In the Preamble of the U.S. Constitution it says “in Order
to… promote the general Welfare, and secure the Blessings of Liberty to
ourselves and our Posterity”
There are some cases
where abortion is necessary. However, the life of every individual is a gift
and is precious. In the first place, it is the responsibility of those, already
born, to use wisely the powers of procreation which they possess and protect
the precious lives of those yet to be born.
Does “general Welfare” include the lives of those who will be born? Are “the
Blessings of Liberty” only reserved to those who are born? It is our
responsibility to do what we know according to the knowledge that we have.
To “provide for the common defence” of the people of the United States of America is one of the proper roles of our government (Preamble). However, the government should not step beyond its boundaries and responsibilities. If the government tries to take away the right of the people to bear arms it is going against the second amendment which states: “the right of the people to keep and bear Arms, shall not be infringed” Those who do own guns, have the personal responsibility to use them wisely. The government should protect our nation from other nations but we should use our ability to choose wisely and encourage others to do the same.
Nice comments. These are important issues today in politics.
ReplyDeleteI like your reasoning on the ability for others to also have the option to defend themselves.
You weren't scared to say exactly what you think, regardless the comments that could come. Good job in sticking with exactly what you believe!
