Republicans push for an amendment that would ban abortion; even if the woman is raped

[Candy Kappa]

The condom is not 100% safe, neither is the pill or the spiral. Unexpected pregnancy can occur.

If such a law passes there will be a lot of strange miscarriages or back to the good old coat hanger. No woman should be forced to go though an unwanted pregnancy, especially if she was raped. If she wants to ditch it or keep it, it is her choice.

If abortion is okay, then there is no moral reason against the death penalty.

To quote playwright George Bernard Shaw, you cannot bring someone back if they were executed. You cannot bring someone back after they have spent time in jail either.

Yes but women still have to choose to have sex to get pregnant, and even if she doesn't want the baby why does she have to kill it? Why not put it up for adoption? There are plenty of people out there that want children but can't have them themselves.

Isn't there enough parent-less children out there?

And pregnancies have their risks, it's not all flowers, sunshine and "honey i want strawberries" in the middle of the winter 2 O'clock in the morning.

Humans as well as other intelligent creatures have sex for more then just reproduction, choosing to have or not have sex is not valid to be forced to go through a pregnancy when a child is unwanted. I would never force my girlfriend to carry though a pregnancy if we got unlucky.

And abortions have their risks:
_studies suggests that women who abort face a 50% increase in breast cancer,
_women who have experienced abortion have a 600% increase in their risk for Abruptio Placenta in future pregnancies (This can result in extreme and severe life-threatening bleeding),
_abortion causes infertility in 2-5% of the women who have an abortion,
_50% of women who have had abortions report experiencing emotional and psychological problems lasting for months or years.

And that couldn't possibly be attributed to the situation that led to abortion or anything of course not. How about you throw out some more meaningless statistics that amount to a hill of beans. I heard if you go outside you increase your chances of getting hit by a car by 100%!

Force people to have unwanted children because of YOUR moral standing. Nobody is asking you and people like you to police the world personally.

Church going Christian here BTW. Enjoy the rape everyone! Because...well....sperm is alive apparently.

Most women have unwanted pregnancies because they were careless, not because they were raped. What I said still stands.

Keep insults out of this discussion. What you said is just insulting and has no meaning in this discussion.

What insults just saying that I am a church going Christian and I don't believe others should be forced to do something because of moral standings of a few others.

You have a statistic for that first one or are just going to go with what you perceive again? Even if it was the case, who cares? It's their body, their choice and their lives. Sure it's f*cked up and irresponsible but guess what? Free will homie! That's speaking for the women that just had an accident of course. Rape victims shouldn't be looked down upon for not wanting to carry on the legacy of the dude that raped them.

Yes choosing to have sex is valid. You don't need sex to live.

I read what Zarius said, and I was getting upset. But then I remembered he has a mental disability.
