Abortion: A Potential Mother’s Biggest Mistake Dr. Seuss once said: “A person's a person, no matter how small”. So far this year, nine million feticides have taken place already. Murder is an outcome from feticides, as well as amendments not followed. Babies are killed for no logical reason, which could affect women who physically cannot have a baby. Abortion should be illegal in the United States due to abortion violates the 14th amendment, abortion is murder, and abortions cause psychological damage. Abortion violates the 14th amendment and relinquish a person’s right to life. The U.S Constitution even claims against abortion as well.

“Murder is the unlawful killing of a human being with malice aforethought. Every murder perpetrated by poison, lying in wait, or any other kind of willful, deliberate, malicious, and premeditated killing; or committed in the perpetration of, or attempt to perpetrate, any arson, escape, murder, kidnapping, treason, espionage, sabotage, aggravated sexual abuse or sexual abuse, child abuse, burglary, or robbery; or perpetrated as part of a pattern or practice of assault or torture against a child or children; or perpetrated from a premeditated design unlawfully and maliciously to effect the death of any human being other than him who is killed, is murder in the first degree” (US Law). Murder is illegal in the United States. Babies inside the mother's womb are alive. So by law, that is considered murder. That being said, around 650,000 women would be charged with murder each year. The fetus can in fact feel the pain when it is getting aborted. That is sick for humans to yet still continue with abortions just because it is an inconvenience to them. Abortion kills a human being; abortion stops a beating heart; abortion at any stage of an individual’s biological development is murder” (Brown 1).

They are wrong. They may argue that Fetuses are incapable of feeling pain when most abortions are performed. According to a 2010 review by Britain's Royal College of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists, "most neuroscientists believe that the cortex is necessary for pain perception." The cortex does not become functional until at least the 26th week of a fetus' development, long after most abortions are performed”. That is false. Babies in can in fact feel pain. According to Kanwaljeet J. S. Anand, MBBS, DPhil, Professor of Pediatrics, Anesthesiology and Neurobiology at the University of Tennessee Health Science Center, "If the fetus is beyond 20 weeks of gestation, I would assume that there will be pain caused to the fetus. And I believe it will be severe and excruciating pain." The babies are being slaughtered with “excruciating pain”. Fetuses are capable of feeling pain before birth. Some other may argue that The US Supreme Court has declared abortion to be a "fundamental right" guaranteed by the US Constitution. The landmark abortion case Roe v.

The 7-2 decision stated that the Constitution gives "a guarantee of certain areas or zones of privacy," and that "This right of privacy... is broad enough to encompass a woman's decision whether or not to terminate her pregnancy" (ProCon 1). That is false. The government
