Not really a fair comment snoopcester Send a noteboard - 28/01/2010 02:44:21 PM
In fact, there have been a number of pro-life organisations in the UK who have got in trouble for setting up clinics that they have claimed are there to offer neutral advice but actually provided false information about abortion.

While on the flip side, I'm pro-choice as are most people I know and all of us would heavily favour people being given full information so they make an informed choice. After all, Pro-Choice crowd is still made up of people who aren't pro-abortion, just for the right of the individual to choose.

(Not that there might not be some who are misleading in the information they supply, I've just not seen it on the pro-choice side but people can get far too wrapped up in their cause)

EDIT: I changed the title because what I wrote was rubbish there.
