41% of NYC pregnancies end in abortion

[kwerk]

I'm not a big fan of NYC people to be honest so this can only be a good thing IMO. Still it's quite a shocking number. Does nobody use condoms??

ALWAYS USE A CONDOM. but it you want kids then there's no harm of piercing the condom heh?

Could do with most the people here having the abort.

If that is true, that is actually quite shocking. would make the whole place practically a dead baby factory!

Edit - about 690 abortions per 1000 other outcomes? Seems like an awful lot.

The fact that 41% of all pregnancies in New York City end in abortion is not a secret and it's not anything new.

In fact, things have been getting better over the past decade.

Not surprised because we all knew this apart from the OP.

I find it hard to believe that almost 1 in 2 pregnancies are being aborted in NY.

lol
I wonder do teen pregagncy figures compare with teen mother birth figures in the UK.

How many abort their snappers here?
I've truely no idea.

NYC figure does seem high, do they have to pay for that healthcare, or is it do with chemicals for the most part?

It sounds better when you say 4 in 10 are aborted but the figure is staggeringly high considering it is twice the national average.

Could be worse. Could end in being kicked down the stairs.

also apparently a link between abortions and a reduction in crime....

though mentioning that sort of stuff tends to get academics in trouble

Truly shocking, even when you're pro-abortion.

Better than having unwanted children and draining the social welfare system.
Who cares, they don't have feelings anyway.

 

[ScoTTyBEEE]

Better to be aborted than unloved imho.

wow, if you are a black baby you are three times more likely to be aborted by your mother than if you are a white baby, according to that piece.
