[u]Last Week Tonight[/u] always provides humorous news segments on sensetive topics, and this was no different. The U.S. Government is always claiming to make more and more abortion laws "For women's health", when it only makes abortion a more and more difficult process. So, #Offtopic, what is your stance on abortion and abortion clinics?

  • To me, it comes down to an ethics question: If a train was going to run over a baby, but you could change the train's path the kill a woman that has lived for many years, would you change the train's path? I think that the life of a younger human is always more valuable than the life of an older one. Maybe you think that the convenience of the women is worth the life of an unborn baby. The question was an extreme one as most women having abortions aren't going to die otherwise. Maybe in cases of -blam!- and incest where the kid could be messed up I might be convinced otherwise, but it should never be a proud act to kill an unborn child. If the parents made the mistake of not getting proper protection, they should deal with the consequences. Right now, women are videotaping their abortions and acting as if they should be proud and show the world that they're doing it. It should never be like that. Abortions shouldn't be something as casual as "Honey, I'm going to the doctor for another abortion, I'll be home in a couple hours." I want to ask for some responses as to why you might or might not be against my opinion. To me, I think the life of any child, unborn or not, is worth more than the life or convenience of any mom.
