On May 23, Gallup released a poll showing that more than 50 percent of Americans identify themselves as pro-life, while only 41 percent identify themselves as pro-abortion. They arrived at this number by tracking changes in American attitudes from 1995 until now. And recently, this poll was complemented by a report from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention that shows that the abortion rate for "nearly all demographic groups" has decreased considerably, and in some cases sharply, since the 1990s.
For example, among black citizens abortion has declined 23 percent, and among Hispanic citizens there has been a 32-percent decline. And while such numbers are phenomenal, among other segments of the population the decline was even greater -- among whites it was 44 percent, and among teens it was a mind-boggling 55 percent.
Wow. Fifty-five percent?!
This news dovetails perfectly with an earlier CDC report which showed that, against all odds, the percentage of female teens who had never engaged in sexual activity had increased by 16 percent since 1995.
When one considers the sex-driven marketing of everything from underwear to hamburgers in our culture, combined with the efforts Planned Parenthood has taken to offer and keep abortion services as discreet as possible, these numbers are simply astounding. No wonder Planned Parenthood is worried and looking more and more like any other business rapidly losing market share.

Gallup needs to poll the politicians. As we have seen with obammacare, it does not matter what the people think.
Remember men are not responsible, because the pro-death females in the Congress and Senate, along with other prominent womyn continually tell us that men are not qualified to discuss, much less make decisions regarding abortion. Only womyn can understand what it means to kill your child.
OK...however... Has RU-486 perhaps played a role in this otherwise encouraging drop in the numbers of abortions? Just wondering...
Funny. A leftist do gooder in our town and I were chatting. She is an older mainline Protestant. When I asked about great grands, she hesitated and said that one of her granddaughters had gotten pregnant while in college and had a baby which she kept.
The woman then shook her head and said wonderingly, Well I guess if we are pro choice, keeping the baby is a choice. ( that she had never considered)
Its really a matter of selection, those who abortion have fewer offspring and thus come the next generation there are fewer people raised by abortion tolerate households with genetic personality disposition that are abortion tolerate.
We may also be getting thou to some people that abortion is at least potently a form of murder which is indisputably an issue of the State who my definition must draw the line where the protection of human life begins and ends.
