2. IIRC, they first started using it during the Schiavo fiasco,
while on fake "hunger strikes" themselves, out of solidarity.

4. So what does it have to do with abortion?
Schiavo was a right to die/right to live controversy. Can the word be gotten to them that "live" and "life" are two words with a subtle but distinct difference in meaning?

3. it means they're crying about being "silenced"
because they can't physically attack pregnant women outside clinics and have to scream their lies and hold their faked pictures at a discreet distance.

5. I think it means fetuses can't speak for themselves, and are being silenced.
:shrug:

10. It means that we're silenced because we can't control other people's bodies.
It means we're oppressed because that gul-dang birth control pill is still legal.

We're victimized because individual women, not big-hair televangelists, are the ones who make decisions about their own reproductive systems, pregnancies, and health.
