America has some of the most liberal abortion laws in the world. However, ever since it became legal in 1973 Abortion has been one of the most hotly contested topics in both American day to day life and American politics. Pro-choice, Pro-life everybody seems to have an opinion and some people are not afraid to use violence against those who disagree with them.
In a country where feelings are strong it seems to be impossible for those on either side of the fence to sit down and have a rational debate on the issue
, sadly the unborn fetus at the center of the dispute and most affected by the debate is unable to speak up.
We do not wish to address the difficult questions of pregnancies which result from rape or incest – these should form a separate category and be considered on their own merits. With that in mind and in an attempt to bring rational discussion to this issue we have listed our top 10 reasons why abortion is wrong and should be illegal.
