Framing Abortion

June 19, 2007 by Adrienne

I think that Elyzabethe and I need to co-author an article examining the different frames around abortion from pro-life and pro-choice perspectives.

What choices are abortionists offering? I only see one…death to a little baby. The “Pro-choice” movement is misnamed because they offer no choices for woman, only abortion. Calling “Pro-life people anti-choice is a total lie. When a woman walks into a pregnancy counceling center, she will get counseling and many choices to choose from. When a woman walks into an abortion clinic, there are no choices. She leaves a dead baby behind.

Don’t worry Mom. I’m still as pro-life as ever. I just hate the rash emotions that exist on both side. Yes Planned Parenthood and other pro-choice organizations are manipulative and rarely offer women alternative choices such as adoption. The issue is so convoluted by propaganda from both sides, that we forget that an innocent life is really the key point. There are too many petty opinions about “choice” and “privacy” that disguise the real issue.

I just want to cut the emotion and legal issues and get to the real heart of the matter. Abortion kills a life. The question remains is that morally acceptable or not? By framing the issue as choice or privacy, the pro-choice crowd can ignore that sticky factor.
