Why I Hate This Election, From Someone Who Is Pro-Life

Is there even a right choice?

Why I Hate This Election, From Someone Who Is Pro-Life
babbyy.com

Quite honestly, there are a lot of reasons to hate this election. An issue that has always been important to me is abortion.

Growing up Christian, I was taught that abortion was wrong. I went to numerous conventions where I was informed what happens and how it happens. It can be brutal, and it was something that I definitely think needed to stop. Of course, there are certain medical issues where I can understand that it may be necessary. When I was 16, I signed a pact to always vote pro-life first. This article is not meant to argue on if abortion is right or wrong. All I am saying is that this election really sucks for someone who is pro-life.

Donald Trump doesn't agree with abortion. Hillary Clinton does. However, voting for Donald Trump just because he is pro-life means that I will be voting for someone who is OK with hurting other people. He wants to try to get rid of all of the Muslims in the United States and all of the immigrants. It is not OK for him to degrade someone for their religion or for their ethnicity. He also wants a war on ISIS, which means that so, so many people will die. So really, the question is, do I vote for someone who is OK killing unborn babies or do I vote for someone who is okay with hurting people who are already here and someone who is okay with getting the US into another war?

Honestly, I'm not sure. Either way, I'm voting for someone who goes against what I believe in. That is scary for me.

I've been super busy lately with school work, studying, etc. Besides the fact that I do nothing but AP chemistry and AP economics, I constantly think of stupid questions that are almost impossible to answer. So, maybe you could answer them for me, and if not then we can both wonder what the answers to these 15 questions could be.

To My Loving Boyfriend,

  • Thank you for all that you do for me
  • Thank you for working through disagreements with me
  • Thank you for always supporting me
  • I appreciate you more than words can express
  • You have helped me grow and become a better person
  • I can't wait to see where life takes us next
  • I promise to cherish every moment with you
  • Thank you for being my best friend and confidante
  • I love you and everything you do

To start off, here's something I don't say nearly enough: thank you. Thank you, thank you, thank you from the bottom of my heart. You do so much for me that I can't even put into words how much I appreciate everything you do - and have done - for me over the course of our relationship so far. While every couple has their fair share of tiffs and disagreements, thank you for getting through all of them with me and making us a better couple at the other end. With any argument, we don't just throw in the towel and say we're done, but we work towards a solution that puts us in a greater place each day. Thank you for always working with me and never giving up on us.

Hauppauge is home to people of all kinds. We always have new families joining the community but honestly, the majority of the town is filled with people who never leave (high school alumni) and elders who have raised their kids here. Around the town, there are some just some landmarks and places that only the people of Hauppauge will ever understand the importance or even the annoyance of.
