Prolife is not really interested in ending abortion, he is more interested to see women prosecuted for murder and with a judicious nod of his head seeing them strung up by the neck.

Bullshit, it won't fly. Numbers of your vaunted "back alley" abortions were always skewed, so don't give me that dirty coat hangar bunch of lies. I have no idea if you are male or female, but if you are male, you are just a little man that hides behind the buzz words "woman's choice", so you do not have to take any responsibility. Actually you are too weak to take any responsibility...still no excuse to kill the innocent. If you are a female...have you ever been pregnant? If so, tell me....how many arms did you have.....how many eyes? Did you have cajones? Oh...so there IS a being there that is not your body??? Imagine that!!!!

If conservatives such as yourself get their way and abortion gets outlawed in the US, they will go to Canada or Mexico to get an abortion. All you will have achieved is to increase risks to women who don't have the means to travel for this purpose, who will have to confide their lives to a witchdoctor in some back alley. What keeps getting lost is that that is PRECISELY what happened before Roe v. Wade and that fact helped sway the USSC in that decision and a large part of society to accept it. Those who had time and money went to Europe. Those who didn't usually had it done by someone without proper equipment, training, and back up. Or did it themselves. And too often ended up dead or seriously injured. This isn't a case of no deaths on one side (abortion banned) and death on the other (abortions allowed). You also get deaths if they are banned. When it's your daughter's or your wife's life on the line, it usually looks different. And if it's your wife or your daughter, you may never know of it unless the result is disastrous. Then you get to consider the cost of that warm feeling being against it gave you.
