I have it on my desk right in front of me. President Reagan wrote a good book in 83 but he opened the flood gates for abortion in California while Governor. Do you deny that?

Reagan did indeed sign an abortion bill pre Roe v Wade, and thus California along with three other states, one of them being NY I think, were the subject of a study out of Stanford contending that legalized abortion was a causal effect reducing crime 20 years later (the poor aborting disproportionately), since the crime rate in the four states dropped a few years earlier than the nation as a whole. I posted that study on FR. I did attract some negative comment. :)
