Making a Case for Pro-Choice

Merriam-Webster defines abortion is defined as the termination of a pregnancy after, accompanied by, resulting in, or closely followed by the death of the embryo or fetus. Quite predictably, abortion has been one of the most heavily debated topics of our generation and will likely continue to be for the foreseeable future. Abortion is now legal in the United States because of the Supreme Court case of Roe vs. Wade. There are several different opinions on whether it is morally permissible to terminate a pregnancy, ranging from abortion at all stages is immoral to abortion is moral only before the 20th week of pregnancy. In my opinion, American moral philosopher Judith Jarvis Thomson has one of the best stances on abortion.

Abortion is a highly debated topic over pro-life or pro-choice being right or wrong. Abortion is the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. It is a medical procedure used to end a pregnancy and cause the death of a fetus.

First off, women that want an abortion might just not be in the right position to have one. As President Barack Obama said, “I would rather my daughters have an abortion then be punished for their own sexual acts, and have to screw up their lives with an unwanted child.” Over fifty percent of politicians are pro-choice, they believe that abortion is moral and should be legal. Some people can make decisions in the split second that they do not realize could impact the rest of their lives. Once a person understands what they have done, it should be their choice as to what to do next in the

An abortion is when you decide that you want to terminate your pregnancy which usually takes place before the first 28 weeks. Some people think that if you have an abortion then you are committing murder, but many think that it is just a fetus and not a fully developed living being. In the beginning stages of pregnancy, I believe that in the uterus there is a fetus who is not an actually living thing. So it is okay for the female to decide if that she does not want the baby and it not count as murder because it is a fetus and it isn't fully developed yet. If a women decides that she does not want to have a baby for whatever reason I think that she should be able to but she has only 20 weeks to decide. If you really do not want the baby you should already know when you find out.

Abortion is one of the controversial political issues in United State of America today. It has generated much heat, thought, opinions and votes from different angles, school of thought, religions, economic status, and members of the government. So, what is abortion? Abortion is defined as the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy. Abortion can be in term of surgical or miscarriage. According to U.S National Library of Medicine, “a miscarriage is the spontaneous loss of a fetus before the 20th week of pregnancy.” A Miscarriage could be as a result of stress, genes, environmental toxins, alcohol or drug abuse, hormones problems, smoking, and diseases such as diabetes, reproductive organs’ weakness, and infections.

Abortion is a hot topic in United States politics as of late, and rightly so. Though religion, costs, maternal psychological damage, and societal morality are often cited as reasons to oppose abortion, a woman’s right to make her own decisions should always prevail. Abortion should be nationally legalized during the first trimester of pregnancy because Roe V. Wade has declared abortion a “fundamental right” to women, fetuses are incapable of feeling pain during the period when most abortions take place, women should be given the right to choose what happens with their body, and access to legal abortions decreases the

Out of the United State’s hefty population of about 320 million people, only about 68 percent of its citizens meet the voting age requirement. On the other hand, recent voting statistics indicate that only 146 million people are registered to vote, and even fewer of them make it to the polls. As a registered voter, it’s imperative to educate yourself through comprehensive research about the candidates, their views, and how they intend to run the country. Additionally, many sources confirmed my preconceived candidate choices by asserting Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders as the top contenders due to our similar ideals. However, further research shows that for some issues, such as raising the minimum wage, Clinton’s plan of action proved too disadvantageous for my liking. For this reason, coupled with many others,

With the evolving moral standards of society, abortions are becoming more and more justified. Abortions, the practice of removing a fertilized egg from a mother, has become a controversial issue in American society, but should be generally supported because women should have the choice on how they choose their eggs to go on, whether it be to end further growth of the fetus or not. Women have a right to control what happens in and with their body.

Despite already being legal, most states have many restrictions that make it a complicated process to get a safe abortion. Government officials who are pro-life are trying to create more restrictions because of ethical and moral factors. Making abortion illegal won't stop women from getting abortions, it will only make them unsafe. We need to remove the restrictions and create more funding so clinics can stay open and available to women all around the United States. Planned Parenthood in the U.S. has had approximately 2.5 million clients in the last year and with more and more of these clinics closing down, it’s becoming more risky to get an abortion and it is also getting harder for women to get mammograms, birth control, and

Over the years controversies on abortion was a salient issue and today the topic still remain the debate, said Driedger, Leo, and Shiva S. Halli. Ongoing debate whether if it right or wrong to end a life causes tension worldwide. Pro-choice argue that it’s their right to decide whether abortion is the option. Determining whether the abortion is a right or wrong, the decision depends on an individual believe, situation, and preference according to NARAL Pro-choice America staff in 2016. Pregnancy occurs from sexual activity whether voluntary participating or un-consensual, but when pregnancy resulted unexpectedly women may seek abortion. Some common reasons why women have an abortion are because too young, victim of rape or incest, contraceptive failure, financial issue, inconvenient, career priority, and without any reason abortion would be an easier decision according to Driedger, Leo, and Shiva S. Halli. Pro-Choice is a movement act that allows women rights to terminate pregnancy base on the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court case in 1973, said FedWorld official webpage 2016.

Abortion refers to the termination of pregnancy at any stage that does not affect birth; medically, according to Oxford Dictionary abortion is defined as the termination of pregnancy by the removal or expulsion from the uterus of a foetus or embryo by natural causes before it is able to survive independently. Abortion is a controversial topic that causes many arguments because of the different opinions that persons have. Abortion has two main proponents, persons that are for abortion and those that are against abortion. Those that are for abortions think that woman have the right to do anything with their body but those that are against abortion sticks to what the Bible says about taking a life of

Women’s rights have always been underestimated. One aspect of women’s rights that receives a lot of attention is reproductive rights. Often times, people think of reproductive rights and automatically think of abortion, but, reproductive rights can include many things like abortion and birth control/ contraceptives, etc. Although reproductive rights are for both men and women, women often have a harder time exercising their rights. The famous 1973 case of Roe v. Wade made history in women’s reproductive rights by legalizing abortion, its efforts for abortion to not be criminalized were reached and allowed women to receive abortions without being criminalized. Yet, since 1973 there has been many efforts that set up undue burdens which have strained the rights of many women. There have been many social groups that work towards both side of the spectrum of reproductive rights like: Pro-Choice and Pro-Life. Campaigns, which work as political or social organizers that strive towards achieving a particular thing or area, have made the efforts to fight for the reproductive rights that they believe in. Furthermore, there are many key campaigns that work towards a specific aspect of reproductive rights. For example, Planned Parenthood Action typically fights for birth control, while NRLA usually fights for the rights of women to be able to decided if they want the abortion or not, the National Right to Life (NRLC) fights for abortions to be illegal and tries to influence people into

Abortion is an operation to end a pregnancy by removing the embryo or fetus from the womb of a female. Whether it is right or wrong, whether you are a Christian or not, whether you are Atheist or you don’t really care, nobody has the right to morally tell you what to do with your god given body.

Abortion is referred as the termination of a pregnancy or of a fetus that is incapable of survival (Dictionary.com). Abortion is morally wrong and illegal because the fetus is a person. It is the same thing as murder. The reasons people have abortions are they are not ready to handle the responsibility of another human being, the fetus may have a birth defect, mother’s heath is an issue, rape, or simply because they don’t want any more children (Abortioninfo). The majority of people that have abortions are teenagers. Abortion is flat out wrong and should be banned. Being that abortion is immoral no matter the circumstances, justifies the need for a law to make it illegal.

Abortion is the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy that is often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy. As life begins at conception, unborn babies are human beings and thus have the right to life. The federal Unborn Victim Of Violence Act that was made to protect unborn babies from murder states that anybody intentionally killing an unborn baby should be punished for killing a human being. Abortion is a murder because it is taking away someone’s life. Even though the baby isn’t born yet, the fetus in the mother’s womb still feels pain while being aborted. No person, not even a mother, has the right to hurt someone. To keep a child, who can’t even speak, from growing and from living is a murder.
