Oh my.

Quote
NEW HAVEN, Conn., Jan. 21 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- On the eve of the 37th anniversary of the Supreme Court's decision in Roe v. Wade, which legalized abortion throughout the United States, a new survey shows a strong majority of Americans believe abortion to be "morally wrong."

"Millennials" (those 18-29) consider abortion to be "morally wrong" even more (58%) than Baby Boomers (those 45-64) (51%). Generation X (those 30-44) are similar to Millennials (60% see abortion as "morally wrong"). More than 6 in 10 of the Greatest Generation (those 65+) feel the same.....

The youngsters are more against it than the oldsters.

Not surprised at all at those percentages. The baby boomers are possibly the most selfish group of Americans ever and comeuppance is surely theirs. They will get old, be a burden on society, and choice (not theirs) will be exercised.

Yay Millennials!  Though, I though we were Generation Y...

I wonder if part of it might be that we've grown up seeing amazing advances in ultra sound technology.  Our parents saw blurry images, but we have the option of full 3-D ultrasounds that provide huge detail into the baby's development.  We can't pretend that it isn't really a baby.  Well, obviously some of us can, but there are idiots in every generation  :hammer:
