Abortion is Murder A common issue in todays society is abortion. This awful crime has existed since 1973. Susan Milligan has addressed a common argument on this topic, human rights. In her article, Is Abortion a Human Right? Ann Scheidler says,“The notion of human rights has been terribly twisted in the Northern Ireland case, ignoring the (human) rights of the child to be.” The fetus is a human and should have human rights. The mother should have rights to, but that doesn’t mean murder is ok. Yes, murder. Abortion is murder. According to Susan Milligan, in some places, such as Britain, abortion is legal up to 28 weeks, or seven months. At seven months, a baby in the womb begins to develop fat and weighs from two to four pounds.
