I often get sidetracked and cannot stay on topic due to something...(His mind slowly drifts off into a faraway land of procrastination). I can do the given assignment but cannot bring myself to do it today, at this moment because i just cannot type things coherently without being side tracked a little by something.
So, for abortion and the issue at hand; I believe that women should not be getting abortions, I never said shouldn’t be allowed to get abortions but after being in class for a while and learning about this topic and all of its controversy from both the pro-life and pro-choice sides i have decided like in other cases that the government should not really get involved in some things. Is killing a "baby" or fetus or any other living organism wrong? Yes, but people hunt for fun and others kill the people that perform the abortions and a lot of people fight in wars. Is it the woman’s body? Also yes and they should be able to choose whether or not they should go through pregnancy. The argument that in cases of rape and incest, abortion is a valid option...True; or in other words i agree that this would present a valid reason to have an abortion. In cases of consent by the woman to have sex with a man and then disregard the consequences because they can always just never go through with the pregnancy is not a valid reason to just go out and have and abortion. If the woman consented and fully knew that a consequence to sex was possibly pregnancy then she should have the baby and then if she wants to, give it up for adoption. That being said there should be no real legalization or illegalization of abortion because women should be able to have control over their bodies. So should we be running around just aborting babies, no, but there is always a reason regarding why that person is getting an abortion and most likely it is a valid one for the woman that is receiving the operation. I am sort of linking this to the case about McDonalds and the state of California; the state said that McDonalds can no longer sell Happy Meals with a toy to the kids because the burgers and fries were making them unhealthy. The parents agreed because the toy was an incentive for the kid to want a happy meal and for them to buy it for the kid. The parent decides for the kid about what they eat so eliminating the toy is a dumb argument saying that we don’t have control over what we do and our bodies.
