Abortion

Abortion Abortion is a controversial issue that was thought to have been settled in 1973 with the Roe vs. Wade decision. This Supreme Court decision essentially legalized abortion through the 28th week of gestation.

This was something that Planned Parenthood Founder, Margaret Sanger, fought for since the early 1900's and her organization eventually took the abortion message worldwide.

However the abortion debate has continued with multiple cases reaching the desk of the Supreme Court with some expansion in abortion while other areas of the procedure were restricted.

Life advocates view abortion as the termination of a life that has no reasonable choice in the decision to abort.

Women who have terminated a pregnancy are often traumatized by the experience. Some refuse to talk about their abortion and will often mark the anniversary of the day they aborted.

Abortion is a topic of great debate with strong emotional connections.
