| Message | What of the freedom of the unborn? You could possibly make a case for Article 2, but the other two Articles are not about expanding freedom as the PLP claims. They are about denying the right to life to thousands, if not millions, of unborn Hulstrians. |

| Message | At least they would have a chance to live! Without life, they would not even be able to be miserable. But yet, without life they would never know the joys of life and fellowship. As Doctor Suess said "A person's a person, no matter how small." |

| Message | I do not think you have enough contact with the average people, life is not always a pleasure, and giving it a bad start always turns out awful. |
