Subject: RE: BS: Abortion 8th amendment referendum, Eire
Sorry Robo - didn't understand a word of that - was the "click" yours or the callers ?
My experience of callers coincided with Billy Connolly's old joke - "if you want to confuse a policeman ask him a question"
After listening to the usual nonsense about "poor dead babies" I asked how she felt about contraception - don't think I have seen anybody sprint away as quickly since the last Olympics
These people seem to work from a tightly scripted approach - go off-script and you've lost them
I have seen horrific encounters with young women (not much more than girls)outside family planning clinics, who have been driven away from seeking advice in tears by strident mobs
This decision needs to be taken out of the hands of mystics and fanatical zealots
