Yes I am against discrimination. 
When the presence of a human life is not personhood, we have
discrimination. 

You claimed my point wasn't working: now could you show me how it's not

Ah-hah. So the majority of Americans believe that we should NOT stop
people from discriminating against others and impinging on their rights
