    The morning after pill works in 3 ways. It tries to prevent an egg from being released, tries to impede the sperms travel to the egg and finally, it tries to prevent a fertilized egg from implanting- the 3rd part is how it can be called abortion.

    Also, its only about 80% effective even when used properly and clinical studies show it has no net effect on pregnancy rates. Then there's the list of side-effects that can result from dosing your body with a massive amount of hormones.

    I'm against human euthanasia, as well as the death penalty. However, at least with the death penalty its presumably a violent criminal being killed, and with euthanasia its supposedly a person who is terminally ill with no chance of recovery. An unborn child has done nothing wrong and is not terminally ill- most will grow into healthy adults. So, if one supports euthanasia or the death penalty -again, I dont- I still think they have to sink lower still to allow for killing because of simple inconvenience.
