Abortion: What do you think?

I think it's tolerable, given there's a valid reason behind it. I don't particularly like the concept, though, especially when the pregnancy simply resulted from recklessness.
 
Im not against abortions
So if a girl gets raped she has to have the baby?
that doesn't seem fair to me....
But if a girl has sex all the time without protection just for the hell of it and keeps getting abortions, that's wrong
 
LOL kudos to OP, haven't laughed that hard in awhile. He quoted himself and agreed with all of his own points. Genius <3

Anyways, me being a heartless liberal, I obviously am PRO-DEATH. Or pro-abortion. Or pro-choice. Or whatever.

I have no sympathy to waste on unborn beings. They have no value to me, especially not when my time can be spent championing the rights of PEOPLE WITH LIVES, WHO EXIST, WHO BREATH, WHO EAT, WHO FEEL PAIN. People that the Republicans often like to ignore.

So by all means, they're willing to save an unborn child but when it gets into this cold, cruel world NO HELP. It's absolute bs and insanity.

The Paul I knew three years ago would like to have you dead.
 
I'm pro-choice :| Mind you, that's not pro-abortion, it just means I support a woman's choice whether or not to carry her baby to term (abortions can only happy in like the first trimester though).

Why? Because it is not my place to say anything. It isn't murder. And I don't see why so many people care about a fetus with no emotion or anything when there are such atrocities still being committed in this world against LIVING, BREATHING people. And the unborn fetuses gather more attention.

It sickens me. Not to mention civil rights issues that remain unresolved for us who are born. I still can't get married to a guy? Really? (ps- no, marriage was no invented by religion)

PLUS I believe that anyone who is pro-life should have at least one adopted child. That would actually be doing something for your cause. That would actually be putting your money where your mouth is. Would adopting a child be outside of your means? Ok, well you don't take that as an excuse for a woman wanting an abortion, so why should it apply to you?

etc :B
 
I think abortions should be allowed, no one should be forced to keep something they don't want. Also the precious stem cells can help cure stuff like AIDS, Cancer, and other stuffs.

I also heard that you don't get a soul until you're 1 year old, though I can't remember where I heard that from.... so yeah.
 
I don't like the idea of ending another human's life before they got a chance to live it, but I have no stance on abortion. I believe that it's a woman's choice when it comes to matters of abortion; not a man's and not a couple's. In the end it comes to her decision on whether she wants to have the baby or not.

If I got a woman pregnant, however, and wanted it and she didn't... I'd be lying if I would say that I wouldn't try to have her consider having it or adoption. I might not agree with her, but I would support her decision, regardless.

I feel like that's something I'd say.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Abortion

I'm against abortion unless the mother's life is in danger. I would say that I'm even against it in cases of rape, but I've heard some well-thought-out arguments from both sides, so I can't say I'm that clear-cut. For now, I would say that if there is an obvious threat to the mother's health due to trauma from becoming pregnant from rape (i.e. she becomes suicidal or whatnot), then the baby can be aborted.
 
But that is inferring that the life of the mother is more important than the life of her child. And who among us can judge that?
 
So the obvious flaw in your logic is that "oh I want an abortion, I'll just feign being suicidal" will be a common method to get what they want. We are creative sentient beings.

I suppose that is a possibility, yes. But I doubt it's easy to pretend to be suicidal and fool people who are trained to detect chronic liars (i.e. social workers).
 
I support a woman's choice, whether it be to abort the baby or not. It's her decision, not mine.
 
I am Pro-Life. I do not believe that an abortion is solely a decision about the mothers body because there are two bodies involved, not one.

That being said if we are to have legalized abortion it should be under the following conditions:
1) Women under 18 years of age would need to notify their parents if they wish to recieve an abortion unless she is the victim of rape or abuse by said parents. In those cases a judge can issue a waiver.
2) Once a fetus has reached the point where it would be viable if delivered, an abortion cannot be performed unless it meets criteria 3 or 4.
3) The women's pregnancy was the result of sexual assault or incest where the women is under 18.
4) Carrying the baby to term and delivering would pose a serious health risk to the potential mother.
 
Nicely said from the poster who obviously supports domestic violence through his chris brown obsession :|

Just...pointing out...

Criteria 3 is also Criteria 1, nice job (b'-')b and Criteria 4 can be solved with the precious unused stem cells. Though to be fair, a fetus is more of a blob than a body person thingy.
