Logically you're stating that if you're "pro-choice" on slavery you are maintaing that it should be legal and you can then chose to opt out of the process. When applied to the "pro-choice" for reproductive rights the argument would seem to be that it should be legal and then you can opt out.
Other than the overt racism in this "pro-choice" poster, it would seem that the logical connections are lost on the poster. But then this is an anti-choice site, so I guess I should use the freedom of speech that you use for protection to just tell you to pray on the meaning of Matthew 7.1.

Anonymous, let's start with your last comment first.
"Stop judging, that you may not be judged." -Mt 7:1.
Would it be fair to say, Anonymous, that this is the only Bible verse you know by heart? Whenever this verse is slung at me, I find it usually comes from an agnostic/apathetic Christian who thinks Jesus was a nice guy but who hasn't seen the inside of a church (or Bible for that matter) in years.

Say, whatever happened to the maxim, "Stop judging?"
Oh well.
By the way, Anonymous, I have never once judged the heart of a woman who had an abortion. I judge *the decision* to abort to be an immoral one as it destroys an innocent human being (thereby violating the 5th commandment). But I harbor no sentiments of hatred, judgment or scorn toward the mother. I'm of the persuasion that every abortion involves at least two victims: the dead baby and her wounded mother.

What the picture makes obvious is the absurdity of "choice" when the decision being made involves an extreme injustice imposed on an innocent human being.

vice versa anti-choice involves an extreme injustice imposed on an innocent human being by taking away their right to choose for themselves and taking away their basic human rights.

The comparison is so similar. If you could go back in time to 1850 and ask any Southern Planter he would tell you an African American is obviously not human. In order to commit an atrocity you must first dehumanize.
Yes, I made a facebook flair button that is very similar to the wording here.

Where can I get one? (Picture, of course)
