I am not for abortion. I do however recognize that it is not my body or me that will have to live with what is often a 2 minute mistake for the rest of my life and very much support a women's right to choose.
I do not pretend to know when life begins. I do know that raising a child to adulthood or having to put a child up for adoption is an extremely severe punishment for the crime of giving in to passion.
I do feel that late term abortons are wrong and should be disallowed. If the embryo can live outside the womb without life support, then that is too late for an abortion. Imo of course.
I am very much against the death penalty. I feel very strongly that if even one innocent person dies then the system is wrong.
Life imprisonment is a much harsher penalty (albight much more finacially expensive) than the death penalty and it affords a person the time to prove their innocence.
