Answer 1

WHY do you guys ALWAYS want to dictate what a WOMAN can or cannot with her own body? GET OVER IT already.

Answer 2

I didn't say to make them illegal. I said put safeguards in place to protect women from a system that promotes abortion for profit over mental and physical health.

Answer 3

Very good point.

Answer 4

An egg is not a chicken. An acorn is not a tree. they only have the POTENTIAL of becoming a chicken or tree. An embryo can be frozen and survive. A human being cannot be frozen and survive. Therefore, an embryo is not a human being. QED.

Answer 5

Excellent point!

Answer 6

According to your own logic, why on Earth, would you make any exception??

Answer 7

There should be support required to show truth about when a child in the womb feels pain and is viable, the facts about increased risk of breast and cervical cancer and the other life shortening side effects plus the increase in negative mental health issues elated to women who have abortions during mandatory pre operation counseling.
The clinic should be required to pay for insurance to support the counseling that must be done by a private 3rd party not connected to the clinic who will also give free lifetime medical and mental support related to the abortion. When an abortion is done is should be against the law for it to be done by anyone other than a licensed Surgeon.

Answer 8

It is well-established, there is even a bill passed by the House and in committee in the Senate certifying that at 5 months in the womb, pain is a reality.

Answer 9

We all know how that works. Make abortions illegal and women will be showing up at hospitals with punctured urteruses because of clotheshanger abortions.

Answer 10

Our entire healthcare system is a system for profit over people's mental and physical health. For profit insurance companies have no business in healthcare. Its a clear conflict of interest. They are incentivized to provide as crappy service as possible at the expense of people.

Answer 11

Absolutely not & I don't care about anyone's fairy-tales or pseudo-science. A fetus s nothing more than a mass in the woman. If she can have hysterectomy, then this is nothing more.

Answer 12

Come on, jt. You know better than asking that... Well... It does give hell of a lot of points, though.

Answer 13

WHY do you guys ALWAYS want to dictate what a WOMAN can or cannot with her own body? GET OVER IT already.

Answer 14

If a woman became pregnant she already ceded authority.

Answer 15

That's nonsensical.

Answer 16

Absolutely.

Answer 17

I agree, I think it's because a lot of men are control freaks.

Answer 18

It's not what a woman is doing to her body..It's what she's doing to someone else's. She's killing it. If she can't control her own body- like keeping her legs closed or popping a pill then she should have to be responsible enough to face the consequence. The child deserves to live it's life. Who is she to kill it?

Answer 19

Criminalizing voluntary abortion is not only aggressively stupid, but cannot achieve what the anti-choice clowns think they want.

Read "Abortion: an Excerpt from Hope" and fix firmly in your mind the following concept:

"Pregnancy police."


===============
"Look: I shouldn't have to be the one to tell you that you're going to have to grow up, swallow hard, and do your best accept the fact that, as fervently as you loathe abortion, a great many other people in this country disagree with you just as fervently. It's absolutely vital that we shut down this endless, pointless argument, and move on with our real work — fulfilling the promise of the American Revolution."

Answer 20

Masturbationists have killed trillions and trillions of americans.
Shouldn't 13-year old boys caught masturbating be imprisoned for the rest of their lives? Or maybe just chop of the hand they're using.

Answer 21

I haven't been brainwashed. And I have a brain. You don't. Not one active cell. A paragon of the republican base.

“They return to Honduras, and three or four days later the newspaper reports that they’ve been killed,” she said. “I think the United States should open up a bit and take a careful look at every Honduran who’s in its immigration jails, just trying to save their lives.”

"Children are uniquely vulnerable to gang violence. The street gangs known as "maras" — M-18 and Mara Salvatrucha, or MS-13 — target kids for forced recruitment, usually in their early teenage years, but sometimes as young as kindergarten. They also forcibly recruit girls as "girlfriends," a euphemistic term for a non-consensual relationship that involves rape by one or more gang members."

Answer 22

NO!!!

Answer 23

The Supreme Court ruled correctly on this a long time ago. Give it up already.

Answer 24

Even rape should be considered further...I was raped and kept the baby (very hard decision to make) and he's an amazing beautiful kid with a heart of gold. He is still my son and I can't imagine my life without him.

Answer 25

if my mom didn't care for me, i would choose to get aborted.

Answer 26

you'll just have a lot of women who lie to get past the little accident that happened when they were just wanting a little. my daughter was drugged and raped by at least 4 guys at a rave when she was 18. I wasn't pro choice until then. if she had been forced to explain why she needed the abortion, im not sure she would have gone through with it.....

Answer 27

They always considered abortion in cases of incest and rape. Before abortion on demand became legal. Now they do it if you got pregnant in May and you wanted to get pregnant in June instead.

We have probably killed all the wrong people. Like the person who would have ended Cancer. Or the person who would have brought world peace. Or the person who would have ended world hunger. We could have killed many great people by now.

Answer 28

Likewise we've probably prevented a bunch of rapists, dictators, among others from wrecking havoc. A higher abortion rate correlates with a lower crime rate.

Answer 29

Women don't need men 2 be happy..... rlli ppl.

Answer 30

Stop funding Planned Parenthood.

Answer 31

Women must be allowed to manage their own bodies. I support a woman's right to choose.

Answer 32

Boy have you been brainwashed. It may take two to cause a pregnancy but it only takes one to get an abortion even if the man wants the baby. You liberals are the control freaks and you couldn't care less about the rights of others or even a persons right to live. I don't know anyone that is "anti-abortion", however, I do know a lot of people that are pro-life and you know what? Not one of those pro-life people is a liberal fanatic.

You liberal idiots think that everything that anyone does is about control because everything that you do IS about control. You have no regard to human life what-so-ever.

You have such a distorted view on Central America. You assume that they are going back to be killed because you believe all of the lies that this administration and the main stream media throws at you. Those children didn't come here so that they wouldn't be killed. They came here for free food, housing, education and government grants.

You have soaked it all in kook line and sinker. I feel sorry for you.

Answer 33

Federal Law allows it so it is legal. So as a individual right people can moan and groan all they want but that changes nothing.

Answer 34

Abortion is a moral and just choice. Life is horrible and it would have been better never to have been born. We have a moral duty to abort all embryos early-term before they come into existence and experience the horrors of an earthly life.

"Each one of us was harmed by being brought into existence. That harm is not negligible, because the quality of even the best lives is very bad - and considerably worse than most people recognize it to be. Although it is obviously too late to prevent our own existence, it is not too late to prevent the existence of future possible people. Creating new people is thus morally problematic." - David Benatar; Better Never to Have Been: The Harm of Coming into Existence.

I resent my mother for not aborting me. I would never have had to deal with the pain and suffering of life had she done so.

Answer 35

Even if its true, which I doubt because CNS news is a conservative news organization and we have seen several studies that show that cons lie or tell half truths up to 80% of the time, so what. Women have always sought abortions for unwanted pregnancies whether legal or not. No reasonable person wants to force women to go back to the days of clotheshanger abortions.

Answer 36

You are absolutely RIGHT!

Answer 37

To say a person is allowed to have an abortion if she was raped/had incest relations is problematic. It assumes every victim of rape can and is able to come forward about it and that her allegations are believed. This mode of thinking also insinuates that a child conceived due to rape or incest does not deserve a chance in the world, or his/her life does not matter--that they are somehow lower than a child conceived outside of those circumstances.


I do believe some people abuse the option to have an abortion. But I believe banning it and making hypocritical exceptions would cause different problems and likely humiliate women who were victimized.

Answer 38

It's amazing to me how stupid women are. For some reason they don't know what causes pregnancies and have no clue how to stop it. Don't give me this nonsense that a man also has a responsibly for birth control. When a man also has a say about abortion then I will listen to your arguments.

I dare say that pro abortionists have never seen an aborted "fetus" be born alive and therefore is a breathing human being, then this person is murdered because some selfish stupid women has no idea that there is the option of adoption.

There are even some now that are calling for eliminating children up to the age of five if they are not physically or mentally as good as the parents would like.

Sick people love to kill.

Answer 39

Its amazing to me how many men want to control women. That's what its all about, control. And it takes 2 to cause a pregnancy. Further, the same people who are anti-abortion favor sending Central American children back to be killed. So what's the real point of being anti-abortion? Its obviously not about children.

Answer 40

The same jackasses that complain about abortion also complain about welfare that feeds children. I don't hear them getting on the band wagon of the 14 million going hungry and 44 million in poverty, and what I really don't hear from these experts is the movement to stop child abuse in America. There are 3.4 million children (reported) abused per year or one about every ten seconds, with 4-7 dying per day. Have you ever seen anyone on here screaming about it? No you will hear them talk about a mistreated dog, but not a damn thing about a epidemic of child abuse.

Answer 41

There are enough unwanted children in this world, let people decide if they want the baby or not.
