What do you think should happen if:

- A 16 year old girl is raped and becomes pregnant
- Her parents are fully aware of the rape
- Her parents are dead set against her having an abortion


How many abortions are performed due to rape versus the number
performed following consenting sexual relations that results in an
inconvenient pregnancy?

I don't know. Why is a statistic important to a girl who doesn't want to
carry a baby that was conceived in an act of violence?


I think it is a very important statistic because the most common argument
for across the board abortion rights is examples of rape or violence. I
don't know, but I suspect there are many more abortions performed simply
because a pregnancy is currently "inconvenient" than those performed
because of a rape.

Never vote based only on things you suspect.

If your daughter was raped and you started talking to her about
statistics, I wonder how she'd react.


See? The rape thing again.
