Pro-Choice is Murder!

There Are Always Alternatives to Murder

Howard Roark
Abortion has been a growing problem throughout our nation and continues to grow as it gains more support from the federal and state governments. This is a very controversial topic and it has split many liberals and conservatives across the nation.

I condone abortion in only the following circumstances. One being if the life of the mother is in danger and abortion is the only way to her survival, and two is if the woman was in fact a rape victom of some sort.

People argue that the woman should have the choice of whether or not to murder the child as long as it is inside her body. Since when has it ever been justified to murder? They argue that there should be a choice? That woman made the choice when she had sex. Wow did she just learn that night that that is what sex does? That is what sex is for? Is that a wake up call to anyone? Sure it might seem like a fun past time, but it is serious when it affects the life of another human being.

The woman and the man made the choice the night they chose to have sex. If the woman becomes pregnant she needs to take responsibility for her actions and face the consequences of her choices. If the girl is too young to become a mother, not only is she too young to be having sex as well, but there is always to option of adoption!

I have a close friend who has been trying to have kids for years, but due to complications of her body she is unable to have children naturally. My friend would be more than willing to adopt and she would be an excellent parent and there are many more people willing to do just the same. Give children a chance. Give life a chance.

    Choice? The woman having sex already made a choice, and why should the innocent victim have to suffer. Depending on how many weeks the mother is pregnant the routine for an abortion is the Dr. puts a whole in the back of the baby's neck and sticks a rod into it and sucks out the baby's brain. Don't tell me that is not murder!!! If you're reading this SMILE your mom chose life!!!

    I am a mother of seven children, and I am against abortion for myself. However, I am all for choice. It is a woman's right to have an abortion, if she chooses to do so. No one has the right to criticize her for that choice.

    Very interesting piece. While I would not go so far as to say that abortion is murder, since I am reluctant to call a fetus a human being, I agree that it is difficult to condone such a gruesome act simply as a means of birth control. I, personally, do not.

    On the other hand, I am glad that you do not make the claim that abortion should be illegal. I don't know whether or not you hold that position, but at least you recognize that it is a separate issue altogether.

    Shut UP you morons First of all - guys should have no say in this....it is not their bodies and guaranteed they are not going to be the ones taking care of the baby. Second of all a fetus could not survive on its own outside my body....it is not like abortions are being done at 9 months. Good Lord you are all righteous until it's your daughter who gets pregnant at 15 or raped.

    you know what! How would you feel if you were underwater for 9 months and just before you pop up, we chop your head off!

    Unfortunately, the US Supreme Court is not equipped to deal with the abortion issue. Sadly enough, some people who have abortions talk about it as if they were getting rid of a wart. They don't consider the fetus to be human. I suggest we pray for them.

    I can't stand the women who say it is a private health issue. It is the same thing as saying that kiddnaping your dependent grandparents, that depend on your physical help, in the privacy of your own home is legal because it is a private health issue. This just goes to prove Darwin wrong. Organisms don't evolve into a greater organism. If they did we would not have so manny people clinging to these diabolical beleifes.

    I hope you come all the way over and someday realize that all abortion is wrong.

    There's too many people anyway, esp. without the unwanted ones. Why burden our planet, or the system anymore for something that doesn't even have a formed brain yet?

    Life is not sacred and people need to stop acting like it is. This stupid pro-life-spit-out-fifty-babies logic is going to lead to the death of humanity entirely; but you don't care because you think some magical event will happen and we'll get a new planet to trash before that.

    Please use logic.

    Abortion is murder. You can't kill someone just because they are a burden to you. If that was legal then we could kill all the people on welfare and disability. I hope that in a few years we look back on this as some of our darkest times and realize how insane we were to ever let abortion happen in the first place.
