    I think the growing change in opinion is likely based on and more stories and information about late stage abortions out there. I knew I didn’t think about them as much before Roe. However, it’s pretty obvious that the viability compromise is the real middle position with more people favoring no restrictions each day

      Indeed. The more unfortunate horror stories people will hear, the more Americans will be against limiting abortions.

        That’s how it always works. The fact is that no one wants a late stage abortion its the least worst choice

      People take the extreme since it’s hard to argue with. But in reality, it’s across the board better to leave it as an option in plenty of circumstances. You’re saving a life in technical terms, but by and large those kids will not be born into a good situation. And it will ruin their parents lives too.
