He was saying whether or not abortion is justified in the case of rape.

Akin answered that in the case of “legitimate rape”, the body has a way “shut that whole thing down”, which as he proved on Hannity, he meant to reduce fertility so that pregnancy never happens.

Also, your repeated harping on cortisol is asinine, miscarriage rates among rape victims are 15-20%, conventional miscarriage rates are 10-20%, so the “x factor” that you’re looking for simply isn’t there, at least not by regular Earth scientific standards.

Think about what you just said! A woman can't get an abortion, for rape or any other reason, unless she is pregnant, can she?!

Or are you saying abortions are performed on those who aren't pregnant?
