I do not believe anybody is Pro Abortion. Unwanted pregnancies, ectopic pregnancies, pregnancies due to rape or incest, pregnancies where the fetus is horribly deformed all are tragedies. But there is nothing more personal and up to the individual than when to carry a baby to term. No government agency should be in the business of invading every woman’s womb and telling here what she can and cannot do with a fetus. Now when the fetus becomes a baby, developed enough to survive outside the womb, I think abortion should be illegal except in cases where it is the only way to save the mother’s life.
If the government wants to reduce the number of abortions, which it should want to do, then do it by funding effective sex education for young people. Explain to them the lifelong consequences of unwanted pregnancy and of having children when you haven’t yet gotten your own life together to the point you can properly care for them. Explain that there is no form of birth control that is 100% effective except not having intercourse. Explain to young boys the horror of rape, and the agonizing decision it leaves the victim facing should she become pregnant. Put money into finding ways to reduce the rape rate, and to keep repeat offenders behind bars for life. Fund medical research to find ways of preventing debilitating deformities before they ever happen. None of us like abortion, and these are ways we could make it necessary far less often.
