pro-life-computer-hackers. imbeciles.

In twenty years I've seen things that are bemusing, things that are irritating and things that are just plain strange.

All of these things, be they small, big, or in-between, have never compared to an article I found in the news today. People have been trying to hack into the computer systems of the UK's biggest abortion provider, BPAS. Why do I find this strange? Well it's not the fact it's been done, there are enough people in the world to actively disagree with abortion to attempt this; but there have been THOUSANDS of attempts. Even so, why is this strange?

Well, it would appear that you need a degree in I.T if you are going to have any chance of showing an active disagreement with abortion. Now I know a lot of I.T people and they are predominantly male. So as I see it, it is men who are trying to cause problems for the abortion clinicians. This makes no sense to me, as men cannot comprehend what the woman is going through.

Well, get a bloody grip of yourselves. I, for one, neither disagree nor agree with abortion, it is entirely experiential, it is something that I would hope that people I care for are not involved in, but less for the 'I hate the fact you are killing a baby' and more a 'wow, this must be incredibly difficult for you.' The last thing I would want for close friends or family going through the said procedure is some cretin at the other end of a broadband line interfering with the technology that is going to help them along the way with the hardest decision of their lives.

So, you thousands of men in your anonymous waves, find another way to be a pain in the arse.
