Pro-life and pro-choice are both terms that imply the opposite sounds much worse, that being anti-life or anti-choice.
Many would argue that the adoption lists are quite long, but some would be confused as to how that is when there are adoption centers full of children. The problem is, no one wants that have already been imprinted upon by another mother, etc. They don't want 'damaged goods', they want a brand new baby. Well, I say tough ****, if you want to adopt, take one of the kids that needs a family. I agree with Kosh that we don't need to keep giving these picky parents the choice of a new born baby when there are still so many homeless kids out there.
Also, black children make up the bulk of the adoption centers, and yet are less likely to be adopted, whether it be because of less demand, or race-matching practices in some areas. There are far less black parents willing to adopt, so many of these children get stuck in a horrid system leading to them never beind adopted and ending up put out on the streets never having known what it's like to have a good family. As you can see, this can easily become a self-feeding system.
So let the black women get abortions? Well that's racist.
We have to open it up to everyone if we open it up to anyone, now don't we
Another argument I hate: What if the aborted child was going to be the next Einstein, or cure cancer? Well that's a moot point, he's equally likely to be a jackass, a murdering rapist, or the next Hitler (how many posts till Godwin's?). So it doesn't really work to argue with hypotheticals like that.
