Roe V. Wade
What is Roe V. Wade rights? The Roe V. Wade law was put into action during 1973 in the United Stated of America, to allow women a safe way to get abortions. This law has been known nationwide for almost half a century. Unfortunately, now laws are being passed to take away women’s safe rights to have abortions.
Many states in America have passed the law where abortion is now illegal, causing it to be very difficult for women to proceed with this. Abortions are not a decision that is taken lightly, it takes a lot of thought and support from loved ones.
Reasons Why Women May Get Abortions
While every women is different and all have their different reasons to get an abortion when the time comes. There are many specific reasons why this choice has been made. So many women struggle with medical issues that may make it hard for their body to support pregnancy.
As upsetting as it is, it happens and pregnancy could harm a women’s body very seriously in many different ways. Being pregnant could also kill some women, depending on what happens to their body during the beginning of the pregnancy. Furthermore, some women’s bodies just can’t handle it.
However, this is not the only reason why many women become in need of an abortion. Many women all across the world are forced into things and the pregnancy is very unwanted. Which is not very fair to the women.
Women are not Getting the Protection They Need
Women all across the world are being raped and try their best to speak out about it. Sadly, people don’t always listen and the rapist gets away with their actions. There are so many actions that need to be taken when a women is in this situation, and it becomes way more stressful than it already was.
In many cases, during the process of taking actions towards taking the rapist to court. It can become clear that the odds are not in your favor. Because the system is corrupt and does not give fair chances or does not focus on the right cases.
More Human Rights Being Taken
The LGBTQ community are people too they also have feelings, they should have fair rights. Disgustingly, lot of people and some of the lawmakers in the U.S. don’t seem to think that LGBTQ as a community needs fair rights. With this, many of the choices the government has made has caused a lot of uproar and protests against the decisions. As well as, there being a ton of protests siding with the lawmakers choices.
Kids that are a part of the LGBTQ community being bullied and not included in things at school and public places, that they once may have been. People at work being discriminated because of who they like or how they dress. These people not having many to stand up for them, lots feel alone and at a loss of what to do.
Many parents are not supportive of their kids making choices to make themselves comfortable. Furthermore, these parents go to the protests siding against their own kids, and making them feel unloved or unsafe.
Safe Options Being Taken for Many
All around the U.S. women and LGBTQ people are having their safe medical options taken away. They are having their lives torn apart because people don’t think they are human due to them being different. Women are being arrested for doing what is best for their body. Men are getting the chance to speak for women like they know what it is like.
In so many ways, the U.S. today is slowly starting to become the 1950’s where women don’t have rights and being treated like nothing. Humans being treated like they aren’t human, and like they have no feelings.
Be a part of the right change, not the one that harms humans wrongfully and take away a person’s right to make decisions over their own body.
