"I still remember when you tried to claim that states with high teen birth rates also had "significantly higher" abortion rates:"

Yeah, I made the claim. It wasn't 100% accurate any more, if you look through the statistics, you see that rates have been dropping in states where significant roadblocks to abortion have been put up. And those high teenaged pregnancy states with low abortion rates often only have a handful of clinics in the whole state. Now, you could argue that is because there is little demand, but that doesn't hold water because the rate only dropped as they were shut down.

I didn't run away as I got tired of your mendacity. Steve's claim was bogus. High teenage pregnancy states with low abortion rates are also ones where it is virtually impossible to get an abortion. It isn't because those teens respect life more. Looking at the historical rates tell you that.

Being a teenaged mother is no joy. Just ask Bristol about that. She gave a recent interview on the subject.
