Abortion has been one of the leading debates of all time. Some consider it to be immoral and even contemplate it as murder. Abortion is; “the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy.” Making abortions illegal would not prevent them from continuing. When a woman is in desperate need of an abortion, she will do everything it takes to have one. Abortion is a necessary medical procedure that has proven itself suitable for society, families

We humans need to weed out the weak and unwanted from our species to ensure the survival of healthy human beings as a whole. If a fetus is unwanted I believe that it is the mother’s decision of aborting, for that fetus has no decision or knowledge of the world yet. If born with a defect, inhibiting its ability to further realize its existence, I am for euthanasia. There have been around 40 million abortions since the Roe v. Wade decision was finalized on January 22, 1973. Many strong opinions arise

Abortion: Pro-life or Pro-choice Abortion has been one of the most argued topics. Those who are against abortion are known as pro-life, and those who support it are known as pro-choice. Whether or not people support it, the biggest argument is whether or not the unborn child, or fetus, is human. Everyone knows it is wrong to kill a human, but at what point does an unborn fetus become a human. Most pro-lifers say it’s right at conception, and pro-choice say it’s when the fetus is born. Pro-life

The scariest time of my life was the time when I was going to shower but something was stopping me. Before I went in the shower to go to a party, I noticed that there was a flying roach in the bath tub.

All Unborn Lives Matter: A Pro-Life Stance on Abortion Unborn children do not hold the responsibility of a mistake that a man and women made. Abortion means “the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy,” (Dictionary). Abortion is fundamentally wrong because it goes against the rights of every human being under the 5th, 9th, and 14th amendment. Abortion should be illegal because it violates the rights of unborn children and it ends the

Where to draw the line is one of the great questions of human existence, and it is never completely settled” (Fleischman). A common misconception is that abortion is indeed black and white and can be interpreted easily but that is just not the case. There is a lot of grey area when it comes to the
