Abortion?

How do you guys feel about abortion, if you got a girl pregnant would you ever consider it? I believe that it's completely wrong, if you're unable to raise the child or do not want it, adoption would be the better decision imo. It's better to have the baby go to a loving family than to be killed off, it's selfish and unfair.

I would never consider abortion. Fuck that. Every woman that gets an abortion is a murderer. That's just my opinion. Don't give me that rape victim bs. A women should never have to kill an innocent life just because she couldn't keep her legs closed. I'm pretty sure women knows that even with condoms and birth control, there is a very small chance of getting pregnant. If a woman gets pregnant unintentionally, she should go to the store, buy some straws, and suck it up because life's a bitch. But seriously, adoption is the better option.

I think people should be allowed to get an abortion if they want to, and the law supports that right. If you have a moral or religious reason for being against it, that's fine with me. However, I have a problem when people resist federal law and attack abortion facilities and subversively make abortions harder to get simply because they disagree with the legality of the practice. If you want the law changed, work towards that by proper means.

Abortions are good. Although, it is killing life. If giving birth is a serious health concern for the woman, then abortion should be available. If the parents can't afford to give the child a decent life, abortion should be available. Adoption isn't great, I know people who have been adopted and they hate it. Imagine knowing your parents didn't want you/couldn't look after you and gave you away... I'd rather not be alive than be adopted.

Or she could buy some Plan-B.

Also, that logic can be applied both ways. Don't like abortion? "[You] should go to the store, buy some straws, and suck it up because life's a bitch."

Snarkiness aside (I apologize if that came off as rude, it just came to mind and I had to type it), what claim does anyone have to forcing a mother to endure pregnancy? Are we so high and mighty that we get to collectively decide the fate of a woman's uterus? How is it that the nature of telling someone to just endure the pregnancy has become akin to that of punishment? When you say that it's their own fault, even though there's a solution to their problem, people are essentially saying "you fucked up, now here's your punishment." Some beautiful thing pregnancy is if it's punishment, aye?

As for abortions being murder... Murder is the intentional, malicious, and premeditated killing of one human being by another. Now I neither agree that the killing of a fetus is done with malice nor do I agree that a fetus is a human being. I think the big difference here is that a fetus is entirely dependent on the mother for its existence and well-being - one person in exclusion of all others. A human being is not. Babies tend to be dependent on their mothers, but they're not exclusively dependent. Someone else can naturally help them out, whereas that is not the case with a fetus. If we're not killing a human being, would you still argue that it's immoral? What if you eat meat? Meat doesn't come from human beings either, yet we're somehow trying to justify not killing a non-human while killing another type of non-human is okay (I eat meat, I'm not a vegan or vegetarian but it is important for me to cover all bases)? No, I don't think abortion is an issue that extends beyond the scope of species and blanket statements about what it means to be human and what it means to murder. I think it's something that should be kept simple and left to the whims and wants of those who it concerns - the exclusive caretakers; the mothers.

So for the judgement and decision of the exclusive caretaker to be ignored in favor of our moral high-horses is just silly to me. We don't have the right to delve into the lives of others just to fulfill our dogmatic impulses. That's bigotry. Abortion is not my choice, and it's not yours either. To me, it's their choice... and that's why I'm pro-choice.

I regret upgrading you, ignorant as fuck.
I agree with you on most parts, but rape is definitely a different situation.

Don't take it personally. I completely understand that rape victims don't deserve to get pregnant, little alone raped, but keep in mind that's it's their child as well. I mean sure they can have an abortion but it's something that will scar them for life. I have a family member that had an abortion and she regrets having it because it constantly haunts her. Shes completely open about it and says if she could go back, she would not abort her child. My bad if I offended you.

You're honestly insane if you think a rape victim would be better off not aborting. It's the rape that would scar them for life not the abortion. Keeping the child would just be a constant reminder of her rape anyways. Also saying "I have a family member that regrets having an abortion" is just anecdotal evidence and doesn't prove anything, I could easily find people who didn't regret having an abortion but you'd probably dismiss it and say she's lying. I understand from you and your families experience that your family members abortion was a mistake but i'd suggest looking into both sides of an argument before picking a side instead of relying on one unique personal experience.

I agree abortion is bad but with your answer, its not always the baby will go to a ''good'' environment or be treated good at all. It could go to a family that also doesnt deserve to have kids. So personally i dont think its a bad option. I think people should only use it as a LAST resort.

See this is the problem with sharing your own opinion. Everybody gets butthurt. I'm not sure if I read the thread right but it said to share your opinions about abortion. I shared mine and everybody is all up on me. Might as well retitle the thread to "why you support abortion" if everybody if going to get mad over a anti abortion opinion.

You're allowed to give opinions, and people are allowed to say how shitty they are, that's how free speech works
