Should abortion should be legal?

The question is always posed whether or not abortion be allowed. Considering the fact that a baby can be born in 20 weeks in the 2 trimester and even in some cases in 16 weeks which is considered to be the earliest stage in the second trimester. Abortion is an extremely touchy subject in today’s society. I believe abortion should be illegal for many reasons. Abortion deprives an innocent child of its life for things outside of the child’s control. I just recently watched a video on how an abortion procedure is done, and it was one of the most horrifying things I have ever watched. The baby’s limbs were ripped from the body and pulled out of the mother with what looked to be tongs. I understand when women are raped and don’t want to keep the child, or they don’t think they are currently fit to provide for the child, but the baby can be adopted or fostered out to a family who is unable to to bare a child.
