People who feel they need an abortion but don't fit into the neatly pre-approved list of reasons to have one, most likely compiled by someone who has never been in that situation, will most likely have an abortion illegally anyway in an entirely dangerous manner.
I've always been curious why people think the bulk of people who have abortions do so lightly. Its typically an agonizing decision that forever has repercussions on the woman's psyche but people do what they think is best. No one sets out to have abortions because they want to kill babies.
Its a sensitive issue, and as others have said it cannot be solved as easily as a "yes or no". Its complicated and each situation is unique. To lump everyone together in generalized categories is ignorant and only clouds the issue further.
