    I'm of the opinion it's a private matter. That should be done on their dime, not mine.

    It is NOT our responsibility to fund your want for an abortion or contraception. It's life. If you WANT something, go get it yourself. Do not make others pay for or help fund YOUR "needs." If you're putting yourself at risk for pregnancy, then you're obviously responsible enough to PAY for your preventative needs. It is not my problem and I wouldn't want my hard earned money wasted towards something I disagree with!

    because everyone deserves a second chance. also, controlling fertility is very important to keeping the population at a manageable level. having loads of unwanted babies born is also not good for the taxpayer (if that's what you care about) because babies born to teen mothers are statistically more likely to become criminals and end up on benefits. so if you wanna do what's best for the taxpayer, make sure young women have access to contraception and abortions, or you'll be paying to raise the generation that you caused to be born

    because it's better than funding welfare for each of them which costs 1000X more!

    I"m not liberal but while we're spending money to kill innocent civilians overseas who don't suck up our tax dollars in welfare, we might as well also fund abortion and reduce our welfare bill 1000 fold.

    I have always bought my own birth control which is condoms. If I chose to abort, I have to pay for that too. My body is mine and my responsibility.

    Let us never for get what has given the use the pills and ways to carry out Abortion these people are backing ?

    http://youtu.be/PsOC3UWBgLs

    In the 1930s, Japan's notorious Unit 731 carried out brutal experiments on the population of recently-invaded Manchuria. Whole villages and towns were deliberately infected with plague, and sufferers were dissected alive.

    Prisoners of war were shot and operated on without anaesthetic so army doctors could practise field surgery. In World War II Germany, concentration camp doctors like Josef Mengele selected twins and Romany prisoners for obscure medical experiments, and killed enemy prisoners in low temperature or high altitude tests, supposedly to protect their own sailors and airmen.

    After the war, many Nazi 'Doctors of Death' were brought to justice. But in Japan the head of Unit 731 cut a deal with US intelligence; the Americans knew they could never replicate biological data gained through experiments on humans. There are suggestions the US used Japanese bio-weapons in the Korean War -- but America began to suspect the North Koreans had their own unorthodox methods: brainwashing US prisoners with drugs.

    In the 1930s, Japan's notorious Unit 731 carried out brutal experiments on the population of recently-invaded Manchuria. Whole villages and towns were deliberately infected with plague, and sufferers were dissected alive.

    Prisoners of war were shot and operated on without anaesthetic so army doctors could practise field surgery. In World War II Germany, concentration camp doctors like Josef Mengele selected twins and Romany prisoners for obscure medical experiments, and killed enemy prisoners in low temperature or high altitude tests, supposedly to protect their own sailors and airmen.

    After the war, many Nazi 'Doctors of Death' were brought to justice. But in Japan the head of Unit 731 cut a deal with US intelligence; the Americans knew they could never replicate biological data gained through experiments on humans. There are suggestions the US used Japanese bio-weapons in the Korean War -- but America began to suspect the North Koreans had their own unorthodox methods: brainwashing US prisoners with drugs.

    It was the start of a chemical arms race, reaching its peak in the 1960s and '70s with LSD as the mind-control secret weapon of both sides, intended to cripple the enemy without firing a shot. The US showed drugs experiments in army-sponsored TV documentaries, while in Czechoslovakia -- the drugs laboratory for the whole Eastern Bloc - the state-controlled movie industry was enrolled to shoot surreal feature films portraying the drugs experience.

    Besides biological and chemical weapons, both Americans and Soviets routinely exposed their own soldiers to nuclear fallout in A-bomb tests. According to General Jan Sejna, the highest-ranking military defector from the East, the Soviets even tied living prisoners of war to stakes as human guinea-pigs in their nuclear tests.

    The film has a moving and shocking interview with a Japanese doctor who operated on unanaesthetised prisoners. A captured US pilot is seen making an apparently false confession in Korea. A Czech military chemist explains how chemical weapons are deployed, and a victim of a drug-fuelled interrogation describes the experience. The man who debriefed Czech defector Jan Sejna describes the terrifying network of experimentation behind chemical, biological and atomic weapons. The Cold War is over, but weapons development -- and testing -- continues

    It is a personal choice on what type of contraception to use, or not use. taxpayers should not be paying for every woman's contraception. women need to better understand the risks they take in not using condoms or the pill in preventing pregnancy, and men need to actually start thinking with the head on their shoulders as opposed to the one between their legs. maybe if women adopted the motto "no glove, no love" then men would understand

    consider that in many cases it's rape or incest, or an underage child.

    actually you are incorrect, but of course you would have to define what you mean by "many cases". please check the facts on why women (and girls) choose abortion. the overwhelming majority are due to lifestyle choices, while something like 2-3% is due to rape or incest.

    wait, so are you telling me our Constitution says that our tax money should be used to send people to war and giving tax cuts to the already rich? well I do see "common Defense and general Welfare" in which i would believe health and contraception would fit in as general welfare. hey, it also says to promote the Progress of Science and useful Arts. two things I've at times found more conservative minded people to hate, science and art because it doesn't fit the views they want to push on everyone.
