If you make abortion illegal, it will be a repeat of what happened during the acholol ban. People were smuggling acholol when they can and it begain(sic) a new kind of crime.
If you make it illegal woman will be in the streets with coathangers like they use to. Which will indanger their lives.
| Really? Here are some facts:
"Let’s look at the late 1950s. Those were the supposed bad old days. All abortions were illegal, and illegal abortionists were alleged to be busy. In the July 1960 edition of The American Journal of Public Health, there was an article by Dr. Mary Calderone, founder of SIECUS and medical director of the Planned Parenthood Federation of America. She stated:
"90% of illegal abortions are being done by physicians. Call them what you will, abortionists or anything else, they are still physicians, trained as such; . . . They must do a pretty good job if the death rate is as low as it is . . . Abortion, whether therapeutic or illegal, is in the main no longer dangerous, because it is being done well by physicians."
But what about coat hanger abortions?
Your authors have lectured nationwide on abortion on an average of one city a week for almost three decades. We frequently ask the audience to provide documented proof of a self-induced coat hanger abortion. In all this time no one has given us a single case. It may well be — there never were any coat hanger abortions. Source Quote: |
So the real question is who should have the choice? the state or the woman?
| How about the State....but only when they "get it right"? Quote: |
There is no way the courts will over-rule Roe vs. Wade because of the fact that about half the population believes that it is the choice of a woman.
| This simply is not a true statement. See this article NARAL trumpets results of misleading survey claiming 59% of Americans favor Roe v. Wade Quote:
I think everyone is intitled to their opinion on this issue. But the only way abortion is going to be viewed as a unmoral act is if you change the hearts of people, not by the law.
One person's beliefs should not be forced on anothers.
| You said: "One person's beliefs should not be forced on anothers"
Isn't your belief forced on another? Because of YOU and others like you, the unborn have been denied their right to life. How can you say your beliefs have not been forced on others?
What if your parents had decided to abort you? You are living now, but what if your fate had been like so many millions who were not so lucky? If you had been aborted and had the opportunity to speak out, what would you say then? Would you say that others had the right to decide your fate?
Your statement is a contradiction. You claim to believe that one person's beliefs should not be forced on another. But yours does exactly that.
You don't really believe that everyone is entitled to their opinion. There are many who don't have the ability to speak, yet you condemn them to death, without a trial and without cause.
Quite frankly, I'll give you the benefit of a doubt. I believe you are a victim of lies. You hear someone give what you believe is a sound argument for abortion without checking it for yourself. In other words, you're the typical victim of "the blind leading the blind". They both fall into the ditch. You're on some(one elses) mad crusade that you embraced most likely because you believed them to be "the winning side". But don't be embarrassed. You're not alone. You're actually in the majority. But, you're still wrong. |
