    What human rights gives a group of idiots the right to block major roadways and prevent the remainder of society from functioning because they have their panties up their asses.

    What religion are most Brazilians?

    @ 8 313toBioBio

    Western countries have strict rules about when abortions can be carried out.

    Quoting 8 months is just being disingenuous or lying: take your pick.

    I see you use the Miriam Webster definition of foetus, anti Brit RCC 'believer' then?
