What I Want For My Granddaughters

I want a safer, saner world for them.

I want for them to never find themselves in a situation where they would have to make the heart-wrenching decision to abort or carry an unplanned/unwanted pregnancy. I really want for them to be spared such anguish in their lives.

I'd like to believe that they will practice safe sex when the time comes, or better yet--wait for marriage. Of course I know abstinence is not realistic at all, and being normal human beings, they are not likely to wait for marriage.

I want them to have options and choices as they grow up. I want sex education for them, including birth control options. I want them to have the right to choose if necessary.

I also want less ugly violence in their world. If that means we need stricter gun control, so be it.

I want domestic terrorists to be eradicated in my lifetime, for the good of my granddaughters, and for all of us. I believe with every fiber in my being, that the person who shot and killed Dr. Tiller this morning is just that: a domestic terrorist. Sure, he no doubt has underlying mental illness, no doubt about it. In my opinion, most of those so-called christian Anti-CHOICE wing-nuts ARE at least a little bit wacko!

Once again let me say I am NOT Pro-Abortion; and honestly have never met anyone who is! I am Pro-CHOICE, and I believe that the decision to abort is never an easy one for any woman to make. I am thankful I was never in a situation where I had to choose. Fortunately, my pregnancies were planned and wanted--the only thing UNplanned, was that the 2nd pregnancy resulted in twins. BIG suprise in the delivery room, LOL!

And, isn't it odd--most if not all the so-called christian wingnuts call themselves "pro-life"? Sad, they seem to only 'love' the unborn, not the already born.

Ok, rant over, for now. I need to get back to my work.

Love and PEACE!

If they can define us as Pro-Abortion, I think we should be able to define them.

We can now start to call them Anti-Choice. They sure aren't for life in any shape or form.

This was an act of terrorism, an assassination of the purest form. The group Operation Rescue should be classified as a terrorist organization. Randall Terry the head of this group is a hate monger and will probably be on with one of the Faux newsers tonight talking about it.

I have calld them Anti-Choice for years, LOL

They are definitely not "pro-life", by any stretch of the imagination!

And yes--Operation Rescue IS a terrorist organization.
