Don't sound like you would have a problem murdering illegal immigrants either.

There's a nasty little assumption on your part.

Illegal immigrants are not citizens. They are, under the laws of all 50 states, covered against murder. If anyone tried to change that, I would oppose them strongly. But murder is a matter for states to deal with - for example, some allow the death penalty, and others do not. The federal government has no part in punishing murder. Nor does it have a role in abolishing abortion.

If returned to the states, most would allow some abortions. A few would allow all, and a few might ban all. I suspect, on the whole, more states would restrict abortions than current laws do.
