| Message | "First of all, in a free market such as in Rutania (or at least we want it to be), the government's bussiness is not subisidizing any contraceptives. Government can only prepare some information campaign inside or/and outside the educational system. Everyone should be informed, and then decide if he wants to purchase any contraceptives or not. Second, we are not an underdeveloped country, we do not have such a growth of number of children, there is no reason why contraceptives should be encouraged. The only thing we demand is responsible behaviour, and that is done with education - we already have sexual education in schools. Also, an abortion is not a _choice_ to determine. It is a murder of unborn human child who cannot defend himself. RDF will not support this law." |

| Message | " We still do not get it how does the 'informed right to choice' relates to abortion? We want an explanation from New Liberal Party. It is unimaginable how the party which claims to be liberal crashes liberties and fundamental rights of persons who cannot possibly defend themselves - unborn children. Or they are not human to you?" |

| Message | I will vote yes, but perhaps eventually we can make it so that abortion is allowed whenever the mother wants. |
