Abortion should be legal in my opinion, for these reasons.

1) I don't believe life starts at conception, the first sign of life in my opinion is the ability to feel pain - this cannot happen until after the 26th week.

2) The world already has more humans than it can support. It doesn't need more.

3) Illegalizing abortions only makes people have illegal abortions.

4) Quite often an abortion will end up screwing up three peoples lives, the parents and the childs. I'd rather wait until the parents are wanting a child than having one forced upon them.



@mrstickball. Your argument about the birth rate is incorrect. Abortion often only determines when somebody has a child, not if they have a child. If somebody has an accidental child at 18, it's the same for the birth rate as if they have an abortion at 18 then have a child on purpose at 21.
