Yeah. A lot of 'pro-choicers' I know either don't know how to react to the news of the actual background of the modern abortion rights movement or they react very, very badly to it. Often I get the old "Well it's not like that anymore" excuse. They also simply tell me I'm lying when I tell them of their 'landmark' court cases, how they were based on lies.

Yeah. Everybody loves a seige. Us vs. Them is the order of the day. Everyone talks a mean game about understanding, tolerance and all that, but at the end of the day most folks identify themselves more by those they hate than those they don't or by their own characteristics.

It's a sad, sad state.
