100% pro choice. The government should say out of women's bodies. And why the hell do these pro lifers care so much about the fetus when half of them wouldn't give two craps about the baby once it's actually born?

 I mean of course abortion isn't always the best option, but sometimes it's the only option, and it needs to be legal in the extreme cases like rape. And most pro lifer would argue "she shouldn't have had sex in the first place!!!1" but what's past is past, and the girl can't go back in time and fix what she did wrong. Sometimes abortion is the only viable option and it needs to be available otherwise there's going to be underground abortionists doing the procedures and it won't be pretty. 


This is not holding the girl responsible. How will the girl feel next time she can have unprotected sex? "Well I dont care cause I can have another abortion that daddy will take care of..."

She can fix what she did wrong. By havign the baby and putting it up for adoption. A child parentless is better than killing it off. No one is saying the extreme cases can not have abortions, but those girls who think of it as an easy way out shouldnt have that right.

 Pro lifers want to save innocent children from being put to death even before they get the chance to live. To think of this is wrong, well then you are with the likes of murderers who do not value life.


And I think it's immoral to equate the life of a victim who has been murdered to a fetus, it's all about your perspective.. Im sorry but anyone who equates abortion to murder is at least part crazy in my mind. 

Look I'm not advocating that abortion should be just another form of birth control that should be used as opposed to adoption, but you gotta think, when a women wants to go through a harsh procedure such as abortion she probably has a very important reason to do so. I really doubt many women would just go through this procedure without giving it much serious thought. Abortion shouldn't be just a substitute for birth control pills, but for those extreme cases it needs to be legal, and many of the pro lifers don't even want that.

I'm all about saving fetuses as much as the next guy, but the bottom line is, a woman should have more rights than a fetus.
