Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro choice

So are you saying that because someone is not responsible to raise a child, we should kill that child? A human being with life? We keep thinking about the body of the mother but let us also think about the body of the unborn. So for every woman that is not ready, we should kill the child because of the foolishness of their actions? You are a human being and let us put it this way, would you want to pay for the mistake of someone whilst you are innocent?

What puzzles me is the fact that a mother can have an abortion but if someone else kills the mother and the child dies in her, then that person can be slapped with a charge of double homicide.

Exactly i know why i made that statement. If the fetus does not have life then why does the state and the federal government institutes a charge of double homicide if the fetus dies through the death of the mother because according to those supporting abortion the fetus does not have life. Are the laws therefore wrong?

Really check up back on the responses list and furthermore didn't you say there is no life in the fetus so why don't you trying answering why is there a double homicide charge there for the death of the fetus and the mother? So you are saying you asked this question so are a profile or prochoice because that question is a pro life question.

I am really against abortion. I know that most of the abortions are cause by the teens because they arent prepared to raise a child. First of all i dont think thats a good reason to kill a baby. There are always other options not just that. I come from a family of 10 people and my mom raised us all by her self aborting never crossed her head. So what im basecly trying to say is that aborting is not a way to solve things so i think it should just be illegal.

I would like to tell the situation of abortion in Central Asia, I live in Almaty, Kazakhstan and we have very bad stereotypes. In central Asia it is an extremely shame to have a child without getting married and for that reasons very young and naive girls make abortion because of parents, relative and society. Kazakhstan, like other Central Asian countries, dedicates considerable attention and funds to family planning. Girls and boys should get an education about sex and birth control options. In Central Asia countries we have stereotypes that family planning is about having fewer children but actually it means healthier family.In conclusion, in order to have healthier family government, schools and parents should work out a program that will decrease the quantity of abortion among young girls.

That's a good suggestion. A lot of pregnancies come about because girls don't know how likely it is they'll become pregnant if they are sexually active without birth control. About 85% of sex had without birth control results in conception.

Side: Pro Life

Did you know that if your parents had decided to abort you, you wouldn't be here right now? Abortion should definitely be made illegal. The fetus isn't just a bunch of tissues. With the technology we have, you can look closely and see the baby moving around. Abortion also has the probability of resulting in cancer.

Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro choice

Most abortions that occur are before it is even a foetus. The second most likely stage aborted is that in which the foetus is barely developed, barely has a brain and only might have a heart.The figures are roughly 50% and 30% respectively.I support abortion because we need mothers who want their child and are prepared to raise it well. What we do NOT need are unprepared, overworked mothers giving their babies to an already flooded adoption market, or attempting to raise a child that gets less than optimal care because the mother can't be there for him.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

Well yeah you are right but read up on the case which The U.S Supreme Court ruled that life begins at conception. I think that is wrong in the whole to take a life. How many of us would even be here today if our parents had chosen abortion for us regardless of poverty or unpreparedness.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?

Well yeah you are right but read up on the case which The U.S Supreme Court ruled that life begins at conception.Life does not mean "a life" as in a person worthy of human rights.I think that is wrong in the whole to take a life.Don't scratch yourself then, you kill life in the form of skin cells.How many of us would even be here today if our parents had chosen abortion for us regardless of poverty or unpreparedness.A lot fewer, and we'd have less poverty, slums, crime and overpopulation if people aborted rather than raise a child unprepared.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

Really? Give me one reason why? So are you implying that when you were in the womb of your mother you were unworthy of human rights? We are talking about the "life of a developing human being for your information". Why don't you save me some time and read up on that historic case i made reference to? For your information again we are talking about the cells of the sperm and zygote which when fuse brings about the reproduction of a developing human being. Furthermore scientifically the fetus is referred to as a human organism. Define the term organism for me?That statement you made is full of arrogance and wrongful judgment. Many of my friends who were born out of poverty or unpreparedness are now successful lawyers, doctors, singers etc? Would you say that they should have been killed as a child too. That does not make any sense at all.

Really? Give me one reason why? So are you implying that when you were in the womb of your mother you were unworthy of human rights? We are talking about the "life of a developing human being for your information".Life is not "a life" intrinsically because it has no proper brain. A mass of cells knows nothing.Now that I was born, I earned human rights.Why give an unintelligent mass of tissues or cells human rights?Why don't you save me some time and read up on that historic case i made reference to?I don't care about it. The court has little relevance to reality. If it was a scientific journal, I would care.For your information again we are talking about the cells of the sperm and zygote which when fuse brings about the reproduction of a developing human being. Furthermore scientifically the fetus is referred to as a human organism. Define the term organism for me?It doesn't matter if the tissue is human. When you donate a kidney, is that kidney "a life" or just "life" Hmm? A foetus isn't self-aware.Organism is the most inclusive term for life.That statement you made is full of arrogance and wrongful judgment. Many of my friends who were born out of poverty or unpreparedness are now successful lawyers, doctors, singers etc? Would you say that they should have been killed as a child too. That does not make any sense at all.What I said was a rational statement. I still support it no matter how you try to appeal to my emotions.The simple fact is that abortion culls unwanted offspring from the population. A child should be wanted, and prepared for.Go ahead. Try to make an argument that an unwanted child or a child raised as a burden are both GOOD things for society.

But it is growing into a human being? Am i right or wrong? You should understand that these cells are different from the other cells within our body. Cells that are developing with it's own genetic uniqueness and has its own DNA and blood type. Then why do the laws protects that very mass of cells by recognizing the homicide of a fetus as a separate offense if it is unworthy of human rights according to you?Well that case i am referring to has a lot to do with this debate because it is a dispute on whether or not life begins at conception and it is a scientific controversy which resulted in the court ruling that life begins at conception after hearing arguments from both sides. So does a person who has Alzheimer is also not self aware which is why they are described as being in the baby stage? Well let us consider adoption instead of abortion and stop making it seem as if abortion is the only way out. Who is responsible for bringing them into existence? Did they asked to be brought into existence or to be related?

You got frustrated with Avesked (however his name spelled) and banned him. That is just like abortions. Your were unprepared for Avesked intelligent rebuttals, and aborted him. This is just like abortion, but slightly worse, because Avesked is a human and can tell whats going on. A fetus is neither human (yet), nor can tell whats going on. I can't wait till I get banned.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

I did not intentionally banned him. Sorry about that. I dont ban people unless you start name calling and shift from public argument to personal argument. I mistook his name for the guy i wanted to ban. Why would i want to ban people that would give their opinions but anyway lets focus on your argument now.Oh i was unprepared? Maybe you should have a look at our arguments and if i was unprepared for him, then how come i add him as my ally? I am not going to repeat myself because like i told aveske if the fetus is not a human then what is it? And doctors and the U.S Supreme Court has ruled that the fetus has life. I have proof of this. Lastly aveske referred to the fetus as a human organism. The deeper scientific meaning of the word organism refers to life so he himself referred to the fetus as human life.And lastly if you read my arguments you would know that i debated this topic 10 times already and you would have learnt i am a student in criminal law.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

oh and further more, all my arguments i had proof for aveske and if his arguments were indeed intelligent, then how come i had evidence to support my claim and i brought up every important point that he avoided?And i am never unprepared because i am a student in criminal law again. These debates are nothing new for me. One thing i hate on here though is people give all sorts of opinions without evidence and expect them to be true.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

Oh and one more thing. If you say that organism refers to life then a human organism referred to as a fetus by doctors and also in the legal field will mean in other words human life? right?? because human organism (life according to you) can also be referred to as human life?
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

First of all, don't argue about something you can't even spell correctly. Second, abortion is completely wrong whether or not it is economically beneficial to an adoption market. Third, if adoption is truly a market, then the correct name is human trafficking, and you mean to tell me abortion is fixing that? Please. Most abortions occur in high school teenagers, so an overworked mother is out of the question for the most part. I am so adamant about this because my mother had two abortions before my birth. I am now a junior in high school with a 3.48 GPA. Abortion is supposed to fix that?
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro choice

Ever think that it is because your mother had 2 abortions before you that you are doing well now? It is just as hypothetical to assume that those 2 abortions were just little yous that got denied a chance as it is to assume that those 2 abortions occurred at a time when your mother wasn't ready and when she was ready she did have you and you are being successful.Hopefully people here aren't against adoption - it is one of the few options for mothers who can and do go through with a pregnancy even when the mother and or father cannot support the child.One other thing to mention - while you may feel strongly that one choice is better than the other - making something legal or illegal should meet a different test; for example - if a woman is 5 months pregnant and finds out she needs chemotherapy - should the government force her to not get the treatment and risk killing herself and the child all at once? Government cannot imagine every potential abortion scenario and in a free country is not the one that should make those decisions.Keep up the good work.

Thank you very much for that point you made. I was also born out of child pregnancy and poverty. Today i am a student in pre law with a G.P.A of 4.0 and also a straight A student. Should i have been aborted i would have been robbed of my life and accomplishments.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

If your mother thought that was best, then yes. Those accomplishments had not happened yet, and did not exist. Anyone can accomplish something good, but there is a much smaller chance being born into poverty.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro choice

Thank you for making that point. So infact we don't know what accomplishments these unborn can make but yet we want to abort them? What do you mean there is a much smaller chamce of being born into poverty? Do you read about poverty worldwide? Do you study world history or facts? Read up on thirdworld countries and poverty and pregnancy worldwide. Also aveske himself told me i have potential to be a great debater so i don't need to explain myself to you. Ask him yourself.

First of all, don't argue about something you can't even spell correctly.I try to give people a little leeway on this site unless their grammar is just ostentatiously bad or makes what they are saying ambiguous, etc.Otherwise, you end up calling someone out for spelling foetus/fetus in a perfectly acceptable way even if it is not the way you are used to.

"Most abortions that occur are before it is even a foetus. The second most likely stage aborted is that in which the foetus is barely developed, barely has a brain and only might have a heart."So maybe this is true. But these stats are completely irrelevant. Does killing someone who is less developed make it right, or justify it? Would you kill a ten year old and say "he isn't an adult yet. He's not developed." You couldn't get away with that alibi in any court system of today.You also say that you don't want an overflooded adoption market. According to the National Committee for Adoption, over 1.5 million couples want a child to adopt in the US. Every time a couple adopts, there are another 40 in line.It is not our decision to end a life. It is God's, and unborn babies are human persons. What if you were aborted?

Does killing someone who is less developed make it right, or justify it?I hold the position that any action taken against an entity incapable of perceiving negative stimulus is amoral.It is not our decision to end a life. It is God'sUntil "God" has been demonstrated to manifest in reality, this isn't a compelling argument.What if you were aborted?I wouldn't have known and would have been incapable of caring.

Here again you are making an assumption, I never said any such thing. But I find it sad that you enjoy the taste of orphan meat.See, when someone fabricates a position that you don't hold, it does nothing to progress the discussion. For the record my position of embryos as a living person is based on your definition of "living person".
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro choice

If you admit that abortion is EVER warranted. Then it doesn't make sense to make it illegal.I think a good angle for reducing unnecessary abortions, could be to legislate the rights the father obtains during the act of consensual sex.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro choice

No it should not. I am pro-choice. It's the woman's decision and it's not anyone's business what she should do with her body. The father shouldn't have a say because it's not their body. If a woman wants an abortion, let her have one.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

Really? Then if it's about a woman's right to control her own body, then why is it that the laws forbid her from controlling her own body when it comes to prostitution or the use of drugs? How come you guys are saying that a woman should have her own right to control her body but yet the laws prohibits us from committing suicide, the use of drugs or even prostitution? Doesn't these have to do with everybody's right to control their own body too?
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro choice

actually prostitution isn't illegal at the federal level (with some small exceptions ref) and there aren't any federal or state laws left that ban suicide ref and many libertarians and liberals would want some of the same principles to apply to drugs and euthanasia (in case that is what you really meant by suicide).PS suicide can only be illegal if you don't succeed. ;)
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

Suicide is not banned but at the same time, the state has every right to keep a person in custody if there is a chance that the person will hurt himself or there is a strong likelihood that the person is at risk of committing suicide. Let us not concentrate on the federal level as we are concentrating on state levels. The duty of the federal level is to prosecute and regulate laws that are in the best interest in the people of America not just a specific state. In other words, the federal government cannot and will not intrude upon the laws of a state. Prostitution and suicide are minor issues for them when the security of their country is at stake.

Really then if the father should not have a say then why when the child is born the father has to take the expenses of the child?
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro choice

The father would have some say after the child is born (whether to give the child up for adoption, etc.), but the physical relationship during pregnancy is unique to the mother and fetus.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

I think the father should have a say if he's wiling to raise the kid on his own, but only the mother and the father should have a say in it.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?

wouldn't that be a pro-choice opinion?
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: Pro Life

I think the opinion you present is the crux of the debate. If it is the woman's body, then she has the choice. If its another person, then that person has the right to life. If it's not quite a person (no brain and such) but isn't quite just a part of the woman (it will be a person if it's born) then who has a right to decide? I'd say that it has a right to life because it would be a person if it did. Because even if its not a person, it can become one if you just don't destroy it.

Just...grow up.Perhaps you are against abortion and it isn't a good thing for you, but it's just childish to demand that everyone conforms to your silly preferences.
Debate: Should abortion be made illegal?
Side: pro life

Why don't you grow up? Do you think abortion is going to make people more responsible. I am not just out here throwing stuff because i want to. I am here because i believe it is wrong. Why don't you read up on Roe Vs. Wade. Do you want to know how abortion came into effect? Jane Roe presented to the Supreme Court that she was raped and the Supreme Court agree with her to have an abortion. It so turned out that she was never raped but she had consensual sex. Now she is against abortion. That is the story that created the legalization of abortion.This is debating not about silly preferences. For you it is but not me. If it was would it be a national controversy? I don't even see a proper reason for your rebuttal except that it is childish. Would you say that to a District Attorney that he is childish because of what he believes in too?
