Abortion is wrong, that little girl or boy that was KILLED will never have their first date, never be prom king or queen, never be the top mathlete or captain of the basketball team. Abortion is murder and it needs to stop! Something needs to be done, quick. This can't keep happening.

My Commentary on Abortion
Here are ten reasons and proof on why abortion is wrong. All life on Earth was created by almighty God above, and it is therefore morally wrong to deprive an unborn child of its God given right to one day serve in our armed forces and kill hundreds of Muslims. Even though it may not be fully formed, a fetus in the second trimester is still able to feel pain. Why do you think a baby starts kicking it’s mom’s stomach whenever the father makes stupid noises at it? That’s right – you heard correctly! ABORTION IS MURDER! And I’ll bet if you asked an unborn fetus whether he fancies the idea of being murdered, it would tell you to at least wait until it was old enough to fight back. As I mentioned earlier, all life on Earth was created by almighty God above, and so it follows that only He can take it away. No one – and I mean no one – is an exception to this rule. Except maybe executioners on death row. As unbelievable as this may sound, you’re hard earned taxes go toward keeping abortion clinics running. Think about that for a moment: your taxes, which could instead be distributed to worthwhile programs such as the NRA or Fox Hunters of America, are being pumped into facilities which condone taking life. We’ve all heard the argument that “abortion is justified in cases where the mother has been raped”. Frankly I have to disagree with this. I mean, isn’t it convenient, in these cases, that the father’s rights are completely ignored? I just cannot understand people who argue that “abortion is justified in cases where the baby was conceived through incest”. Why on Earth did you have sex with your dad in the first place? Your mom is way hotter. Just because your baby is going to be born with spina bifida does not mean you can terminate him before he is born. You have to be patient, loving and compassionate, and if after 6 years the poor kid is still suffering, have him terminated then. If a mother is too mentally unstable to have a kid then she was probably unable to have consented to sex in the first place, thus meaning she was raped. This brings me very neatly onto my 6th point. Why am I pointing out that ABORTION is an anagram of IRON BOAT? Because, like abortions, iron boats are baaaaaad! They sink straight to the bottom, killing everyone on board. Much like abortive mothers do. There’s your proof! Blessed are the barren, and the womb that never bare, and the paps which never gave suck.”–Luke 23:29In 1984 President Reagan said: “When the lives of the unborn are snuffed out, they often feel pain, pain that is long and agonizing.” If you think someone doesn’t have a chance, and you don’t even give them the opportunity to take that chance, then how do you know that they won’t make a difference if you don’t give them the choice. Abortions kill millions of innocent babies yearly, are inhumane, and go against the Bible. In 54 countries (61% of the world) abortions are legal. 55% of abortions are from women younger than 26, and 21% are under the age of 18. The statistics of abortions are shocking. In the Revolutionary War, Civil War, World War I, World War II, Korean War, and Vietnam, there were a total of 1,110,563. But since 1973, a little over 35,000,000 have been aborted. That’s 35 million babies who will never experience life or have the chance to make a difference. Today an average of 1,328,000 babies are aborted annually, car accident take only around 40,000 a year. 88% of abortions happen the first 6-12 weeks of pregnancy, and 43% of all women will have an abortion by the age of 45, that’s almost half.

Abortion should be allowed legally without being looked down upon. For cases of rape and incest, adoption could be an answer. However, with rape, who on earth would want to wake up with something growing in them as a daily reminder to the trauma that the mother was forced to endure. With incest, the chances of the child being deformed are greatly increased, whether physically or emotionally deformed. With either of those circumstances and adoption being an option, you run the risk of that child never being adopted, never having a true home, and never feeling wanted or loved. For those reasons, I think abortion should be allowed. Only up to a certain point- nine weeks should be the cut off. Nine weeks is when the mass of cells actually forms a fetus; partial birth abortions should not be allowed.

SHMAJAY- The pictures showing the procedure are factual, not old or outdated, however there is yet another method for partial birth abortion called Dilation and extraction in which the fetus is basically quartered.. Cut into about six pieces, legs and arms, torso, than the head is the last to be removed. Is that recent enough for you? You should go to the National Right to Life’s website. ANYONE who performs any of these so-called procedures or has had one is pure evil as far as I’m concerned and I would hold them on a scale of evil equivalent to that of Jeffery Dahmer. Worse even because these victims are completely defenseless.

uh, well, yes, um, you know, uh Obama does not believe in the second amendment and we’ve already seen what the Left thinks of the First Amendment. And of course unborn babies have no rights.

But no doubt some rights are sacred to them: The right to be a degenerate, and to attack others who choose not to live that way for whatever reason is the first one that comes to mind.

The images above are in fact old and outdated, the partial birth system is no longer in use. I do stand by the Pro-life and will stand up for it, but its the extremely biased pics that this one that give the pro-life a bad name. The right to pro-choice is a farce because the women who do get these abortions took the risk of having unprotected sex, and not taking responsibility for their actions. Unless the mothers life is at risk or its rape it should be illegal

Since when is DC NOT the nation’s most dangerous city? It has only gotten SUBSTANTIALLY worse since the passage of the gun bill, not better. Criminals and Democrats love unarmed victims.
