Abortion is Running Out of Babies
Front Page Mag ^ | 3/4/24 | Daniel Greenfield

The Biden administration is preparing to run the 2024 election on abortion. With a miserable economy and failure on every side, that is the one thing still left for the Democrats to run on.

But no generation has ever had less use for abortion than this one.

After the end of Roe v. Wade, Democrats warned of a decline in abortions, what they failed to mention was that abortions had been declining long before the Supreme Court decision.

After Roe v. Wade first came on the scene, abortions shot up all through the 80s and hit a peak in 1990 with 1.6 million. Then, just as the Democrats decided to go all-in on abortion, purging their pro-life wing, abortion rates crashed, and now struggle to pass the million mark.

The numbers are even more striking when accounting for the large U.S. population increase since 1990. According to the CDC, there were 345 legal induced abortions per 1,000 live births, 24 per 1,000 women, in 1990. By 2021, there were 204 abortions per 1,000 live births and 11.6 abortions per 1,000 women. The actual abortion rate had fallen by more than half.

There were over 4 million babies born in 1990 to a population of 250 million. In 2021 there were only 3.6 million babies born among a population of 330 million. It wasn’t abortion that accounted for much of the decline. The babies were not being aborted, rather they were not even coming into being.

This is why Planned Parenthood is getting into the "trans" business. There are fewer pregnancies and fewer babies to kill so they have moved on to destroying the children already born.

Maybe, or they stopped recording them, or less women are getting pregnant.

Most abortions are chemical nowadays.

Certain birth control pill combinations can produce abortion.

“Certain birth control pill combinations can produce abortion.”

Sorry, that’s not accurate.

“emergency contraceptive pills are a high dose of birth control pills that are taken after unprotected sexual intercourse. If several pills are taken at the same time within 72 hours of sex, they reduce the chance of pregnancy by approximately 75 percent.”

Certain combinations of birth control pills may have a “morning after” drug effect.

Consult a licensed doctor for your medical needs.

Right. I don't believe ANY of the statistics crowed by a government agency. Most likely it is much WORSE than presented. A whole lot worse.

Absent from the statistics are the number of live births resulting from abortion which are allowed to die or are willfully killed.

People were outraged, furious over baby seals being harvested for furs, being clubbed so as not to ruin the pelts, but let a doctor rip a fetus/human baby apart with powerful suction and or scissor like instruments, and those same people yell and scream that a “mother has the right” to have someone murder their unborn

Author is fooling. More souls than ever are being aborted by abortifacient hormonal mayhem under the guise of "birth control". It's destroying marriages and families and many "pro-life" people are willfully partaking.

The abortion issue is killing the Republican party. If we want to win elections we’ll have to stop making it a national issue.

Can’t we just pass a law making it Mandatory that Registered Democrats have at least one abortion or be criminally prosecuted?

The majority of the voters by a small margin are pro-life. And that positive margin continues to grow.
