Who are the real abortion extremists? The media don't exactly trumpet these abortion poll results

Well sure it's a good starting point -- especially when you factor in that the abortions they "approve" constitute, what, 3% of all abortions?

I agree with you. Abortion is unacceptable under any circumstance except for the DEATH of the mother. "Health" has a wide-range of interpretations, but DEATH means that the mother WILL DIE (and, by default, the baby) if something isn't done. This is very, very rare (less than 1% of all abortions). Most of the time, however, there are medical solutions that can prolong the pregnancy until the baby can be taken via c-section at a surviveable gestation, and then whatever is wrong with the mother can be healed. It is very, very rare that something is so serious that a baby has to be aborted to fix it. But, if after multiple consultations the death of the mother and baby is imminent, then I think the mother and father should have the right to decide if an abortion is the only alternative.

Well done rhema!

Note that the reasons approved by a majority constitute possibly 3 percent of abortions; those disapproved constitute at least 97 percent of all abortions.

The good news is that there is popular support for a revision of our abortion laws prohibiting 97 percent of current abortions. That is one million human beings per year!

Why do our elected law makers defend the right to ALL abortions? The pro-abortion lobby pays them to enforce the current state af abortion law which allows abortion for any reason, at any age of justation.
