Pregnant women are not a minority, and most educated people don't consider a fetus to be a person. Did I say most? I meant all.

People on life support should be put into the hands of their next of kin, when have I ever argued that? That's why we have next of kin. I'm completely in favor of allowing the next of kin to make any decisions for a person on life support, no matter how bad of a situation they're in they should be kept alive if that's what the guardian wants.

When I say defenseless minorities, I'm talking about groups of PEOPLE; gays, illegals... historically blacks, Irish, Italians, Chinese, Natives, etc. Anyone the fear mongers can attack safely to keep us all fighting each other.

Yours was not a very good point IMO, but at least it was a point and you thought of it yourself. I can't believe I'm saying this but it's almost refreshing to have you back after months of having that kid named "funforone" repeating shit he hears on TV all day.
