Finally, concerned pro-choice advocates who claim that treating the unborn as persons would spell the collapse of civilization seem ignorant of history. Abortion was illegal in the United States through most of our history, and during that time there were no miscarriage investigation squads, no secret police monitoring pregnant women, and no government officials counting fetuses in censuses. There were only law enforcement officers who would arrest rogue abortion providers, which seems rational if the unborn are human beings whom abortion kills.
