Abortion has proved to be one of the most debatable subjects of controversy in the United States. ... There are many points of view toward abortion, but the only two fine distinctions are “pro-choice” and “pro-life”. ... A pro-life person would argue that the fetus or embryo is alive from the moment of conception and that the state has a right to decide whether or not an abortion is or is not the proper course of action. Abortion is necessary for women to have control over their own bodies and lives. ... On January 22, 1973, the Supreme Court voted for the right to privacy, which included the rights of a woman to go through the procedure of an abortion. ... Wade decision recognized abortion as an essential constitutional right and legalized it in all states. The law now permits abortion at the request of the woman, without any restrictions in the first trimester and limited restrictions in the second. Some states however, still withhold full abortion rights to women. Withholding these rights from a woman automatically gives them to the potential person inside of her. Although a potential person does deserve full human rights, if its existence interferes with the rights of the mother, than she, being an already existing and conscious human being, deserves to make her own decision.
