As I have never experienced dealing with this issue personally it is difficult for me to completely understand the issue. However, I feel that one of the main problems with society is the number of pre-marital pregnancies that are actually occuring. The girl that is 13 the walks in to get an abortion should never have gotten pregnant in the first place. There are adequate methods of birth control availiable. Years ago, society viewed pre-marital birth with disgust. However over the years we have come to gradually accept it, this is the main problem that we should be focusing on. Abortions should not be permitted unless under certain conditions (rape, incest, etc..), not only because you are ending a human life but also because it will act as a deterrent for getting pregnant in the first place. No matter what anyone says, the embryo is an innocent life unable to defend itself. We need to set up protections for unborn children, so that they too will be able to have a fair chance in life.

How is the embryo considered to have any life? It does not have life till the day of birth.

Liberal Guy you were once an embryo, would you want protections as an unborn child to protect your right to life? It is unjust that future citizens of the United States are not even given the chance to live.

abortion
abortion will never be illegal in America. the right wingers use it as a hot topic when they need distraction from other issues that they have less support behind.

sexyconservative said "It is not morally right that currently in our country a 13 year old girl can walk into an abortion clinic and receive and abortion without parental consent, yet that same girl can not go to the dentist and get a tooth pulled without parental consent."

Not true. In Planned Parenthood v. Casey (1992) The Supreme Court essentially ruled that a state could restrict the rights of minors in abortions. Today, only Connecticut, Maine, and the District of Columbia, allow minors to seek an abortion without parental consent.

I can't take your argument seriously if you don't know the facts. I mean, yes, technically you are right because a 13 year old girl in Connecticut, Maine , and DC could get an abortion without parental consent. Sure, they couldn't get a tooth pulled without parental consent. But let's not make any faulty analogies here. A tooth and a fetus are very different things.
But it don't take much to get me by
So just booze me up and get me high
