Pro-choice.
I am not here to follow YOUR set of morals, period. What I do with my body is my choice, and mine alone. We can sit here and argue when we believe life begins, but whats the use of that? I'm not going to change your views over the internet. But we are not ending life, we are ending the POTENTIAL for life, big difference. An embreyo cannot exsist outside of the womb until about the 3rd trimester (which is illegal to abort, and prior to that, less then 1% of abortions were that late, usually to save the life or fertility of the mother)
Heres a challenge. If you are truely pro-life, then adopt a special needs child. (There are many! Have you ever volunteered at a home for special needs children that have been abandoned? its HEARTBREAKING!!) Telling me over the internet that abortion is murder, or standing outside of planned parenthood with signs does NOTHING for the children left in dumpsters that are already living, well beyond the potential for life that they were when they were zygotes.
Most people who are pro-choice would agree that we dont WANT people to have to go through it (its hard! its not an easy choice to make) And we would like to eliminate the NEED for it by educating everyone on how to protect themselves (condoms, birth control OR absitince)
Did you know that about 77% of anti-choice leaders are men? 100% cannot get pregnant.

I am pro-life because I don't think it's okay to rip a human being into little4 pieces because their presence is inconvenient. And because I've seen first hand the mental destruction Abortion very often does to the unintended victim,the Mother. Fact is I know two people who so regret their decision to this day that they both emotionally break down if they talk about it. That's years later by the way. Of course we also have a large part of the population with no compassion whatsoever,who think that it's like removing a wart,so for them I guess it's fine.

Pro-Life with the exception if the mother's life is at risk. If someone were to kill an unborn child outside of an abortion clinic, they would be charged with murder- like Scott Peterson who killed his wife a few years ago; he was charged with the murder of his wife and unborn child. If someone were to go into a hospital and kill a prem-mature baby in an incubator, people would consider that murder. Why then is it not murder if the fetus is inside the mother? Does location make a difference in determining whether or not it is morally justified to terminate a life?

Yes.
I say that because "Pro-choice" can be "pro-life."
If you're asking about Pro-choice vs. anti-abortion, then Pro-choice.

I am pro-life.
I also support the right of a woman or a couple to decide to abort an unwanted pregnancy if that is what they feel they must do, even though I deplore it.

The choice comes way before conception. I believe in the right to thrive once there is a life!!! There are extreme exceptions obviously but abortion should never be a form of birth control.

I am definitely pro choice. I don't want to see a slip into the bad old days of backstreet abortions and women needless dying as a result.
Also, as an aside, a couple of years ago a pro life advocate on a TV news program admitted a big part of the pro life agenda is to have more babies available fro adoption. I appreciated his honesty and being so forthcoming.

Pro-choice. Pro choice will never force an abortion while anti-choice will force carrying to full term. I believe women are intelligent beings able to make their own decisions.

Pro life, but I'm for capital punishment, killing terrorists, torturing unconvicted combatants, preemptive bombing of civilian targets, ignoring genocide, and supporting oppressive middle eastern monarchies. Don't forget that a large a % of those saved babies will grow up to be fighting Marines, fat diabetics or dope addicts.
