Gendercide

Gendercide mostly happens in China and India, but it can happen anywhere. Gendercide is the systematic extermination of a particular gender. In China it is used against mostly girls. In China the male is the gender that everyone wants. A couple will use illegal ultrasound equipment to find out the sex of their baby, and if it is a female fetus most of them decide to abort it. If they decide not to abort it most midwives report stillborn births. They strangle the baby with the umbilical cord as it is being delivered.
In China during 2005 a researcher found that their were 32 million more men than women under the age of 20 and in 2007 there were 37 million more males than females.Also in 2005 there were 1.1 million births of male babies.
In the total US population there is 300 million people. There are over 100 million missing girls in the US also. That is about half of the girls that are never born in China.

I know this has little to do with us over here in the United States, but it is a huge topic that needs to be addressed. It is super wrong for people to abort babies because of their sex. It isn't right and I'm sure that it happens in the US also, but it is not as common.

Abortion

Many people know what abortion is and have their own opinion. In my opinion abortion is wrong and shouldn't be aloud anywhere in the United States. Everyone knows how to obtain an abortion, but doesn't know the medical issues that come long with it. Some medical issues are as follows if an untrained individual does it the procedure damage to the uterus, and excessive bleeding. Another procedure that is commonly used is known as the "Abortion pill". The pill blocks the production of the hormone that the fetus needs to develop and survive. That is like taking food and water away from a human and expect them to live. Even though it is "just" a fetus it is still alive and having an abortion is just like murder. In my opinion a persons life begins right after conception and from that moment on you are responsible for the life you created. I believe if people don't protect themselves and create a life than they need to accept the responsibly, it is not that child's fault that they were created and they shouldn't be punished because of it.
