[are you willing to fund ALL pregnancy-related expenses for women? If not, then you can't really complain when they get abortions, now can you?]
What does that have to do with anything. They should be forced to take responsibility for their own actions and pay off those expenses themselves. No reason the taxpayer should pay for someone else's irresponsibilities. Hell, if she is too stupid to keep a job, pimp her out to raise money for the kid.

                So, you're against abortion, but you're OK with forced prostitution.  That makes you Asshole of the Week.  Congrats!  And, you can come back next week to defend your title. 
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                We all save money, and for you I guess the more prostitutes on the streets the better. Pity her life is trashed, but seriously, you're not her, so why in the world would you give a rats arse?
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                So she's irresponsible if she didn't stay on birth controll ALL the time, just in case she was raped, and now she has a child she doesn't want and may not be able to care for it, both physically and psychologically.  Therefore, she should pay for all expenses for the pregnancy?  Asshole.
 
        
            
                
                Having an abortion if you can't physically, emotionally, or financially care for a child is  taking responsibility. She's responsible enough to realize that the child would be better off not existing than coming into such a situation.
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                You're the guy who complains "my girlfriend got  herself pregnant" aren't you? Bet you'd tell her you're not going to marry anyone who isn't a virgin, then rounds up ten of your friends (assuming you have any) to swear they also slept with her to avoid paying child support.  Thank Goddess for DNA testing.

But it's all okay! Jebus will be by in a little bit to destroy the earth! It's a win-win situation! [/sarcasm]
  
        
            
        
            
                
                BTW, I forgot to say that the irresponsibility lies on the man too, so he has to be consequent and admit child support. Or well, let´s put it in another way, if it´s not applicable to rape or incest, well, in that case your system is not applicable AT ALL. And don´t forget that prostitution worsens that aspect of the problem, not the other way round.
 
        
            
        
            
                
                Completely ignoring the man's responsibility, eh, Brian?  What's the matter, child support payments mounting up?  
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                And if you're the father, should you be pimped out to raise money for the kid?
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                I'm not even sure an aluminum Cluebat can handle this case. Hell, the great sword Cluebringer might not be enough. I say we try out the experimental new ClueNuke. It'll solve his problem one way or another - either he'll get a clue, or we won't have to deal with him anymore.
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                I...but...what...so you'd rather punish the woman with men committing sin, BY YOUR VERY HOLY BOOK, and doom the child to a life of misery and neglect, and this is provided Mom survives both the Johns you're inflicting on her, and childbirth, as opposed to letting her have the choice to abort, and spare all involved the misery.
Well, Jesus is love, I suppose...
 
        
            
        
            
        
            
                
                So...you don't give a flying fuck for the welfare of the child...you just want that woman to suffer for an arbitrary wrong-doing.  How very Christian of you.
