I believe it's a living thing. In like 7 or so weeks it has a heartbeat. And for me, abortion, at any time is still killing.

I think that when it comes to abortion, people (not just women but men also) have to stop and consider the situation. Things like incest, rape, or a known birth defect that can not be overcome, are good reasons for abortion, but after that, it is up to a personal belief.
For myself, I could not imagine aborting a child. But that is my personal beliefs. I would not bad mouth anyone for what they have done. It's not my place. If someone came to me and asked my opinion about having one, I would hear their reasons as to why they want too. Then I would tell them how I would handle the situation. After that, it is up to them not me.

I strongly believe that whatever the reasons are for having an abortion, it makes the person involve a MURDERER. Just imagine, if you were on the unborn child's shoes and you know you'd be aborted, what would you tell your mother?
This is definitely a great deal of concern for moral issue!

I personally think that abortion is Murder, If you do it your a killer, dammit, there's so many things you could do with that child, I mean if you have the money to support it but just don't want it, then you shouldn't have spread your friggen legs to begin with, and there's always adoption...
It's amazing, people always find an excuse, oh it was rape, oh it was this, it was that, well then give it up for adoption, cause you go through a lot more problems when you abort then you do if you would just give it up... Damn i hate murderers.

Oh and for anyone who wants to say that it's not murder, a live fetus has a heart beet before you even know your pregnant, so try that one for size.

Sorry, but a heartbeat isn't sentience, or brain power.
There are far fewer negative effects for an abortion than there are with adoption. Just because you would never do it, does not give you the right to impose your personal and highly subjective beliefs on anyone else. Mind your own damned buisness.
Damn, I hate holier-than-thou meddlers.

You have got to be kidding me. You not only buy into the ignorant propoganda of the pro-life movement, but you refuse to educate yourself with actually medical documentation. Not to mention the fact that you can't even spell. As well as telling me to "get my brain checked" and name-calling, while at the same time accusing me of infantile outbursts? Go read a book.

you people who would force women to go through with the pregnancy have no idea what your talking about if you the lady doesnt want the baby or cant take acre of it then she shouldnt be forced to carry it through the full term. you idiots who say well adoption is the option not abortion are forgetting about the chemical changes that happen during pregnancy that are DESIGNED to make pregnant women want to keep thier babies wether or not they can actually take care of them.
what your asking is for the mother of the "child" whom she knows she cant take care of to go through nine months of rough pregnancy and it can be rough hours of labour which can also be rough and painful and then your going to stand there in the room and rip the baby from her arms right after it comes out from between her legs. do you have any idea how emotionally damaging that is to a person!?!?!?!
and as for murder your talking about murdering a culture of cells not yet developed enough to have actual thoughts. i aint talking about a heart beat fish have heart beats so did the cow that is now your big mac and leather seats/shoes.
no i am talking about actual thought processes, a sac of goo that is within the time limit of the term to be aborted doesnt have any such thing

Children under the age of 5 are not aware of "love", they are aware of trust and dependance. A fetus is not aware of anything. The brain does not even begin to develop until about week 20. So all that "I love you Mommy" crap doesn't even exist.
As for saying "killing a baby is the same thing". Sorry, it's not. The severe chemical changes don't occur until well into the second trimester as the body adapts to carry a larger load and the mammaries begin to work. They engage the "protect the fetus" aspect of maternity whch will develop into the "keep the offspring with you at all times". Especially in women who aren't ready for a child at the specific time, but who do want children and the women who already have other children and just don't want anymore, this expereince is utterly traumatizing.
In a childfree woman, the pregnancy itself would be embittering and traumatizing.
Would you want someone to force you to get an abortion? If the answer is no, then you have no right to force a woman to endure a pregnancy she does not want.
