[Abortion is illegal in Germany.]

Plus, the fact remains that abortion is illegal in Germany. It is just not punished in the first trimester if the guilty woman fills out documents that she is mentally traumatized by the pregnancy and obtains counseling from a pro-life organization that agrees that she listened to them and then waited 3 days. This recognition that she has "no feminist right to do this" cuts abortion rates down to one of the lowest in the world: 7.5 per 1000 compared to the US rate of 22 per 1000.

Mathematically speaking, you can determine the extent of the "feminist holocaust" by subtracting the rate of abortions in the USA (where abortion is now arrogantly considered a feminist and constitutional right) with the rate of abortion in the first world countries where abortion is still possible, just not a feminist issue, not a constitutionally protected issue or something you can get "on demand" like a haircut.

The difference is about 15 children per 1000 women, aged 15-44, per year.

Now many FReepers can consider themselves fighting to save all 22 children per 1000 American women who are aborted each year. But, no matter what you do, 7 of those children could probably never be saved by any laws or any change in societal attitude.

But Germany's example shows that 15 children per 1000 women can be saved in the USA by overturning Roe vs Wade and never making abortion a "legal" right again...even if you leave punishment of those who get or perform abortions (inside 90 day term limits) up to God...not the state.

Germany recognizes that there is a big difference between a legal right and a non-punishable offence. That difference represents a huge amount of babies.

Also, Germany recognizes that Nazi laws consistently promoted abortion as a way to kill off undesirables even when the Reich made abortion illegal for white German women with whom the state wanted to produce more soldiers. Nazi law directly connected abortion with euthanasia and sterilization and other means of controlling "undesirable" populations.
