Despite my general social conservatism, I'm rather ambivalent on abortion issues, so I guess that makes me somewhat pro-choice. Because of that, I don't really care about the punishment for abortions either. However, I draw the line at sex-selective abortions, and I believe that there needs to be severe punishments associated with them to eliminate the importation of such disgusting practices into our society. I also believe it should be illegal for medical providers to divulge the sex of a fetus until it is no longer legal to have a regular abortion, with fines and imprisonment for those who break the law.

If any type of abortion is illegal, then yes, performing such actions must have consequences for everyone involved. The moral quicksand upon which that lies is one reason I choose to err on the pro-choice side of most abortion issues.
