-Denying a woman the right to do what she wants with her body
-Forcing your own subjective morals upon others so that don't get to choose
-Ensuring millions of abortions happen illegally without professional help where the mother may die

>"pro-life" threads op isn't hidden by the people who oppose the OPs viewpoints >pro-choice threads op is hidden by people who avoid the OPs viewpoints I thought the "pro-life" people were supposed to be the tolerant ones with moral values while the dirty no good baby killing pro-choice people were supposed to be a bunch of angry moral hating losers.

I want to ask pro-choicers a question. Should [url=http://www.mayoclinic.com/images/image_popup/mcdc7_position_for_birth.jpg]this[/url] baby be eligible for abortion? I mean why not, it hasn't been born yet right?

If the fetus can't yet survive outside the womb then I consider it to be fair game.

My biggest problem with abortion is that I feel there are too many other viable options to justify it. There are thousands of couple who can't conceive and would give anything to have that child in the womb. The biggest thing, however, is that to me its just the refusal to accept responsibility for their actions. You made a mistake, you didn't use birth control/condoms/morning after pill, and you got pregnant, now live with your actions. To deny another human being the right to a chance at life is just to put it plainly, cruel. You could be denying someone a best friend, a husband/wife, denying the world a great leader or scientist, but you're not thinking of the human being or what effect its life might have on people wether it be small scale or global, you're only thinking of yourself "my body" "my right" "my life", in my opinion, that "my, mine, me" turns into "our, ours, and us" at pregnancy. I've talked to mothers who got pregnant at 15 telling me that their kids were the best thing to ever happen to them. I've known gang members, street thugs who've looked at the thought of abortion with disgust. Just that a mother can so easily murder her child because she doesn't want it is just too much for them to swallow. To deny life to another human being simply because you don't want to go through with the pregnancy is not only unethical, its malicious.

ohlol The "pro-life people should be ashamed" thread gets auto-hid, while the "pro-choice" counterpart doesn't. Gee, I wonder why...

Edited by CrazzySnipe55: 1/26/2013 10:13:23 PMAlso, to everyone who says that fetuses, embryos, and other unborn things are humans and/or have human rights, I present to you: the 14th amendment. Specifically Section 1. [quote]Section 1. [b][u]All persons born or naturalized in the United States, and subject to the jurisdiction thereof, are citizens of the United States and of the State wherein they reside.[/u][/b] No State shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States; nor shall any State deprive any person of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.[/quote] All laws and rights of the constitution and all the laws of the US government are based on US citizens and the rights they're allotted. However, in the constitution, you don't get those rights unless you're born or naturalized (here). Therefore, anyone crying for anti-abortion reform is also crying for amending the 14th amendment.

I've changed my stance on Abortion over the years. I was previously staunchly pro-life. I'm still pro-life in spirit, but I'm not willing to tell someone who's been -blam!-, a victim of incest, or someone that has a high probability of dying from child birth that they must have the child. I can't support it being made illegal with exceptions simply because we'll see a surge in -blam!- cases. However, I do take issue with the whole "her body" thing. The fetus has its own genetic code. It is not a part of her body. It is a separate entity, that regularly multiplies, which qualifies it as life.

Edited by Bucket of Tears: 1/26/2013 5:08:07 PMI think the fact that people are ok with that about 3000 unborn children are aborted every day shows how low society has gone.

I'm pro-IDGAF, but: > Not a right > It's not all that subjective when you oppose killing > Her choice to risk that

1) Someone has to be able to speak for the unborn child. They have rights too. 2) Right to human life. 3) This is like the war on drugs, never going to be able to permanently stop.

-A woman's "own" body? Nope, they're killing a human being. Has much more to do with the person growing inside her, not just "her" body. -Wrong. Murder isn't "subjective." -You're right... We should just throw-up our hands and "let it happen." Just like with stealing, -blam!-, drugs.. on and on. I mean, people are going to do it anyways, right?

LOL @ Teenage mothers who dont want to take responsibility for their own actions.

Edited by Divine Thunder2: 1/26/2013 6:35:10 PMBecuase millions of abortions would happen illegally, right? Hell, the mother also has a chance to die from an abortion today because the practices have never changed. Nothing like sucking the baby apart with a tube and then scraping around the uterine walls to get out what's left, right?
-
Personally, I dislike abortion. However, I'm not against it and if people want it, let them have it. I'm not going to let my morals blind me.
-
How [b]DARE[/b] you tell me to be ashamed of being pro-life? The only people who should be ashamed are those pro-MURDER people, like you. Abortion should be illegal, and pro-choice people should not be allowed in politics.

Edited by Ninjabird00: 1/26/2013 5:58:22 PMBest to know how the woman became pregnant in the first place. Maybe she was rayped-, maybe she just slept with a random guy who has no interest in taking care of a kid, maybe it was with her boyfriend, maybe her husband. If she was -rayped!-, I don't object to her wanting to get an abortion. No kid wants to know that his or her dad was a rapist. But if it was with her boyfriend or husband then I think she should keep the child unless it's a threat to her life.
-
OP, what if your birth was due to cause of unwilling sex? Would you want never to exist? And about the subjective morals thing, you could technically get into that with [i]any[/i] argument in politics, like 'should murder be allowed' 'should thievery be allowed', etc. That's not an overly valid excuse.

IMO, Abortion should only be considered if it's a life and death scenario. (i.e Mother will potentially die from giving birth, the baby will die shortly after birth, the baby has a life-threatening defect, etc.)
