this thread needs a nihilist touch.
first of all we all know when ever a politician speaks of abortion its really just to get elected/votes/higher aproval ratings. simply preach its abolition to the right and rant about the right to choice to the left. its really like people who play bf2 fighting over the planes, or script kiddies who loiter around irc chellels tring to score op status. political childishness is by far a bigger problem than abortion. theres always more important issues, but its sick when little issues that involve only one psedo-life take precidence over issues of larger scope.
that said i have a views on abortion, il start with the least offensive one in hopes you will read my whole post. people pick ineffieteint solutions to simple problems, or delay in making a desicion and thus cut off your options. starting with rape, if a woman is raped, it is her responsibility to report it immediatley so that they may be treated with the "rape kit".. you see we have theese things called morning after pills. it takes about 3 days for sperm to travel to the egg, taking the morning after pill prevents the egg andsperm from fusing (or at least create an invironment where the embryo cannot form). even with an embryo theres no guarantee of a feotus, its an iffy thing as it is, so i dont consider preventing an embryo from forming murder, unlike say aborting in the 2nd or 3rd trimester. morning after pills stop the problem before it becomes a life. women who report rape early can also be prevented from getting aids as well through the use of anti-retroviral medication. so there are many reasons rape should be reported asap. this should be explained in sex education, never have i been in a sex ed class that explained this.
morning after pills are a solution for when contraception fails, a rubber breaks, or you forgot your birth control pill. theres no reason an accidental pregnancy should occure. sex demands responsibility, so people who are irresponsible shouldnt be having sex. people who fail to use contraception dispite not wanting a child deserve not only to have an abortion but rather be forced to and sterilised for being stupid and attempting to pass their stupid genes down the line. likewise (while it has nothing to do with abortion) women who get knocked up on purpose so that they may collect welfare and child support and thus get a free ride in life should be shot, hung, and shot again, sex as a manipulation tool should not be tolerated. along this line rapists should get the death penalty, to reduce the need to want an abortion, we dont need rapist genes in the genepool. rape babies are prone to mental problems and when this mingles with rapist geenes it creates more potential rapeists. when both nature and nurture say the same thing, you know what will happen.
abortion should be legal if done immediately by prevention of embryonic formation, or if thats not possible before the feotal stage. if the baby has fewer neurons that a cray supercomputer has transistors, its probibly safe to assume sentience hasnt developed yet. of course you religious types will argue about the soul forming at conception. in reality you have no idea how soul formation occures or works. maybe your texts explain this. for you the soul is just what you call that what you fail to understand about the human essence. i perfer to go by a reasonable analasis, that the essence of a human is definded by the neurologial patterns operating through physical, electrical, chemical, and quantum level processes. if theese processes arent suffietiently developed, then conciousness cannot be confirmed.
as for the "how would you feel if your mother had an abortion with you" question. id feel alright about it, it would probibly be better off for everyone, but of course she didnt because otherwise she couldnt have collected welfare all her life.
...and death to those of you who think im kidding
