As another poster has mentioned, this argument is not amenable to
reason, as it's based on opinion on both sides. How about we drop it?

Seems reasonable. And recall that when abortion was NOT legal, it was
still
practiced. The rich went elsewhere for theirs and the poor took all sorts
of
poisonous concotions or went to quacks who used 'medical' procedures that
would
have been advanced in the year 1000. Abortions are not going to stop
because
they are illegal. They are just going to damage or kill more poor people.

Why don't we just legalize any behavior that continues to be practiced even
though it is illegal?
