EDITORIAL: Leave Abortion Alone!


Abortion, or the right to terminate a pregnancy, should be the woman’s choice in any situation within reason. Many claim that abortions aren’t ethically correct saying that a fetus can feel pain. It has been scientifically proven that they can’t, and, therefore they should be abolished. However abortions are not murder, seeing as the fetus could not live without its mother within the first trimester.


In some situations, abortions are almost necessary. Situations like; birth control failure, inability to support the child, rape, birth defects and several more. The woman in these situations have the right to make the correct decision because she is the guardian if the child were to be born.


Some people also say that abortion should not be legal because they believe It is religiously unsound and it’s a sin. However, these people are entitled to their beliefs, and the separation of church and state prevents this situation from ever occurring.


Every woman should have the right to every decision she wants to make because it is her body and she has the ability to do so. No one should have the power to tell her otherwise.
