Sorry, McCoy – Obama didn’t make abortions legal. That was done a few decades ago. And if people weren’t willing to accept abortions, there have been many opportunities for them to be made illegal. - Makes you think, doesn’t it? - Well, it can’t make you think, McCoy – one needs a brain for that. But it should make others think. - And hey, guess what. I believe abortions are immoral.
How many die in their lives of slow guilt and regret from the “advice” they get from plan parenthood. How many use abortion as a form of birth control?
Attention Conservatives/Libertarians: paying for birth control/abortions/sterilizations for liberals is the biggest no-brainer in the history of the universe. It’s actual government money well-spent.
2011. . Not that 2012 will be substantially less. . I have no problem with this cartoon. It’s Glenn’s deal. Of all the dispicable ways he has gone at it over the years, this one is somewhat civil. . I believe that it is the preacher’s job to keep Catholics out of OB/GYN stirrups having this procedure. Glenn is perfectly within his rights to aide the priest in that way if he so chooses (which he does). . Let’s make sure that the procedure is available in a clean, safe, experienced environment for those women who decide to have the abortion. . Once the decision is reached, it’s none of your business anymore. . Catholics are about 25% of the US population. Most Catholics are less “religious” than most of the “Evangelicals” (tell you something you don’t know, right?) But, trying to tar 25% of the female population is a pretty bold move by Glenn. If Catholics were of one mind, Glenn would be looking for employment elsewhere. But they are not of one mind (not even individually!). . Overall, I give it “M’eh.” Sorry, I’m just not that jazzed about the abortion issue.
Glenn, ju gotta lotta ‘splainin to do! . 333,964 abortions in 2011? That isn’t anywhere NEAR a record (maybe it’s near a record low depending on how far back you want to start taking records. . in 2008 there were 1.21 million abortions performed legally in the USA. That’s nearly 4 times what Glenn is touting for 2011 as a “Record Year.” . What’s up with this Glenn?
Plan Parenthood did over 300,000 abortions and only 2,800 adoption referrals. If that is not reason to stop sending my tax dollar to Plan Parenthood then I don’t know what is. Our tax dollars are being used for abortion no matter what they say.
Look how much we pay for welfare now. How much goes to women with no husband and how much goes to families with two parents?
We need stable families not more welfare and if you want inconsistency let’s look at the left, pro-abortion, anti-death penalty (at least the children did not do anything) and pro-animal rights. Think about that please!
As for the drop in crime that is too far of a extrapolation 15 to 20 years when most criminals start, to another 15 till they might quite to make any kind of a statement. Some on the left would say you are a racist simply because more crime is done by minorities and no I am not.
Last if we had stable families would we not have even lower crime?
Not nearly as many as you claim. Every woman I know who’s had one said they would do it again and that their lives would have been much worse without it. Besides, they’re not legal people till, there’s a certificate of live birth.
But record numbers of actual living school kids killed, and movie patrons killed and wounded, hey, no big deal. “The Egg and I”, could easily be a summary of the contraception/abortion debate. BAN estrus! BAN tampons! Every egg is a human being only allow “periods” at the end of a sentence! Make women suffer, like “god”, okay, all those old Jews and whackos who wrote the books, intended.
Glenn McCoy has been long recognized by his peers as a superior cartoonist. Besides his editorial cartoons, he also creates the daily comic strips The Duplex and The Flying McCoys.

How many women would have died from botched back alley abortions or doesn’t that come into the equation? You don’t like abortions? DON’T HAVE ONE!

Fun fact, with a growing population pretty much every demographic will go up, that said the rate of which it occurs may go down
