Filters Of Abortion

place. For instance, there is a significant chance one might be blocked if we were to research abortion. There is no filter that is so specific as to sieve out only pornographic imagery or wording. Because of some of the key words and/or photos associated with web pages on abortion, most filters will block the entire page, making it nearly impossible to write a decent paper with proven sources. In an article written for the CQ Researcher, Kranich (2001) writes the following:
Filters are neither the best nor the only means to protect children using the Internet in libraries. They give parents a false sense of security that their children are protected. No filter protects children from all objectionable content. But all filters block access to

    "No woman wants an abortion as she wants an ice cream cone or a Porsche. She wants an abortion as an animal caught in a trap wants to gnaw off its own leg." -Frederica Mathewes-Green. A few common reason why women get an abortion are financial instability and negative impact on the mother’s mental health and/or career/education. While most Democrats believe that females have full control over if they want an abortion or not because if they do not abort, the child will be born and raised with multiple psychological issues, most Republicans argue that no female should get an abortion under any circumstances because every child’s life matters and if a female cannot take care of her child, she should give them up for foster care.…

    Lee and George’s paper “The Wrong of Abortion” details the moral wrongness of aborting embryonic beings as it is essentially justified non-intentional killing. Reasoning provided by Lee and George are faulty as it neglects to consider the consequential factors that affect child after birth, complications that arise with giving your child up for adoption and how the abortion can benefit the mother and child. Lee and George begin the paper by defining that embryos and fetuses are essentially immature but complete human being and that after complete fertilization, an individual human is formed. They argue that the baby can feel pain and that it should be considered just as any regular being because of they have their own distinction, they have…

    The capability to select a child’s sex prenatally raises some moral questions: Even though we can do this, should we? Is it ethical? I am assuredly pro-choice, but I am not supportive of sex-selective abortions and I believe that they should be banned. I do not think that people should have the ability to select for a child’s sex because in most cases it is done for vanity purposes, such as “We already have a son, so we want a daughter this time to ‘balance the family.’” I believe that conception and pregnancy and childbirth are natural processes and that it is unethical to use technology to interfere in this way.…

    So sometime it can be a good thing to have web filters as long as they restrict websites that should be blocked. I still choose to believe that the school web filters are too strict but I also understand why we use them at schools. I know many students that would like to see the web filters be less strict, but I also know many students who feel that the web filters don’t affect them in any way. There also other reasons for web filters like maybe some parents don’t want their children to access these web filters. Or some people would maybe take advantage of not having any web…

    This can, at first consideration, seem to be a positive attribute of censorship. If we can protect our children, why would we not? Why should we not? Some may say we should keep children sheltered from the world around them to protect them from all of the negative influences, but this protection may actually be something that is hurting the children. Eventually, no matter how much censoring is done, children will come into contact with inappropriate, dangerous, or hurtful information.…
