Editorial on Abortion
Approximately 42 million abortions are performed each year all over the world and approximately 42 million people populate the state of California. Therefore the amount of babies killed in just one year would be enough to repopulate the third largest state in America. In the United States alone there are 1.37 million abortions each year and 52% of the women obtaining these abortions in the United States are under the age of 25. Still at such a young age, do these women really understand the consequences to come after taking away a precious life of a human being that could have been the next scientist to cure cancer or our next president?
Abortion should be outlawed for good not only in the United States but around the world. This then might arise the question of how can a low income single women afford to raise a child of her own or a teenage girl who hasn't even graduated high school yet? Adoption is a choice every women has a right to, weather it is a closed adoption or not, don't punish an innocent human being for your mistake of having un protected sex. I believe that the ONLY circumstance a women should have the choice of aborting a baby or not is if rape is involved. But only 1% of all abortions occur because of rape or incest. The likelihood of abortion is estimated 43% of all women will have at least one abortion by the time they are 45 years old, now thats a lot of babies.
When people think of abortion its more of an idea then an action. Statistics say that 89% of abortions occur in the first trimester (the first twelve weeks) of pregnancy. This is when the doctor usually hears the babies heart beat, the babies facial features start to become more defined such as its nose and chin, its fingernails and toenails start to grow and the baby is about the size of large plum. Now imagine ripping that innocent little thing apart limb by limb then breaking its skull as it tries to escape. Well that is exactly what happens, as brutal as it sounds, it is 100%
