An adult who was born is making a decision to deny birth to another. Most based on nothing but inconvenience. If you don't see the problem, there is something wrong with.
I think it is idiotic to get Plastic surgery. Breast enhancements as one example. But I have no right to tell someone to do it or not. I think it is selfish to get a kitten or puppy and then dump them at the shelter. I think a lot of things are wrong. But it is not my place to do anything about it.
I don’t know why that woman is having an abortion. And it is none of my business. It is her life. Not mine. Even using Religious Teachings, my duty is to pray for the woman, and hope that God guides her to the right decision.
I’m a Smoker. I smoke despite knowing how bad it is for me. It’s my choice, and I can’t blame anyone for it. I want to be free to live my life the way I want. I can’t begrudge that freedom to another.
All that anyone can do is make sure I am aware of the risks. And that is all anyone can do for a woman who wants an abortion. After that is attended to, the best thing is to make it as safe as possible.
Give her the best chance possible to get through the procedure safely.
But I’ll give you another good reason not to outlaw them. Cheapskate Conservatives. Ones who are always screaming about welfare mothers and all that. They would have to cough up more money for the various programs they detest. Their property taxes would go up to afford new schools. For all those kids need them right?
Social Spending would have to go up, and Conservatives hate spending a dime on any social programs. We have enough hungry kids in this country. We have enough kids shoved into overcrowded classrooms. We have enough of everything except money to care for them. And the Conservatives are the ones leading the charge to cut those funds every chance they can.
So you will never get me on board. An abortion is bad. But it is worse in my mind to subject that kid to a lifetime of deprivations and sorrow knowing that the odds are that kid will end up being a resident of the state for the rest of his life when he turns to crime to get money because there isn’t any other alternatives. Or the kid will end up in an orphanage now called Group Homes to make them more inviting, while Conservatives scream that they cost too much and we need new airplanes to kill our enemies with.
So no. I won’t sign on in opposition to Abortion for those among other reasons. Solve some of those issues, especially the financial one, and we can reconsider. Until then, **** off and get out of her Uterus.
