And readers...while you’re at it, please note that Mr. Huck has<br />

been ignoring questions I asked of him. For example, when he earlier<br />

stated that granting a fetus full rights from <strong>the</strong> moment of conception<br />

was <strong>the</strong> safest alternative I asked<br />

"Safest for whom?"<br />

no reply<br />

As when I also asked him if he has <strong>the</strong> right to be inside my body<br />

against my will<br />

Oh...he must be saving bandwidth :-)<br />

Ah...and you can’t be a bigot because your best friend is a (whatever).<br />

Sorry...but your stated stance concerning abortion speaks for you,<br />

Robert. If your views discriminate specifically against a gender (women),<br />

that’s sexist...no matter what your friends think.<br />

>my friends are open-minded. Mr. Keegan obviously is not. He seems to<br />

I do not see Mr. Keegan discriminating against women here.<br />

see you doing such...who is "open-minded"?<br />

Sexism<br />

As you’ll someday (hopefully) find out.<br />
