So in America equal rights really means equal rights for every straight male. Gays can't get married and women can't get an abortion. Great job America! amirite?

Hey to be fair males can't get an abortion either.

I'm conflicted between saying that anti-gay laws are unfair, and saying abortions shouldn't be allowed

women can get abortions..

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Yeah, I don't know what this post is talking about. Of course there are restrictions on it (partially for safety from what I know), but Roe v. Wade said that women can get abortions. Know what you're talking about before you post.

right? i know third-trimester abortions are a different story but in every single state, abortion is legal. i had to read the post a couple of times to make sure i was reading it correctly, then realized the OP really was wrong

I as so sad that SamG beat me to the comment of the stupidity of this post

Ithink they meant it was frowned upon

Actually, a woman in America can get an abortion at any stage for virtually any reason. Obama even pushed through partial-birth abortions. And, gays can get married in many states, including the one I'm from. So, it is factually incorrect, not even getting into the philosophy.

The only problem with the post is "at any stage". In the third trimester "the state can choose to restrict or proscribe abortion as it sees fit". (Roe vs. Wade) But the post is still incorrect.

Many states? What. It's only like a handful out of 50 states that actually grant gay marriages. What are you talking about?

I agree with this post, but seriously, I'm tired of seeing this stuff on amirite. Most people here are teenagers, and the vast majority agrees. You're preaching to the choir. A better way to get the message out is by talking to older people (you know, those people who can actually vote).

I'm pretty sure abortions give the babies unequal rights. In fact, they give them none at all.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

well doesn't it like not get any rights at all since its a fetus. it only gets rights when its really a baby and took a breath or sumthing. saw it on a tv show like csi or sumthing hahas

Sure, it can't breathe on its own, but it can still feel pain and it is already a human being.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

that's beside the point, it's still not techniqually a human yet. would you count killing sperm as murder? well anyways my source is a tv show that seemed legit so w/e disagree if you want

by Anonymous 14 years ago

it is a human, sperm is never a human. A fetus is a baby, just less developed but still a person & should still have rights.

So men can get abortions...? Because you're talking about equality....and saying women makes it gender equality.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

um since when have guys not been allowed to get abortions??

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Actuaally gays can get married and women can get abortions its just shunned here. No ones stopping you, they're just giving you a lot of shit about it. Plus Your statement states those two things then says , " Great job america! , Amirite?" so yes you are because amercia did do great.

I think you mean every straight WHITE middle-class male.

you beat me to it. sort of

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Really? Because I would love to hear how straight asian middle-class males have different rights. Plus straight white middle-class males have a harder time getting into college, scholarships, ect.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Look on the bright side. America is getting better. It used to be only straight rich white guys that had equal rights

by Anonymous 14 years ago

You're an idiot...factually anyways, Women can get abortions in every state and faggots can get married in some states. They're both frowned upon though.

Xiofang WOW homophhobe much? And what if its not the womans fault that she is pregnant? What if she got raped and she cant afford a child? What if the condom broke? What if? What if what if? Your just being an ignorant douche.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

did you not read my words? life is never completely fair. sometimes someone innocent gets the short end of the stick. sometimes when the majority of people look down on a certain lifestyle like homosexuality, they will prevail over what they want. Raising a baby isnt the end of the world for that person. but it is the end of the world for the baby if he/she gets aborted. I never get mad at someone who gives me their opinion on something. i get mad at people who provoke subjects without giving any reasonings as to why they are talking.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

In a country where innocent children are slaughtered for no reason, yes, I am pretty sure we are lying when we say we're for equal rights.

GAY PEOPLE CAN GET MARRIED. A gay man can get married to a woman just like a straight man can. America isn't discriminating against gays, they just aren't making any exceptions.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Gay people can't marry people of the same sex is obviously what was meant dumbass. And yes they ARE completely discriminating against gays, what planet are you on?

I knew what they meant, but what they said wasn't right.

Oh and to the people who think abortions are ok. Why dont you go back in time and tell your mom to get an abortion if you werent a baby back then. hm? why wouldnt you do that? cause you wouldnt fucking exist now. think of all the people who would be alive right now if women werent so selfish and got abortions.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

hmm. the funny thing is... if you just would remove the sarcastic crap from this post, it makes sense. good job america. gay marriage is wrong, as is abortion!

or maybe she's just stating her opinion, which, by the way, i agree with.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Hes not stating an opinion, he's stating a fact. And that fact is actually incorrect.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

This whole post is an opinion, and so is my response! You believe that it should be legal, and I believe it's wrong...

by Anonymous 14 years ago

You said "gay marriage is wrong" instead of saying "i think gay marriage is wrong" which would've been an opinion.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

well this website is a place to post opinions, and seeing as i took a strong position, that would, of course, be an opinion. Also, if you'd like to comment on the ethicality of gay marriage, please do so instead of criticizing my wording.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Fine, can I just say that, I understand it's your opinion, but i do not agree with your opinion. I think your opinion is the reason America is so silly. Everyone always says "I want world peace" well, in order for that to happen, we need equal rights. So I want equal rights.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I have to agree with Otters on this one. America should be a place where people aren't afraid to voice their opinions. I think balanced, honest views can help regulate and stabilize society.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

thank you. and i certainly don't hate gays as people. I just don't support that particular sin.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Tell me, do you think they choose to be that way? You think people would choose to be ridiculed constantly by people like you? It's not a sin, and if it was then "God" wouldn't have made them that way.

by Anonymous 14 years ago

I don't ridicule gays. I have a friend who is gay, and i don't hate him or tease him. i disapprove of homosexuality, not homosexuals as people. as for god, I think he gives people feelings and they choose what to do with them. Suppose, for the sake of supposition, that it wasn't a choice. neither, apparently, is pedophilia. And by taking this strong viewpoint, i'm making myself target to lots of hate (similar to gays who are hated.) but i CHOOSE to. it's my choice.
