Abortion should be illegal.

Aaronyero's Pro response Response to the fetus not being alive: If it's able to be moving by itself then clearly without a doubt it's alive. But let's say it's not alive, let's just say that. It would have still grow into a child and then a adult. At the point it would alive. Think about it this way, there is a seed that you can turn into sword. When it's just a seed it's not a weapon, nor is it a tool. But then when you plant it and it grows it becomes a sword. Response to Contention #1: Good response, but we should teach the women that by doing so they would be killing a life or a seed that will grow into a life. If they want to end a life or again a seed that will grow into a life by going into the black market and getting a abortion then they are going to take that risk. Also black markets are already at their highest because of drugs. If we were to want to lower it we should make all drugs legal, bath salt included. " 13% of pregnancy-related deaths worldwide are related to complications of unsafe abortion", well the person is trying to end a life, but it's horrible of them to die. But because of that less people would even try abortion because of threat of death, so both people live. If what we are taught from a young age or what society teaches us affect us really deep( even to a point where people will kill themselves because of " dishonored" or stuff like that) then I don't see why we couldn't convince humans when they are younger that abortion is wrong. Also black market doesn't rely on abortion, that is what they would least profit from ( even if we were to make abortion illegal) the black market wouldn't collapse, it mostly relies on drugs( but I will give you a free pass, because it has nothing to do with the argument). My point is that we should teach them( the female children) to stay away from abortion and tell them how it's horrible. Now you could say " what about drugs" well drugs are different, people do drugs because they are depressed or peer pressure from friends. I don't see how would this apply with abortion. Another thing, a person will only become depressed they don't get a abortion if we make not having a abortion a horrible thing. Response to contention #2- I like what Sarah Wedding ton said, but it's true it will disrupt the body. But only for that time, but her education and the rest of her life? There is something called adoption . http://www.wikihow.com... . I don't know a lot, but as far as I am concerned the birth mother can choose to put the child up for adoption. Therefore saving a life and not having her to stop her education. Also about disrupting the body, most woman that get pregnant have to go through pain so it's not only rape victims or other things. " Abortion being illegal takes away gender equality from women", I think you used wrong set of words, males don't have to go through pregnancy, so there isn't really any equality to begin with( going to give you a other free pass) I think you mean it would take away their rights. I guess you could say that, but to protect the life or possibility of a life just so you can feel better isn't a good thing. We limit some rights to protect everyone, we limit freedom of speech to stop people from threatening. Conclusion: Now that we went through that I have a important question for the people reading this which is more important? The safety of women's rights to have a abortion or to allow a seed to grow into a human being, you can decide.
