The ugly truth

The pro-choice crowd decries common-sense limits on abortion. They say that any limit will harm women. But the fallacy is that very few abortions are performed for the "health of the mother." They are performed for convenience.

Abortion For Convenience

That sounds so harsh. So cold. So selfish and heartless.

That's because it is.

When a woman goes to an abortion clinic that will kill her unborn child so that she can finish school, then it is for her convenience. When she consents to the killing of her unborn child because she realizes that the father is not the man she wants in her life for the next two decades, then it is for her convenience. When she pays someone to kill her unborn child because she "isn't ready to raise a child," then it is for her convenience.

It is not for her health.
It is not because she was impregnated by a rapist or as a result of incest.

It is because she cares more about herself than she does about the life she is ending.
