   I wasn't aware that morality was the basis for whether or not a right was   
   recognized.   
      
   As for whether the right to have an abortion is wrong, I wouldn't know. I   
   do know, however, that reversing that decision would allow someone to have   
   an unfair legal advantage over another. You can best believe that,   
   overturning abortion rights, the "masses" wouldn't stop there. You agree   
   that, under certain situations, abortion is correctly and justifiably   
   applied, so why can't you treat a woman like a valuable and intelligent   
   member of society, and let her make a choice for herself whether or not she   
   wishes to bring a child into the world?   
      
   What if this woman had PROTECTED sex,. and the condom, or other birth   
   control methods used, failed?   
      
   Without the safeguard of personal choice, she'd have to prove to an already   
   overworked courtroom, that she wasn't intending to conceive a child, merely   
   have sex with a man, and even then, it'd be open to interpretation. Society   
   would be far more draconian.
