I disagree. Too many people take one side or the other, take for granted that their side is 100% correct, and refuse to believe anyone could possibly be center.
If one side says that I should be imprisoned or dead for existing, and the other says I should live not in prison or not dead, I choose life
That is an unbelieveably black and white way to look at things, and doesn't represent the real world at all.
The right wing equivalent would be; "One side wants me to have freedom to choose for myself, while the other wants to abort me before I'm even born."
And the results show that the abortion was the better option
