Essay title: Abortion Is Murder

If someone was to ask you what all came to mind when they said murder you may have a million different things that come to mind. A big issue that comes to my mind is abortion.

With it having its unique genetic pattern you can discern its eyes, nose, mouth, ears, and fingers. Now you can see this living growing human inside of you. By killing it you could be robbing the world of the next Einstien. Or the one person to come up with a cure for cancer. You will never know what that baby could of become because you took its life. There is no reason to take a babies life because there are so many people that are willing to take that baby because they cant have their own. You murdered some one that could of been something great.

In our world when you have the intentions to kill someone it is a threat and when you actually do it, its
