Just a question, do you conservatives care about the innocent Iraqis killed by our troops every day, accidentally or not?

some info here at the libertarian Reason, which is not a pro-life group, showing that though they might not total 50 million, significant numbers starting out at 615,000 in 1973 and peaking at 1.6 million in 1990, 1.3 million in 2002. (this if you rely on abortion providers numbers.)

Total killed due to abortion since 1973 – 50,000,000 (50 MILLION) deaths.

I would love to hear how you came up with that number. That comes out to almost 1.5 million per year. You didn’t specify, but since you’re talking about Roe v. Wade, I’ll assume you’re talking about abortions in the USA.

There are about 4 million births per year in this country, so 1.5 million annual abortions would represent almost 1/4 of all pregnancies. (excluding miscarriages because they’re not really relevant and I don’t want to bother looking for the number.)

I’ve never seen a line outside of a clinic, so that number seems quite high.

Thank you for posting this. Your information is very interesting to read.

I did want to point out a typo… you put “(5 MILLION) deaths” when i’m assuming you meant 50 MILLION…

God bless you!
