Abortion Debate - Pittsburgh, PA

I dont agree with abortion. A child is precious no matter how conceived or by whom, but the argument remains that if abortion were not legal it would continue to be practiced illegally. This would lead to the death of inocent women and young girls due to infection and mal practice.

A woman should have the right to remove any growth in her body. Life doesn't begin until the first breath. To many people buy into the cruel theory that life begins at inception. Why bring into a planet, that is beginning to be overpopulated, an unwanted child, that will have a cruel life, possibly kill some one and then be executed. Is that pro-life?

Im in the middle.

Murder is murder.

True... and abortion, while undesireable, is not murder. And that is the law of the land... Not some right-wing whack-job fantasy.

A baby with a HEARTBEAT in a mothers womb isn't a "growth".lmfao. If life begins when a baby breathes fresh air then why is there a heartbeat shortly after conception. You're probably a goof woman who's had several abortions because you're a slut and sleep with whoever will roll around in the sheets with you.Many families would welcome a child into their home in regards to an unwanted pregnancy.You're a goof.

So, anyone who doesn't share your beliefs regarding abortion is a "goof woman" and a "slut?" One thing we can be sure of is that while you may call yourself a Christian, you fall very short of it in actual practice.

Well said. Bravo!

Abortion is a moral decision. Not a legal one.
There are far too many variations in reasons a woman would seek an abortion. It's not always just for birth control. Everyday, babies are aborted that were very wanted and very planned. But, because of some fatal defect, families choose to terminate a pregnancy. This option should not be taken away.
Also- for families who receive a fatal diagnosis and continue to carry the pregnancy, often times they will induce labor early to meet their child alive. This is, in essence, an abortion. Labor is induced knowing the child will die... but the family should not be denied this time with their child.
I for one continued my pregnancy despite a fatal diagnosis. I did not induce until my daughter's heart had stopped. But, I do not feel this choice should be taken away from other women. It's not a legal decision. No politician has a right to say what a woman does with her uterus.

A woman has a right to chose.

Not if the GOP seizes the Congress And the White House! She won't even be able to choose to prevent her pregnancy.

I'm all for womens rights;but how about little girls' rights-the ones still in the womb?

only if the infent or a mother or both are in danger.

That's properly called a fetus; it's not a "little girl."

I'm not just pro-choice - I'm pro-abortion. I wish more women would terminate their pregnancies or just not get pregnant in the first place.

It might be a sedative to your conscience to call a baby a fetus, but it certainly doesn't change reality. Semantics with "pro-choice" words (oh, theres another one!) only work on the ignorant, uninformed, or those with an agenda or a guilty conscience.

Reality? You need to get real, fool; I side with medical science and the law. An ignorance is the hallmark of the anti-abortionists, who only adopted the pro-life label to hide their agenda against the rights of women.

Of course, most pro-lifers support Republican wars where children are killed or made orphans.

They also eat meat.

Pro-lifers are sanctimonious to the extreme.

So, should women have funerals after a miscarriage? What are the spiritual questions raised my a miscarriage? Is it an abortion by God?

I am a woman (a college-educated one, at that), so why would I be against womens rights? Your logic really is no logic at all, just a series of tired old phrases recycled over and over again. And what does republic vs democrat have to do with this? I am NOT a republican. Wouldn't dream of it.
I am a non-political person who has seen an ultrasound of a baby in the womb. A picture really IS worth a thousand words. There is none so blind an those who will not see
