I was pro-choice until I gave birth to my son at 20 weeks and 4 days. He lived for 2 hours, and he was a person. And my stance on abortion changed. I still fully believe in abortion for rape and incest (immediately after it happens...not months and months later), or to save the life of the mother. However, the fact that 92.5% of the one million abortions performed in America every year involve none of those things is sickening to me. This is the 21st century. There are countless forms of birth control and the morning after pill. Most abortions are simply an easy out for taking responsibility for a decision that you, as a woman, made, fully knowledgeable of the possible consequences..

That's just my opinion. I enjoyed reading your viewpoint though.
