This is your opinion, not fact. The "innocent life" talking point is old and shown time and time again not to be a real concern since many "pro-life" advocates don't show that they give a damn about the babies once they are born by spending their time picketing or volunteering for causes which are beneficial to born children (e.g. a guaranteed health care plan for children, better adoption services and/or promotion of adoption services). An abortion is a medical procedure and is between a patient and her doctor as are all other medical procedures.

I would say that inability to care for a child (one of many reasons out there) is a good and rational reason to terminate a pregnancy. But I suppose that's just my opinion as well.
