Eighty-four percent of Americans want significant restrictions on abortion, and would limit it to, at most, the first three months of pregnancy. This includes almost 7 in 10 (69 percent) who identify themselves as “pro-choice.”

and yet many of those people continue to support and vote for politicians who support late-term abortion...

Killing of a 19-week unborn baby is still a murder.

I don’t care if their poll says 99.9% say they believe something.

Both God and the U.S. Constitution absolutely require equal protection for the right to life of every single innocent person.

The only opinion that counts is the judges. Who cares what we think

Much as I would like to believe the headline, a more careful read of the statistics is not quite so strong. This poll, done by the Knights of Columbus with help from Marist, is noteworthy, but I recommend that you read the actual poll results and methodology report linked from the site you posted above:

http://www.kofc.org/un/en/resources/communications/Abortion_in_America_January2015_For_Release_150121.pdf (PDF)

For example, the headline of this thread is not, in fact, a conclusion of the poll -- to say that 84% of Americans support "some restrictions" on abortion is not the same as saying 84% want to "ban" it. But God willing, someday it may be true.

(I'm not criticizing you, Morgana; just saying the headline writer was a little over-enthusiastic in their interpretation of the statistics.)

Nothing will change.

Still think we live in a democracy (or a republic, for that matter)?

Wide open abortion laws have turned abortion into “birth control for the lazy and procrastinators”. That and the miserably failed “sexual revolution” have done a grave disservice to both women and our nation.
