2) “Most people”? You say that you want to look at evidence and then you go off and make generalizations. Erm, ok. But since generalization is ok, then “Most people” don’t think that it’s a “woman’s choice”. “Most people” prefer to stay out of politics, period. It’s not until they get acquainted with what abortion looks like that they start to realize what a horror it is. You see, there’s a big enthusiasm gap between toleration of something in the abstract as legal abortion, and actually getting one. That’s been the case since day one and it hasn’t gotten any better. For instance, even in ’96 Clinton was talking about “safe, legal, but rare” as though he had some moral qualms about murdering children. Interesting, no? And Obama’s “go for the throat” mentality in forcing subsidization of abortions has been a huge, huge albatross around his neck. It’s extremely unpopular, and there are what, 300 separate court cases against it?
4) Since you’re so keen on “evidence”, several U.S states have a single licensed abortion provider. Interesting, no? Planned Parenthood is on the run, having clinics shut down in state after state; PP is a toxic entity (remember the Komen fight and Veritas' videos?). Public funding (especially federal funding) is always a fight. Two of the women behind the original Roe vs. Wade decision have come out against abortion. Sonograms before abortions are the law in several states. Challenges to RVW happen yearly; there are all kinds of restrictions on abortion, from parental consent to age of the fetus; abortion has been slowly worn away by defining extreme examples (like Infants Born Alive act), and making a public spectacle of them, and then moving the bar a little lower the next time. Even Hollywood has created pro-life movies – even Hollywood! So, you are blind to the cultural shifts.
5) In the end, you’re not interested in “evidence”. [EDITED BY SUZANNE]
