Should Roe v Wade be Overturned?

Posted on | October 18, 2005 |

With Harriet Miers’ impending comfirmation hearings, a lot of people want to know want she will want to overturn Roe v. Wade. Abortion, for as long as this country is they way we know it, will alwaybe be the forerunner of any political and judicial discussions. There is no easy answer and I really don’t think there could be ever be a compromise. abortion is going to be either legal or not.

I know of a girl who had an abortion. She was young and dumb and had unprotected sex with a man. She was afraid of her parents and felt the procedure was the only way out. A few years later, this same girl was raped. And she became pregnant from the rape. She could not go through with another abortion. It was very painful for her as her the baby grew becasue of what happened. After the birth, she gave the baby up for adoption.

I like to think that many women might actually feel this way. They have one and they could never,ever do it again.

From what I hear from this girl it is horrid, hearing the vaccuum. But not only that, the mental anguish she felt sfter that will always be with her.

I know there are women out there that use this as form of birth control.

I think that we should leave abortion legal. Respect the decision of the previous justice who thought this was constitiunional. After all, captiol punishment is not against the law. Perhaps, instead of overturing Roe v. Wade. there should be some real education about abortion. What the procedure is and maybe have women who have had one come and talk to young men and women about the truth. Almost scaring the kids so they would think twice about their decisions. Maybe teaching the truths about it without bias, maybe the abortion rate will go down. Maybe it will go down so much that maybe many won’t happen. Already teen preganancy is on the decline.

These are my opionions, this won’t give anyone really any satisfaction. I do believe in choice, informed and educated choices.

Have a nice day.
