this is what i wanted

Finally, somebody who has something to say! I appreciate your comments and I love ones like this that actually make sense. This is a very good argument. I don't deny these things. If I like a comment, I will post it.

Although I understand your view point in being pro-life because of a religious stand point, I do believe you are failing to look at the potential social problems of banning abortion. Banning abortion will not work. Instead it will cause people to resort to desperate majors (coat hanger abortions, abortions in Mexico) causing more health problems for women and not just killing the fetus but potentially the women as well due to unsafe medical procedures. Look at history it already happened. Another potential social problem that could come about is crime rates will most likely increase. Studies have shown that unwanted children are more prone to become troubled adolence who are prone to drug use and crime. When abortion was legalized in 1970 the crime began to go down. In countries where abortion was banned crime rates went up. Although I agree with the idea that that all women have plenty of solutions; the facts are condoms break; pills can be mistaken or unresponsive in some people. Abortion is a sure way when other methods fail. Adoption is great point to bring up. Have you looked at the success rates of the adopted child in today’s world because the odds are against them. The one’s that succeed are lucky. Adoptee’s trauma begins the moment their separated from their mother. (Verrier, 1993) This trauma is subconscious but still exists. Many adopted children develop shame and doubt at as little of 13 months to 3 years old believing that who they are is bad. As they get older many adoptive children tend to try acting out what they believe their biological parents maybe like trying drugs and getting involved promiscuous behavior. I’ve seen it happen with my own friend who is adopted along with looking at the psychological research. I recommend you read Freaknomics and look at the long term physical and psychological affects that this would cause our nation. I recommend that you look at the social burden you’re putting on these unwanted children by putting them in foster care and allowing them to know for the rest of their lives that they weren’t wanted. I hope you understand that by banning abortion you’ll be increasing the death toll by not only killing fetuses but their mothers as well. And perhaps they deserve this but I do believe that is up to us only God has the only right to judge. "Do not judge, or you too will be judged. For in the same way you judge others, you will be judged, and with the measure you use, it will be measured to you."- Matthew 7: 12.

Once again, Very nice.

And anonymous, as to the end of your comment... and this is for everybody else as well:

If you don't appreciate my writing, don't read it! It's as simple as that. I like to write, so therefore I do it. I am a sarcastic person when I write and if you don't like it, then, well, I'm quite sorry.

Anybody who writes blogs knows that not everybody is going to agree with them, but the point is that they are writing and they aren't afraid to get their stuff out there.
