A Persuasive Speech: A Speech On Abortion

Abortion is one of the most controversial topic in the United States at the moment. Abortion is defined as the deliberate termination of a pregnancy, usually before the embryo or fetus is capable of independent life. Pro-life supporters believe that abortion is murder and No one should be able to decide whether who lives or dies. While pro- choice supporters believe that a woman has the choice on whether she want to give birth or not .If a woman is rape; a pro-life supporter believes that abortion is wrong with no exceptions including rape or if the mother’s life is endangered: the child’s right to life outweighs the mother’s right to her body. How can we claim to be the land of freedom, yet our government is constantly restricting abortions laws throughout the United States. Woman should have the freedom to have an abortion without the government interference.

Considering American ethics and values, death is morally wrong. Therefore, the killing of unborn fetuses is morally wrong as well.Abortion

Abortion challenges the civil rights of the mother and the fetus, which she bears and under certain circumstances, abortion may be the most appropriate or suitable action to take. It is acceptable to have an abortion to stabilize and maintain a lifestyle. Abortion is their choice and they will not be stuck with a limitation on their life. One can either have an abortion, keep the child and raise it, or give the child for adoption; nonetheless it is the choice of the woman. It is a woman 's choice to have a baby or not, and if unplanned, she should also have the choice to keep it or to take action to change her situation. Unwanted pregnancies occur in many women in the United States, currently about fifty-one percent of over six million pregnancies

It’s no doubt that our world today is full of unsolved, contentious and controversial issues. Most of them relate to morals, religions or ethics thus create many strong opinions in “yes” and “no” or “good” and “bad” sides. Abortion is one of those sensitive issues. There are numerous proponents and opponents of abortions in the US. Proponents of abortion believe that unwanted pregnancies can be very stressful for women and they should have the right to make decisions about their bodies. However, abortion is seriously wrong because killing a fetus is killing a person. And obviously, death is the end of life for the fetus when the fetus should have the right to have a life just like ours.

Abortion has taken the lives of more than 50 million babies since 1973 (“About Abortion”). The issue of abortion is one of the most common controversial issues in American politics and culture. In modern society, many women that have an unintended pregnancy and they result to abortion without researching other options. Abortion is not a substitute for birth control and this issue should be taken seriously. The individual woman needs to understand that by agreeing to have an abortion she is agreeing to kill an innocent fetus. Abortion rips the unborn child from his or hers right to life. Society needs to let women see through the eyes of the fetus and find alternative ways to raise the baby. Abortion should be illegal because childhood begins at conception, not at birth.

Many do not understand the abortion in today 's society. Dozens of human lives are being thrown away. Abortion is wrong because fetuses feel pain, life begins at conception, Abortion is murder, Abortions reduce the number of and adoptable babies, and Selective abortion based on genetic abnormalities is discrimination.

Abortion has been a controversial topic in the U.S ever since it became legal in 1973 after the Roe v. Wade case. Abortion is defined as the, “the deliberate termination of a human pregnancy, most often performed during the first 28 weeks of pregnancy.” Pro-life supporters believe that abortion is unethical and argue that it is the mother’s responsibility to own up to her actions. They also argue that there is always the option of adoption, and that abortion could be very dangerous. I am pro-life and believe that the government doesn’t have the right to decide what a woman can or can’t do with her body.

“From Roe v. Wade in 1973 through 2011, nearly 53 million legal abortions were performed in the United States – an average of about 1.4 million abortions per year” (ProCon.org, 2015). Abortion is a sensitive subject that most ignore. For a number of women, it is a difficult decision that they must make for numerous different reasons. Rape, incest, medical reasons, or even being an adolescent just to name a handful. Therefore, the world should be more accepting of women needs when it comes to abortion.

Some people view it as murder while others see it as an alternate way of birth control. A popular debate in today’s society concerns whether abortion is the termination of the life of a fetus, or rather a way to terminate a pregnancy. Abortion is a voluntary medical procedure in which the embryo or fetus is removed from the uterus to terminate a pregnancy. The thought of abortion has gotten very popular among young adults over the last few decades and have caused many different opinions to rise, this seems to be caused by the evolution of technology in science making abortion cheaper and much safer. However, in the 1800s this was not the case, abortion was banned in Canada, as a result, illegal operations were popular, and in some cases death

Imagine if figures like Christopher Columbus, Abraham Lincoln, and Martin Luther King Jr. never came to this world. Imagine if the discovery of the Americas, the ending of slavery, and the notorious Civil Rights Movements never held a date in history because of an abortion. What would the world seem like today? An abortion represents the willing, inhumane termination of a pregnancy. With no remorse or consideration, women across the globe undergo abortions daily. The defenseless human in their womb is murdered with no say for its life. Not only do abortions end the lives of human beings, but they slowly kill the mother and society along the way. The deliberate termination of a pregnancy should count illegal across the entire planet Earth because

Abortion? An abortion is a surgical process which removes the “unwanted” baby from the mother. This is called “termination of pregnancy”. Since abortion was legalized in 1973, approximately 1,500,000 babies have been aborted each year. An abortion can either be done by the clinic or by a pill. If you are more than 12 weeks a doctor more than likely don’t allow you to still be able to have an abortion. However the higher you are in your pregnancy the more it’s going to cost. And if you decide to get an abortion you must be 18 or older if not you must be with a parent or guardian who has a legal Florida state I.D to go along with the process. If you are under 12 weeks the abortion ranges from $350. - $450.The process of abortion takes about 15-20 minutes. After an abortion, it takes about 2-3 weeks before your body to recover and you want to make sure your body is fully healed before you decide to have sex again. I know some people might not have the fund to raise a child, but there are some places that help you out with clothes shoes and many different items for your baby. Some people may feel as though they are not ready to bring a baby into the world. Or they don’t have the funds to raise one. There are many different reasons as to why people may feel like abortion is the right choice. However I am totally against it. Why? Because abortion is a cruel and sad act performed on an innocent child. I would NEVER have one, but I don’t have anything against the ones who choose an abortion. I just feel as though that it’s not right and there are other roads that you can take instead of an abortion. There are reasons I have as to why I say no to abortion. Number 1: abortion takes an innocent life. A baby was never asked to be in the wo...

Of the millions of pregnancies that happen every year, almost half of those pregnancies are aborted. What some people do not know is that abortion is murder; the life of an innocent, unborn baby is being ended because the mother does not want that child. Many people say that the baby is unaware of what is going and they do not feel anything; when really, a baby can feel pain just days after conception. A baby is a baby; it still has arms, legs, and a functioning brain just like the rest of us do. So why are these babies getting murdered? Life begins immediately after conception; Abortion is wrong because it is murder, a “quick getaway” and it is a cheaper way for irresponsible women to not have to take care of someone. There are other options that do not involve murder.

Abortion is never an easy decision, in fact its one of America’s most controversial issues in today’s reality, but women have none the less been making that choice for thousands of years. Studies show that about 43% of American women will have one or more abortions during their lifetime, and women's centers and hospitals perform more than a million abortions on an annual basis. Women have many reasons for not wanting to be pregnant including age, marital status, economic status, and the circumstances of their pregnancy, and thus seek out an abortion. Although many citizens view abortion as an immoral act of brutality and strongly contest its usage, others believe the choice belongs solely to the mother and the mother alone.

“brain dead” when she arrived. Lakisha medical records stated that she had died from “Cardiac respiratory Arrest/death”. However the Autopsy revealed Lakisha Wilson suffered from blood loss and went into shock. According to the medical assistance women who are later in their pregnancy have a greater chance of death. Studies have shown that women run the risk of death whether they are in an early stage or a later stage of pregnancy. The case of Tonya Reaves who died during an earlier pregnancy abortion was reported by The Chicago CBS News. Reaves had the dilation and evacuation procedure at Planned Parenthood. Where she was suffering from a lot of bleeding and was rushed by the ambulance to the Northwestern Memorial Hospital. Through the ultra sound that was performed were they saw that the abortion was incomplete. The medical examiner discovered pieces of placenta still attached to the inside of her womb and did another dilation and evacuation. The procedure only brought more problems and pain. It was revealed that a 3/16 Inch uterine perforation {a hole made by boring or piercing} had been performed. Reaves was pronounced dead in the operating room due to hemorrhaging due to an intrauterine pregnancy. Both ladies lost their lives due to bleeding due to an abortion. Not
