most of THEM eat meat. I value actual lives

over potential lives, and I believe that abortion should be safe,

legal, and rare. I believe in preventing unwanted pregnancy in the

first place, as do many of us in the pro-choice movement. Many so-

called pro-lifers oppose all repro choice for women, and that

includes contraceptives. And there's something terribly wrong with

people who can scream about the sanctity of life one week and support

capital punishment the next.

 

Besides, the 1.5 million or so abortions every year can't possibly

compare to 10 billion sentient land animals brutalized and

slaughtered. That's more animals killed in one day than pregnancies

are ended in a year. But I saw a bumper sticker at Pangea that's

right up your alley. It reads " How can you be PRO-LIFE when you eat

DEAD animals? "
