Why take two lives when you shouldOnly have to take one… Over 75% to 85% of rape victims are against abortion (Reardon 1). Theybelieve it would not have solved anything. Abortion followed by rape islooked at in many different ways, some believe it is the best othersbelieve it ruins lives.
The people aside from the victims look at them as if they are crazywhen they talk about keeping a child from them when they were raped. Victims only know what is best for them. After being sexually assaultedby person, emotions can only be imagined. It is as if their life has ended.
The next thing most victims want to do is take a young un-born child’slife. Some doctors whom a pro-abortion love rape cases because they areemotionally unstable and they do not know what they really want to do(Reardon 1). Other doctors say, “An abortion is not the magical surgery tomake a woman “un-pregnant” or even “un-raped” for that matter. (Reardon 2)”
Women have the rights of their own and a right to choose how to spend 9months of their life. Some feel it is justifiable, whether they are takinganother life or not. Some women, rape victims use it as “if it were arewind button on life.” Some women would fight to their death for therights, and allowing abortions is one of those rights they feel stronglyabout. When a mother gives up her child’s life for a comfortable life ofher own some look at that as unmoral.
Many believe it is wrong. Pro-abortion members go after everyone in everyway they can, such as rape,incest victims, young teens and those with comfortable lifestyles. Womenwho have been raped sometimes think that if they do not abort the baby thenthe rapist will be attached to them for next 9 months of their lives. Thesewomen feel that abortion is a disconnection, immoral (Reardon 1) choice.
Un-like pro-abortion many more rape victims seem to be pro-life. Infact, it is said that nearly 70% of all women believe an abortion is an actof violence against women’s bodies and the un-born child. Who knows whatthis child’s life may have become if it would have been able to livebecause there was some law against abortion.
Even though these childrencome out of, a horrible experience does not mean something wonderful cannotcome out of that child. When you go into an average day at a Preschool andspend time with ten different children, each one of them will have adifferent personality and mind set on life. So what has to say thatchildren you abort would not have views of their own later in life? Manybelieve that the mother owes the birth of the child, to the child andherself as a conclusion of a tragic moment in her lifetime.
Some are pro-life and some are pro-abortion “Will this war ever end…”Nations for years have been fighting over this issue and yet it seems noone can ever be right. What the U.S. has finally done is to let womenchoose. If they feel that, it is necessary to carry out with an abortionfor any reason before the 24-week term. Minors cannot obtain an abortionwithout consent from a legal guardian. (Economist)
The U.S. has oneof loosest laws on abortion compared to England where women are required toobtain to permits from doctors before it is performed. It should be handledthat way. You must have a provable reason to carry out an abortion. Here inthe U.S. people are so caught up in their freedom of this and that, or whatthey are doing to others. It is said that the U.S. may be changing theirways. Clinton quotes, “I want abortion to be sage, legal, and rare.” Somaybe someday the U.S. will allow abortion but only to special cases suchas rape victims or people with mental or physical problems.
Abortion is a continuous battle that many women and congress men andnumerous people all over the world battle over everyday. Is there a rightor a wrong? No, it’s your opinion. The guy next door may not agree, butthere are no laws against saying you have to be pro-abortion or pro-life.
Abortion will probably always be around. No matter how the laws on itchange. This is because there will always be a demand for it in some way oranother. If you have your views on it and influence them on others, themmaybe one day the “war” will be as large. Less lives will be lost on thatday.
