Restrictions like partial birth abortions and parental notification? Yes, I agree with you.

To: Hildy
Various polling over the years has shown a steady shift from pro-choice-on-abortion to pro-life. More people are becoming educated, partly thanks to the internet. It is becoming increasingly difficult to hide the reality of the violence. If your stance is rooted in personal experience, I am sorry for that and empathize; many have to create alternate realities simply to cope.

Most women now pro-life.

Zogby: most Americans (53%) favor restricting abortion to rape/incest or life of mother. 22% are "very interested" in restrictions.

There was another poll from 2003 from a different pollster that showed a similar result.

I believe your comments here reflect public sentiment from perhaps 15-20 years ago, but no longer. The shift has been gradual, but steady. This is good news for America, as a nation cannot survive if it cannot protect its most vulnerable (slippery slope paradigm).
