Abortion

[Bursche]

Acumen's post accurately shows my own views.

What I really find disturbing is the roles liberals and conservatives take on this issue. Many people see liberals as the "savior" of the people since they push for more equality and a better life for all. And yet they dont want to defend the most defenceless thing in this world.

And conservatives, generally seen as the greedy, independent thinkers instead of what is best for all, are the ones trying to outlaw abortion. This is the reason why I consider myself more conservative than liberal.

I wish we could just outlaw abortion and be done with it. "Choice" that is complete BS. If you use that argument, why not have the choice to do whatever you want with your body. Why cant we use drugs on our ownself? Or drink and drive if it doesnt endanger someone else?

Pro-Choice means Pro-Antiresponsibility. Condoms are the cheapest thing since sliced bread, and if you dont use one, then that is your own fault. Birth control can be given at free clinics everywhere. There are so many ways to prevent pregnancies, and yet those who have abortion are just generally the ones who are, mind this term, stupid enough to risk it.

Ive known girls who are less than 18 and have had several abortions. You are defending that? We need to evolve as a society and make people take responsibility for their actions, especially sex. I bet if abortion was made illegal, STD's among youth would drop.

And for the future argument that there would be more and more children put in foster homes, well it is our right as a government to take care of them and give them the best chance to live a successful life. I'm sure conservatives and liberals both would support more government spending to help these children instead of having them killed before they had a chance.

As for those who would have abortions anyway, I would personally prosecute them. Abortion clinics would face higher charges while individuals would serve 1-2 years. People need to face responsibility, especially when it comes to sex.

"Women have the right to do whatever with their body". Yes they do, but not when it comes to the body living inside of them.
