News Host Openly Says Abortion ‘Saved My Life’ But What About the Baby’s Life?
It’s always so touching when a TV news personality opens up on the air about how the decision to end the life of his unborn child “saved” him. No really -- that actually happened.
Last Friday, MSNBC host Toure celebrated the 40th anniversary of Roe vs. Wade by sharing the story of when he and an old girlfriend decided 15 years ago to abort their baby, because it was, like, totally inconvenient.
During The Cycle, Toure told the audience, “In some ways that choice saved my life.” You see, it turns out that the girlfriend didn’t end up being the one, and giving birth to a live, healthy child would’ve just made “a mess of three lives.”
But wait! There’s more. Toure then went on to thank God and country for the right to abortion:
I thank God and country that when I fell into a bad situation, abortion was there to save me and keep me on a path toward building a strong family I have now. And I pray that safety net stays in place.
It’s unclear as to how one just “falls” into pregnancy (Did his penis trip and fall into her lady parts?), but we can gloss over that for the time being to talk about the ridiculousness of this particular situation.
Here we have a guy in a committed relationship with a woman he calls his girlfriend, and he knocks her up. Now, instead of manning up and taking responsibility for the child that he helped create, he applauds mom’s decision to end the pregnancy, and then 15 years later claims that the death of that baby ‘saved’ him?
I bet that baby would have liked to be saved too, had he or she been consulted on the matter of their imminent death. Maybe that baby would be alive today, having been adopted by parents that waited years to meet their child. Or maybe Toure and his girlfriend raised him. The only thing that matters here is that you’ll be hard-pressed to come across a person that believes their parents should have aborted them for convenience’s sake.
Like it or not, that’s a baby in there. A real, live baby with its own genetic code and DNA and everything. A child created by God. To turn around and thank God for the legal right to snuff out that life because pregnancy is icky is ludicrous.
Abortion may ‘save’ someone from parenthood, but it does so at the cost of another person’s life.
Is it really worth it?
It is up to the individual to decide if it is worth it.
No one else.
I've said this before, I have no problem saying it again. I had an abortion at 17 and it did indeed save my life. I have no regrets. I don't care what any one else thinks. Assume as you wish.
I do not like abortion, even thought I had one. I do not always agree with the reasons why some people make that choice.
But it sure as hell is not my place to make that choice for them. Thank God no one else was able to make that choice for me.
I think it's a crappy thing to say and I would not want my kids to think I would have aborted them had I felt it was more convenient, but I'm not going to be up in arms over it. It does make me think he is a shitty person. I don't like abortion it makes me sad to think of the 55 million American kids killed over the last 40 years. I'm certainly pro-life, but I understand the the USSC decision.
"Abortion may ‘save’ someone from parenthood, but it does so at the cost of another person’s life. "
No it does not. 90% of abortions take place in the 1st trimester. Two thirds of that occur within the 1st 6 weeks. An embryo IS NOT A PERSON!
Quoting toomanypoodles:Selfish. Makes me sick.
Yup the new propaganda isthat liberals want to make it legal to kill newborns until right before the bris and or christening. I have to sigh sometimes
How nice Toure was "saved" by his child's "choice".....
and what "generation" are you?
Would you go topless if you could?
