Changes

Abortion has been an issue for a long while, though historians and anthropoligists rarely write about it.  Yet, if abortion became illegal in every country on Earth, with the most severe, harshest penalties imaginable, abortions would still happen.  Women who really didn't want to carry to term would find a way.  Medically trained people would perform black market sorts of abortions here and there.  It is a human issue, an emotional issue.  Our grandmothers knew this and their grandmothers.  Today's modern medicine allows safe (for the mother) abortion in most cases.  Today's law proposes that the decision might not reside in the realm of the mother, but could be mandated, to the benefit of society.  Let us not fool ourselves, abortion might be illegal but abortion happens anyway.  Who can legally try a woman for falling down stairs or falling against the edge of a table?  The article does not, at this time, confront the real reasons why abortion is an issue (my opinion).
