Abortion used to be illegal and abortions were still performed.
Did you REALLY think abortion started when Roe v. Wade was passed ...!!!
There may have been some illegal abortions but no where as many as the number of abortions that have been performed after Roe vs Wade.

They don't care. Woman's lives don't matter, just fetuses.

If you are unable to stay in the argument with logical posts that stay on subject, concede the point and leave.

Reread the previous post as many times as needed for the statements I actually made to sink in. When you understand the point made in the previous post, reply as you desire.


This quesion isn't going away,

Hmm, got a link or should we simply assume NARAL's propaganda is accurate?

If you are going to post what I belive to be a distortion of the truth, back it up with facts from a credible source.

Absolutely.

To be honest, I posted more but then I saw "for rape survivors", which made the rest of my comments inappropriate. So... edit.

Abortionists should tell the sperm donor that abortion terminates a human life. Perhaps, he will not produce any sperm after learning how the need for an abortion has occurred. Wouldn't it be nice if the male species of human beings stop producing sperm and inserting into women. Sounds like a winner to me!

Bottom line, I still think it's a woman's choice and the effort should be put forth to avoid the situation. Not to sound like a broken record... but that means education, counseling and trust.

Making it illegal isn't a solution, rather, it almost seems like revenge or retribution for the lady not acting the way you think they should. Payback if you will.

I remember when they were illegal and it wasn't good. It's better now but definitely could be improved upon.
Ever since abortions became legal, abortions are viewed as nothing more than having a hangnail removed. By legalizing abortions, our nation has sent the message that abortions are acceptable means of birth control and that the life of the innocent baby is worthless. It sends the message that you can have all the fun you want without suffering any of the consequences for your actions.

What link?
Ok, I'll give you one more shot at it.

You: Are you actually implying that illegal abortions weren't done outside a hospital setting prior to Roe v. Wade?

Me: All abortions are performed in hospitals post Roe V. Wade?




Hmm, got a link or should we simply assume NARAL's propaganda is accurate?

If you have a link fine. Otherwise, I wasn't asking you anyway.

You know.... I don't see anyone saying... "Sure... let's go, I can always get an abortion! No problem!" I just don't think that thought process happens very often.
