The National Art Gallery in Ottawa talking to the Ottawa Citizen about its rule prohibiting the carrying of small children on one’s shoulders:
“Unfortunately, we just can’t allow that kind of liberty”…
Uh, yeah… My point exactly. I have argued many times that talking about “abortion rights” wasn’t the end of the discussion, we also had to understand the basis for that right. We seem to accept the limitation of rights just about everywhere so long as they serve some notion of “greater good.” Like the protection of delicate artifacts. But suggest that abortion might weaken society and erode women’s rights and you’re told to get your nose out of women’s uteri.
Head shake. Eye roll.

It’s called the greater good of societal meltdown all in the name of progress. When you really give it some serious thought these folks really are all shook up aren’t they?
