Abortions in the United States
Total number of abortions in the U.S. 1973-2011: 54.5 million+
234 abortions per 1,000 live births (according to the Centers for Disease Control)
Abortions per year: 1.2 million
Abortions per day: 3,288
Abortions per hour: 137
9 abortions every 4 minutes
1 abortion every 26 seconds
These statistics include only surgical and medical abortions. Because many contraceptive measures are abortifacients (drugs that induce or cause abortions), it is important not to overlook the number of children killed by chemical abortions. Since 1965, an average of 11 million women have used abortifacient methods of birth control in the United States at any given time. Using formulas based on the way the birth control pill works, pharmacy experts project that about 14 million chemical abortions occur in the United States each year, providing a projected total of well in excess of 610 million chemical abortions between 1965 and 2009.
Wait, let’s come up with the euphemism for a SEVERED BABY HEAD FOUND INSIDE A WOMAN before they do!
How about, “regrettable surgical tissue management practices”.

Lord have mercy.
As we’ve been sayin’ about Kermit Gosnell (excuse me, DOCTOR Kermit Gosnell as he was insisting he be called in court today), the only difference between him and every other abortionist in the world is that he performed his butchery outside the woman’s body and about five minutes later in the cycle than all the others - the blackout in the press about Gosnell is really because the leftwingers are afraid too many people getting to see what Gosnell did will come to see he’s not unique at all.....
Thousands of pro-life men and women in this country have been standing against this unregulated industry for a very long time, and for a very good reason.
Many books have been written by people who were eye witnesses to the bloody horror of the abortuary, while many women have died as a result of that horror.
I don’t know how much good will actually come out of this exposure, but I hope and pray the doors bust wide open so that all can see, and know what really does go on there.
Now, maybe all those horror pictures will actually mean something rather than painting a target on the pro-life folks.
One can only hope.
As your president said, if either of his daughters find themselves in a situation, he would want to see them able to have the services they may need so they are not punished with a baby.
and this was to ‘save the life of the mother’ how again? (which is the argument for why abortions need to be readily available and without restrictions=- but apparently it’s much safer to leave an aborted bleedign head inside a woman than it is for her to deliver a lvie child?)
Docs who are abortionists are the bottom feeders of the medical world.
Most of them barely passed their boards and couldn’t get a job as a ship doc abroad a Chinese trash hauler/
You have to realize that only the dregs of the medical profession do abortions.
That’s why these clinics are not sterile, medical procedures not followed, and women are dying at these clinics across the country. Babies are killed and disposed of in the most disgusting ways imaginable.
In forty years, how has this been an improvement on the back alley?
