A few opinions include that it’s considered murder because it has a heartbeat. Another opinion is that if you get raped that abortion is kind of the only route to go but if your being careless that its your fault and should suffer the consequences. In this debate I am going to explain why abortion should be pro-life instead of Pro-choice.

Planned Parenthood performs over 900 abortions a day. 900. That’s over 300,000 a year and that is only Planned Parenthood. This is over a quarter of a million babies that are killed and sucked out of a woman's body. In which over half of abortions are performed on women under the age of 25.

    Pro Choice vs. Pro Life There are many reasons on both sides of this issue of why people believe it is or is not okay to have an abortion. Many believe that it is a woman’s right to choose to end her pregnancy or not. The U.S. Supreme Court has declared that it is a right guaranteed by the Constitution.

Pro Choice gives women the right to decide if having a child is right for her, and that choice does not end the moment she becomes pregnant.…
