Claim: Abortion is legal therefore, it must be right. Claim: You want to ban women's "constitutional right" to abortion. Answer: If child abuse were suddenly declared legal by the U.S. Supreme Court, would that Answer: This is a "spurious" or false "right" - having no basis in the Constitution. The U.S. make it right? Would we ignore such an injustice and do nothing to protect the children? Supreme Court claims to have discovered a "privacy" right in the "penumbra" of the Constitution ("penumbra" definition: a partly lighted area around an area of full shadow). Claim: I have the right to "choose" to abort my baby -a woman's "right to choose!" Court decisions (Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton) arc aberrations (deviations from truth) and Answer: How can anyone have the right to choose to kill another individual? The only do nothing more than grant temporary license to kill children in the womb, the most "choice" in abortion is between a dead babv or a live baby. Furthermore, the advocates who dangerous place of residence. This license is tenuous and could be over-ridden by reversal defend the "choice" to abort, producing a dead baby, are not consistent. Why is it only in or an amendment to the U.S. Constitution. Indeed, to guarantee the permanent freedom of the case of abortion they argue that "choice" should be absolute? Using the same rationale, the slaves and establish rights for all U.S. "persons" the 14th Amendment to the Constitution shouldn't people have the right to "choose" to use drugs {"It's my body") or the right to was passed. It states, "...No slate shall make or enforce any law which shall abridge the "choose" to practice prostitution? Should our society allow a person lo'choose" to kill privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States: nor shall any state deprive any another person (or have that person killed) to solve the first person's problem? person of life, liberty, or property without due process of law; nor deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the law."

Some Life, Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness." Thomas Jefferson defined government's role, states have entire sections of law outlining Crimes Against Unborn Children in which they, "The care of human life and happiness, and not their destruction, is the first and only object from conception on, are protected from negligent or willful harm or death. of good government." President Reagan, a defender of the human and civil rights of the preborn. called it "the transcendent right to life of all human beings, the right without which no other rights have any meaning " (Without life, taxation, education etc., arc immaterial).

To quote Congressman Henry Hyde, "We have a 'right' to free speech. Does this mean the government has to buy us a personal computer? A typewriter? A megaphone?" Claim: Abortion should be legal to end a pregnancy resulting from rape or incest. Answer: It is important to remember that the child conceived in rape, or incest, is no less Claim: I am personally opposed to abortion, bull would not interfere with another's right human than any other child. David Reardon's article, (page 8) points out that the very worst to have an abortion nor impose my morality on others. solution that can be offered to the pregnant woman at this crisis lime in her life is an abortion. Answer: Analogy -- if the abolitionists had bought this argument regarding the slavery issue, Abortion compounds the problem! If a small child were killed in the street by a negligent some states could still be saddled with slavery today.

Since illegal abortions are not reported, the most accurate statistics are the reports on the number of maternal deaths from illegal abortions. In 1972, the year prior to Roe vs. Wade, 39 women died from illegal abortions. That same year, 25 women died from legal abortion (abortion-on-demand was legal in 2 stales). There is ample evidence that there is underreporting of deaths from legal abortions. Often, another cause of dcaih is listed For instance a 1991 abortion death in Maryland was reported as "Cause of death - therapeutic misadventure."
