Let's Be Frank
And cut the crap, shall we?
I'm a Pro-Choice Feminist on the Left Left Left and I support Mark Steyn and his Rightwing Brethren in the War on Freedom of Speech opposite the Canadian Human Rights Commission. So do lots of people on the Left - including Alan Borovoy of Canadian civil liberties fame and the original CHRC go to guy.
But make no mistake, Mark Steyn and his kind are NOT freedom fighters. Far from it. You simply cannot believe in human rights and even the most basic of freedoms for all people if you don't support a female person's inalienable right over her own body.
The very people whose Freedom of Speech I support, believe that it is the right of the State to deny a woman a legal abortion - that the State right to control her reproduction supercedes her right to control it.
You are either Pro-Choice, or you aren't. And Mr. Steyn is not.
So who really believes in Freedom and who just believes in his own Freedom? That's Right. Case closed.
