Pro-abortion progressives claim that making abortion illegal will only lead to more “back alley” abortions and that more abortions will be performed by non-medical professionals. But the possibility of something occurring despite it being illegal isn’t justification for legalizing it.
The “back alley” pro-abortion argument is founded on faulty logic. Making abortion illegal will protect both the mother and the child. Making abortion legal will not protect anyone.
