[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone know what % of abortion  are because of "Rape" or something bad that happens?[/quote]

What's your definition of "bad"?

Rape - bad
Incest - bad
Abusive partner - bad
Birth control pills were tampered or did not work - bad
Condom broke - bad
Ectopic pregnancy - bad
Miscarriage - bad
Fetal abnormalities not consistent with life - bad

You're probably looking at 70%+ of abortions covered by that list of "bad" scenarios. This is why trying to legislate a list of carve-outs is a dumb idea. You can't possibly cover every scenario. [/quote]

Rape - bad
Incest - bad
[b]Abusive partner - should leave partner [/b]
Birth control pills were tampered or did not work - gift from god 
Condom broke - gift from god

And if she has to share custody with the partner? Leave vulnerable children with him? Many, many women make the choice to stay in an abusive relationship to be there to protect the children.

Would you like some stories of women and/or children who died at the hands of a man who snapped when she left him? Hell, this woman even had a restraining order, but the police CHOSE not to enforce it. They can do that -- there is no duty to protect.

The modified order gave respondent's husband the right to spend time with his three daughters (ages 10, 9, and 7) on alternate weekends, for two weeks during the summer, and, " 'upon reasonable notice,' " for a mid-week dinner visit " 'arranged by the parties' "; the modified order also allowed him to visit the home to collect the children for such "parenting time." Id., at 1097 (majority opinion).

According to the complaint, at about 5 or 5:30 p.m. on Tuesday, June 22, 1999, respondent's husband took the three daughters while they were playing outside the family home. No advance arrangements had been made for him to see the daughters that evening. When respondent noticed the children were missing, she suspected her husband had taken them. At about 7:30 p.m., she called the Castle Rock Police Department, which dispatched two officers. The complaint continues: "When [the officers] arrived ... , she showed them a copy of the TRO and requested that it be enforced and the three children be returned to her immediately. [b][The officers] stated that there was nothing they could do about the TRO and suggested that [respondent] call the Police Department again if the three children did not return home by 10:00 p.m." [/b]App. to Pet. for Cert. 126a.2

At approximately 8:30 p.m., respondent talked to her husband on his cellular telephone. He told her "he had the three children [at an] amusement park in Denver." Ibid. [b]She called the police again and asked them to "have someone check for" her husband or his vehicle at the amusement park and "put out an [all points bulletin]" for her husband[/b], but the officer with whom she spoke "refused to do so," again telling her to "wait until 10:00 p.m. and see if " her husband returned the girls. Id., at 126a-127a.

At approximately 10:10 p.m., respondent called the police and said her children were still missing, but [b]she was now told to wait until midnight[/b]. She called at midnight and told the dispatcher her children were still missing. She went to her husband's apartment and, finding nobody there, called the police at 12:10 a.m.; she was told to wait for an officer to arrive. When none came, [b]she went to the police station at 12:50 a.m. and submitted an incident report. The officer who took the report "made no reasonable effort to enforce the TRO or locate the three children. Instead, he went to dinner."[/b] Id., at 127a.

At approximately 3:20 a.m., respondent's husband arrived at the police station and opened fire with a semiautomatic handgun he had purchased earlier that evening. Police shot back, killing him. [b][u]Inside the cab of his pickup truck, they found the bodies of all three daughters, whom he had already murdered.[/u][/b] Ibid.
