In this article, the author talks about abortion and how the last clinic standing is not going down without a fight. Abortion to me is something I believe we should keep because every women is entitled to make their own choice in life. There shouldn’t be a person to tell a women what they can or cannot do with their body. In my opinion some people make mistakes or maybe it was terrible timing, but things do happen. I would rather have the option for someone to go to a clinic rather than hurting themselves for trying to do it with no help. In Kentucky there are groups of people standing outside an abortion clinic for it not to shut down. “The only abortion clinic still standing is the EMW Women 's Surgical Center in Louisville - co-founded by Wells in 1981. But the state is threatening to shut it down, claiming deficiencies in its licensing paperwork” (Holly). Once the clinic shuts down Kentucky would office be the first state with no abortion clinic. …show more content…
Their are people there with signs, and posters that say “Murder in the first degree” or “Honey, change your mind. Darling, you don 't want to do this" and many more. A man that is one of the people who is holding the sign drives three hours just to be there everyday. He said that he does not mind waking up at three in the morning just to stand there all day because it’s making a difference. "There were five abortion mills in Kentucky when we started back in the early '90s. And now the Lord has answered -- this is the last remaining abortion mill, not only in Louisville, but also in Kentucky," Street says (Holly). Many people in Kentucky are super excited to see it shut down and to them finally not having a place where they can murdered
The issue at hand is that after 40 years after the U.S. Supreme court made a ruling in the case of Roe vs. Wade, politicians in some states are trying their best to ban the law that secures a woman’s right to terminate a pregnancy if she chooses to. In other states, lawmakers are trying to do whatever they can to see that abortion clinics close their doors for good. Making decisions that would stop Medicare from funding an abortion could put a woman at risk if they are pregnant because they would go to extreme measures to give their self an abortion if they do not wish to keep their baby. These clinics offer, more than just an option to get an abortion, state officials would rather see them shut down than to service women in need of other things
In 2017, abortion is still a sore subject for many Americans. The thing many people do not realize, is that in more cases than not, an abortion is the last resort. Often, it is something mothers flee to in a time of desperation and pain. Frederica Mathews-Green said, “No woman wants an abortion as she wants an ice cream cone or a Porsche. She wants an abortion as an animal caught in a trap wants to gnaw off its own leg.”
The strike down was proof their hard work could lead to change and has been used as a motivator for the rest of their efforts and protests. Additionally, with the rise of pro-choice activists, anti-abortionists actively fought back against the decision and sought to re-criminalize abortions. Their actions have not been successful since the strike down legally, but their efforts to stop abortions has largely contributed to the stigma surrounding them. Since 1988 there has consistently been protests and rallies actively fighting for re-criminalization, many of them being large scale and historically monumental.
Despite the beneficial projects Planned Parenthood has participated in, riots have broken out against the facility. According to The Daily Signal, “Students for Life of America organized ‘Women Betrayed’ rallies nationwide to protest taxpayer funding for the nation’s largest abortion provider” (Scanlon). The protests could eventually lead to a decrease in funding for Planned Parenthood. The riots do not only affect the business, they also affect the patients. On June 28, 2014, a six-hour, non-violent protest broke out in front of the Boston Planned Parenthood.
Some people believe that planned parenthood should be shutdown. The main reason is because people believe that abortions are equivalent to the murder of an innocent child. Although people have their disagreements on whether or not planned parenthood should be shutdown, I believe that it is essential to women who need checkups for a low price, need condoms, birth control or abortions. Planned parent hood provides important health checkups such as cancer screening. In poor areas, planned parenthood is the only organization that allows women without health insurance to have checkups.
In the article, “The Abortion Clinic Across the Street”, Kathryn Joyce accounts these “sidewalk consolers” and the tactics they use to enforce reproductive oppression. Some of the strategies the “sidewalk consolers” use are, “Providing misleading information about women pregnancy status or due date, or suggest unproven links between abortion and cancer, infertility and suicide” (Joyce 427). This misinformation may make pregnant women feel that they have no choice but to have the baby. A reproductive justice framework works to relieve these feelings. Planned Parenthood offers support and services to help with an unwanted pregnancy as well as medically accurate information about the results of receiving an abortion.
It is that woman’s individual right to do whatever she wants with her body. To put a woman through even more years of pain just because she's pregnant makes you selfish because you don't know what got them in that situation in the first place. Women don’t deserve to be put down because of the choices they make. I don't think the issue here is abortion, i think it's
This brought about “back-alley abortions” which was just another way of saying illegal abortions. At one point in time there were up to 1.2 million of these abortions happening

Breanna Ramirez Mr.Pantoja, Mrs.Ryglicki English 4 11 May 2016 Abortion: Is it Right or Wrong? How would you feel if someone wanted take your life? Imagine the feeling of having a mother that does not want you even before you are born. In 1821 Connecticut was the first state to pass the abortion law in the United States.
Before Roe v. wade the number of deaths from illegal abortions was around 5000 and in the 50s and 60s the number of illegal abortions ranged from 200,000 to 1.2 million per year. These illegal abortions pose major health risks to the life of the woman including damage to the bladder, intestines as well as rupturing of the uterus. The choice to become a mother must be given to the woman most importantly because it’s her body, her health, and she will be taking on a great responsibility. A woman’s choice to choose abortion should not be restricted by anyone; there are multiple reasons why abortion will be the more sensible decision for the female.

They think it is the invasion of the rights of women. This group wants abortion to remain legal and accessible as they think that everyone has a right to choose whether they want to keep the baby or kill
There should always be the options for whether they want to have baby or not. So, I will stand for women’s right of legal abortion and support it during my office period. I believe local business are the true backbone of that particular society or community. So, local business should be given more priority over other outer big business. Local independent business will help to build the economy of that community and they should not be in the shadow of big business corporations.
