Abortion

To tell you the truth, I am always jumping back and forth to both sides about having abortion should be illegal or legal. Whenever I think about abortion should be illegal, I know that adoption is a good choice but there is a chance that not a lot of children get adopted. It will be good for child to grow up in environment with two parents and a stable home rather than a single parent. There is a chance a single parent can raise a child as good as a child grow up with two parent.

I feel that life begins at conception. There is something growing in a woman and the fetus will develop into a human being. It is a part of you. A fetus can develop into a baby and I don’t think I can end kill a fetus because it count as a cute little baby.

I think that if something has a heart beat they can count as human being. During the second month of the pregnancy, the baby starts to take more of a human form, the head grows, facial features start to form, hands and feet start to develop and its muscles begin to grow. By the end of the second month a heartbeat can be picked up.

On the other hand, if abortion would legal, that would help someone, who is raped. It is better for them not to be reminding them what happened that day. If someone, who was just being careless and stupid and ended up getting pregnant, I feel that they have the right to have an abortion because what if they are not capable of raising a baby? Would the baby safe and have a good life? I don’t think someone, who is careless and stupid and ended up getting pregnant is not capable to support a baby.

They could put the baby up for adoption but I think it would be a good benefit for the child not to go through adoption because what if the adopted parents don’t want the child or for some other reasons and the child have to go back to the adoption agency. The child might grow up into an adult without being adopted and growing up at the agency. The child might grow up with some emotional problems. I know I am going against what I said earlier, but anything could happen to the baby. We can’t predict what going to happen or how the baby will be affected, if the baby is adopted or not. I don’t think I can ever choose, but I think that in the end it is all up to the woman. It’s their choice.

Why Should We Care?

On a blog called "Gay Marriage", Toohey makes a great point on how he is “against gay marriage.” He makes a good argument on how "when you get married in one state, you may not be considered married in the other." Do couples really need to be approved to be married in every state? In my opinion I think it good at least one states says that you are married. He back it up that it goes against Article IV, Section 1 of the U.S. Constitution. Each state made their choice on making gay marriage illegal or legal is their decision and their thought on what is best for their state.

I love how he respected that other states law when he not for gay marriage. For examples, “If you are married in another state allowing gay marriage, you are married (no matter how against it I am).” He looks at both side of argument on gay marriage. He stated that he “believe that the gay community is one of the nicest, most "green," and peaceful communities of this world.” He made it clear that he doesn’t like “the choice (or lifestyle if you prefer) that [he] disagree with.” I think it is our opinion if we are against or for it and we can't change it. We can't change a person's mind on getting married to the same gender.

It doesn‘t “needs to stay between a man and a women.” Who set that rule and who told everybody to follow it? Can it be between two men or two women? Society does not make that choice for the people. Not everybody have to think like that. We can’t tell everybody how to feel and tell them who to marry. If two people love each other so much and want to get marry. Does it matter that it is between to same gender or the opposite gender.

I agreed with him when he says; “If a law is passed giving the rights to gay marriage, then there is not much to argue (unless you are looking to still ban it).” I think we should “respect our Constitution and all the laws it gives” and let the people live their life and stop telling them what they can do or not. It is not going to obstruct our lives.
