Dr. Seuss once said, “A person is a person, no matter how small”. Abortion is a topic of debate across the world, and almost everyone has very strong feelings about it one way or the other. This topic raises hard to answer questions such as: when does life begin? At conception? At birth? Somewhere in between? It’s a difficult question to answer, but many have tried to define a line.

Wright that corporal punishment could not be considered “cruel and unusual punishment” as punishment in schools were not the same as criminal punishment (Ingraham v. Wright). It is ultimately left up to the states whether or not to…

The fetus, just like a human, has all the functioning organs it needs to have to be considered a human and needs to have the right of life. "Blood, tissue, and tiny organs were pulled out of their environment into a filter" (Terzo 1). Based on the information acquired, abortion should be illegal because abortion is murder, Norma (Roe) lied in court to take part in the legalization of abortion, the fetus is a human and has the right to be born, there are health complications towards the mother…
