NRO is lamenting that with a good majority of Americans against abortion (58% is their number) that our law makers (at what level – State? Federal?) are not passing laws against abortion.
Isn’t it just like political junkies to believe that laws will solve the problem.
I suppose the thought of black markets never crosses their minds.
How do you convince a woman who doesn’t want to take care of a child to do so? If you can do that you don’t need a law. If you can’t do that the law won’t work.

I checked on the black market, and full-auto guns are much cheaper than the retail prices. No NFA stamp needed either!
The poll is problematic, as it asks people to choose one of the following:
***QUOTE***
– abortion should never be permitted
under any circumstance
– abortion should be allowed only to
save the life of the mother
– abortion should be allowed only in
cases of rape, incest or to save the life of the mother
– abortion should be allowed only during
the first three months of a pregnancy
– abortion should be allowed only during
the first six months of a pregnancy
– abortion should be available to a
woman any time she wants one during
her entire pregnancy
***END QUOTE***
Notice two major considerations are omitted.
– the HEALTH of the mother; and
– abortions capable of termination by abortifacent drugs (within the first few weeks of pregnancy)
I think the numbers would have been different had these factors been present.
