I don't believe abortion should be used as a method of birth control for irresponsible people. I believe adoption is an excellent alternative, and I have several friends, and family members, who were adopted.

However, I also believe that I can't force my beliefs on someone else. Personally, I would could not imagine a situation in which I would have an abortion. But I have friends who have had them, and while I understand their reasoning, I disagree based on my own morals. Whether or not it should be legal? I agree with TheAbominatrix. If it were illegal, hundreds of women would become sick, disabled, and dead due to botched, back alley surgery. And do they deserve that for being scared or foolish or irresponsible or because they're victims? I don't think so.
