So, Wicked in answer to your point about consequences of making abortion illegal.


IRLC -- Statistics

"If only 39 women died from abortions the year before they were legalized, then either there were not many illegal abortions or illegal abortions were all extremely safe. Since we can assume that all illegal abortions were not extremely safe, it seems obvious that THERE WERE NOT MANY ILLEGAL ABORTIONS. Compared to the 1,000,000 claimed by pro-abortion organizations, Dr. T. Hilgers from Creighton University estimated a figure closer to 100,000 prior to legalization. "

United States Abortion Statistics

"64% of women who experienced one or more abortions “felt pressured by others” to have the abortion. Medical Science Monitor, Oct. 2004"

Planned Parenthood is being sued currently for that.

Pro-Abortion Memo Reveals Focus on Illegal Abortion Death Myths
"New York, NY (LifeNews.com) -- When abortion advocates in the United States sought to engender emotional support for overturning laws against abortion, they began citing bogus statistics claiming thousands of women were dying annually as a result of illegal abortions. While it has been proven those numbers were fabricated, that hasn't stopped pro-abortion groups from falsifying illegal abortion death statistics worldwide. "


It would appear that there isn't as big an outcry about those causualties because there haven't been nearly as many as pro-abortion advocates claim. Although, the number of murdered children is well documented.
