Poll: Abortion- What's your position and why?

[shufflemonkey16]

I've heard of three different positions on abortion.

1. It is a woman's right to choose whether she wants to have an abortion or not, and there should be no laws inhibiting or prohibiting that choice. (pro choice)

2. It isn't a woman's right to abort her baby, but making abortion illegal would not get rid of abortion. Most likely black-market abortions that would not be regulated by the FDA or anything else would become available and could be threatening to the health of pregnant women trying to get an abortion from them, thus abortion should be kept legal. (somewhere in between)

3. It isn't a woman's right to abort her baby, thus abortion should be made illegal. A woman with an unplanned pregnancy should give the baby up for adoption or otherwise find some way to raise the child. (pro life)

I suppose there could be other philosophies. But if you subscribe to any position on abortion, give your input in the poll and discuss your beliefs.

I am pro choice.

Tough for me to say. It's more of a "Different Case, Different Stance" deal for me.

For instance: A woman is raped. Does she not have the right to abort what wasn't hers to begin with?

On the other hand: A promiscuous woman sleeps around alot, and gets pregnant. For being careless, I don't feel a fetus has the right to die.

What's with all the abortion threads recently?

OT: It's up to the parents to decide. Nobody should enforce a decision upon them.

An abortion is not a bad thing, the woman could be in any of numerous circumstances that make it hard to deal with the child, keep it alive after birth, or give it someone in which case an abortion could keep the woman out of the poor house.

Also, we as a species are over populated. HUGELY so. If everyone had babies, we would run out of space and resources.

Its up to the parents, everyone else should fuck off.

if i want a baby, then so be it, if i dont, then so be it,why isnt it that simple? Free world my ass.

 

[NotAPie]

Its up to the woman, its not bad and its not good but I can careless.

 

[Neonbob]

This will not turn out well.

I believe Abortion should be open for all, as I think a Fetus isn't a living thing.

Wouldn't want to leave you disappointed...

I'm of the opinion that the woman gets to chose under most circumstances.
If she's had ten in the past year?
Forget it.

A lot of people have that position, but I don't think it works as far as making abortion laws. If it becomes legal to have an abortion only if you're raped, there's going to be a LOT of court cases with pregnant women claiming they were raped.

I'm pro-choice. I have to say, I would rather know that women are aborting babies in a clean, safe and legal way than putting themselves at risk.

 

[grimsprice]

case to case thing... if a girl is raped by her uncle it should be her choice. and she should take it. but if her boyfriend and her didn't use protection fuckem. case to case thing. which is why it should be a medical procedure in a hospital requiring a legal recomendation from a judge (or some other form of scrutiny).

Sadly, you very well may be right.

 

[Bigeyez]

Pro-Choice. Your reason number 2 fits me pretty well.

That's a big claim to make and would require some pretty supportive evidence.

 

[Jagers1994]

Lol my thoughts exactly on the 2nd option. I believe it should be legal but I also think that abortions are kind of a disturbing concept. I mean having an abortion is preety much legalized murder. Still it is up to the mother to decide what is best for HER and I shouldn't really have any say in it.

 

[Robert632]

fuck morality choices

O.T fuck making abortion illeagal, that's like making tobacco illeagal, it would destroy to much business at this point.

 

[gremily]

Well... I'm Catholic... They way I see it, is that I'm typically skeptical about how those women get pregnant in the first place.

 

[Neonbob]

Ah, the burning is so relaxing.

Even than I think it should be open. Why bring a baby into this world when the parents don't even want it.

Glad to be of help.

And I just like the idea that it would royally screw up their lives.
It helps me sleep at night.
