Abortion Rebuttal

Abortion; artificial, but effective; possibly immoral, yet efficient; is an issue that goes beyond these issues. Whether abortion truly is immoral or unnatural, the matter of the fact is that there will be people who try to get rid of their child with or without a legal abortion. They will try unlicensed abortions or even intentional miscarriages to get rid of it. And that is the issue politicians fight over: not legalizing abortions because their immoral, but to keep Americans from making life threatening decisions.

According to a 2009 survey, “millions of…women who become pregnant die from unlicensed a
bortion risk [such as lack of proper materials, or even unsafe recovery procedures]”. People will try to get rid of their baby whether abortions are legal or not. The risk of illegalizing abortions could be worth millions of lives.

Furthermore, if a baby were brought onto into the world by an unintended pregnancy followed by an unwillingness to receive an abortion will lead to an unwanted child. In most cases, that child will be abandoned; at best, they will be raised without a traditional family life, either with single parents or even only living with one. Whether the ideal is "moral" or "immoral", it is not only the choice of the mother, but this statement is also an opinion. The other side has even stated

"Yes, it is the choice and opinion of the mother to receive an abortion. She should choose whether an abortion would be legal or illegal."

Another reason that most fight against an abortion lays in the possible pain the baby deals with. However, keep in mind that abortion usually only occur within the first three months. At that point in time, the baby is barely developing. In addition the pregnancy terminates instantly, so it is impossible for the baby to feel pain.
In conclusion, illegal abortions will not stop people from having them, but will protect lives.
