Pro-choice encompasses many more aspects of life

Ladies and Gentlemen, I would like to publicly announce that I am pro-choice. You see I choose to light up a cigarette any where I please. I choose to drink and drive whenever I please. I choose to not wear a helmet when I ride my motorcycle. I choose not to wear a seat belt when I drive my car. I choose to park on any side of the street that I want. I choose to drive as fast as I want.
I have heard people state time and again that they are pro-choice and that the government has no right telling them what to do with their bodies.

Well, folks, it happens every day. As I pointed out in my tongue-in-cheek examples.

You see the only thing that separates me from you pro-choice people is that I choose to protect our unborn children. I believe the government should have the right to protect the unborn child. The government should be as pro-choice as I am.

If they can tell me and you that you must wear seat belts and helmets and smoke out-of-doors, then why should they not be able tell us we cannot use our unborn babies as medical guinea pigs? If they can place all sorts of restrictions on us pertaining to our homes, where we can and cannot live, hunt and fish, and fly our planes, then why can't they have the right to say NO to Roe vs Wade? So I am pro-choice, I just choose to let our babies live
