Rape Victims and Abortion

I recently read an article on The New York Times entitled "Rape Victims and Abortion" published on August 22, 2012, if you want to read the article it can be found on this link http://www.nytimes.com/2012/08/23/opinion/rape-victims-and-abortion.html

The article is basically about Representative Todd Akins's responds to representative Paul D. Ryan and Mitt Romney's thought on abortions including cases of rape. What the writer wants us to understand in this article is that women of sexual assault also known as rape should have the right to have abortions. And that all abortions should be illegal unless it’s been a case of rape. The information that I got from this article pretty much answered my question on why do women have abortions, but I know there are many more reasons why women have abortions. The article gave me some good evidence and will help me a lot with my curiosity question. I thought that the article had some good reasons why some women have abortions but I know it’s something I don’t support because I know it’s wrong. I know many will say that “You’re not a woman! You don’t have to deal with pregnancy”. All I’m saying is that I know having abortions is wrong; this article gave me a respectable clear answer why some women have them. It seems like many young females have abortions for all the wrong reasons like, their too young, that they don’t want the kid and they don’t want the responsibility to raise a child. Well that’s their fault for having sexual intercourse and not being responsible.

    1. I agree with you on Abortion that there is no right reasons to have it done and that if your raped yes that's one hell of good reason to since you never wanted to get raped and now you’re having that person baby. There are a lot of reasons why some woman do get it done like you said to young and not ready BUT that is your fault that you didn't have protective intercourse in the first place. To me if you’re not ready to have kids don't have sexual intercourse more so unprotected in fact. Some people just have not sense of responsible to think about the outcome if you don’t protective intercourse. Another thing is if you’re going to have abortion you should have thought of birth controls before so you wouldn’t be thinking of having an abortion. Yes it’s wrong to have an abortion since that's a living person inside you and that's like killing a child that took its first breath just plain wrong. Makes me sick to know you would hurt your child that way. To end a little person life is sad. To know that you end its life is hard and god gave you that gift. There’s another way go to the pharmacy and get a Pill called plan B. That’s one fix to not having an abortion and you are not killing a baby. Plus if you find out your pregnant and you chose to not have it there’s other ways give another family what they can’t get- adaption.
