So, it's basically "illegal without consequences". Do you think that would go over well with pro-life people here? :)
From Alas, a Blog -
"Which countries have the least abortion? Belgium has an abortion rate of 6.8 abortions per 1,000 women aged 15-44. The Netherlands, 6.5. Germany, 7.8. Compare that to the USA's rate of 22. Even better, compare it to countries where abortion is illegal: Egypt, 23; Brazil, 40; Chile, 50; Peru, 56. ... If pro-life laws are the best way of reducing abortion, then why are the world's lowest abortion rates found in countries like Germany and the Netherlands, while some of the world's highest abortion rates are in countries that outlaw abortion?"
The blog failed to mention that Germany has a 3 times lower rate of abortion than the USA partly because abortion is, actually, illegal in Germany where it is legal in the USA. The fact that it is not punishable in the first 90 days doesn't mean the woman did not commit a crime and knows she committed a crime.
We will be lucky to see such a law in the USA. My point was: Germany is way more conservative than the USA on the subject of abortion and German women are 3 times less likely to get an abortion.
Many of us pro-lifers are willing to take an incremental approach. If abortion were only allowed in the case of rape, incest, or to save the life of the mother, almost 98% of abortions would be eliminated. I suspect that when Roe v. Wade is overturned, some states will begin to take this approach, especially the red states.
