Look, I’m pro-choice, yet I completely understand the opposition to abortion (the act). Everyone does. It’s safe to say that no woman has ever approached an abortion with a gleam in her eye.

This moral commonality — distinctly human — is what makes the debate between the pro-choice and anti-choice crowds so emotionally charged.

The question I pose to you is the following: If you are anti-choice, is the above discourse an example of the type of response that you want your Congresspersonto engage in?

If so, then where do our moral standards come into play? And if elected, how would Robinson’s tone affect his relationships with the rest of Congress and us — the constituents — across various topical issues?
