The whole debate is too long on rhetoric and short pn facts. When one side claims that women died when abortion was illegal, it seems reasonable to know how many. Or when they say that a fetus is not a person, I wonder why we afford personhood to corporations and give them more rights than unborn human beings.
I can respect your openness to being corrected.
Out here in the real world, nearly one in 4 US women have had an abortion. Quite likely some AF members here have had one. If you have a uterus or know someone who has one, this is a real life issue, not an abstract philosophical argument.
If you'd like to know how many women died by infection or bleeding to death when abortion was illegal, I can attest to one - my great grandmother in the 1920s. I tend to think hers wasn't an isolated or rare incident.
