abortion case

Hello Ladies and Gentleman!

This is again the group of civil liberties. The second question we are feeling to ask to the republican candidates is about abourtion.  The questoin is for Mr.Senator. Brownback.

As always we start by defining abortion:

An abortion is the removal or expulsion of an embryo or fetus from the uterus, resulting in or caused by its death. This can occur spontaneously as a miscarriage, or be artificially induced by chemical, surgical or other means. “Abortion” can refer to an induced procedure at any point during human pregnancy; it is sometimes medically defined as either miscarriage or induced termination before the point of viability.[1] Throughout history, abortion has been induced by various methods. The moral and legal aspects of abortion are subject to intense debate in many parts of the world.

We cansider this as one of the greates problem world is facing as it is a debate that has to do with the basic human rights. Some evidences and facts about abortion are :

In 2002, 1.29 million abortions took place, down from 1.36 million in 1996. From 1973 through 2002, more than 42 million legal abortions occurred.[3]

Each year, two out of every 100 women aged 15–44 have an abortion; 48% of them have had at least one previous abortion.[4]

Fifty-two percent of U.S. women obtaining abortions are younger than 25: Women aged 20–24 obtain 33% of all abortions, and teenagers obtain 19%.[6

Over 60% of abortions are among women who have had one or more children.[10]

We can keep giving statistics but the point is not there. The only things that statistics say is how serios this problem is. The question we want to build is how to find a solutin to this problem.

For every idea and thought about this topic is welcome to this blog.

Thank you very much

    What exactly are you implying the problem to be? Personally, it’s crazy to think of 42 million potential people not given the chance to live. That presents a sad problem in my mind. But what problem are you facing?
