Proposal on Abortion

It is saddening to see humans of the female gender, who find themselves in a situation that requires introducing a new life into the world; to abort such a precious gift. Many may wonder how these poor, innocent, unborn children are then discarded after the abortion procedure. One cannot fathom the reason of these gruesome murders that happens within these medical facilities. Babies are disposed in the red waste bins of these facilities, and later incinerated. Some may either be flushed down garbage disposals or even be sold off for research purposes. The issue of abortion is not just a social one, but also a human rights issue among the unborn children.

The CDC (centers for disease control and prevention) reported 1,292,606 abortions in 1980. The number count continued by millions until the year 2000. Rates began to decrease, but the numbers still remained high. 2009 is the year CDC has recently given reports on the statistics of abortion in the United States.

I have made my two proposed ideas on this topic. A heartfelt issue that roams across America today, should be ceased in every way possible. For I hear the cries of the babies who cannot speak. The women who later turn their backs after the murder of their own children. My voice is the voice of the children. If one cannot speak for them, I should stand and take part. I brought attention to this issue, and hope that those who are involved in such ruthless act should change their ways and help a child. For the guilt may come pouring on your souls and never again will you be the same.
