If you ever want to get a self-identified "pro-life" or "anti-abortion" voter to oh so grudgingly consider changing their label, ask them how many years of prison a woman should serve for having an abortion.

Most of the time: "Oh, I don't think people should go to jail for it, I just don't like abortion...."

No, you just de-license the abortionist MD. The jails are already full of druggies anyway, so there is no room for abortionists or abortionees anyway.

And if the abortion is performed by someone who isn't licensed? A "midwife" or the like? Unless there's an actual law with criminal sanctions against performing a specific medical procedure, and then the mother and anyone who aided rhem (the boyfriend or parent who drove them to/from the "crime scene" for example) is chargable as an accessory. Then we're back to square one.

I encourage anyone who gets into a dscussion with even a remotely compassionate selfidentified pro-life person (i.e. over 90% IMO), ask them this question and see how many people truly oppose legalized abortion.
