Abortion

Is it murder? Is the Fetus a Person?

Is it a woman's right? Is a Fetus just tissue?

What are your opinions on abortion?

Pro-Life.

Abortion should be allowed in cases such as rape and such.
But not just because it happened, because the Fetus is a person.

Yeah, well the problem with that is when is it rape? The woman may just claim she was raped to get an abortion. Then we have to go to court to try to prove it was rape. That in itself takes tons of taxpayers money. And if she really was raped, it's very hard to get that proven in court, because all trials like that pretty much come down to his word against hers. Then a woman who was actually raped couldn't get an abortion because it was found as not rape.

I personally think all abortion is wrong. If you don't want the baby, put it up for adoption. I would rather live in an orphanage than be dead.

But would you want to go through life feeling like your hated and unloved? Like your mom threw you out cause you were just another problem?

I'm not sure with abortion. Under certain circumstances, I find it okay. But, under other circumstances, I hate it. If you go get knocked up like a little skank, it's your problem. But if your brutaly raped, that's a hate baby, everytime you look at that kid you see that night... I guess it's a tough decision..

Are you honestly saying you would rather be dead? I honestly would probably hate my mom, not myself.

No, but I'd hate to carry around that feeling. Not all people have the same way to react to a scenario. And someone (not me) may just want to die if they feel like that. Some would hate their parents. Some would make do with what they have and live happy.

I'm sure we can agree that most people would rather live. And this may sound terrible, but if they really want to die, they can take care of that too. At least give them a chance to live.

Yeah, reading over it, it does sound terrible, but oh well, I got my point across.

I agree.

It's wrong in my opinion. You can't kill someone. It's murder. Whether they're a fetus or a 40 year old. Murder. If you decide to just go have a good time, then get pregnant, it's your fault. You'll have to just bear with it. I just think it's unacceptable.
