Some people don't like innocent babies being murdered even when you don't want it to be their business. Crazy, I know. Go figure.
Actually, it is.
I've done this before, so why not do it again. There is a country that has tried what you guys want. The Republic of the Philippines (ROP). Aboriton is illegal there except the most extreme medical emergencies.
And it is estimated that there are 500,000 to 800,000 illegal abortions in the ROP every year, and 4000 women a year are hospitalized from botched abortions. So, yes, I'm sure that the moralists in the ROP who feel abortion is bad, including the Roman Catholic Church, think they've accomplished something, but from where i'm sitting, they are doing more harm than good.
Keep in mind, even taking the low end number, the Philippines are having an abortion rate per capita greater than the US>
Now, there are ways to reduce the number of abortions- Family and medical leave, strong birth control and sex education, and so on. But these are the things that the religionists routinely oppose. Because it makes Baby Jesus cry or something.
Since you don't give a shit about babies being killed, I fail to understand why you give a shit about women having a botched abortion. Do explain why one person has more value than the other.
The woman is always way more valuable than the fetus which is inside her.
