Most Americans Want Pro-Life Laws

A new Harris poll "finds a plurality of Americans want all or most abortions to be illegal and overwhelming majorities of Americans want more abortion limits in law."

Pro-choicers dislike polls (at least, where abortion is concerned) because most people understand why abortion should be severely restricted. Despite the arguments abortion supporters present, there hasn't been a poll yet where people consider unfettered abortion till (or, in Barack Obama's case, after) birth to be a good thing.

The nationwide poll showed just 9 percent said abortion should be legal for any reason at any time during pregnancy -- Barack Obama's position.

The Harris survey included 2,341 adults and was conducted December 10-12.

It found 82 percent of Americans said abortion should either be illegal under all circumstances or would limit its legality.

More specifically, 49 percent of those polled took a pro-life position wanting all abortions made illegal (11 percent) or wanting almost all abortions illegal except for very rare cases of saving the mothers life or in rape or incest (38 percent).

I wonder if there were any questions about why the participants hate women and want to punish them?
