I think abortion is murder and it is wrong. But I feel that it should be legal. Here's my question that explains this viewpoint.



How many fatherless children whose mothers were willing to kill them before they were born do you want in this world?



Sometimes abortion has to be legal, but it should be strongly frowned upon by society, like it is. There is a correllation of reduction in crime to abortion. Basically a good amount of aborted babies would have been put into a bad situation and been more likely to become criminals.



If we don't protect endangered species, we assume we will regret it later on. Causing a creature to cease existence is as final as shooting a 78 year old man in the face with a shotgun. You can't undo it....yet. Science is pretty powerful. Screw endangered species, we'll find a way to recreate them.

This should be easy to understand, but I will break it down anyway:



1. It is illegal to kill certain species of animals because they are endagered. That is to say, if we are allowed to kill them, there are so few that it could potentially eliminate the species completely.



2. It was outlawed to kill slaves because they are humans or people, which constitutes murder....murder is against the law.



3. Abortion is legal because there are circumstances that make it a resonable (and even fair) solution. I agree that there should be a law preventing abortion as a form of birth control, but it should be allowed for, say for example, a 12 year-old girl who has been impregnated by her father..or....a victim of rape that resulted in a pregnancy. In my opinion, you can't just make it illegal across the board because there are circumstances where I would support the ability to have the choice.



I consider myself to be a conservative republican, but I do not belive that abortion should be allowed to be a choice for people who decide, for whatever reason, they don't want a child, but should be allowed for the victims (both women and young girls) of terrible circumstances.



Thanks for listening....Take care.

Because "rights" is a topic that will never be agreed upon, and never fully understood. Think about all of the reasons that have been argued: Some say it's not a living human when conception first takes place. Some say the mother has the say so. Some say it has to be born to be a life. Bottom line, unless the pregnancy puts the mother's life in serious risk, it needs to be called murder. Put the baby up for adoption for God's sake (even in a rape). To all readers----"what if you had been scooped out at six weeks?"

Why not. We haven't had slaves in over 140 years so I can not answer for that. We protect endangered spieces as well as another whole list of things under Ecology. Abortion will be praticed whether it is legal or not so it may as well be legal and done by reputable doctors than in backrooms with coathangers or bycycle spokes.

Yeah I incredibly have and it substitute into incredibly unhappy. i substitute into driving (the linked fee cut back) and it substitute into dark, then unexpectedly, in my headlights theres this super black factor. I went at present over it and did no longer even have time to surrender and react. i finished interior the path of the great street and ran back to the animal. It substitute right into a canine...I cried for days. actually, I felt like i killed a individual and the considered being the reason of something else's discomfort substitute into insufferable and that i wasn't waiting to stress for awhile. it substitute into unhappy by way of fact the canine substitute into incredibly working faraway from it is proprietors who have been attempting to snatch the canine in the previous it have been given run over. I held the canine and it substitute into bleeding throughout me. I incredibly have a weak spot for animals, yet for some years i finished killing cock roaches by way of fact i felt undesirable, till i found out that interior the Bible it talks approximately how pests (roaches, ants, bugs etc..) are the plague. So, i kill all of them. except that's a canine, cat, fowl, or something of that nature.

it is all about politics.abortion should be illegal unless it is a rape case. everyone says its a free country but they never talk about the responsibility that comes with freedom.adoption is the answer for unwanted pregnacy.
