If legal abortion affects crime, then that shows that legal abortion increases the rate of abortion.

Uh... yeah.

Celticempire is bringing this up because a common pro-choice talking point (in some circles) is that abortion bans are so commonly flouted that whether it's legal or not doesn't make any difference to how often it happens. Obviously this is untrue.

Lol, who the hell says that? That's absurd.

Evidence says it's true:

Wow, I guess we shouldn't bother restricting access to firearms then. After all, this proves that banning something doesn't make it more difficult to obtain!

This comparison doesn't work because there's ample evidence to show that gun control is effective.

Effective at doing what?
