The War Over Abortion
One of the most debated topics in the history of American politics is the issue of abortion. There are many issues that are brought forth when arguing over the topic of abortion. In 1973, there was a Supreme Court decision, Roe vs. Wade that ruled that abortion was to be legalized. There have been many controversies over whether this ruling was moral and ethical. This brings up many questions that need to be answered. I feel that there are two major questions that need to be answered. Whether abortion should be legal and if so, under what circumstances?
