If our forefathers ever thougth legalized abortion would be an issue they would have drafted laws against it... and everyone knows it.
With that said;
Americans have the wherewithal to deny someone an abortion. We are a land of Laws. We can most certainly devise a law denying women the right to an abortion.
What you fail to see is Abortion is the Lazy Woman’s way of birth control. ........... And anything less in this country, in this day and age, comes from laziness and ignorance. Shame on us for being so accepting. |
1 Legalised against it - In UK / Australia, for a long time, abortion was "illegal" and the legislation was repealed (I presume parallel legislation also applied in USA).
2 Lazy & Ignorant - The best forms of contraception is not 100 % reliable and the voodoo systems promoted by the Roman Catholic Church even less reliable (although, as a non-RC I find it bizarre that any church should dare presume to dictate what a couple do in the privacy of their own bedroom)
What another person determines to do with their body does not effect me and thus I should not have any right to prevent what that person does. I respect that persons rights to decide how their body will be used. There is no shame in "Accepting" and respecting other peoples decisions when we would choose a different decision for ourself, it is this Tolerance which makes democracy work.
