Persuasive Speech On Abortion

From 1973 to 2003 around 1 million abortions have been performed in the U.S alone and after the Roe vs. Wade case was found in favor in Roe which has led to a large controversy over whether or not an abortion kills a person. Today I will not argue over which side is right or wrong, but show you the facts and ethics of an abortion, and leave you the listener to choose whether or not to believe and act upon these truths. First the argument over abortion is not about women's right. Many people associate abortion with women's right but this is not the case. The argument for or against abortion lies in whether or not an abortion murders a person. Now with that context set we must now look to see first whether something is being killed and the answer is yes. Any Biomedical scientist will tell you that a unborn babies cell is different from that of her mother and if an unborn baby were part of her mother the cells of the baby would match that of her mother but it has been scientifically proven as a fact that a unborn baby is composed of entirely different cells than her mother. This meaning that the baby is an entirely different organism. Also we know something is being killed because the unborn baby has different cells meaning a entirely different organism is killed during the abortion process. Now we know that a unborn baby is not part of the mother and that something in the least is being killed. Now that it is settled that something is being killed with each

- The overwhelming majority of abortion clinic—88%—experienced at least one form of harassment in 2008. 87% reported picketing, 42% were picketing with patient blocking, and 21% cited incidents of vandalism. And more shockingly, nearly one-fifth of all of the largest abortion facilities reported a bomb threat. (Jones, 2011)

Specific Purpose: I want to argue that abortions is wrong and as humans it is our duty to stop it.

Writing for publication was presented as a newspaper article. The chosen theme was a real-estate article. Bold headings to grab the eye of the reader were used, same as big and clear images. The article was presented in three different columns. Writing for a visual prompt was presented in two peoples perspectives. The story consisted of a daughter (Deb) and mother’s perspective after the death of her father. The purpose of this layout is to show how they are both grieving in individual ways. Writing for the persuasive was presented as an essay on why abortion should be accessible in every country, and to also outline the shame women receive.

My days are rarely empty and I definitely don’t get enough sleep, but I imagine that won’t change. I have school Monday through Friday and practice after school usually. Sometimes there isn’t space in the gym or it matters what season it is so we might have it in the morning. Though I have decided to not play basketball this school year, I am still busy. My regular school sports include soccer, softball, volleyball, and track. I have recently joined a club volleyball team and have a couple practices every week with tournaments starting soon.

Whether you were at work, sitting at home watching TV, or not even born yet, there are many crazy things that happened in the year 1996 that you have never heard about. I was born on December 20, 1996 in Miles City, Montana. This means that while most of these crazy events were taking place, I was not even born yet. A few things that happened in 1996 include the vetoing of the ban on a procedure for late abortions, the Unabomber being captured and arrested, and South Africa receiving a new constitution.

Hillary Clinton ever said, “We’re always going to argue about abortion. It’s a hard choice and it’s controversial, and that’s why I’m pro-choice, because I want people to make their own choices.” Yet, abortion is a truly heated arguable topic between proabortionists and antiabortionists. There are many reasons, tears, arguments, thoughts, and sins behind an abortion story. As a female, I have a privilege to give birth to a “fetus” and to be a mother, and so this particular topic really touched me.. Whether abortion is a woman’s right or a crime, it depends on how liberal or conservative each individual’s view is. Therefore, I want to explore more about this topic, not to prove that ones right nor others wrong, but to give more deep and thoughtful informations for everybody, not just women about abortion.

There is a threat going on right now against women’s rights that many people might not know about. Women need to take charge and not let another day of a pregnancy go by where there is not a choice available to end things that might have happened accidentally, so the life of the woman can stay happy, healthy, and moving towards a life that the woman desires. The threat that clearly needs brought to attention is one involving abortions. The government, and to clarify more specifically the House of Representatives, has begun to pass a bill that will limit the time frame that women can receive a safe abortion. This bill passed through the House already and is more correctly called the Pain-Capable Unborn Child Protection Act (Unites States).

Abortion is a huge concern for the women of the United States. But, if one sees the right to a woman's body by the restriction of abortion, the torment to the unwanted child, and the anguish effect it has to a woman, then the concern would be educated to where they know the side effects of abortion.

Abortion has been one of the biggest controversies of all time. Many people believe it is immoral and even consider it to be murder. The definition of abortion is; “The termination of pregnancy by the removal or expulsion from the uterus of a fetus or embryo prior to being capable of normal growth.” 1 These pro-life believers do not support the idea of induced abortion and believe it should be illegal. Many of these supporters do not know that if abortion were illegal they would still be performed, unfortunately by an uneducated staffs. Over 70 thousand maternal deaths occur every year because of unsafe abortions1. These women die, so the idea of supporting pro-life is contradictory, this is why the nation should be pro-choice.

“And if we accept that a mother can kill even her own child, how can we tell other people not to kill one another?” a famous quote by Mother Teresa. Abortion is most definitely murder. If someone murders a pregnant woman and both her and the baby dies then it is considered a double homicide. This shows the unborn baby in the womb is legally classified as a life. Ronald Reagan said, “I’ve noticed that everyone who is for abortion has already been born.” I strongly believe this statement to be true. Many people don’t think twice about aborting a baby they just don’t want their lifestyle to be hindered so without really thinking about the pain and suffering that baby is going to go through they decide to end its life. In a short abortion documentary video Jim Boyd, a member of the Florida House of Representatives, asked Alisa LaPolt Snow from Planned Parenthood if a baby is born on a table as a result of a botched abortion what Planned Parenthood would want to happen to that child whom is struggling for life.

In addition to fetus’s not being a life, another stance is that there should be no regulations on when a woman can get an abortion because as a society we should assume the best of women. It should be assumed that women who choose to have an abortion do it for the right reasons, and are not deciding to have an abortion just because they can. However not all women choose to have an abortion for the right reason, but ultimately it is their decision. Everyone should be allowed to choose what they want to do with their bodies. The women who have abortions for the wrong reasons such as spite, should not influence the overall decision of if women should be allowed to have an abortion. In a similar context, after the terrorist attack on September 11th, 2001, many people decided to categorize all muslims as terrorists based on the fact that the attacker was of the same religion. But just because one woman has an abortion for the wrong reason does not mean all women will, which is why there should be no regulations since every circumstance varies.

1.) In America today half of the women do not intentionally mean to get pregnant and four our of 10 result in abortion.1

Specific Purpose: To persuade the audience to chose life Abortion is when a mother decides to terminate her pregnancy. Many people have different opinions about this ethical and moral issue. Some people think that abortion is okay, while others believe that it is inhumane and against their moral and/or religious beliefs. (Advance Slide)
