Many in the pro-abortion crowd won't like this study. It seems that our American press has done a good job of hiding this study and others like it. If you doubt the validity of this study, read the fully documented version at the link.

"This is an impeccable, record-based study," said David C. Reardon, Ph.D., who authored a review of the Finland study and other related studies in the latest issue of The Post-Abortion Review. "It proves beyond a shadow of a doubt that abortion is not safer than childbirth." I knew or we knew all that... never mind. It's a woman's choice, right? Healing social problems by killing, now how is that a novel idea to find a vaccine! Just kill the sick person.

For the baby, abortion is a billion times more deadly than childbirth!

At conception many hundreds of genetic characteristics of both parents combine to form the genetic profile of the developing human being, some of the characteristics are, the colour of the hair, the colour of the eye, the colour of the skin, the way a person walks, the way they talk, etc. These genetic qualities may be altered by environment factors later in life. This is a profound event, which is often trivialised and even destroyed.
People who deny that human life does not begin at conception should state when life begins. It is certainly not at implantation, which is only the addition of nutrition to an already living and very complex organism.

The leftist agenda driven 'media' presents itself, at every opportunity, as being dedicated to a particularly reciprocal notion of 'fairness'.
Reciprocal in the sense that the media often and regularly presents vignettes which suggest that 'fairness' can best be achieved by seizing 'something' from 'someone' and giving it to his 'victim'. In this way OUTCOMES FOR BOTH PARTIES ARE EQUALIZED, the evil 'oppressors' are thus made to reciprocate, to 'give back to the people' (as they say, ad nauseum) and Baby Jesus smiles. (or baby mohammed, or Satan... whatever)
Yes, it's all just a load of Marxist horsesh!t... The entire pro-death movement is merely an arm of that coalition of leftist ideologies that seek to control, to break, to vandalize and to kill.
It doesn't do any good to attempt to educate the thralls on the left. They are lost sheep.
But you can tweak them...
I would suggest to the pro-deathers out there that abortion can be performed in a manner that is consistent with THEIR OWN PRINCIPLES of 'reciprocal fairness'.
It is an indisputable fact that abortions which are performed with dynamite are utterly reciprocal, and thus eminently 'fair'.
Of course, the baby butchers would object to this protocol...
It would interfere with their lucrative, and illegal, traffic in the body parts of the children they murder.

Marked. Thanks.

Considering that a good many of the deaths were accident and homicide, it is probable that the difference between women who gave birth and the women who had abortions was because those who gave birth were, of necessity, spending a lot more time at home taking care of the baby, while the ones who had abortions were going out on their normal activities, which exposed them to the hazards outside the home, including accidents and homicide. Maybe they should compare women who had abortions with women of the same age and marital/economic status who simply didn't get pregnant.

women who aborted in the year prior to their deaths were 60 percent more likely to die of natural causes, seven times more likely to die of suicide, four times more likely to die of injuries related to accidents, and 14 times more likely to die from homicide. I guess this speaks volumes about the character of women who seek abortions.
To: Got a right to Life? . . Huh?
Researchers believe the higher rate of deaths related to accidents and homicide may be linked to higher rates of suicidal or risk-taking behavior.
Such risk taking tendencies would be present in some women whether or not they have an abortion, no? So how does having an abortion lead to those deaths?

Thought you might want to comment on a study that does not try to eliminate other contributing factors.

ALL:
Post #19 is correct. The study is irrelvent. It may show correlations, but it does not explain causations. It's a weak argument against abortion too.
What happens when the pro-abortionists site "studies" that show "benefits" of abortions? Those are junk too.
The only thing anyone needs to know about abortion is simple:
Abortion Kills a Human Life.
