As an aside, I think we (pro-lifers) ought to choose our battles wisely. The "rape/incest" argument is a red-herring thrown out by the Left which, in reality, is responsible for a very small percentage (I cannot find the number but I think it's <= 3%). The vast majority are first trimester and for purely elective reasons.

Indeed. And "incest" is really just padding the excuses. Non-consensual incest is "rape" and should be classified as such. Consensual incest is as consensual as non-incestuous relations. Heaven forbid a baby is destroyed for the sins of one or both parents.

I think that 3% includes all of the hard cases, rape, incest, life of mother, 13 year olds etc..

97% of abortions are for convenience sake only, and 50% of that 97% of convenience only have had multiple abortions.

Of all,(many) the women I have known who have had an abortions, have had 2, 3, and even more abortions.

Of these many women I have known, most have had atleast one abortions after the 6th month.

And most of them proudly tell you, with no shame.
