Honestly, I feel like pro-lifers think pro-choice means pro-abortion. It feels like they think anyone who is pro-choice wants to abort all the babies or something.
If you're pro-choice you yourself can still be AGAINST abortion. It just means you're not forcing your beliefs on other people. Pro-choice just means women who want to abort have access to safe and regulated abortions.
With that said I'm pro-choice (in case you couldn't guess). I'm fairly happy to say that I support a person's choice to have an abortion whatever their reason. Rape, baby will have a horrible illness or even just because the contraception failed. However, I do think women who use abortions INSTEAD of using contraception in the first place are very irresponsible but in that case I think the health authorities should educate them rather than punish them.
