So much talk about the effects of legality and (non-) enforcement!

When you consider the fact that any educated woman can easily give
herself a safe abortion early in her pregnancy, why waste time with
debate over what the laws should read?  Saying it isn't legal accom-
plishes nothing.

Sorry, gentlemen, but abortion will ALWAYS be the woman's choice,
irregardless of what the societal consensus is.  Whether you LIKE this
fact or not (and I'm not sure I do, either), it's still a fact.

Why don't we argue over whether legalizing suicide would cause more
suicides?
