It is my opinion that a woman's choice ends when she says yes or no to the act which leads to babies!

(the rape argument is a totally different discussion, so don't go there)

The pro-abortion crowd loves to bring up rape, incest and the woman's life as the reason for infanticide, but as soon as the facts are brought to light this argument collapses.

Fact: There are over 1.3 million abortions performed in the United States each year, this works out to more than 3500 per day.

Fact: The incidence of pregnancy from rape is extremely low (for a rape pregnancy to occur, a woman must be raped on one of couple of days a month when she is ovulating and even when this happens the trauma often prevents pregnancy), it is estimated that the number of pregnancies from rape each year is between 3000 and 5000. Additionally, and the abortionists NEVER acknowledge this, many rape victims choose to keep their babies.

Fact: The incidence of pregnancy from incest is so low that there aren't even any good statistics available. Men who commit incest generally take care to avoid times when the girl is ovulating and the incest often stops altogether when the girl begins to menstruate.

Fact: NOBODY has suggested that a woman not be allowed to have abortions if her life is actually at risk, in fact these were available long before Roe v. Wade.

Fact: Of the over 1.3 million abortions each year in the United States, well over 95% are performed for convenience and nothing else.
