I believe a fetus should have rights because of my culture, religion, and
experience. ... A fetus has a heartbeat, legs and arms, fingers and toes, and eyes at eight weeks after conception. The fetus may only be an inch long but it is still a human life. I believe there should be rights to protect a fetus. ... The church showed us a video of an abortion procedure, after the fetus was taken out of the mother it was tossed in a trash can. In the trash can you could see other fetus and blood. ... I support my friends, but who supports the fetus? If a fetus did have rights who would speak for it? If the government spoke for the fetus then it would depend on the opinions of the President, Congress, and the courts. If religious groups spoke for the fetus there would be no abortions. There would need to be a neutral person(s) to speak for the fetus. ... It was an article from The Christian Science Monitor titled “South Carolina tests the bounds of a fetus’s rights. ... “As a result of this trend, some 200 women in 30 states have been charged for violating some kind of ‘fetal rights’” (The Christian Science Monitor). I found this article to use opinion based evidence because it took place in South Carolina and they have more laws and opinions about “fetal rights.
