Calling abortions "legal," to imply that they really aren't, is sill rhetoric.
Abortion is fully legal in this country. Whether it should be legal is an entirely different question.

Abortion and euthanasia are crimes, which no human law can claim to legitimize. There is no obligation in conscience to obey such laws; instead there is a grave and clear obligation to oppose them by conscientious objection. In the case of an intrinsically unjust law, such as a law permitting abortion or euthanasia, it is therefore never licit to obey it, or to take part in a propaganda campaign in favor of such a law, or vote for it (John Paul II -Gospel of Life).
Participation in the political process is a virtue, and every vote counts. Christians have every right to strive by legitimate means to shape public policy according to their moral convictions. We are all called to build a Culture of Lifevoting is among the most important ways. Political parties are not eternal, the only thing that matters is that you vote for Jesus.

Abortion is fully legal in this country. Perjury and lies and supporting lies is illegal in this country. Abortion prevents a child from his free accademic research and truth seeking. It is at the minimum illegal on grounds of obstructing the very justice upon which we claim to found abortion.

The founding documents for our nation are (1) The Declaration of Independence and (2) The Constitution of the United States. Laws that are in contradiction to those foundations are illegal. If the Supreme Court elects to ignore the Constitution and DOI, that doesn't make the illegal laws legal. It simply means our nation is enforcing illegalities.

The US Governement and the States
are destructive of these ends in numerous instances.
