I have read many, many, many arguments for and against abortion. I have even read one arguing against arguing about abortion. But I have yet to find many arguments concerning the mentality that pro-choice doesn't always mean "killing babies" or "removing superfluous tissue". In fact it means you don't have to do anything. Have that teenage pregnancy, have the baby with a genetic disease who will die in two days anyway with extreme pain in suffering, after it kills its mother. Have the child conceived of a rape, the one the mother will end up hating because it remind her of her misfortune.
The point of "pro-choice" is that you do not have to get an abortion or just have the baby. You can choose what to do with your own body and not have it dictated to you. Roe v. Wade was the lifesaver for all those who value personal freedom as well as a right to privacy.
Despite all the drama and hoopla that surrounds abortion, it is a simply procedure that is not dangerous. it is invasive which s why it us considered to be surgery. If one removes the religious aspects of abortion the issue becomes much more clearer, but sadly it is impossible.
Pro-choice is choice. The ability to pick you path and that of you genetic material. You have the right to choose. It's covered in the 9th and 10th Amendments. Just because it's not specifically stated, doesn't mean it does not exist. And, if it exists it reserved to you, the federal government has no power over what is nt expressly given to them.
You are so right. -E-
Just to add- the fourth amendment can be included as well. Nice blog.
That's a good point... I haven't even considered that one. Thanks!
