Dear Editor,
I believe that the right for a person to
chose their own
destiny and how
they live is a fundamental principle of this
country. This
principle, along with several others helps to
form the fabric
of morality and ideas that we live by
everyday. When
this right is denied to someone by the
government,
undoubtedly something very wrong.
It is such the case with making abortions
illegal. By
outlawing
abortions, you are outlawing a woman's choice for
how she will live
her life. The government has in a sense
become a
"big brother" and has decided what is good for her
and what is not.
When government goes beyond foreign affair
and the
protection of it's citizens, into the controlling of
lives and
decisions that we make, it is no longer a
government. It
becomes something that goes against every
single principle
and idea that this country was founded upon.
It becomes a
vacuum of freedom, slowly sucking our rights
away until we are
nothing but a mindless mass, devoid of
ideas and a soul.
These lives that we live are not yours,
nor are they the
governments. We
have the choice to live and to die, and in
that choice lies
the very thing that makes us who and what we
are. When you
strip of us this choice, of this right, you
take our lives..
And with it, our freedom.
Explanation
This letter to the editor is liberal in
style. The idea
of giving a woman
a choice to an abortion is protecting the
rights of an
individual is liberal. Also, if we use the idea
of pregnant women
being a minority, this letter also protects
the rights of the
minority, which is a liberal idea as well.
