Life or Death

     This is a very controversial and highly questioned topic both in today's schools, politics, and news. Abortion is the decision of a woman to have the child killed before its birth. There are many things and many choices involved in this that I completely disagree with.
     Initially, I do not agree with the principal of killing a baby. born or unborn. The only case in which I can see any reason to commit this horrible act is if the woman was at risk of losing her life in the giving of birth. What I disapprove of the most, and something Obama has voted for many times, is the allowance for death IF the first attempt at abortion fails. This consists of either killing the child or simply dumping them somewhere to die as nature wishes.
     A commercial, available on youtube and news stations for the coming election shows a beautiful 23 year old girl whose life was saved when a nurse picked her out of the garbage can at the hospital. Why is it that people find the need to end a life that they simply do not desire to have to worry about.
     It is absolutely disgusting that people think they can play God in choices that include life and death when the simple solution, if you want the child so little, is to give him/her to a family who truly wants them.
     In matters such as this, humans are stupid and naive. The right to choose life or death is not, in fact, the woman's. Especially when a  new law is being considered by a party in the USA, Obama's party, believes it is alright to abort a child based on GENDER. Not only is this completely sexist, but unfair when the child hasn't had a chance to live the life they are meant to live.
     IN the case of rape, I can understand abortion in particular cases, but it is unfair to take out the hatred for the criminal on the product of the crime. Abortion in my mind is just another crime, and one just a heinous as rape...it is murder.
     I conclude this debate knowing it will make many people angry, but knowing that by posting this someone out there may see it, and it may save a life. Thank you for reading.
