Abortion

Ladies and Gentlemen, allow me to disagree with my senior, teacher and father in the field of Medicine, the President of the Association of gynae/Obs in Uganda (AOGU), who suggests that Abortion should be legal in Uganda, reason being that many girls are getting unwanted pregnancies, and end up dieing from unsafe abortions. that if abortion was legal, then most of these wouldnt die, as they would easily seek safe abortion from hospitals!
So my question to you, Should we also legalize theft, because many stranded people die/are killed while they are climbing fences to steal? should we legalize cheating of exams because most unprepared candidates panic during the examinations? Should we also legalize adultery because people get ashamed after doing it?..... No!
therefore, I can never be in support of legalizing a bad vice because people are doing it. What we should do as medical doctors is to educate the public and let them know that abortion is murder, and in the process, 2 people can die, so carry out abortion at your own risk....of course I have left out the spiritual/religious aspects of abortion.
