The Abortion Debate Summary

297 Words2 Pages
The article about the abortion debate refers to how an anonymous spy spied on Planned Parenthood. The article shows how the spy set up his operation to get information against abortion clinics and Planned Parenthood. The spy known as David Daleiden set up a fake organization and company. Daleiden then hired actors to act as his assistance: he provided fake ids launched a website and made business cards. Not only did he do all of this but he had papers on file at the secretary of state’s office. I do not agree with Daleiden’s approach to unravel facts about the abortion problem. The fact that he leaked countless illegal videos is crazy that he is not in jail. The videos had information that he should have not known. I believe he should be in

After Roe v. Wade in 1973 people became more aware of abortions in a general term. At the time only therapeutic abortions were allowed, but after Roe v. Wade elective abortions were no longer against the law. Although elective abortions were now legal there were still certain restrictions. The biggest restriction was what time frame a woman could have an abortion. This time frame was determined using the stages of pregnancy based on religion and science.

There have been many legal cases dealing with abortion and the laws restricting it. Some of those cases are: Gonzalez v. Carhart and Whole Woman’s Health Care, Planned Parenthood v. Casey, and Roe v. Wade. Roe v. Wade was an abortion case held in 1973 that was tried because of the abortion laws and the requirements to get one. Roe claimed that the laws violated her constitutional rights. The Law at that time was that you could only get an abortion if your life was in danger, Roe said although her life was not in danger that she should not afford the expenses of traveling out of state for the abortion.

Rough Draft As human beings, it is forbidden to kill or murder people. Why should killing an innocent new soul be okay or outright legal? Every legal surgical abortion stops a beating heart and terminates a life. Killing a fetus that has a soul ready to live is morally wrong!

In recent months, a series of undercover sting videos have been released by the anti-abortion group, Center for Medical Progress. These videos show Planned Parenthood officials talking to members of the Center for Medical Progress, who are posing as biomedical company representatives. In these videos, the two parties discuss the sales and harvesting of fetal tissue and organs after performing abortions. In the series of videos, senior director Deborah Nucatola and a Planned Parenthood executive were taped discussing the process for aborting fetuses, preserving organs (liver, heart, lungs, head), and joking about payment for fetal tissue in the form of a Lamborghini.

They talked about seven lies pro-choicers believe but are morally incorrect. For example, pro-abortionist believe abortions are needed to prevent overpopulation. When in reality, America and many other countries are below the replacement rate needed to have a steady population. They provided evidence of doctors that confirm their argument that human life begins at the beginning of conception. This source is most valuable for my essay because it helped me understand the views of pro-life.

Opposing Viewpoints Online Collection states that, "an abortion is a medical or surgical procedure that ends a pregnancy." When it comes to abortion, the aspect that interests me is the fact that it is a tremendously controversial topic. I first learned about abortions in high school. I vaguely remember my teacher giving a lecture on the history and effects of abortions in the State of Texas, and asking the class to consider how we felt based on facts from the book and other 's opinions. From then on, I have developed my own viewpoints pertaining to abortion.

It seems pretty straight forward, but the scientist was recorded by an abortion activist posing as a scientist. Following after, ten other videos were released. After the release of those videos, Planned Parenthood was thrown into the battle of abortion. (Brandhorst and Jennings 2016)

In “A Defense of Abortion,” Judith Jarvis Thomson maintains that there are instances where an unplanned pregnancy can occur, but it does not give the fetus the right to inhabit a woman’s body due to her simply having had sex. In this paper, I will address her argument using the creative analogy that this is akin to an open window as an invitation to an unwanted intruder, and argue how it falls short of the mark because of the responsibility attached as the consequence of one’s actions. Thomson compares having voluntary intercourse to having a window open to air out a stuffy room. In the first scenario, an unwanted intruder invades your body. In the second scenario, an unwanted intruder invades your home.

Life used to be a miracle; a high-esteemed gift that was respected. Today, life is nothing more than an inconvenience; a discomfort; a nuisance. Over one million lives are stolen from innocent human beings in the United States each year (“U.S. Abortion Statistics.”). This is not caused by car accidents or suicides. This mortality rate is the result of the murdering of innocent children.

In recent news, an anti-abortion group known as Center for Medical Progress, hired actors to portray as buyers for a company that purchases fetal tissues for research. They have recently released online, a secretly recorded video of Planned Parenthood workers discussing how the organization is selling fetal organs and tissues for a profit. They secretly recorded lunches with Parenthood executives and and their trips to the Parenthood Clinics in Texas and Colorado. The video that was obtained was close to being three hours long, and after editing it became an eight minute video. My view on this is, the video was edited not to reveal the truth of the meeting but to make false accusations for a political agenda.

This article is about the UK’s abortion providers having anti-abortion protestors surrounding their buildings protesting against abortion (Forbes). Some of these protestors were even getting aggressive to the patients leaving the building even if they had a kid with them and its quoted in the article that “Women felt it was an invasion of healthcare privacy” (Forbes). The article also mentions how the women didn’t care who was outside the building like what group or anything it was the presence that bothered them so much (Forbes). This is true for myself too because when I go to planned parenthood to get my birth control I have been harassed mostly by men protesting and had one knock on my car, which I threatened to call the police and

Abortion has been a long argued issue. Everyone has their own opinions on the topic. There has even been Supreme Court cases over the issue of abortion rights. Some say women should have the right to decide if they want a child or not; others believe that life should not be taken away before it even starts. In my opinion abortion is wrong and should not be legalized.

I chose the topic of abortion for my paper. Abortion is the legal, surgical procedure of ending a pregnancy. I chose this topic because though it is a heated, controversial, and commonly emotional topic, I think it is an important topic to discuss. I pride myself on being an open-minded, and adaptable person. So, though I am able to understand and empathize with arguments for both sides of the issue, I personally, am anti- abortion (based on the exclusion of pregnancies involving rape, incest, or when a mother’s life is in danger).

You mentioned that mostly half of women of color received all the legal abortions. I just want to add some statistic that Davis explains on her article. During several years preceding the decriminalization of abortions in New York state, 80% of the illegal abortions were involved Black and Puerto Rican women. Also, just you said, immediately afterward, women of color received about 50% of the legal abortions. This is not because they have more freedom or reproductive rights than the white women, but it rather shows how miserable living and working condition they were in.
