Edward Janowski: Men imposing on pregnant women makes them breeding stock

Q: Do you support or oppose the statement, "Abortion is a woman's unrestricted right"?

A: While I am not a fan of abortion, nor do I believe it should be used as a standard practice for birth control. I don't believe a woman's God-given rights of Life, Liberty and Pursuit of Happiness ends if she should become pregnant. As a man, I do not have any right to deny a woman what choices she should make. I can offer my opinion or make suggestions to her only. To impose my will upon a pregnant woman would be to reduce her to nothing more than breeding stock, and that is not acceptable. No matter what I may think or feel.ÿÿ
