I mean you're pushing for something that kills innocent human beings, fam, you're not going to appeal to something that monstrous with "think of the savings!"

I agree, the FACTS are few women get ROUTINE abortions, few get more than 2 and that's over decades of sexual activity.

It isn't debatable, women ROUTINELY use condoms, the pill, and foam, sponges, and IUDs... RARELY they use abortions...

You admit that "FEW GET MORE THAN TWO" and you're saying that abortion isn't used in a cavalier manner as just simple birth control?! :lamo Ridiculous.

Half of abortions are repeat abortions, dude. That includes the sort of subhuman filth coming in for their third or fourth kill.

No, it isn't remotely debatable, you're just wrong.

I 'admit'??? :confused:

Yes the STATISTICS tell us few get more than two abortions IN THEIR LIFETIME. Please show us where even the anti-abortionists claim half of the abortions are repeat abortions.

Abortion is a LEGAL MEDICAL PROCEDURE. Name calling doesn't change facts, a 'cavalier manner' would have the vast majority of abortions being given to women with more than three abortions as sexual encounters would be a bit more frequent than once in a woman's lifetime.

So yeah it isn't remotely debatable, abortion is used in a small fraction compared to live births, the frequency of sex, the length of a woman's fertile life time, and for the most part when TRUE birth control fails... :peace
 
Re: If abortions are made illegal across the US...

Half of abortions are repeat abortions. That is a disgusting and irrefutable statistic provided by biased-towards-legal-abortion sources, and tells us explicitly that more than half the clients of abortions given those going back for a third or fourth or fifth are not using it as a one time tragic mistake because of bad circumstances or whatever other useless whiny bull**** excuse you apologist pro-aborts use... but indeed have no compunction about irresponsible sex and killing over and over again to get out of the expected consequence of responsibility and parenthood.

You cannot rationally look at the statistics and draw the conclusions you have. It is not rationally possible.

I agree with that!
 
Re: If abortions are made illegal across the US...

Fact: from 2010:
Most women who have abortions (52 percent) have had no previous abortions, and 26 percent have had only one previous abortion. Considering that most women are fertile for more than 30 years, and that birth control is not perfect, the likelihood of having one or two unintended pregnancies is very high.

The U.K. Reported:
37% of abortions in 2014 were to women who had already had one or more abortions.

I would imagine repeat abortions are also down in the US since the overall abortion rate in the Us fell 13 percent between the years 2009 and 2012.

Also over 65 percent of US women of child bearing now consistently use artificial birth control and that does not include the women who had tubal ligations or who are sterile due to a medical condition.

Which is why we keep talking about long term birth control options (implants etc) that are more reliable.

I would love to see long term options available for men as well. They need better reproductive options as well.

Do you think the numbers of abortions will drastically decrease?

Who cares if abortions decrease, the point is, dead women and girls would INCREASE. Your problem is, you're looking at a plane crash and worrying about the luggage. Calling the right myopic ignores the fact that they're also looking off into space.
