Before you start gathering up the town and arming yourself with pitchforks and torches, let me explain myself.
Women have to the right to choose to make their partner wear a condom. They can choose to take birth control. Hell, how about this one, they even choose to NOT have sex (gasp!). The point is, women have all sorts of preventative ways to not have a kid thanks to the technology in this country. One of those technologies should never be abortion. Just stop for a second, espcecially women, and think of how many ways you can think of to avoid getting pregnant. It is quite staggering of all the things there, you just never stop to think about it.
There are alot of women who can't have kids for a plethora of medical reasons. By aborting a baby, not only are you taking away the chance for a person to come into this world and be something special, but you are insulting women who struggle everyday to have a kid. I know there a programs to help pregnant women who do not want their kids find a woman who can't have kids and really want one. So instead of killing a baby, why not do some good in this world and help an unfortunate woman out? At the very least, your irresponsibilty would help bring a lifetime of joy to someone.
I know, i know, alot of people disagree with birth control and everything else. All i have to say is, this is no longer 1920. Times have changed for better or for worse. We have to be tolerant of people. I am Catholic, how good of a person would i be if i just went around spitting on other religions because they dont believe in everything i did? I very bad person, that's the answer. Tolerancy does have its limits, though. Lets just say, abortion. Acts like that are at the very least unaccepable.
In conclusion, women, you do have a right to choose, but your choice should be to be responsible. Mistakes are mistakes and we all learn from them. Why would you take a life for your mistakes? I hope to be an elected official one day, and when that day comes, i want to set up an extensive program to help bring abortion down and set up more kids with mothers who cant have kids. We save a life and bring joy to another life. It is a win-win for us all.
