What bastards these people are! What tyrants! It never stops. Bit by bit, we are sliding toward civil conflict. And they have all the power. God help us.

We the people understand instinctively that society has a compelling interest in protecting life.

I have a brother-in-law who is an LA County firefighter. He is a professional hero. He saves lives for a living. However, he is also pro-abortion. Next time I see him I am going to ask him if he finds any conflict with those two completely different ways of thinking.

This was my big complaint about planned parenthood fighting this.

This isn’t a statement to political action, to get the laws changed to ban abortion. If one assumes that abortion is the law of the land, a woman still has to decide, and this plate says “choose life”.

And others are right, the alternate plate would be “choose death”. Because abortion is a choice, and the choice is either to allow the child to live, or to kill it.

So the judge is wrong to suggest that the “other side” of the issue is a Planned Parenthood plate. What would that plate say “woman’s body, woman’s choice? How would that be the “opposite” of “choose life”?

We could sue for that, to show how ridiculous these rulings are.

Like the save the chesapeake plates should be countered by a “pollute the bay” plate.

Time will tell maybe. Some people who consider themselves pro-choice have a change of heart once they have children.

Since he wants equal time, how about “Choose Abortion”?
Same wording, opposite message.

He’s 84 and been on senior status for almost 12 years. I say it is rank senility.

NC should defy the ruling on the grounds of ‘states rights’.
