    What ever you think of abortion, people should have the freedom of choice IMO.

    Yes it should. Ireland needs to take itself out of the dark ages as regards this issue.

    More important question is what is the time limit? In the UK it's 24 weeks but babies have survived from 22 weeks.

    Abortion should be available but it will be a long time yet before it is.

    I think it'd be better investing money in sex education and preventative measures before allowing an abortion free for all


    *women should have the right to choose but prevention is better than cure

    "Entrails ripped from a dead virgins c**t springs to mind" or perhaps "coathanger abortion" for the more literal minded


    And hell yes it should be legal.

    Babies should have the freedom to live.

    An abortion is killing a baby. IMO this is wrong (not even in an overly religious way) and so it should not be allowed.

    However I do accept that there are some tough circumstances and I would never look down on or hold something against anyone who gets an abortion.

    Incorrect. It is no more killing a baby than it is killing a teenager.

    I dont think their popular or original.

    Give it another go, how about a dub vs culchie or whats the best city in Ireland or perhaps a public sector vs private sector thread?

    If abortion is an act of "murder" as the pro lifers call it, is having a **** an act of genocide??

    Irish politicians are a bunch of snivelling cowards. 20 years since the x case and still no legislation to reflect the judgement.

    To answer the question - I'm pro-choice.

    To hell with the woman's choice. It's not your body anymore. As soon as you become pregnant your body belongs to the baby as much as it belongs to you.

    I don't think this "pro choice" argument stands up in the same way I don't think it stands up if used to defend a mother who drinks and smoke when pregnant.

    To hell with your choice. I don't consider my opinion to be based on religious grounds in any way shape or form and I'm more "anti-choice" than I am "pro life".

    And if the baby stands no chance of survival outside the womb?

    Given I lived in the womb for nine months, I can say it was not my mother's right to have a choice to kill me.

    Well, what if the woman 'chose' to commit sucicide? Do you think this would be a better result than having the option of abortion available?

    There are always exceptions and it's never black or white and this may be one of them along with some of the circumstances that it's legal at the minute to get an abortion. Threat to mothers life and no chance of survival, up to a certain stage of pregnancy etc.

    Freely available abortion will become a form of contraception to the fcuking idiots that don't use contraception.
