In the 30 years since its legalization, abortion has become the most common surgical procedure in America.

More common than tonsillectomies? I'm finding that hard to believe.

They rarely do T&A's any more, antibiotics are generally prescribed instead.

There are 4400 abortions daily, or approximately one every 20 seconds.

I think vasectomies are the other most common procedure.

You can only have a tonsillectomy once, though. Abortions, on the other hand....
