Just think if we could rally the numbers of people out on the streets to stop abortion as the illegal immigrants did a few weeks ago!

That would send America a message.

Whenever I hear about that 44 million executed babies since Roe v Wade, I always wonder though about how many babies were illegally aborted before Roe v Wade.

Anybody know of any statistics on that?

There don't tend to be solid statistics on something that isn't legal. I was surprised, on looking at an old Time magazine article from 1967, that it estimated abortions at "1 million to 1,500,000" per year. I do know that many doctors rubber-stamped approvals for different "therapeutic" reasons, based on conversations with doctors I know who were in practice at the time. If you knew the right people, it wasn't considered a big deal. We would just return to that time and that attitude, for those with money and connections.
