Question for Anti-Choiceists*

Why are you still here?

In America, I mean?

According to you, abortion is the killing of infants, right? That's why you're all so delighted about the murder of Dr. George Tiller, right? Because he was a monster who deserved to die for killing all those thousands of babies? That's why you've so gleefully dubbed him "Tiller the Killer" and "Baby Killer Tiller"? That's why you're doing the happy-feet dance over the cold-blooded shooting of an unarmed man (husband, father of four and grandfather of 10, btw) at his church? Because he was an evil mass murderer who had personally committed Baby Holocaust?

So basically, as far as you're concerned, America is a country (the country that many of you insistently, stridently, refer to as "the greatest country in the world") where it's legal to kill babies.

So why are you living in such a place? Why is that not a deal-breaker for you?

I mean, if I genuinely believed my country had legalized infanticide...Hell, let's even take it down a few notches...If my country had legalized the murder of kittens, I'd be on the next plane out.

Seriously, not being hyperbolic, if it suddenly became officially legal to buy a kitten, take it home and decapitate it, I'd start pricing apartments in less barbaric countries.

But YOU think it's legal to kill babies here, and you're still hanging around?

Why?

Keep in mind...This isn't me saying "Love it or leave it" (though lord knows I've heard it enough), I'm genuinely asking, if you really feel that way, that America green-lights baby-murders, how CAN you love it, and why haven't you left it?

I mean, near as I can figure, it's either a) You don't REALLY think abortion is the murder of babies (in which case you can spare us the righteous indignation about it); or b) You do think that, but you're willing to put up with it because...I dunno, you like the schools for your kids or you have a really kick-ass view or something (in which case, you're not exactly on the moral high ground, so you too can spare us your preachy bullshit).

Which is it?

Seriously. Why haven't you left? There are plenty of other countries to choose from where what you believe to be infanticide is illegal (which isn't to say that it doesn't go on just as much there...just not legally) Why haven't you washed your hands of this baby-murdering country of ours? If legalized baby-killing isn't enough to turn you off of this place, what would be?

Why are you still fucking here?

*That's right, that's what I'm calling you. Not "pro-lifers", because who, other than serial killers, isn't pro-life? Not even "anti-abortionists", because even pro-choicers are not actually FOR abortions, we're just in favor of the option to HAVE them. You, on the other hand, are ANTI-choice, so that's the label you get. Deal with it.
