Illinois Secretary of State appointed ‘honorary co-chair’ of pro-abortion ‘Men4Choice’ group
This week, it was announced that Illinois Secretary of State Alexi Giannoulias will join Men4Choice — an organization fighting to keep the killing of preborn children legal — as its National Honorary Co-Chair.
“Access to reproductive healthcare — including abortion — is a fundamental human right. Men have a responsibility to be part of this fight as allies, partners, and stakeholders, and Men4Choice is leading the way on that effort,” Giannoulias said at the announcement. “I’m committed to leveraging my platform to bring more men off the sidelines and build a robust network of men nationwide to support this work.”
Men4Choice is an organization that claims “men need abortion” in order to protect their freedom. In other words, the organization believes that men should fight for abortion, since it allows them to skirt their responsibilities both to women and the children they’ve created. By legally killing that preborn child by abortion, men who wish to are able to continue living a promiscuous and carefree lifestyle. The message is succinctly put in Live Action’s video, “Pro-Choice Men.” While the video is satire, as the existence of Men4Choice proves, it’s not at all far from the truth.
Being from Illinois, Giannoulias hails from one of the most pro-abortion states in the country. In appointing Giannoulias, Men4Choice cited his “100 percent pro-choice record,” noting his role in creating the “first in nation legislation” that protects the “privacy and safety” of abortion-seeking pregnant women by restricting automatic license plate readers from tracking them — bogus legislation that was completely unnecessary, as there is no state threatening to track pregnant women.
The message that men need to come “off the sidelines” and fight in favor of abortion is ironic, since pro-abortion advocates have been saying for years that men have no say in what has been labeled a “woman’s choice.” Apparently, as long as men are willing to fight for the killing of preborn children, they’re allowed and even encouraged to speak.
Meanwhile, studies have shown that many women would have chosen life instead of abortion, if only they had received support from the father of their children. Men don’t need to push for more abortion — they need to step up and care for women and children, especially the most vulnerable children among us — those in the womb.
