I think most "pro choice" people don't necessarily support or encourage abortion, they are just not comfortable with the idea of the government controlling a woman's choices with her body.

I think that's a pretty accurate statement.

You could say the same for Pro Life.

They don't like interfering with personal freedoms either, except when it involves killing another human.

I am pro choice totally but I think the people who use abortion are irresponsible idiots in most cases and its probably better for society that they kill their spawn

I think it is a woman's choice right up until the time the baby can live without the mother. After that it is murder.

So for most of the time I'm pro-choice. The problem is that most people define "choice" as letting other people pay for it.

You will see many example of this kind of thinking. If you cannot force other people to pay for it they say it is banned.

I can see their point. It is hard to get people mobbed up with, "they refuse to pay for my abortion." More effective is, "they refused to let me get an abortion.", even if it is a lie.

"They refuses to let us study stem-cells" sounded a whole like better than, "they refused to put millions of your money into stem-cells studies".

I am pro abortion. It annoys me when pro lifers insist on calling people pro abortion when they are actually just pro choice.

Don't lump those wishy washy people in with me.

Again Paul, "pro-choice" sounds much better than "pro-abortion" even if they are pro-abortion to the point where they get bitter if someone takes the other "choice". Not much money in it for them if they don't pick abortion.
