Yeah, let's kill all the toddlers when the nurseries are full eh.

:rolleyes::rolleyes:

Well here he is:rolleyes:

They are not the same thing:rolleyes:

What on TV? If so I haven't seen it, and I am against it then if it is... I am atheist but no need to shove it in peoples faces.

I think that is about the Bus ads.

So everyones ignored what Nurse has said is ACTUALLY going to happen! tut tut....Daily "hate" Mail have done their job again!

Heheh!

I agree completely.

I'm not anti-abortion, but I think we are in danger of pimping out abortion as an alternative to birth control.

Obviously I know the risks involved in abortion, as I'm a 35 yr old mother of 2. But, the fear is that very young girls will be misinformed and will not be mature enough to see the difference between a condom and an abortion in terms of the long-term effects.

I don't know the full content of the ad, so I'd rather wait to see if it is more of an 'advisory service' ad, before I condemn it. I paid attention to Nurse's post Netto.. ;)

But, I do know that we need to be giving our kids facts, and ensuring that they know the consequences of their actions if they choose to be liberal with sex. Obviously, like most parents, I'd rather my child abstain, but in reality, I can't be there 24/7 to ensure she does. So, if she's armed with accurate information and good advice, she stands a better chance of making a good decision over a bad one.

Yeh I think its the advice and information that is needed from an early age on all aspects of sex/relationships/contraception/abortion....I'm sure thats what the ad will entail not "get your abortions here...bogof" lol

I think it's bad enough that they advertise plastic surgery but abortion?!?!?!. It's basically advertising murder. Which is just sick. If people need to have abortions than fine but to advertise it as an easy-fix solution is wrong,people should be more careful and not ever consider abortion as an 'easy option' because it really isn't.

They will be caring adverts
no one is saying it is quick fix.

And it Ain't Murder.


it is LEGAL.

in your opinion and just cos its legal doesnt make it right

No it is under our Laws of the UK
and I follow Legal Laws,
nothing to do with opinion.

A foetus hasnt a fully developed brain therefore hasnt developed a consciousness of self. "I think therefore I am". Can't call it murder! and I'm sure its not going to be that sort of ad thats says "come and get your abortions" quick fix solution!...the daily mail have picked out the sensationalist tit bit and ran with it as per

Well it's not legal in Ireland anyway.

I've just read up on it anyway...the ads are parental advice ads...advising on all aspects of preganancy/contraception/options etc. Anti abortion clinics are up in arms becuase they THINK it will lead to abortion clinics advertising on TV which is highly unlikely! The daily mail make a story out of nothing yet again!

...also these are just proposals

"Anti-abortion groups today attacked a proposal to allow TV ads giving pregnancy advice, arguing that the relaxation will lead to abortion clinics running commercials.

The proposal features in wide-ranging plans to shake up broadcast advertising, including the option of allowing condom commercials before the 9pm TV watershed, which were put out to public consultation today by the Broadcast Committee of Advertising Practice.

A spokesman for Bcap said that due to the referral process in the UK, under which women are usually referred by their GP or a hospital doctor, it was "unlikely" that abortion clinics would be advertising directly to consumers and flooding TV screens with commercials."

Sorted end of argument. Netto got it in 1.

Lol you were just waiting for him lol.

Amen...no abortion clinics advertisin diddly!...Its more than likely because we dont give anough advice that the teenage pregnancy rates are so high anyway!!

Fom, You don't think the opinions of those that are pro choise (sp) should be aired but you say that there should be safe sex adverts. What about the people who think contaseption is wrong. You have now offended them.

Would you complain about an advert that said " if you are thinking of or having sexual relationships and have have any questions about sex, infections, safe sex, contraseption, pregnancy and your options, no mater what your age. Then come talk to the sexual health advisory service for free, confidential advice" ?

Because this is the sort of thing they are talking about. Not

"UP THE DUFF, THEN COME TO THE ABORTION WAREHOUSE, DARLY DALE, FENTON, MEASHAM AND NOW STOKE. OPEN SUNDAYS. credit terms on request."

Yes i was:tongue:

You can abort up to 24 weeks; a foetus is fully developed by that time. Some have been born around that time and have survived and lived a normal life.

^^Yeh maybe the limit needs lowering, but still, they are not a living independant being...and if theyre just coming out to a world of shite and misery...well I know which I'd choose

...Anyways off topic...theyre not going to advertise abortion clinics FACT, END OF!

Time Will Tell on that.

Someone in a coma and on a life support machine- they can't think, by definition they aren't a living independent being. Are they still a living person who deserves to have no rights or right to life?

I don't think we can go around and brand people as this and that just because they haven't had (or got if you use my example) the chance to live on their own and it leads to loooooads of grey areas.

(Not attacking you/your opinion btw if thats how it comes across just questioning/comparing stuff to see how others view that)
