Babies don't need to be born. Why the fuck should it matter if they are aborted or not? They are taking away a life that hasn't really started yet. No what ifs, ands or buts about it. I see no harm done. Except done to the baby of course, but that is over pretty soon. Side: Pro-Choice

If someone is a strict constructionist who interprets the Constitution word for word, the sanction for abortion is given under the Fourteenth Amendment.
The Fourteenth Amendment of our U.S. Constitution defines a citizen “a citizen” at birth. If a woman is carrying a fetus in the womb, the U.S. Constitution does not designate the fetus as “a citizen.” It would take an amendment to the U.S. Constitution to declare a fetus a citizen. You have to be born in order to be recognized as a citizen. Therefore, a woman does have the right to choose. A fetus inside the womb is not designated as a citizen according to the U.S. Constitution so by default is not entitled to life, liberty, or prosperity. You have to be born in order to be endowed with those privileges. To conclude, neither the Federal government nor any of the States can deny a woman the right to choose.
If abortion is murder, abortion would have been terminated years ago due to the cruel and unusual punishment clause under the Eighth Amendment. Again, proof that a fetus is not recognized as a citizen of the United States of America. Side: Pro-Choice

It would be more accurate to say I am anti-abortion. I do not see enough justification for it, especially with all the selfishness of the woman having the sole choice, despite only contributing half of its chromosomes. Oh, and being one-half of the decision to even have sex in the first place. Side: Pro-Life
