Satire of Abortion
Satire of Abortion The title of this satire is not given, but this satire mimicked abortion. The satirist is from cnsnews.com. The flaw that is exposed by this satire is abortion and how some people against. This satire is juvenalien, because it is a bad sense of humor towards pro-abortion. This cartoon is very sarcastic to abortion. The satirist of this cartoon exploits exaggeration, grotesque, and inflation. CNS News exploits exaggeration in this cartoon about abortion. The cartoon shows a woman in with a t-shirt on that says “Third Trimester” and an arrow pointing down at her oversized pregnant stomach. The woman is asking, “How Dare you challenge my RIGHT to kill this thing?” and she is saying, “No one can STOP me from doing whatever I want with my body!” At the bottom of the cartoon it states “Liberal compassion at 36 weeks.” This exaggerates the fact that women have the choice to have late term abortions. The cartoonist creates the stomach bigger than a realistic pregnant woman would actually be. The CNS News is trying to make sense that this woman is 36 weeks pregnant. A baby is normally born after 39 weeks, but the woman wants to terminate the baby last minute. CNS News wants to let viewers know that late abortion is wrong. CNS News also utilizes grotesque in this cartoon about abortion. The “black humor” about this cartoon is a woman with an oversized pregnant stomach and the woman is saying “No one can STOP me from doing whatever I want with my body!” CNS News uses this bad sense of humor to prove a point that woman have a right to do whatever they want with their body. Although a woman might be in her third trimester, in some states she can still terminate the pregnancy. A lot of liberals are against abortion, so they think it is even more wrong to have a late termination of the pregnancy. CNS News lastly employs inflation in this cartoon about abortion. CNS News is taking abortion and what is happening in realistically with abortion and

    According to Rebecca Ayrey in “Abortion Distortion,” at nineteen weeks of her first sonogram her baby was diagnosed with Dandy-Walker Syndrome. Also, two parts of her brain were missing completely, other areas were malformed, and there was a heart defect, as well as acute limb irregularities. The baby would have only lived a short period of time. Parents gathered information for the abortion. The abortion took place when the mother was at an advanced state of pregnancy. Mother was worried that prohibiting late-term abortions could have the effect of forcing some women to make choices that aren't right for them. According to Rebecca, Women shouldn’t be judged; they should have…

    Wendy Davis “kick-started” her campaign by standing in a court room for 11 hours straight talking about putting a ban on abortion after 20 weeks. The exception Davis advocated for would be more broad than the abortion law in Texas today. Allowing women to abort for a bigger range of medical issues, including a wider range of fetal abnormalities. “Texas only allowing post-20-week abortions in the case of fetal abnormality with "severe, irreversible brain impairment" and threats to a woman's life.” (Amanda Marcotte, Wendy Davis, Hero to the Pro-Choice Movement) During Davis’ 11-hour filibuster, many people stayed to the very last minute.…

    result of the destruction of the “World Trade Center” on 9/11. Every single day, more than 3,000 American babies are killed by abortion. An abortion means to kill a fetus. It began during the year 1550 B.C. Abortions happen all over the world, but originally began in Egypt. 1% of abortions happen because of a rape or pregnancy difficulties, 6% happen because of health problems, and 93% happen because the fetus is an unwanted baby. Abortions affect more than just the fetus’s existence, but the lives of the mothers drastically change either from a side affect or emotionally. It can also destroy a family’s…

    As cryptic a question as it comes across sonically, a pondering wonder under the microscope of liberty. We are the land of the free. Home of the brave! As brave as we are we must show a sliver of courage in tackling the issue of abortion head on without intent of further prolonging. Referring back to the land of the free, we must regard our very words sang in tune to our pledge of allegiance and practice the proud words we preach. A women’s body is a sacred place, for her and her only. To infer to the women of America that pregnancy means a guaranteed ride through labor and the birth of her child in the same breath that we preach freedom is a tale of irony for the ages. As beautiful as a new life is, the government is not the one going through the nine month journey or living through the ambiguity of what may happen under the women’s situation. As cherished as a new life is, not always is it the best option for the women and to force a women through an unwanted process to bear an unwanted child is unfair to not only the women, but the child brought into the world unrequested .These very thoughts can so easily drive one into depression. It’s inconceivable that people will fight a fight they have no business in, especially when the Constitution gives a “guarantee of certain areas or zones of privacy." In a world where fundamental rights are slowly slipping through the grasp that once clutched the pole to our flag, it is essential to fight any naysayers of the rights involving personal issues, especially…

    Abortion isn't a bad decision when it comes to not wanting a baby. For example, when the mother has health issues or any other medical issue, abortion is an option so the baby doesn't get affected. A mother has the decision in order to choose abortion knowing if she thinks it's the best for her condition or self. It shouldn't be considered as murder even when it's at 10 to twelve weeks. Even though parts of the body, such as; the legs, arms, it is not considered a human being. Pro-abortionists fully believe that mothers have the right to kill their baby even a week before the baby is born. They are authorized morally and medically to go for an abortion.…

    “Pregnant”, a little disyllabic noun, but it has one of the biggest implications, especially with words ending with suffix –lee. Geographically, a pregnancy intended to be kept full-term could be a good or bad thing; for example, in China, where population size is being somewhat monitored, a second or third pregnancy would cause alarm, and potential sanctions. Religiously, it would prove pre-marital sex, which is not encouraged till marriage in some religions. Financially, it would require smarter expenditure in order to prioritize on the incoming baby’s needs. Most importantly however, emotionally, it could bring great join to the expecting parent(s) or great distress. Laughter and tears of happiness would probably be expected from a woman or couple who had grim odds of reproducing, but what about the teen mom-to-be? Or the busy workaholic? According to the Minnesota Citizens Concerned for Life (M.C.C.L.), a pro-life group, about 54,559,615 U.S. abortions have been reported, since it was legalized in the U.S. in 1973 to 2011. Of this astounding number, less than 2% of women who aborted their fetuses say they became pregnant as a result of rape or incest. So what goes through the mind of those who ultimately decide to have an abortion? In what situations should abortion be allowed based on reviewing the moral and legal implications?…

    Everyday, innocent, harmless fetuses that could soon be laughing children are being cruelly destroyed. One form of abortion is to cut the fetus into pieces with serrated forceps before being removed, piece-by-piece from the uterus by suction with a vacuum aspirator. Another form consists of bringing the fetus feet first into the birth canal, puncturing its skull with a sharp instrument and sucking out the brain tissue. The remains of the fetus or embryo, as the case may be, are put into plastic buckets and then sent to a dumpster where these precious bones and limbs are disposed. However, how and when an abortion takes place are of little significance to pro- abortionists and other defenders of abortion. Even former abortion practitioners have a new view on abortion. These changes of heart were caused by psychological, religious and…

    Everyday, we as a society fight for our rights. We defend them passionately. There are so many instances in which one cannot fight for their own rights. Partial-birth abortion is a silent killer of those individuals that cannot fight for themselves. Partial-birth abortion is when a doctor delivers a baby foot first; until the entire body except the head is outside the mother. The he punctures the base of the baby’s skull with a pair of surgical scissors. Making a hole for a suction tube where the doctor then sucks the baby’s brains out. That causes the skull to collapse and the infant to die. Now the dead child’s head can be delivered from the mother’s body.…

    Richard Stith is an adamant advocate of the pro-choice side of the abortion debate. In his “Why Pro-Life Arguments Sound Absurd,” Stith makes a fool of himself by making a pro-life argument under the claim of pro-choice. He states, “Suppose we're back in the pre-digital days and you've just taken a fabulous photo, one you know you will prize, with your Polaroid camera. (Say it's a picture of a jaguar that has now darted back into the jungle, so that the photo is unrepeatable.) You are just starting to let the photo hang out to develop when 1 grab it and rip its cover off, thus destroying it. What would you think if I responded to your dismay with the assertion "Hey man, it was still in the brown-smudge stage. Why should you care about brown smudges?" I submit that you would find my defense utterly absurd. Just so for pro-lifers, who find dignity in every human individual: To say that killing such a prized being doesn't count if he or she is still developing in the womb strikes them as outrageously absurd” (2). Pro-lifers value human life at every stage and would say that killing such a prized being does count, even in the developing stages, therefore Stith ill-advisedly creates a pro-life argument under the claim of pro-choice and in turn creates a negative reputation for various “pro-choicers” that needs to be recognized. Similarly but more importantly, a false assumption in the…

    While instances of abortion aren’t newsflash in India or any other nation, the cruelty being flaunted in this particular case is, for lack of a better word, horrifying. I happened to catch this exchange in a programme on television, Satyamev Jayate (Official website), which is a recent endeavor to throw light on the brutal underbelly of a supposed sophisticated society. It is a novel venture to voice the injustice that is rampant in the country, and to work together as an informed community to abolish such evil acts and their perpetrators…
