Hateful #Impregnation or Joyful #Pregnancy? @Lawrence sees it one way, @GregAbbott_TX sees it another | @LiveAction #HealthResearchFunding @HumanLifeintnL @StatistaCharts @AmerLifeLeague
I discuss 'something like that' in a paying discussion you can access through 'the emboldened link(s)' below; you can earn some money by contributing on that forum, but first I want to teach you about those words. And I find you understand words better if you see 'the words at their base' (then going on to look at the words at those words' bases, then the words at those words' bases, etc.-etc. ad infinitum into their Foundation)
The word “Pregnancy” is built on ancient words that mean "Before giving Birth (|Begetting), With Child, |Pithy, |Ready, |Capable" (or some senses that mean "to Press, Hold Fast, Cover, Crowd, |Compress").

Abortion either 'is Given the Wrong Reputation,' or it EARNED 'the Wrong Reputation'
The other night, the stern announcement of MSNBC's O'Donnell was that--in Texas (and several other States)--'12-year-old girls who are impregnated by their fathers will have to give birth to their sisters.' http://youtu.be/9hnwe8qC2NA THAT is why (O'Donnell tells us, as many have said before) abortion should still be legal (under the careful watch of licensed medical professionals). 'But why haven't we heard this huge objection before?' I asked. And I looked at some statistics, and found out 'it's because it DOESN'T APPLY to 99%+ of abortions!' The reason-why the abortion-laws don't make an exception for the several-thousand females that will thus have to carry the invasive children? The Governor of Texas touched on it when he said (in response to a question about his reason for not including that exception), "We're just gonna catch all the rapists!" (I'm tempted to take down the statistics-image & put in one of a cowboy celebratin' with guns a-blazin' ... yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee-hoo!) Obviously, there's no way Texas lawmen are just gonna swoop out there and intercept all 19,000-some rapists before the violators impregnate their victims; but what might be 'a better way of making the no-exception case' is to say that, "If we make a law saying abortion's okay for rape-victims, we're essentially LICENSING rape!"
Searching for the statistics to back up either O'Donnell or Abbott, I--at the top of the search 'abortion rape statistics,' I think--found
