+23 Abortion is OKAY. 16 year olds are not capable of raising kids. amirite?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

So if I killed you, you'd be fine with that as well? Under any circumstances, abortion is murder. If it's illegal to murder somebody, it should be illegal to abort your living, breathing, unborn child.

Funny that the death penalty for murderers has more people fighting against it than abortion.

It isn't just a fetus. It can feel and hear things. And by killing it, you're taking away it's chance at life. What if your mom had decided to abort? You wouldn't be alive right now. Do you realize how selfish it is to kill a baby just because you don't want it?

by Anonymous 13 years ago

It can't feel or hear anything until the 2nd or 3rd trimester. I think if a women wants an abortion, they should do it b/c it's their choice. Don't get upset with them b/c of what they're doing, just respect their decision. The world is over populated anyway so why is this a problem now?

An unborn fetus does not breath. If the act of breathing is how you define life, then you are contradicting yourself.

Okay, it isn't breathing. Sorry. But it is alive. It isn't just this thing inside you that isn't alive until it's born. Its a human being that deserves a chance to live.

whats abortion

by Anonymous 14 years ago

Just because they can't raise it doesn't mean they can't put it up for adoption. Abortion is murder. How come when you want a baby you call it a baby, but when you don't want it, it's suddenly a lump of cells or a fetus?

@qwazoo82 Some women aren't physically capable of carrying a healthy child or sometimes the child or mother is at risk to die because of compilations? Don't shove your opinion like that, or call people idiots, it makes you sound ridiculous. If that's the case, it should be ok right, why kill more than one person? It should NEVER be used as a method of birth control that's just disgusting and I completely agree with adoption. Read some more though, because there are women who have hadd to get abortions because of health reasons who hated their decision. It's a different situation for everyone, and it's also such a mentally and physically hard process for a woman to go through (but so is adoption, mentally, but there's open adoptions, too) I can't imagine how any woman could or would want to do that. But it's such a heated topic, and so many it's ok not ok reasons, and it's sad all around.

she may have choose to get pregnant, but she sure had sex, which gets you pregnant. And if you don't want to have to deal with that possibility, she shouldn't of had sex.

Look, I understand that there are some times an abortion is needed ( rape, medical complications, etc) but "I'm to young to have a kid" or " I couldn't support it if it lived" is not. A valid argument for killing a child. That child could grow up to do something amazing, and you are taking away it's chance to live. If you cannot support it, put it up for adoption because there are good families who can raise your baby. Besides that, most women who have abortions regret it for he rest of their lives because they are tortured with the thought of thier kid and who it could have been and what it could have done. Many need to see a counselor and feel guilty for life.
