However, I feel it shouldn't be banned, nor should it be used as a form of birth control (though it usually is).
This is a tough subject.
I figure, what good is illegalizing it? It only does two things. First of all, forces women to have an unwanted child. That's never good, and our orphanages are crowded as it is. We can't just expect them not to have intercourse, it's too easy to do it. There are too many people who enjoy it. Another thing, the system (like many other systems in this country), will be manipulated. While the procedure may be essential to one woman's life (a rape victim, for instance), it might not be available to her where as it would work for somebody less deserving.
Plus you always have the possibility of black market abortions, which is even worse and more evil than the procedure in a sterile environment.
Anyway, those are a few factors to consider before making any concrete decisions.
