Do You Know Your Unalienable Rights?

How can some people honestly say that a woman having an abortion is not taking a life? It is something that was there and now is not. It could have lived, but will not because someone decided they did not want it. They took the role of God into their own hands and decided a person's fate based on their feelings and emotions rather than considering others. It makes me weep inside to think about how many beautiful babies have not been given the opportunity to see God's Creation. Their RIGHT to life has been taken away by another human who selfishly decided to eject it for some personal reason or another- because America is saying that it is the woman's right to do so. Just because it's legal here in the US doesn't mean you should do it. I did a little research and think you should read this...

" We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness."

This, my friends, is the first sentence of The Declaration of Independence. You might have heard the saying "If our Founding Fathers could see America today, they would roll over in their grave." And MY WORD is it the truth. The first line says "... all men are created equal, that they are endowed with certain UNALIENABLE Rights, that among these are LIFE, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness..." I double-checked Merriam Webster Online and the definition of the word "unalienable" is "incapable of being alienated, surrendered, or transferred." Now, I'm not the most logical person I know, but if unalienable means that the aforementioned rights can not be taken away from you, and the woman who is an American citizen is pregnant with a baby who, IF born, would be considered an American citizen, isn't that taking the American Baby's UNALIENABLE right to life away? It then goes on to state this,

"...That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness..."

If it is law makers in the Legislative Branch of the American Government who are passing laws that go DIRECTLY against what out Declaration of Independence stands for, it is OUR RIGHT as Americans to abolish this government and begin to form a new one that we think will work better for everyone. Under this (and previous) administrations we have had to fight to keep our unalienable rights, and we seem to be losing more and more as time goes on. What is the loop hole in the rather strongly worded statement our Fore Fathers wrote? How can that be unclear? If the government is being destructive, it is our job to fix it. Now they are trying to limit our ability to pursue happiness in the form of owning a small business. What will be next America? Will we have to report where we are at all times? That seems to be the last of the three founding principles of our country left to be taken away. Protect our LIFE, LIBERTY, and the PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS. Establish morals that do not erase the value of these things. Stand up for them and defend them as if your life depended on it. You never know... some day it just might.
