Children being way too young to give birth, women who are not financially stable enough to have a child, women who are on drugs and will have a disabled child do to drug use, women and children who were raped and became pregnant, should all have the option to have an abortion.
@9FF5T972yrs2Y
I think a woman has a right to abortion because what if she was raped or a victim of abuse if I was a victim and wanted an abortion I would want to be able to. And if the women got pregnant and felt like she wasn’t fit to be a mother or couldn’t afford it show be able without a problem should get an abortion
@9FDNDS8Conservative2yrs2Y
If you physically or mentally cannot take care or have a child you should have as many options as possible.
@9FCB7V62yrs2Y
How is it correct that we place a higher punishment on the victim of assault than the person committing the crime? Why is a not-yet-complete life more important than one that is being lived? If it is such a big issue that this life is being aborted, place the barriers on the men who can procreate many, many more times in a given time period than the women.
There is no valid argument opposing abortion. Abortion needs to always be accessible regardless of the reason or circumstance, and any reason for not wanting to continue the pregnancy is sufficient without argument. "Would you rather have safe, ethical, medically performed abortions, or ban them and end up with traumatized teens overdosing or cutting into their own uterus to try to abort the fetus on their own?"
Rape victims and young girls are more negatively effected by giving birth than positively. Why should somebody else be in charge of your own body? If wanted, girls and women should be able to have abortions to their liking and it shouldn't be anyone's business, especially not a mans or a male politicians
Pro choice is the fair one because every person should be able to control there life and if they were a rape victim the chill could be triggering or even not healthy and if it’s very unhealthy it could not only die but kill the mother
@9F9HJRD2yrs2Y
God gave us free will and it is very ignorant to take that away from women especially when most of decisions regarding women’s body are made by men.
@9HP53Y61yr1Y
I believe that if the abortion is because of rape its fine but if you just had unprotective activities then they should keep it
@9FDTJXXNew Democratic2yrs2Y
Life quality over life itself, some are not in the proper condition to raise a child, the kid will grow in a not ideal environment. it is terrible for society.
@9FBZP3HNew Democratic2yrs2Y
It’s quite obvious here. A rape victim no matter the age shouldn’t be responsible for something they weren’t given the choice of conceiving.
It’s a woman's and doctors choice only, and that’s that.
@9FBTX3T2yrs2Y
I would ask how somebody making a desicion to have an abortion affects the person saying this, and why do they care? How would you feel if you needed some sort of surgery, but you weren't aloud to?
@9H6CZY41yr1Y
I think victims of rape should have the ability to have an abortion because it was not their fault and they don’t want to live with a child remembering how it happened.
Policies that lean toward the pro-life stance take away the rights of women who genuinely need those services.
@9FH4KHS2yrs2Y
Victims of rape is there choice to do what they do and pro-life is not dicidet by a man it dicidet by a woman
@9FG5HKM2yrs2Y
It is a violation of human rights to force a decision on someone. Also, given the current state of foster care if the mother can’t provide for the child it will not have a positive life. Finally, rape is a crime and victims should not be forced to bear the weight of it.
@9FFP36Q2yrs2Y
You best be prepared to support the mother and child for the next 18 years if you take away their choice.
@9FDCCNN2yrs2Y
children getting raped or single homless mothers who cant afford to give the baby a good life, everyone shoukd have the choice to choose what they do with their own body
@9FDCBYC2yrs2Y
it should be a womens choice no matter what she is the one who has to bare a child for 9 months and have to live with that so if she dosent want to or isnt ready then thats her choice.
@9FCPXVY2yrs2Y
Some people have to suffer because of others' terrible, disgusting, criminal actions, and they have to at least be able to decide for themselves whether or not they wish to deal with the after math of the event.
@9FCC6CV2yrs2Y
Everyone should have the choice of abortion without it Some one could end Up with a baby they Can't care about. people could end up with a baby they did not want or not ready for.

My body, my choice. There is no logical reason to ban or oppose abortions, for anyone, but most especially for victims of rape and incest. Abortions need to be performed by trained Medical Professionals and be safe and accessible regardless of the reason or circumstance. Without it, we see an increase in unsafe, unsupervised abortions that risk the life of not only the fetus but the mother as well. You can never convince me you are Pro-Life if the life of the mother doesn't matter to you. Pro-Life is just another way for people in power to exert control over women and their bodies. Healthcare is a Human right.
@9FFM5Y52yrs2Y
In cases of rape and incest, a woman should 100% have the right to choose whether she wants an abortion or not. It is important to realize that cases of rape and incest are very traumatic experiences, and forcing someone to go through with a pregnancy happening from such a situation can just add on to their suffering even more. You should consider the mental health of the survivor, and not just whether or not the child will live or not. Not letting a woman access to an abortion in situations like these can also lead to lead to legal problems, which may require victims to go through a long pro… Read more
@9FFH58D2yrs2Y
The trauma endured from victims of rape and incest deserve a choice on what they should do with their OWN bodies.
@9FFC6GG2yrs2Y
You haven’t experienced what they have, and having a product of trauma
in your body for nine months can be severely traumatic. If you’re pro life and want to give children a chance, promote more adoption and the education and healthcare of children, instead of controlling other peoples’ bodies. These fetuses aren’t even fully developed, and they don’t think or feel anything. It would be humane to let people get abortions.
@9F7VL4K2yrs2Y
You don’t have to get an abortion if you don’t want, but you can’t tell someone else not to. It’s not your body, it’s not your choice.
@9FFZJJS2yrs2Y
I think that abortion for everyone should be legal as it is your body and you get to decide what you do with it. No one else should be able to decide if you can get an abortion or not.
@9F7SYL7New Democratic2yrs2Y
i believe that pro life is not OK because you are giving the mother who is carrying their own child right to decide to abort her child or keep it.I feel no matte the person you yourself should have the right to make your own decision based on what is going on and how far/old you are.
@9MKCM4B 11mos11MO
The argument that opposing abortion, especially in situations involving rape and incest, ignores the suffering and injustice endured by those who have survived these horrible crimes is a strong refutation of this viewpoint. It is inconsiderate to force victims of rape or incest to bear a pregnancy to term since it compromises their physical, mental, and emotional health. Refusing survivors' access to abortions perpetuates damage and undermines their basic rights to autonomy and bodily integrity.
The fact that life begins at conception is attested to in the entirety of the body of scientific evidence. The words fetus and embryo are Latin for little one, child, or offspring. Any other standards beyond conception used would justify genocide of people who are already born; whether it is through denial that there is life in the womb or justification on the grounds of "compassion" to prevent them suffering in poverty, neglect, illness, etc.
Banning abortion causes more death and harm through unsafe abortions, children raised in neglect, and mothers dying through child birth and in losing autonomy and control over their own bodies and remainder of their lives as a result
@9F5FC8S2yrs2Y
There is no valid or compelling argument opposing abortion. Abortion needs to always be accessible regardless of the reason or circumstance. Any reason for not wanting to continue the pregnancy is sufficient without argument. The uptick in unsafe illegal abortions concerns me less than the impact of children born into unstable situations on society as they grow older.
