Crouched in the fetal position, a young mother of two lies naked on the cold ceramic tiles of a motel bathroom, drenched in her own blood. ... An illegal abortion performed by an unqualified abortionist. ...
She is one of thousands of victims who has suffered under a system that once denied legal abortions, believing that religion and law condemned such practices. However, abortion serves as a womans fundamental right to sexual freedom and equality, and is theoretically an acceptable procedure by both the church and state. ... In the last quarter century, Supreme Court rulings have recognized that it is a woman’s fundamental right to have sex for pleasure rather then procreation, as exemplified through the legalization of birth control and abortion. ... Thus, abortion allows such control. ...
