True Romance, it was written by Quentin Tarantino but he sold it so he could make Reservoir Dogs, it's one of my favourites of his films actually (even though he didn't direct) Highly recommend if you have watched it

Love Reservoir dogs as well.

It's one of my least favourites of his movies, I think True Romance was a lot better, probably a lot more money spent on making that though, it had a brilliant cast too

That’s my take on the situation as well

Definitively pro-choice, then, are you? (Which is fair-game.)

I don't have a cast-iron stance on that - I lean towards being against abortion, simply because I see it as killing babies. But I know it isn't always that simple, et cetera et cetera.

I don’t agree with you on many things, Oliver, but I’m with you on abortion. Of course it’s always the woman’s choice (her body) and that’s absolutely valid but I do see it as ultimate lost potential and I just think it’s quite unfortunate when things are stacked in alignment of aborting a potential life. I’m ultimately pro-choice in technicality because it’s not my choice to make and isn’t ever going to be directly my business but it’s one of those things.

That and the fact that babies are just so frigging adorable I’d hate to be fatally-averse to bringing one into existence once it’s in the works unless it was the product of rape or something like that. But like I said it’s not something that would ever be my choice so it is what it is.

See, where my brain goes to on that point is, what about the child's body and choice?

That's kind of what holds me back from fully committing to a position.

An embryo's brain doesn't start to develop until around week 5-7. "Higher brain" structures don't appear till between weeks 12-16, so I'd be OK with abortion until around week 12ish.

So let's just kill people who lose higher brain function? Unless they're projected to regain it in a few weeks?

I didn't say that at all.

I said an embryo doesn't develop higher brain function until then which is the start of their consciousness I guess so imo before that they're just a bunch of cells. I said nothing about people who are already born. Why are you saying I did?
