    Actually, many women are forced into having abortions if they are having a girl.

    I don't think populating will be the problem, because there are still 100 female births to every 111 male births, which is just slightly more that biologically normal. It's not like every single Vietnamese baby girl is being aborted.

    This is disgusting to me but it's nothing new. Girl babies have been slighted for much of history. It's the mindset of these countries that needs to change.

    Since commies seem to so highly emulate the automatonic social structure of ant colonies and bee hives, let 'em take the analogy all the way with some sort of female 'Jabba the Hut' at the reproductive center of their stinking 'worker's paradise'.

    I just heard that we're sending 6 million to China to "study the effects of alcohol on prostitutes and pimps". :0) All we would have to do is ASK THE HOUSE AND SENATE, they would already know...ALPEAUX

    Can't we do that study in Navada? I'm sure the House and Senate do know...I bet we can add Governors, too.

    This is why abortion is bad and ALL practices should be discontinued. It will lead to genocide.

    I'd rather these female fetuses be killed while in utero rather than be left in a dumpster somewhere.

    Murder at any time is wrong. One sin is no greater than another. We as a world need to have more respect for human life, no matter what age and ethnicity they are.

    It's still murder. There is no difference as to when in my eyes.
