Study: Free birth control leads to fewer abortions

Freepers hate abortion. Or do they just hate women having nonreproductive sex? Because their response to a study saying freely available birth control lead to fewer abortions seems to imply they more want to punish people than to end abortion:

stanne delves deep into magical thinking, and blames abortion for Obama and homosexuality.
Don’t be under the illusion that “birth control” does not kill AfTER fertilization. Many types prevent implantation.

In any case, to the headline, mu question is: fewer abortions than what? Than before Roe V Wade? I doubt it.

When this country allows for ONE legal killing of an innocent, we’re in very bad shape.

Oh, and look! A man-child in the White House. Messing up everything. A 50-60% divorce rate (and not every other marriage is happy). Out of wedlock pre and post abortive pregnancy rate way higher than pre Roe v Wade. Complete garbage for cultural media. Immodesty and predatory behavior acceptable among girls and women. Homosexual militancy in areas as indefendable as middle schools.

A complete lack of critical thinking among a mojority of the population- Ugh! Including the voting population.
cableguymn has a plan:
I’ll bet if they cut off the welfare and suggested adoption there would be fewer teen Births and shorter adoption waiting lists.
a fool in paradise blames Obama for not promoting condoms enough, I guess:
No discussion of rising STD numbers.
The liberal War on Women continues.
Wait, you mean abstinence? So Obama hates women until he declares war on sex outside of marriage. Good luck with that!

Just mythoughts blames teaching evolution in schools:
IF somebody, anybody is paying for the product or the service it is NOT free. When public education teaches the young they are descendants of apes and just another member of the animal kingdom expect those members to act like animals. Time for the TOE’rs to take responsibility for what they have indoctrinated into the minds of our young.
lastchance knows it's all about eugenics:
I write this because of the study 75% of the women involved chose an IUD or the Patch. Amongst the general population on 5.5% of women using contraceptives choose these methods. The majority use oral contraceptives which have a larger failure rate because of human error. These errors range from forgetting to take a pill to not knowing they may not work if you are on antibiotics. So take away the possibility of human error and you have a lower failure rate. Never mind the health consequences of this or that IUDs can cause abortion.

So I call foul on the study. I also wonder why no one noticed the demographics of their study population. Those demographics show less of a concern for women’s health and more of a concern that there are too many poor Black babies being born. It would not surprise me if what is touted as a great choice today is demanded as compulsory in the future.

Remember scratch the heart of a population control advocate and you find a eugenicist.
speaking of eugenics...ridesthemiles:
How about free surgeries to tie their tubes off?
Also conservative sympathizer:
Fight them over there by paying for their contraception or fight them here when they're breaking into your house at 3 am.

I'm mostly for freedom of conscience, but asking people to pay for free contraception is like drafting citizens to fight during war.

And make no mistake: it is war, and right now the best are losing while the worst multiply like locusts.

  1. Most conservative positions on abortion only logically make any sense if you view them as just existing because conservatives hate the idea of women having sex. I read a blog about it a couple years ago.

    Though its changed recently, what with the "legitimate rape" people trying to ban it in the case of rape and incest. But then, they only do that because, if it were rape or incest, "the slut must have enjoyed it".

  2. More and more republicans seem to be donning their crazy pants in public. Rep Paul Broun starts off strong with "All that stuff I was taught about evolution, embryology, Big Bang theory, all that is lies straight from the pit of hell." and freepers take it from there.

    Uncle Slayton drops by to give the Congressman a harrumph, "The Congessman is right as no so called scientist has demonstrated that anything on the earth is more than 9000 years old."

  3. Where on Free Republic is the thread about Sarah Palin writing a new diet book? I am falling down laughing here.

    1. I see nothing yet, though Freepers dietery ideas can become pretty out there, as you might imagine.

      Definitely bears watching.

  4. Random note: They never taught me that humans are no different than animals. Sure we're in the same kingdom, and closely related to the great apes, but we're also the only creatures capable of science and philosophy and and art and all sorts of other interesting things.
