    It would make for a fantastic experiment in Natural Selection and Self Determination. No birth control = milling hordes of inbred zombies, could be fun !

    Ok your opinion differs from hers-I understand that but why do you let people with opposing opinions make you so mad? I guess everyone gets to the point that they don't care what other people think. I just don't see the big deal. Maybe if she made a more coherent point it could have gotten a rise out of me; but it looked like a bunch of rambling vagueness to me.

    The problem is, no matter how dumb this person may be, there are plenty of dumber people who will read her words, or converse with her on a daily basis, and buy into her idiotic thinking. There is no bottom to the dumb hole.

    And birth control breeds something positive? If it bred anything at all, then it must have failed by definition.

    I'd simply answer this person with what has already been said. You can do whatever you want to with your body so long as you don't FORCE someone else to pay for it. I don't have to agree with what you do,or don't do, to your body, you have to answer for it, either to yourself or a higher power. NO government will ever succeed in legislating morality or a lack of it.

    Me: Are you referring to the "Respect For Rights of Conscience Act " because if so noone is saying to get rid of these things. They are saying it is not your employers responsibility to pay for your birth control. It is yours. How is it the employers problem that you might have a baby? Or an std? And even if the GOP wanted to ban all contraceptives it has to go through the states. I really don't think the citizens are going to vote for such bans. If they do that is that states choice. The power needs to be at a state level for the states to decide what happens in their own state. And that is exactly what Romney wants to do. Smaller government more power to the states. No president can just decide to ban condoms. Noone wants to ban condoms, they don't want the employer to be obligated to pay for contraceptives. Which they shouldn't be. If you don't want an std know who your going to be with. If you don't want a baby, use a condom, or pull out, or don't have sex until your ready to have a kid. Or buy a seperate contraceptive. If you have some knowledge of someone flat out saying "I want to ban all contraceptives in America" than I will understand. Otherwise this is ridiculous, and I mean that with the utmost respect. I just can't wrap my head around how anyone is making a decision to take away contraceptives, the way I see it they don't want employees to have to pay for it. If you have evidence that says the GOP want to ban all contraceptives please bring it forward as I'm very interested. PS there is no study proving that the crime rate increase from loss of birth control is anywhere near the increase of crime rate from "gun control" the difference would be remarkable. And to say Obama doesn't want to take the guns is ridiculous he said so I heard him with my own ears. What about the UN arms treaty he pushed so hard for?? If it wasn't for the states it would've happened and we will more than likely be in a civil war right now. 2 hours ago · Like · Edit

    Me: NOONE WANTS TO GET RID OF CONTRACEPTIVE. they just don't want it to be mandatory for private hospitals to provide it and employers to pay for it. if they want to they can. It is unconstitutional for them to try to force them that is not what America supposed to be about. 1 hour ago · Like · Edit

    Random lady .#2 : 1. it is a medical issue, and should therefore be provided 2. just wondering whether people who are opposed to these places providing contraception are ALSO opposed to the availability of Viagra? 3. if people are opposed to abortion, then they' should support the availability of contraception-and as much of it as possible 4. for people who wanna make this a financial issue- you want contraception made available, or do you wanna pay for all those unexpected children who are gonna need government assistance? and then back to 1. again because i feel so strongly about it- it's a medical issue, so it should be covered. 14 minutes ago · Edited · Like



    Me: It is not a medical issue, having a baby is not a diagnoses. Let me make an equation for you. Penis + vagina = baby. Do we all agree on that? Ok so that is your equation every time you have sex. Why should your employer pay for you to change the outcome of your equation?? Also NOONE IS OPPOSED TO THE CONTRACEPTIVES JUST OPPOSED TONITE BEING

    How interested are you in keeping this person as a friend? Use at your own peril.

    "Let's deal with the birth control issue first. The GOP is not trying to restrict birth control. It is only against forcing other people to pay for yours, your daughters, or anyone else's. You claim to want control over your body, exercise control by being responsible enough to pay for your own birth control. If you cannot, you are too immature to have sex. Exercise control over your own body by keeping your legs together. It's your right.

    As for abortion, I refuse to subject an innocent life to the death penalty to preserve your or anyone else's right to NOT exercise control over your own body. Please see the closed leg option above.

    Based upon your post, I am afraid that the skill of critical thinking has escaped you. You have refused to look at the facts of the birth-control issue and have accepted the lies of propaganda. Perhaps the best result for society as whole is for you to exercise the closed leg option and to impress upon your daughters the importance of the same, as people with your mindset, for the good of society, should not reproduce."

    Houghmade, you stated that perfectly,
    Being responsible for your own actions and paying your way is in no way a restriction of your freedom, if fact, I think it is a important part of it.
    If you want to enslave a society, make them dependent.

    BC Pills are on the "cheap" list at WalMart and other Pharmacies. They are also available on the cheap at Planned Parenthood.

    Most insurances that don't cover BC pills for birth control, DO cover them for medical reasons.

    Her "insurance paying for them" shows she is clueless who PAYS for her insurance..

    Me: One more time, NOONE WANTS TO GET RID OF CONTRACEPTIVES. They just don't want the government forcing employers to pay for it. Or forcing private hospitals to provide it. Let me ask you this, if Walmart didn't want to sell milk should we make them? After all a lot people want milk. And they don't desk like going to Target they want Walmart. Should we force Walmart to carry milk? Same thing should we make hospitals have contraceptives? Or make them perform or not perform abortions? That is their choice. It is their business.

    Maybe these ladies are remembering that the onetime front runner in the gop race for president, Rick Santorum, came out against contraception. And many backed the moron up on his insane views. There certainly ARE people out there who would ban contraceptives and they're pretty much all in one political party.

    I just have to reiterate how utterly CLUELESS she is.. it would be very rare for her to have an employer that does not contribute ANYTHING to her insurance. If they are, then yes, THEY are paying for part of her Rx's
