1. I've been saying for a while . . .
. . . but so far to no effect: We need to reframe the terms "pro-life" and "right to life". Those terms are brilliant for those who are anti-woman's right to choose. The opposite of pro-life is anti-life, which certainly isn't what pro-choice is about. I think we need to start calling it "anti-choice" or "against a woman's right to choose", or even something more emotionally shocking.

2. Not too difficult...
Keep your nose out of other peoples business. Period. This isn't about being "pro-life" only the most insane among us are "pro-death". This is about one group of people claiming that their "religion" rules over all and that everyone in the world should bow to their god. Ha! Good luck with that.

3. I say "Whose life?"
Pro reproductive slavery types always wax rhapsodic about something the size of a cashew nut with gills like a fish and call it a fully formed, thinking, feeling human being.

I focus on the life of the whole person who is already living, the woman.

It's all dependent on whose life you value more.
