if they were raped then it should be allowed for them to get an abortion but for everybody no matter what, after 3 months it should be illegal.
@9GLZCG4Constitution7mos7MO
Babies have the right to be protected. In rape and incest scenarios, the perpetrator should be punished not the child.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
Unborn babies do not have the right to be protected, as they do not have the right to use their mother's bodies without her consent in the first place. If she does not want them using her body, then she has every right to stop them from doing so.
@9GMXLR7Women’s Equality6mos6MO
I agree it depends on the matter of the situation with how the carrier got pregnant in the first place with the outcome being the way it is it should be allowed.
@9GLYPQL7mos7MO
I understand that rape, incest, etc. is horrible for the mother. I, also, believe that the "clump of cells" that are produced from these actions is a person. I believe that every time an abortion is performed, then someone's life is ended. It is taking away the choice from the baby, similar to how the choice is taken away from the mothers in rape.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
The baby never had a choice to begin with, because no person has the right to use another person's body without their consent. If the mother doesn't want someone using her body, then she has every right to stop them from continuing to do so, whether they are using her for a rape or a pregnancy or otherwise.
@9GMD7786mos6MO
Abortion should only be provided for women who have been victims of rape, incest, or danger to the mother or child has occured.
@9GP9Q3Z6mos6MO
if a woman is raped, she should be able to have an abortion. no woman should have to bare a child that is unwanted.
@9GLWYC97mos7MO
No matter how you get pregnant killing something that is already alive as a cell is murder. There are better options such as adoption.
@@CaptainMan7mos7MO
plants are alive as cells too
@9GMR23L6mos6MO
It does not depend on how the carrier got pregnant, I believe that every baby should be born, no matter the circumstances. If the woman is raped and she cannot take care of the baby I think that she should be able to send the baby to an adoption center, abortion should not be allowed anywhere in the world.
@VulcanMan6 6mos6MO
Well then when you get pregnant you can choose to keep yours...
@9GPX9H56mos6MO
Abortion is wrong at every stage, no matter the circumstances of the pregnancy and therefore should be illegal.
@9GMLGMD6mos6MO
If one gets raped, they are still going to have trauma and getting an abortion is further going to add to that. No matter what that is still a human life being taken away
@9GM2DPNLibertarian7mos7MO
I believe that abortion shouldn't be allowed only in cases where a decision was clearly made, and we must accept those consequences however this may vary based on the risk or health of the mother or the child. Furthermore, in the case of rape it can be hard for victims to speak up and finally realize that they may be pregnant, therefore with reasonable cause we should be able to bend the age limit a little bit.
@9GSBY3SRepublican6mos6MO
I agree with this statement because there is certain circumstance but after the baby has developed to be considered alive it should not be aborted
@9GRRL8J6mos6MO
The prevention of human life at any point of conception or in the process of pregnancy is murder. Murder is bad and illegal.
@9GNJSMK6mos6MO
If the person who gave birth to the child is under the age of 18 then the child should be brought to an adoption agency but can only be adopted once the parent of the child agrees to give it to the person.
@9GLX45VRepublican7mos7MO
If you don't want the baby, just. give it up for adoption. Someone will love them even though you may not.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
If you want to, sure, but you have no obligation to allow this baby to use your body against your consent for several months if you don't want it to, hence why you have every right to stop it from doing so, if you so choose.
@9GPJSV66mos6MO
I dont think they should be able to get an abortian because that would bacsicly be like murdering someone.
@9GMPG876mos6MO
There are ways. Don't kill the kid before it gets a chance. Adoption is always an option. Abortion is killing the kid before it gets to experience life.
@VulcanMan6 6mos6MO
It isn't owed a chance to begin with because no person, even a fetus, has the right to use another person's body without their consent. The mere existence of a child in the womb is entirely dependent on the consent of the mother; if she consents to it using her body, fine, but if she doesn't, then oh well...
@9GLWZ577mos7MO
the baby is a living and growing being and as a Christian, I don't believe that killing a growing human, who is God's creation, is okay at all. God is creating each baby for a purpose and killing it isn't right.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
Your god has personally killed countless babies, born and unborn, so I really doubt he cares; your authoritarian religious leaders upholding patriarchal values definitely want you to to think he cares though...
@9GQVVVB6mos6MO
No, I think if a human is being born they were brought here for a reason and they don't deserve to have their life taken away when they didn't even ask for it.
Deleted6mos6MO
So just because the baby's father was a rapist you'd rather murder the baby instead of punishing the father in jail? If the mother will not care for the baby due to the emotional turmoil surrounding it's conception, then just have the baby put up for adoption or send it to an orphanage. By the way, life starts at conception, just because it's not sentient or can't feel pain yet doesn't mean the baby isn't alive.
@9GM45JQ7mos7MO
killing a baby is still killing a baby, there are plenty of families out there that can't have kids that would love to adopt
@9GQ8B4F6mos6MO
It could be incredibly easy for a woman to claim they were raped in order to get an abortion if they don’t want to carry to term. This would most likely become a fraudulent system where babies die unnecessarily. Babies have the right to live, regardless of their conception.
@9GQ5BCR6mos6MO
If rape results in conception, the resulting child can be adopted by the thousands of Parents who want to add to their family, or are unable to have babies
@9GNTHWQ6mos6MO
It should be illegal! Unless, the mother or newborn is at risk of being injured or killed during pregnancy/delivery.
@VulcanMan6 6mos6MO
You should be able to get one for no reason.
@9GLXG5G7mos7MO
Even if the carrier got pregnant by assault they're still carrying a human being that has no fault in the situation. By getting an abortion there is one thing you will have to keep in mind, you are a murderer, and if your religious then your going to hell. The fetus is a helpless being and even thought you were raped or forced, the child is still a part of you.
@VulcanMan6 7mos7MO
The fault is irrelevant, it still doesn't deserve to be there without its mother's consent. No person, even a fetus, has the right to use another person's body against their consent, and you have every right to stop someone from using your body if they violate that consent. Abortion is just as justified as any other form of self-defense or medical procedure.
@9GMCV6J 6mos6MO
I partially disagree, but only because I believe abortion should always be allowed, no matter the circumstances of the pregnancy. I do, however, believe it should become illegal after the end of the first trimester.
@9GRFK7W6mos6MO
Abortion should always be illegal. Abortion is murder. You are killing an innocent unborn baby who does not deserve to die. If you are raped, you should carry the baby and birth the baby; if you truly do not want the baby, put him/her up for adoption.
Certainly, no woman should be forced to carry her rapist baby to birth, but if we look at the statistics, like we do all the time, that is rare and it is a common liberal talking point.
@9GN7CP96mos6MO
I agree that rape is wrong and terrible but that can not justify killing an innocent baby. Every baby in the womb has a right to live.
@9GMJFZ56mos6MO
Two wrongs don't make a right. Just because you were wronged doesn't make abortion, which is murder, acceptable.
@9GLX26NRepublican7mos7MO
A life is a life. There are many ways that the child of a rape-victim can live a full and healthy life, such as adoption.
@9GLWY9C7mos7MO
I would disagree because any life is life and should not be able to take away the oppertunity to live from someone. Just because she was raped does not mean the kid will be mentally messed up.
@9GMBD4M6mos6MO
Life begins at conception. Just because someone killed someone you love, does not give you the right to kill that person. So if you are raped, you shouldn’t be allowed to take the life of the innocent. Often times an abortion will just add more pain to the horror of a rape situation.
