I would have voted for the abortion, but I feel it is wrong to decide this in an online poll.

I like how people say this. The simpler thing is just to have as much sex as you want, and then get an abortion. Thumbs up!

No thanks. I don't want any chance of having kids, but I do want to have sex, so if I end up pregnant then I will do the mature and responsible thing and get an abortion.

But you keep right on with that whole "all women should be celibate unless they actively want to get pregnant right now" thing. I'm sure it will catch on.

Of course not. But, as we can all learn from the many right-wing Christian organizations out there, it's possible to get filthy stinking rich just by going around talking about how women oughta keep their knees together.

It's completely the couple's own decision, if the couple wants to have a child , they can do as they please , and it's none of anyone else's business. However, if they conceive a fetus, and no longer wish to have a child, or find a defect in said featus, there is absolutely no shame , and neither is there anything problematic about aborting said fetus. I say it's the couple's choice , and, if I where in their position , if I where the potential mother, I would not have an abortion , unless un - foreseen problems occurred or would materialize less an less an abortion where to take place , and, if I where the husband, I would respect my wife's decisions, as it's her body and it's her choice.

I am refusing to vote, because it just too damn weird. If these people need to let the fate of their unborn child be decided with an internet vote, then they shouldn't be parents at all.

Same thing I thought originally:

The couple in question were never considering abortion. If the poll came out in favor of birth, they'd post about how happy they are that everyone values Life so very much, and what a blessing and a joy their new baby is, and how horrible it would have been to kill this beautiful little angel. If the poll came out in favor of abortion, they'd suddenly have a change of heart and admit that they simply couldn't murder their precious precious baby, because unlike all the selfish and ignorant sluts who have abortions, THEY have seen ultrasounds and know the real value of Life. Etc.

Don't worry, it's just a hoax.

If they can somehow discredit 2/3 of the votes I will be amazed that they have the gall to keep up the facade of truth,

Its all part of their plan though. They just want to have keep the baby win so they can claim that more people are pro-life. Besides even if they can remove some of the votes most are done through proxies anyway.
