This topic angers me so (and I guess it does that to a lot of people or it wouldn't be so hotly debated)
The simple fact is:
Abortion is a medical procedure. It has nothing to do, nor any place in politics. Regardless of your beliefs...Pro or Con...It does not matter. If your heart tells you it is a wrong procedure-don't have it performed, try and talk all your friends and children into believing the same way you do, and they will opt not to have it performed.
But, if your heart tells you it is a necessay procedure, whatever the reason, then go to the safety of a Doctor's office, be able to walk in the door (without fear of some zealot with a gun), and get on with your life....
Laws are created to keep the masses in order and allow our society to function freely, without the fear of being persecuted, for thinking or saying something that the majority may not agee upon (or at least in theroy)
Men (generally), have made these laws over hundreds of years. The decision in 72' was the correct one-Leave women and their bodies alone.
It's a medical matter-Get it?
