>On the TV news this evening (on the puff-piece coverage about the

He-he.  I'd like to point out to Mr. Kaldis, and to all others who were
not at the rally, that police estimates of this march were 600,000 to
800,000.  Police estimates of both pro-life and pro-choice rallies on
the mall have traditionally been understated; therefore it is likely
that the true number was closer to one million.

Hardly the stuff of "puff-pieces."  In any case, it sure made the pro-"life"
rally look comparatively puny.  True, pro-choice rallies in D.C. have
traditionally outnumbered pro-life rallies here, but by a factor of *ten?*
That's ground-breaking.

And it is my fervent hope that every woman with whom you ever have a
relationship reads or hears these words from you, and decides that the
only reasonable course is to simply refuse to have sex with you.  It's
her only real protection.  Then, after months or years of frustration,
she can simply get involved with someone who *really* cares about her.

Pot: f(kettle)="Black"   Maturity... a wonderful concept.  You should
try it.  You can start by not referring to me as a pro-abort.  You
can continue by droppin the assumption that pro-choicers are deliberately
evil.

If she can't be trusted with a choice, why do you think she can be
trusted with the welfare of a child?

[invoking the standard cliche']  Well gee, Gordon... do you agree with this?
Btw, I have to add that I am this close   -->| |<--  to becoming pro-abortion
myself...  my position has indeed been solidified by reading Usenet.

As for you, Kaldis, I can only say that one man's (and I emphasize MAN'S)
convenience is often a woman's (WOMAN'S) life, no matter what you
might otherwise state.
