Abortion

 

            
             Many changes have occurred in the United States over the past 30 years. We have seen seven different presidents. The invention of the Internet, as well as the mass production of the personal computer. We have also rang in a new millennium. However, with all of this change, one constant has remained over the past 30 years, the debate on abortion.
             Every since the decision of the Roe v. Wade came in, the debate between those who are Pro-Life, and believe that abortion is something that should not be an alternative, and those who are Pro-Choice, who believe abortion is right of the woman, has raged on. Personally I strongly am Pro-Choice, and very much believe it is unfair for the government to make the choice that a women must have a child, even when she is unready, or the child is unwanted.
             Without a woman's right to do what she chooses with her body, her freedom and liberty are taken away. If for personal reasons, a women wants an abortion, as is, currently, her constitutional right, she has the freedom to do so. In some states, a woman's freedom to have an abortion has been severely limited. Because of this, many women have had abortions by people not medically licensed to perform them. Many of these unlicensed and unqualified people have used un-sterile instruments, thus causing illness or death. A child needs to be loved and wanted. A baby, whose mother resents his birth, will not receive the proper care and nurturing he deserves. Perhaps, the child would be better off not to have been born. For these reasons, I support the Pro-Choice movement.

             We all know America as the "land of the free", as sung daily by many in "The Star Spangled Banner". Knowing that many women's independence has been taken away, how can we, Americans, who claim to be people of liberty, say the words of "The Star Spangled Banner" in good conscience? Females have been told what to do with and how to treat their bodies.
