GreyPowerVan posted:I thought pro-life people didn't agree with abortions for any reason? Why are they trying to The Gallup poll quoted in the USPol thread,  when broken down, actually shows a lot more nuance depending on the circumstances involved in a decision to abort:  http://www.gallup.com/poll/1576/abortion.aspx Further down the page Gallup splits out sentiment by circumstance; only 13-15 percent think that abortion should be barred even if the mother's life or health is endangered, e.g., while 56 percent (!) think that abortion should be illegal because a woman doesn't want to have a child.

GreyPowerVan posted:Ah, interesting. So 13-15% of the population are insane. Well, as pointed out in the USPol thread, it's ideologically consistent, at least, to say that "murdering precious babies" is wrong in any instance, even when its host body is endangered. I think the far more interesting stats are that solid majorities believe that abortion should be illegal in the instances of the woman's not being able to afford or not wanting a child. To me, that's way more "insane," and far more politically pernicious.
