I'm not really into euphemisms, so let's just call pro-choice what it is-- Murder of the unborn. Something strikes me as odd, though. When a woman has an abortion during her first trimester, no one considers what she just did murder, but if someone kills a pregnant woman who's in their first trimester, then that person can be charged with the murder of an unborn child. Well, I'm not the smartest person in the world, but isn't that a bit contradictory? Murder is murder, no matter who does it.

Anyway, I scoff at the "It's my body, so I'll do what I want!" notion because, unless there's been some sort of biological shift in women which I'm not aware of, they're not asexual and can't make a baby on their own. Since a woman isn't 100% responsible for making a baby, she shouldn't have 100% of the decision regarding abortion. A man should have some sort of say so since he's equally as responsible for making a baby as a woman is.

If a woman wants an abortion and the father doesn't, then the father should be able to prevent the woman from having an abortion but, in doing so, he assumes all responsibilities for the child and absolves the mother of any type of responsibility.

If both a woman and a man want to have an abortion because they're not ready to be parents well... To that I say "Tough luck!". Either use protection or don't have sex.

Only in instances of rape will I agree to abortions. Too bad the majority of abortions in America don't occur because of rape... For the most part abortions are just leading to an increase in irresponsible behaviour.

That's my $.02.

Edit: I was driving to Taco Bell and I saw this billboard on the road. I don't think that any of us here would have wanted to be aborted, so is it too much to assume that-- If a fetus could talk-- That they wouldn't want to be aborted either? Meh... That's a bit of a stretch, but it's just something to think about.
