Let's use another example for a second...
still pertaining to personal choice concerning the body, let's suppose there was some anti-tattoo/piercing coalition that protested outside ink shops everywhere because they felt it was a violation of the body to perform such an act. Let's suppose this went on for years and years and finally, the government was given the power to eliminate it altogether. The protesters win.
Is that going to stop people from modifying their bodies? From injecting ink into their skin? From embedding beads into their cocks, metal mohawks into their scalps, or piercing their clits?
Not a chance in hell.
Ya just can't legislate that kinda stuff. The body is all you got. It's all anyone really can say is 100% theirs and it's goin' with ya when ya die. And choices concerning it will always be made by the individual in spite of any law someone makes or how many protesters are outside the door crying.
And this is why I find these abortion debates so freakin' tedious.... all the bitching in the world is not going to change the fact that you can't stop people from doing what they're gonna do. And I can't believe the active protesters that spend their lives harping on the shit for no fucking reason. They'll never win.... even if they win.
