What is abortion? (legal, abortions, doctor, murder)

[personwhoisaperson]

Is abortion a political issue, like most people make it? Or a moral issue?

[hothulamaui]

it is a personal issue between a woman and her doctor. other people have made it political when they impose their morals on others

Abortion is political on a macro level, as it concerns questions of legality and viability. It is a moral issue for anyone who is contemplating it.

Sex between a man and a woman is a personal issue, silly. Murder is a societal and political issue.

I think it's pretty relevant. As moral issue, that's what abortion is.
