    Banning abortion doesn't make sense to me.

    You kind of igonred a large part of my argument. Mainly about how legislating morality doesn't work. Making abortions illegal will not suddenly make all americans see things from your point of view and stop getting abortions. If you believe abortions are wrong then your goal should be lower...

    Banning abortion doesn't make sense to me.

    That's not true at all. One can be morally against abortion and still not want it illegal in the same way one can be morally against drug use but still want drugs legal. Which would be an intelligent position to take since banning abortions wouldn't improve the situation it would just create...

    Banning abortion doesn't make sense to me.

    I had no idea he had a book on abortion. I'll look it up, thanks! That's fine and dandy but banning abortions wouldn't protect life. Women who are desperate(as the majority of women who get abortions are) will get the abortion regardless if it's legal or not. Only thing that changes is whether...

    Banning abortion doesn't make sense to me.

    If the unborn cant realize it's alive nor feel pain then who has been harmed? Forcing a women to bear(and raise) a child she doesn't want to have obviously will create a lot of harm. Not only for the mother but for the child who most likely grow up in a bad environment. Uh no I didn't come here...

    Banning abortion doesn't make sense to me.

    For those who think Ron Paul wants it to be completely left up to states please go check out the Sanctity of Life Act which RP has reintroduced to congress numerous times. It defines life as beginning at conception. How do you know the unborn is harmed? If it's brain isn't developed enough...

    Banning abortion doesn't make sense to me.

    I agree with RP on a lot of things but his stance on abortion bothers me. Most people on here seem to agree with him so hopefully I'll get some good thought-provoking responses. Even if one believes that human life begins at conception and is personally against abortion I don't see how the...

    Health Care: Does Ron Paul think we should eliminate the FDA?

    The FDA approves countless dangerous pharmaceutical meds but still rejects marijuana. When something being FDA approved isn't a very good guarantee of safety I fail to see the beneficial purpose the FDA has for Americans.

    Are there any issues you disagree with Paul on?

    His stance on abortion differs greatly from mine. That's the main thing I don't agree with him on.

    My Neighbors Just Ate their Dog (Seriously). What is the libertarian stance on this?

    Does anyone else find it weird to hear a living thing referred to as property? I don't think there's anything wrong with taking an animal under your care to raise as a pet or for food so as long as the animal is not treated cruelly. Defenseless animals should not be abused by people, they should...

    Synthetic Marijuana

    It's hilariously sad that people still think prohibition works.
