It is 28 times as likely a woman will die carrying a pregnancy to term than having a first trimester abortion. As long as this is the case it is unconscionable and unconstitutional to deny women the right to choose whether or not to carry a pregnancy to term. This has been settled law for almost half a century and is just common sense. The decision is the woman’s alone to make and anyone who is not pregnant themselves has no business at all in the decision.

Hey, for once common sense.
Keep it up.

But.... What would Jesus do? Does anyone think that this created life, under any circumstances would be deemed insignificant to
God. Of course one must recognize that there is a God. No, I don't believe under any , ANY, circumstance, God would condone the slaying of his creation. Period. There is no Grey area in Life vs death. Oh, how our perspectives and arguments would change could we be aborted at say 50, because we were disabled , sick or a burden.

There are places where it's already happening...it's called euthanasia. I remember when abortion became legal my mother saying that euthanasia would be next. It's taken a while but it's here and quickly growing...mark my words. Read Romans 1.

Non-active euthanasia, or assisted suicide, is legal in three US states;
Oregon
Washington
Montana
New Hampshire is currently considering a bill on assisted suicide

Active euthanasia, commonly referred simply as euthanasia, is only legal in:
The Netherlands
Belgium

Assisted suicide is also legal in:
Albania
Luxembourg

My reply is close to home, as I am 50, and recently spent some time in the hospital with pneumonia, lung issues. How we fight to live. And I dont trust the medical establishment. Lets see, your sick, lets poison you. I was released with side effects, that hadnt existed prior.
We need to find ways to treat ourselves, as profits, drug companies , are the beneficiaries, not your health. So I'm on a slew of alternatives, like medicinal mushrooms.and cbd oil, ect. Five days out, I I feel better. No steriods , no inhalers , no oxygen . Obama care, a tool for a speedy demise. I value the life of even a spider, as I can appreciate that desire to live. What heinous desensitization we have allowed, when we can kill children without remorse.

BB,

According to statistics, back in 2012, 34 percent of abortions were repeats. So, it would seem that 34 percent of women having abortions are using it as a means of birth control.

No question abortion is a form of BC. How do you think we could improve other forms?

My position is some what different. I believe that abortion is murder, but we all have to die so I don't disallow that. I do not consider Human life to be sacred, just valuable.
Young adults are worth more than babies, because we have invested more in them. That said, babies should be subsidized so mothers can do this reproduction process without fear.
There has to be a mechanism that helps 'girls in trouble'.

No one has a right to murder another human being except for and during war, self defense and to correct a grave injustice. When does life begin... it has to be at conception... no other possibility. It's not a woman's body, the mom's DNA and the baby's DNA do not match. The male in this fiasco is either a dad, a dog, or rapist. The woman is either a mom, a slut, or a murderer. Killing the baby is just an attempt to cover up the sins of the male and female and to make it all go away. PPH is in it for the money and are willing accomplices in murder. Until people are made accountable for their actions, society will continue to free fall until this practice is ended. I have read countless stories where the baby was suppose to be damaged in some way before birth only to be born perfectly healthy, some have even survived an abortion. The only time abortions were rare was before the Bible was removed from the public schools. A rapist should be sentenced to death weather a stranger, social peer or a family member, because they have committed a grave injustice against the woman and society. The baby conceived is innocent and should never have to pay for the sins/mistakes of others. The woman should give birth and then allow for adoption if she doesn't want the baby or she thinks she would end up punishing the baby for something it isn't responsible for. Homes for orphans should be established in each state and be run by moral people (Christians and Jews only) and after a through vetting. Financed by the state and good people who want to donate. No more slaying or silencing the innocent lambs. End all welfare except for widows and orphans and give the money to the states for homes for the children which would provide for the needs of the children until they reach adulthood. Those are my thoughts and beliefs and they will not change. That's the way it use to be and needs to be again. The homes should be exempt from all taxes of any kind and written into law. Even people who fall on hard times should be able to turn their children over to these homes, not child protection services where they are further damaged... and to reclaim their children if and when their circumstances improve and they are drug/alcohol free for at least a year. Even then the child should receive a equal vote with the parent on to go or stay. Both must agree for them to be reunited. The same goes for foster parents, if the child wants out, they are taken out then and there and returned to the home, law enforcement notified and charges levied or the foster parents placed on a list that prevents them from being foster parents in the future. Children are not garbage, they are gifts from God and should be treated as such.

Richard why should we subsidize mothers to reproduce?

Pennylynn do you know any woman that uses abortion for BC? If there is she should be sterilized IMHO.

60 million abortions performed in America and you sincerely believe the majority were not for birth control? Between the abortions performed in China and America, only these two countries, the total number performed exceeds the entire population of the USA. Add in the abortions from the rest of the world and you now live in an active holocaust age unparalleled in all human history. Hitler, Stalin, Mau were saints compared to today's abortion advocates. There will be Hell to pay for the brutal murders of the most innocent of all human life.
