Talk:Forced-pregnancy

Two minor grammatical points: 1) If it's the law of the land, then technically, it's not a crime. 2) If a woman wants an abortion, and can't have one because abortion is illegal, then technically she IS being forced to carry it to term. I mean, obviously it's an argument for the pro-choice crowd, but on the fact of it alone, it's true. --Jareddr 10:33, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

It is a crime, it is evil elevated to the high status of law. It is a crime against mankind, a crime against God, a crime against a child, not a choice. Is not pro-choice a true term as well? The mother gets to decide, a choice, two paths, freedom... "It's my choice, keep the baby or kill the baby." -- jp 10:44, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

You may believe it's against God's law, which then you can say it's a religious crime, I guess. But it's not a crime in terms of the laws of this land. --Jareddr 10:48, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

Quit being technical, we are not in court. -- jp 10:52, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

Yeah, but we are on an encyclopedia. Encyclopedias usually prefer us to be "technical" with definitions. --Jareddr 10:53, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

Yeah, "usually". This encyclopedia does not use liberal gloss.-- jp 10:55, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

In light of our discussion, I clarified it from "crime" to "crime against humanity", reflecting your choice of phrasing above, "crime against mankind". Thanks for the suggestion! --Jareddr 11:04, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

Acceptable-- jp 11:09, 5 September 2008 (EDT)

Removed "Smear" Section

The section does not contribute to the article, being neither relevant currently nor a serious smear; Governor Palin is, in fact, anti-abortion.
