Apologies to Rick Fielding, I'm not sure why your name came up, I just tried to answer the question as posed.

I oppose abortion to the extent I'd be glad if it were rarer. I find it easy to love people who don't exist, a little harder with those who do. Easy to be cruel, and suppose it's motivated by deep love of boundless innocence. In my experience children grow toward, not away from a real moral innocence. At least until the teens.

   Others pull the half-drowned man onto shore, then comes somebody saying Let me through, I'm a Compassionate Conservative!
